JUNE UPDATE – Good News - A SAVAGE BATTLELORDS UPDATE
10 months ago – Wed, Jun 21, 2023 at 12:29:32 PM

A SAVAGE BATTLELORDS UPDATE

If you'd like to grab any of the Savage Battlelords items, including the cards and poker chips, you can jump over to the Pre-Order Store for our Savage Battlelords Kickstarter, which is here: https://savage-battlelords.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders

The Books

Books have completed printing and are on a slow boat somewhere between Eastern Europe and Boston. Once they arrive in the U.S. they will be freighted to our fulfillment house in Tennessee. Books destined for EU, UK, and Australasia have already been sent to our UK fulfillment house.

Savage Battlelords (Core Rules, Carnage Companion, Alliance Setting Guide)

The Cards

The Battlelords-themed poker cards have completed printing and have arrived here! The box is designed to look like a Balshrom Science Corp. energy magazine (E-Mag) for an energy weapon.

GEN CON Indy 2023

We will be exhibitors and event runners at Gen Con 2023 in Indianapolis, Indiana on August 3-6th, 2023. We will have the Battlelords-themed playing cards, poker chips, and other goodies that you can’t get outside of our Kickstarters available at the con. Our booth number is 3040 and the exhibit hall map is here: https://files.gencon.com/2023.ExhibitHallMap.pdf

You can find Battlelords events at GenCon here: https://www.gencon.com/events?search=battlelords

Event attendees will get custom Battlelords swag!

Project Development

The new Savage Battlelords project will likely be Uncle Ernie’s A.R.M. Summer Catalog. A collection of Hostile Alien Lifeforms (HALS) for your characters to wrestle with and be eaten by!

DELIVERY

We are still shooting for getting all of the books, accessories, and add-ons to our fulfillment houses by the end of August.  Gen Con takes a big bite out of schedule every year, and we hope to hall all the pieces in place (no pun intended) before we leave for the con. Shipping times from the fulfilment house will vary depending on your location. 

Thanks for your continued patience.

April Update
about 1 year ago – Wed, Apr 12, 2023 at 09:39:39 AM

International orders shipping

The last of the UK, EU, and Australian orders are shipping. We apologize for the delay. We ran into multiple roadblocks with fulfillment and customs. About half of the UK, Germany, and Australia orders are in transit now. Other international orders are waiting for the carrier to pick them up.  There is one order headed to Finland that has been blocked by customs. We will contact that backer directly.

Customs Snafu

IF you’re an international (non-US) backer who ordered a dice bag from us, UK customs took Umbridge at the inclusion of real firearms cartridges being used in their construction – despite the fact that they had been drilled (TWICE – once vertically and once horizontally) to permanently render them useless. As a result they were removed from the bags. To make up for this we have included a Battlelords-themed toe-tag in the bag with your order. If you would rather have a refund please contact us.

Warmonger’s Guide 2 POD

Warmonger’s Guide 2: Rusty Medal will be available again soon in hardcopy on DriveThruRPG via their print on demand service. We’ll let everyone know when it’s live.

Battlelords Playing Cards Proofs have Arrived

If you’re interested in some battlelords-themed playing cards, hop on over to our Savage Battlelords kickstarter pre-order store and grab yourself some. The proofs arrived yesterday and they look great! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/23c/savage-battlelords

Battlelords Combat Map!

We’re also printing our asteroid base map so you can inflict property damage while doing “merc stuff” inside this stone town! You can pick up a copy at our Savage Battlelords pre-order store. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/23c/savage-battlelords

Future Products

WE have some future projects in the pipeline. The first is a version of Uncle Ernie’s Minion’s of Doom for 7th edition and Savage Battlelords. Our working title for this book is the A.R.M. Summer Catalog. This book will detail about 50 hostile alien lifeforms (HALS). We’re also working on some species guide books, with the first being about the Orions, the Phentari, and a new (to 7th edition) species, the Furbls! More news soon!

GEN CON INDY 2023

Don’t forget that we’ll be both an exhibitor and an event runner at this year’s Gen Con in Indianapolis. We’ll have some convention exclusive merch there, so be sure to check us out. We’ll also be running both classic Battlelords and Savage Battlelords events, so be sure to check the event guide when it goes live on gencon.com

Shipping Delays finally resolved for UK/EU/Asia/Australia
about 1 year ago – Tue, Mar 07, 2023 at 01:25:58 PM

We wanted to give our fans overseas an update on the shipping delays for Fully Armored. Due to an unfortunate serious of events there was a substantial delay in getting the books to our fulfillment house in the UK. This has now been resolved, and the books are on their way to the UK where they will be distributed to our backers in the UK, the EU, Asia, and Australia.

The prior Battlelords books were printed in Europe, pre-Brexit, and pre-covid. There were many unforeseen changes that occurred since our last book that required us to jump through some hoops (new customs numbers applied for, fulfillment house difficulties, import snafus, etc.) to get the books into the UK.

We apologize for the delay and appreciate your continued patience.

Hardcopy sighted in the Wild!
over 1 year ago – Mon, Dec 19, 2022 at 05:13:39 PM

Something epic showed up in the mail today! I think this is probably the nicest looking book we’ve done to date. Keep checking your mailbox!

GOOD NEWS!
over 1 year ago – Fri, Dec 09, 2022 at 02:54:24 PM

The vast majority of our Kickstarter add-ons have been produced. We are only waiting on the T-shirts and a couple dice bags. Rather than make our backers wait, we are going to ship what we have so far to our fulfillment house, so they can start getting orders out the door to backers ASAP. 

Backers in the U.S. will receive their orders first, simply because they're closer to our primary fulfillment house.  Backers in Europe, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and Asia can expect their orders to arrive in the next month or so as the product reaches the fulfillment houses near in/near those countries. 

We will ship the T-shirts and remaining dice bags directly to the backers that order them – on our dime – when they are finished. There will be no additional shipping costs, and we apologize to those backers who order shirts and dice bags about the delay. Please note that vast majority of dice bags are completed and will be shipping with the books.

Thank you for your support on this Kickstarter! We couldn’t have done it without you!

Lock-‘n’-Load!
