Project Update: March Update: Locking Orders and Digital Rewards
Hello everyone,
We're still waiting for an update on the physical samples, so no pictures for you yet. In the meantime, we wanted to talk a little about the next steps that'll be happening over the next few weeks.
Locking Orders and Collecting Add-On Charges
First, we're going to be locking orders and charging credit cards for the add-ons & preorders. You should have a 48-hour notice about locking orders from Backerkit soon (if not already). If you have any changes you want to make to your order (e.g., adding or removing add-ons), that 48 hours will be the window for you. If you haven't filled out your survey yet (about 5% of you have yet to do so), your order won't lock until after you complete the survey.
We'll then charge credit cards for add-ons and preorders next week (Wed, Mar 20). As a reminder, this charge will not include shipping charges; we will be collecting those much closer to fulfillment in order to capture the most accurate shipping rates possible. We expect our shipping rate tables to be set and locked in by the end of April and shipping charges collected by the end of May for our June/July fulfillment window.
Also, as part of the process of locking orders and charging cards, we will be closing the Backerkit Preorder Store (located here: https://five-hundred-year-old-vampire.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders). For those wishing to still get their hands on FYOV after the Preorder Store closes, we have Five Hundred Year Old Vampire available for preorder on our main press website. If you have any friends interested, send them here: https://cmichpress.com/product/five-hundred-year-old-vampire/.
Digital Rewards
Second, once orders have been locked, we will be distributing the FYOV Print & Play pdf files to you. For backers who have it as part of a reward tier, it'll be available once we lock your order. For those who preordered it, it'll become available to you after we have collected your payment.
The print & play files consist of eight pdfs consisting of the five core card decks (Rebirth, Neophyte, Elder, Ancient, and Conclusions), the Prime Vampire card deck by Tim Hutchings, the game manual, and the printable pregen character sheets (as well as blank character and cohort sheets).
After that. we hope to have the Curriculum Guide available for distribution as well, but as that is still in layout, we don't exactly know when that will be yet.

Be on the lookout for some emails from Backerkit about locking orders and charging cards.
Stay safe, everyone!
