Printing Update and New Dice at Warehouse 23
over 2 years ago
– Sat, Dec 11, 2021 at 06:36:20 PM
We shipped the $225 holiday rewards last month, each of which included an early printing of the Random Fun Generator 2 book. Now, the printer is close to finishing the full print run of the book and will ship the books to our fulfillment partner in Georgia. We do not yet have an exact date when we will start shipping project rewards, but everything is moving ahead of schedule. We've even already shipped the add-ons and stretch goal dice to the fulfillment warehouse so that they'll be ready to go once the books arrive and we lock addresses in the pledge manager.
We'll post an update just as soon as the finished books are ready to start mailing to backers.
For those of you who can never get enough dice, we have a few new dice listed at our online store, Warehouse 23, that have joined our expanding catalog of dice.
(Plus, these were released in early November.)

$225 Holiday Reward Update and New Dice at Warehouse 23
over 2 years ago
– Sun, Nov 14, 2021 at 07:41:52 PM
Thank you, everyone, for handling your BackerKit surveys! With that step out of the way, we have what we need to pack and ship the $225 holiday reward level before the end of this month. All other reward levels are scheduled to ship in April of 2022; we'll keep you updated as we work through the manufacturing and fulfillment process.
Our online store, Warehouse 23, was flooded with new releases last week, including some hard-to-find recent releases and completely new dice. One of the hard-to-find dice released last week was the giant Munchkin d10 level die that was first offered in an earlier Kickstarter campaign. This colossal die is a limited release and may not be re-released in this color, so now's your best chance to grab one before they're gone. (We've held back a few dozen for future release, but even we don't know exactly when and where those will make an appearance.)
Other new dice sets (and related releases) include:
Please visit our online store, Warehouse 23, to see all of our available dice, dice games, and accessories.

As of this writing, 93% of you have completed your BackerKit surveys: Thank you!!!
For the remaining 7% of you who have not yet completed your BackerKit surveys, please take care of that before Monday. On Monday, November 1, we are locking the surveys and incomplete surveys will be handled as necessary. Completing the survey by the deadline is an important part of our process and we cannot extend the deadline; you have until November 1 to complete your survey.
If you cannot find your survey, please use this BackerKit tool. As always, check your spam folders in emails if you don't see your survey; it is possible your mail program shuffled your survey into the wrong folder.
Ending on November 8, the Kickstarter campaign for the Girl Genius Sourcebook and Roleplaying Game is a wild success that is far exceeding our expectations; the project has attracted so many followers that we've already had to work out plans for a potential second printing of the hardcover!
Our online convention is next week and attendance is free! (You'll need access to Discord, of course, but then it is free to join us.) We'll have panels, guests, live stream gaming sessions, and more! We hope that many of you will join us November 5, 6, and 7 for the event. You can learn more about the show here.

over 2 years ago
– Sat, Sep 25, 2021 at 03:20:44 PM
What an incredible launch! Thank you, gang, for being here to support our newest book of dice games. Already, you have unlocked three stretch goals, adding more dice to the $35 and higher reward levels! There can never be too many dice, and we've been collecting dice for the last year in preparation for this campign.
- Phil Reed
NOTE: Images below are not to scale and do not represent all of the dice we will choose from when randomly selecting stretch goal dice. The mint and yellow dice are 14mm designs that align with our 14mm dice for The Fantasy Trip, the dragon and skull dice are 16mm and a part of our Dragon d6 Dice Set and Skull d6 Dice Set family, and the 19mm glow-in-the-dark jack 'o lantern dice are from the same mold used to create our Halloween d6 Dice Set. These and other dice sets will be used in the pool of dice we select from when filling stretch goal slots in rewards of $35 and higher. Please see the stretch goals section of the campaign's main page for more information on stretch goal dice and dice sets.
NOTE ON THE NOTE: The mentioned Dragon d6 Dice Set and Skull d6 Dice Set are both running low at our primary warehouse. We have reprints of both sets at the factory and scheduled to ship in 2022. The reprint dice will be very similar to the original printings, but not identical.
