Quick Fulfillment Update
Spiral Galaxy was scheduled to receive the remaining stock from Poland on Friday and told me that they would resume fulfillment this coming week. I want to reassure you that you will receive your backer rewards. Our apologies again for the delay.

I've been able to get this to the table for a couple of sessions and wanted to share some of the things I really like about this product: 1) The terrain has been great. This is the real pleasant surprise. I would never have bought terrain bits if it didn't come included. I normally just draw on a wipe clean sheet of grid paper but have really enjoyed getting an encounter set up on the table for the start of a session as a wow when the players walk in. It has also been nice for a dungeon crawl to get out a section at a time with the props. 2) Having such a range of figures means you I finally have what I need for each encounter. Before I would steer encounters towards the models I had available (goblins, undead, elves, humans, dogs etc.). Now I can think up the encounter and normally find a figure to suit. Also, some of the figures have worked as inspiration for encounters with some fun characters coming from the different colour pallets used. This makes it easy to pick out an elite enemy or leader from the pack of grunts. 3) the organisation is great though things do still take a while to get out and sort back into their spaces. I also couldn't fit everything in when I bought the undead expansion pack so my mercenaries sit in a separate baggie. All in all I'm really pleased with this product, even more than I thought I would be. Cheers and hope everyone else is having as much fun.

Project Update: 58 - Fulfillment Update

We wanted to share a quick snapshot of where things stand on fulfillment and what the next few weeks are likely to look like.

Poland → UK Shipment
The remaining palletized shipment in Poland is scheduled to be picked up today. Transit time is typically around 4–5 days once it’s moving, followed by customs clearance on the UK side. As always, customs timing is the least predictable part of the process, but this shipment represents the final major hurdle for completing outstanding UK/EU orders.

Based on current estimates, we’re anticipating that we’ll be able to finish up the remainder of outstanding orders in early February. As soon as we have confirmation on delivery and customs clearance, we’ll post a more precise update.

Asia/PAC Fulfillment (Aetherworks)
We’ve signed a deal with Aetherworks for distribution and fulfillment in Asia/PAC, and are expecting to receive an initial order estimate from Aetherworks toward the end of the month. Once that’s in hand, we’ll pack and ship product to them for regional fulfillment.

That shipment will include:
  • Hardwood dice trays (for backers)
  • Replacement parts for Asia/PAC backers
  • Additional product to support retail availability in those regions

This will allow us to resolve outstanding replacement needs while also establishing local inventory for ongoing fulfillment.

Vault Online Tool
Work continues on the Vault online tool. The goal remains to have something ready for a limited beta preview in February. This initial version will focus on core functionality, with more polish and features to follow once it’s in real-world use.

As always, thank you for your continued patience. International fulfillment is a game of dependencies and sequencing, but we’re closing in on the final stretch and will keep you posted as each piece locks into place.

Onward,
Mike, Lane, Chris, and Marshall

Project Update: 57 - Hitting the Ground Running in the New Year

The new year is here, and we are back at it.

Before the holidays, we had all remaining product in Poland packed up. That shipment is now staged and preparing for pickup, with its destination being Spiral Galaxy in the UK. At this point, we do not yet have a confirmed pickup or delivery timeline. As soon as we receive firm information, we will post it here immediately. Holiday schedules and year-end shutdowns made communication slower than any of us would like, but those channels are reopening now and conversations are actively moving again. That product will complete the remaining orders for fulfillment in the UK/EU. So if you haven't received your backer rewards this is the reason it is delayed.

We are also planning two outbound shipments from the US. One shipment will head to Spiral Galaxy to support ongoing UK and EU fulfillment, and the other will go to Aetherworks to support ongoing Asia/Pacific fulfillment. Once these hubs are stocked, we will be able to cover new purchases through our online store in those regions as well as address any additional missing items or replacement needs.

I want to clearly set expectations on replacements: damage replacements outside the US are not possible until additional product is physically delivered to these two fulfillment hubs. As frustrating as that is, it is the only responsible way for us to handle international logistics without creating excessive delays or costs.

I also want to acknowledge the backlog of emails many of you are waiting on. The combination of the holidays and year-end house keeping slowed response times more than I’m comfortable with. I’m working through messages as quickly and carefully as I can, and I appreciate your patience while things get fully back up to speed.

Thank you, as always, for sticking with us. We are focused on execution, regional coverage, and getting everything back on track as quickly as possible.

Onward,
Mike, Lane, Chris, and Marshall

Hey guys, I've been trying to figure out who to get into contact with as Aetherworks says it's VR 3PF, but I can't contact them. I've had some damage from shipping, and some of the sheets have cut outs that go through the line work - please help! Who do I talk to for this?
