![]() It’s been hectic trying to track all the information down. When the shipments arrive at their destination ports there are numerous factors that may affect how long it will take for the games to be unloaded and taken to the actual fulfillment centers, and we cannot give any precise estimates on this at the moment. But these bookings can change last minute, as vessels get overbooked or delayed, and it is not always easy for us to know exactly where and when these decisions are made as we do not get to witness the whole chain of communications. Then the manufacturer sends us the paperwork that has the details for each shipment. When the initial bookings have been made, they notify the fulfillment company, who in turn notifies us. These logistics agents then book slots for our containers on vessels and make appointments to pick up the goods from the factory and transport them to their port of load. Our fulfillment partner contacts their local logistics agents and puts them in touch with the right people at the factory. How do the logistics of bulk shipment work? The short answer is that all the vessels have departed China and are now on their way to the regional hubs. You could also help us by clicking on the BGG link for this update and maybe with enough clicks, we go up in their algorithm. There is also the BoardgameGeek page of the game, with lovely images and forums about the game, Aegir Games Facebook Page, and a collection of Kickstarter Updates with in-depth information about the game’s development over the past years. The place to go is Aegir Games’ Discord Server where there are daily discussions and playtesting of the game. Suppose you would like day-to-day updates about development. This is a copy of the Kickstarter Update #41 It would help us quite a bit if we can move part of the conversation there. ![]() It was top of the Hot Reviews section in BGG for a while, click the heck out of it, and “like” it there on BGG. We got our first review! From Beastie Geeks, in Poland. Your copies are being delivered from the UK, follow all the steps in the UK section above! Our First Video Review! We will update you when we get confirmation that they’ve been shipped, and let you know when you can come to pick them up at our office or expect them to arrive by mail. The Shipments to Norway (one to our office and one to our local fulfillment partner) have been booked to be shipped from the UK and they have started allocating the products, so these should soon be on their way (my game is there too!!) Look for the letter E and scroll all the way down. For the rest of the countries within the VFI domain, check their page: The playmats will come in a separate shipment a bit later. Check their Facebook page for updates on when they start delivering.Īs mentioned, backers have started to receive copies in Hong Kong and China. Even the playmats that came from Poland are there already. ![]() They should also ask for address confirmation before sending, and then tracking numbers, keep your eyes peeled on your email accounts!Īetherworks has the product and has sent out emails for backers to confirm their addresses. Quartermaster Logistics has the games, the playmats are on their way, and they do regular updates on their Twitter: Again, check the GamesQuest blog for updates from them. Our EU warehouse is in Griesheim and they have the Backer Data. We promptly paid the duties and submitted the paperwork necessary to get the goods released, but this inevitably caused a bit of a delay. German customs hit us “good” (more on that in another Update), and held on to our container for inspection for about a week. But check their webpage, where they put up weekly updates. They do not have a precise date on when stuff is shipping out. GamesQuest is analyzing the Backer Data at the moment. Also, when it is time for delivery, you should get a notification from your local fulfillment center, via SMS or email, with a tracking number. I hope shipments will go out soon in Europe and the US as well, and when we get tangible and fungible information from our fulfillment partner, we will update you. If you are among those who have received it, we would love to see more such videos and pictures! VFI in Asia have started sending out the games, and some of our backers in China and Hong Kong have already received their games, as you can see from the Unboxing Video further down in this update.
