about 4 years ago
– Wed, Feb 12, 2020 at 02:23:54 PM
First, the big news: The last of the U.S. rewards are packed and shipping out today. Please watch your email for tracking information! If you are a U.S. backer and have not received your rewards by February 24th, or if you come across any packing errors, please email [email protected] for support. We ask that you wait until February 24th before contacting us, just to give the FedEx system time to process and deliver packages.
International rewards are in the packing stage of the process. We'll report when we've shipped the boxes to our fulfillment partners in other nations.
The latest issue of Hexagram is now funding on Kickstarter and this is your chance to join in the fun! This newest issue comes in at 36 pages and is the same physical size as the earlier three issues of the zine. It is also very, very close to ready for print; we should see a printer proof of the new issue tomorrow.
Join Hexagram #4 today!

Shipping Update, More Metal Dice, and Hexagram #4
about 4 years ago
– Thu, Feb 06, 2020 at 09:12:45 PM
The latest news on Decks of Destiny shipping:
- United States - The Warehouse 23 team reports that they're down to the last few dozen of the U.S. rewards to pack and ship. Unfortunately, the team is waiting on a shipment of one title and cannot ship the last of the U.S. rewards until the restock of the missing book arrives next week. We are sorry that these last of the U.S. packages are delayed while we wait for the missing book to arrive. We'll ship the last packages out just as soon as we can.
- International - Packing has started for the international rewards. What happens is all packages are assembled here in Austin, and then the boxes are shipped to our partners in Canada, Australia, and the UK for fulfillment elsewhere. We will post another update once all international rewards leave our warehouse and head to our fulfillment partners.
You Wanted More Dice?
For those of you asking about getting more of the metal dragon and wizard dice, we've opened a pre-order store on BackerKit that includes these dice . . . and many others! Orders will ship in March and now is your chance to get more of all sorts of dice, including our new Meeple D6 Dice Sets, Kitten D6 Dice Sets, and even a number of different dice bags.
Preorder dice today!
NOTE: The dice store is only open to U.S. gamers.
Hexagram #4
On Monday, February 10, we're launching the Kickstarter campaign for the next Hexagram issue. You can click the "notify me" button on this page and Kickstarter will email you when the campaign goes live. This one will run for a single week and there are no stretch goals: If the goal is met, the zine will be the same length as the three earlier issues.
NOTE: Hexagram #4 international shipments will be sent from Warehouse 23. Backers will be responsible for any taxes and fees that their nations may charge. Additionally, international backers will have access to only one reward level -- the new issue of the zine -- and no physical add-ons will be allowed for international rewards.
We continue to explore options to accelerate and improve our international Kickstarter fulfillment capabilities.

Zine Quest 2
Kickstarter is now running their latest Zine Quest event and there are several cool projects already up for funding here at the Kickstarter site. It is awesome to see the RPG community get behind this event for a second year, and I hope that this becomes an annual tradition for all of us.
Personally, I am backing:
If you join in to support any of these zines, please comment there and let the project creators know how you heard about their work. Some of these campaigns are from first-time creators, so this is our chance to encourage their works and help them to grow as designers/publishers.
Which zines are you already backing that I've missed out on? Please comment and let us know!
