Project FAQ
After the campaign is over, you will receive a survey asking for your address. We will use that to calculate your shipping costs and then charge that to you before we ship in addition to your pledge.
You can change or cancel your pledge any time up until the campaign closes. After that, you can't make any changes and there are no refunds.
We're a small operation, so we print enough to cover the crowdfunding campaign and that's it. We'll send some copies over to the good folks at Goodman Games for them to sell in their store, but we aren't planning any retail distribution. If you want a print copy of Whistlepig Breakdown, now is the time to buy.
Whistlepig Breakdown is a 30-page full-sized 8.5" x 11" saddle stitched book.
Dungeon Crawl Classics is a fantasy tabletop roleplaying game that combines a modern gaming sensibility with a throwback aesthetic. Find out more at www.goodman-games.com.
The Shudder Mountains is an Appalachian-themed fantasy world created by Michael Curtis for the Dungeon Crawl Classics roleplaying system. It was inspired by the "Silver John" stories by American author, Manly Wade Wellman.
BackerKit FAQ
BackerKit Crowdfunding is an all-or-nothing collaborative funding platform. Creators share their project ideas and set a funding goal with a deadline. Backers pledge money to help make the project possible.
If the project meets its goal by the deadline, pledges are charged and the creator moves forward. If it doesn’t, no one is charged.
Backers often receive special rewards for their support, such as:
- Exclusive products
- Bonus rewards for backing related projects
- Discount pricing
- Behind-the-scenes updates
- Creative input opportunities
Pledging in crowdfunding is a commitment to support the creation of a new product or project. Unlike a traditional purchase, you're not buying an item that already exists. Instead, your contribution helps bring a creative idea to life, and in return, you typically receive rewards (such as the product itself) as a thank you for your early support.
- Select a pledge level with the reward(s) you would like to receive
- Select any add-ons
- Confirm your pledge!
- You are charged only if the campaign meets its funding goal.
- Charges happen when the campaign ends, not when you pledge.
The creator will send you a survey to:
- Ask you for more information about your rewards (selecting options, etc)
- Collect shipping information
- Offer additional items you may want to add to your pledge
- Collect shipping fees (if applicable)
The survey will be sent to the email address we have on file with your pledge. Additional payments are charged when you complete the survey.
Only the project creator and the BackerKit Support Team can see your pledge and contact information. Other backers and the public cannot see your individual pledge amount or personal details.
You can change or adjust your pledge level and add-ons before the campaign ends. After the project concludes, cancellations or changes are at the creator's discretion and may depend on what stage the project is in.
Overtime Mode extends your campaign past its original end time to give backers a final chance to make their pledge. It will add an additional 10 minutes past the end time as long as pledges keep coming in. The campaign will end when there is a 10-minute period without any new pledges.
