Dungeon Craft Series Three: Two New Terrain Books For D&D

Holiday Cheers and DC3 Shipping Insights for 2024
about 1 year ago – Fri, Dec 15, 2023 at 04:46:26 PM

Hey Backers!

As the holiday season approaches, we want to provide you with an update on the status of the DC3 shipment. Unfortunately, customs has not supplied any new information, and as a result, we do not anticipate receiving updates until 2024. Although we are unable to provide a new estimated shipping date at this time, we hope to establish a new fulfillment timeline in January 2024. With the updated timeline, you will have a clearer idea of when to expect DC3.

Our journey with Dungeon Craft 3 has experienced its share of challenges, but we remain optimistic for the coming year. Despite the obstacles faced, we are hopeful that 2024 will bring smoother progress.

For the holiday season, we wish you joy and safe travels. We look forward to seeing you all again in the new year!

Warm regards,

1985 Games Team

The Holiday Season Is Almost Here!
about 1 year ago – Thu, Nov 30, 2023 at 04:40:58 PM

Hey Backers!

With the holiday season quickly approaching here in the United States, we understand the anticipation to receive your DC3 rewards. Regrettably, due to the customs delays and the upcoming holidays, we anticipate that we won't have a shipping update until the New Year. We want to assure you that we're doing everything in our power to expedite the process and get your rewards to you as soon as possible.

In our previous update, we mentioned that the DM screens and journals are on their way. As of now, they have not yet arrived. We anticipate their arrival shortly, and we promise to share photos as soon as they are in-house. We look forward to sharing their arrival with you!

Before the holiday season, we have one more scheduled update. We hope to have more information for you then!

Warm regards,

1985 Games Team

Updated Fulfillment Timeline
about 3 years ago – Mon, Jan 24, 2022 at 01:47:30 PM

Hey, all. 

As you’ve probably gathered from today’s subject line, fulfillment on Dungeon Craft: Series 3 has been delayed. Between paper shortages, factory waitlists, and delays in sample shipping, this process is taking significantly longer than expected. While we are more than happy to answer any questions about the current global situation, Quackalope did a much better job of explaining it than we ever could. Check out their video here. 

Current Fulfillment Timeline - as of 1/21/22

Our current estimates suggest that we will have our final print samples in hand by March, and we will keep you in the loop between now and then with regular, bi-weekly updates featuring production news and finished art reveals. 

Once we have approved these final print samples, everything will be full-steam ahead. We expect production to wrap up in May. After that, it will take 1-2 weeks for your pledges to be processed and picked up for freight. Once DC3 hits the high seas, we will share an updated schedule of ETAs by region. 

For now, we estimate an early August arrival worldwide – just before Gencon! However, since our last container sat on a boat for 45 days, we will be keeping a close eye on things to ensure that this timeline remains accurate. 

As a quick note to everyone who pledged for miniatures on this campaign, those will be fulfilled sooner and shipped to you separately. We will share more precise timelines for that as we get closer to the ship date. 

We appreciate your continued patience and support. If there’s any type of content that you’d like to see us share during the waiting weeks ahead, please let us know down in the comments. More stretch goal sneak peeks, maybe? 

Mini Proofs, Sample Progress, and More Snow Pages!
about 3 years ago – Thu, Dec 16, 2021 at 10:13:42 PM

Hey, all!

We'll keep it short and sweet today and let the pictures do the talking. First up, we're excited to share that mini production is moving along nicely. Our master prints came in the other day and all we can say is...GIANT CRAB!! 🦀

Next on the agenda is accessories. We've been going back and forth with the manufacturer for our journals, cards, and DM screens for a few iterations now to fix printing errors and refine the samples to top-notch status. After our most recent round of proofs and the waitlist finally starting to clear, we hope to start full production very soon.

Finally, just a little seasonal fun from our Snow Add-On Pack. So, this scene is dramatically different depending on the level of snowmelt. Mid-winter? Picturesque. Stately. Maybe mildly terrifying, but in that good Galadriel way. Right?

See, the problem arises when your players get too close, stumble on something solid, or really just cast a fireball within fifty feet. Yep, this is going to be fun!

What story arc would you come up with to continue the action post-zombie/popsicle discovery?

Interior Design 101 🏡 (Or, A Building Pack Preview)
about 3 years ago – Mon, Nov 08, 2021 at 12:47:31 PM

Hey, all!

Who's ready to kick off the weekend with another terrain pack preview? After our last chilly share,  we thought we'd head inside to warm up with a peek at our Empty Building & Furnishings.  We'll be back in a week or so with a quick production update but for now, let's embrace our inner interior designers and get to building some player death traps (er, dwellings? 🤔). 

With both of our add-on packs now covered, what should we cover next? Any favorite stretch goal you want to catch a glimpse at before your pledge arrives?

Have a great weekend!
