Latest Updates from Our Project:

Campaign Complete!
7 months ago – Fri, Mar 08, 2024 at 11:37:12 AM

Our most-funded project yet – all thanks to you! 

Despite rough seas towards the end (technical issues temporarily stopping pledges, and a 24-hour campaign extension), the Map Library has officially made it safely into port! During our month-long Kickstarter voyage, 3,028 backers have come aboard the project, helping us unlock ALL NINE stretch goals.

The Map Library is officially our most-funded project of all time, which is absolutely INCREDIBLE. Your support helps us create the very best tools for your tabletop, and we are super excited that the Map Library will now be joining that collection.

This leg of our voyage may be over, but we're ready to step into the next stages of our expedition. Here's a quick overview of where the compass leads next...

Early release map

Firstly, we were EXTREMELY excited to unlock our £250,000 stretch goal!! Look out for a backer-only update in the next few days, where we'll share the winning battle map and one-shot.

Pledge management

Over the next couple of weeks, Kickstarter will begin charging your cards and processing your pledges. If for any reason your card is declined, you'll have 7 days to fix the payment before they try again (if there are still problems, this can usually be fixed in the pledge manager via PayPal).

Later this month, we will be sending out our pledge manager. Here, we'll collect your shipping details and payment, and a few other key bits of info from you – there's also an opportunity to add extra rewards to your pledge in the Add-On Store. 

IMPORTANT: If your pledge includes a digital PDF of One-Shot Wonders, make sure you complete your pledge manager promptly. These files will be fulfilled in April 2024 to backers who fill out their pledge managers within 2 weeks of them being sent out. Any backer who misses the cut-off date will have their One-Shot Wonders PDF delivered at the same time as the Map Library digital fulfilment in October 2024.

We'll be in touch with exact dates for the pledge manager (including digital fulfilment cut-off dates) soon.

Project updates 

As the project progresses, we'll post regular updates about development, refinement and production. We expect to begin digital fulfilment in October 2024 and physical fulfilment in January 2025. If there are any changes to these delivery dates, we will let you know in an update.

You can also follow the development of the project on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Discord and sign up to the Roll & Play Press newsletter (where you'll receive a free random table every month).

Until then...

That just leaves one final thank you from the whole team! We're so excited to make the Map Library a reality, and incredibly grateful for all your support. 

Sam, Kay, Beth, Pasha and Anni.

A Nail-Biting Finish, and a 24-Hour Campaign Extension
7 months ago – Thu, Mar 07, 2024 at 11:58:06 AM

Hi everyone,

Thanks so much for your support throughout the Map Library campaign, it has been nothing short of incredible, and we've even managed to hit our final stretch goal of £250,000!! That's amazing, and a huge milestone.

Campaign End Extension

You might have noticed... the campaign isn't over just yet. The clear skies and calm seas we hoped for as we docked this ship turned into a raging storm of technical issues. Backers on the platform were unable to pledge for a significant length of time during the project's final hours, scuppering one of the most important moments in our campaign. Worst of all, many disappointed backers reached out to us, worried that they had missed their chance as they had no way to pledge.

The good news is, our campaign is now extended by another 24 hours – so, we're leaving nobody behind! We're going to man the rigging and release the main sails one more time, and well and truly dock this magnificent vessel of a Kickstarter campaign tomorrow.

Tell your friends this is their last (LAST) chance to back the Map Library!

See you tomorrow,

Sam.

Less than 40 copies left! One-Shot Wonders Collector's Edition
8 months ago – Tue, Mar 05, 2024 at 05:27:58 AM

Hi everyone,

The Collector's Edition copies of One-Shot Wonders are going quickly!

We originally set aside 100 of these very special books for this project, and there are less than 40 remaining. If you were planning on adding one of these to your pledge rewards, now is the time to do it! 

The Collector's Edition of One-Shot Wonders contains all the same great session-planning content as the regular edition, with a stunning faux-leather cover, gilded page edges and a ribbon marker. Only 1,000 of these limited editions were printed, and they will never be reproduced. 

If we do have any remaining stock, these copies will be carried over to the pledge manager. However, we can't predict how quickly these copies might go as we enter the final few days of the campaign.

How to add a Collector's Edition to your pledge

Head over to the main campaign page and click 'Manage My Pledge'. It's here you'll be able to add the Collector's Edition of One-Shot Wonders to your pledge rewards in the Add-Ons section.

If your pledge level includes a copy of the One-Shot Wonders book, but you would like to upgrade the book to a Collector's Edition, I would recommend swapping your pledge to a level that doesn't include One-Shot Wonders, then adding the Collector's Edition as an add-on in the Add-Ons section of 'Manage My Pledge'.

If you're one of the lucky 100 who grabs a copy, drop us a 🐙 emoji in the comments! 

One-Shot Wonders Fulfilment

A number of backers have asked when their copy of One-Shot Wonders will be fulfilled as part of this Kickstarter campaign, so here's a bit more information on that.

One-Shot Wonders Digital PDFs

Digital PDFs of One-Shot Wonders will be fulfilled in April 2024 to backers who fill out their pledge managers within 2 weeks of them being sent out. Any backer who misses the cut-off date will have their One-Shot Wonders PDF delivered at the same time as the Map Library digital fulfilment in October 2024. We'll send around more details on the pledge manager (and cut-off dates) in the coming weeks.

One-Shot Wonders Physical Books

Physical copies of the book will be fulfilled at the same time as your Map Library pledge rewards (estimated January 2025).

If you have any questions about anything mentioned above, reach out to us via Kickstarter comment/message or email. As always, we'll be happy to help!

All the best,

Beth.
