Let the "Summer of Ahoy" Begin!
Next Weekend: We'll be at UK Games Expo running demos of Arcs and Ahoy! Our fans across the pond will have the first opportunity to take the new Ahoy factions for a spin. Find us at stand 3A-102 with All About Games!
Romp with Lord of the Board! Did you know we have a podcast?? Hosts-with-the-mosts, Matt Martens and Hunter Donaldson will be talking all things Leder, every week!

The ships carrying the Ahoy expansion goodies are scheduled to arrive in ports in just a few days.
What does this mean?
First, we'll be locking down addresses! Addresses will lock on Friday March 21st. A 48-hour final notice email reminder will be sent on Wednesday March 19th.
Second, we are hopeful that we can begin fulfillment in all regions in April!
How do I update my address?
If you need to update your address, you can do so on your Backerkit account which can be accessed using your email address here.
Updating your address after the lockdown on the 28th will require you to email us at [email protected] for assistance.
I'm moving, what address should I use?
We recommend that you use addresses valid between the months of April and May 2025 for all regions. If you are in the midst of moving during this time, we recommend using your newer address or, if possible, to use a friend or family member’s address, just in case.

Ahoy Expansions Complete and Packed! | Card Charging Date: January 31, 2025
Ahoy Expansions are Ready to Set Sail!
Ahoy: Rivals & Renegades and Ahoy: Fang & Fortune are packed up at the factory and preparing for loading/shipping. Soon they'll be on their way to our various warehouse partners, and then on their way to you! Look forward to updates on arrival times in the future. This also means it's time to lock down all our surveys, and charging cards on file for add-ons and shipping costs.
On Friday January 31, 2025, we will be locking all surveys on Backerkit and charging cards on file for add-ons and shipping costs. After this date, you will no longer be able to add or remove items from your pledge without emailing us directly for manual assistance.
Please note that if you already paid for your pledge during the crowdfunding campaign, Backerkit will still need to charge you for your associated shipping costs. Shipping costs will be reflected in your Backerkit account page.
We will not be locking addresses until we are closer to our fulfillment date, so you will still be able to update and change your addresses on file. We will communicate the planned address lock down date once we are closer to that point and can provide a more solidified timeline. A campaign update will be posted at least two weeks ahead to communicate the address lockdown date, and you will receive a 48-hour automatic notice from Backerkit.
The MPCs are Here!
In the last update we made a flippant joke about the MPCs being delivered by Santa Claus ... and the MPCs arrived on Christmas Eve. Here are some additional photos! If you want to see more componentry, watch the VoD of this month's Studio Chat with Nick.

Hey backers! It's been a minute since we updated, and things have been busy.
We've been anxiously waiting for the MPCs (Mass Production Copies) of the expansions to arrive at the studio for review. We were expecting it in early December ... and we're still waiting. 🥲 Could it be that Santa will drop it off this Christmas Eve? (Troublesome, as the studio does not have a chimney.)
We do have some photos of the MPCs from the factory!
We can't wait to show y'all the details once the MPCs arrive, so look forward to an update here in the new year with details! We'll also be talking about the timeline for the coming months. Mark your calendars for the January Studio Chat (January 14th, 2PM CST on Twitch!) to see the MPCs live! (Or catch the recording on our YouTube channel later that week.)
What else has been going on?
We had a great time showing off Ahoy and the PPC copies of the expansion content at PAX Unplugged earlier this month. There was a lot of interest in the base game, and excitement about the new content to come.
Wishing you a wonderful rest of 2024! We'll be spending a couple weeks with family & friends, recharging for 2025. Stay healthy, and play some games!
Questions or Other Support Help? Please email us at [email protected] for any questions or assistance. The Studio will be closed beginning December 21st through the end of the year! If you have questions or need adjustments to your pledge, we will address those emails after our return on January 6, 2025. We appreciate your patience, and hope you have a great rest of the year!
Hey everybody, “All aboard” backer here. I received my expansion material with no core game and saw that we were getting 2 wave shipping.
I have been patiently waiting, then I hear from the ROMP podcast that base game was supposed to have shipped first. Can anyone confirm this?
