Dead Throne Second Edition

Production #4
9 months ago – Mon, Jul 31, 2023 at 07:19:58 AM

Hello everyone 😊

We hope that everyone is well and that those experiencing the heatwave in southern Europe are safe as well. Our family living in Greece narrowly avoided the fires. 

Just a short update to let everyone know that we are nearing the end of production now. Our manufacturer will return from summer break in a couple of weeks and from there we can continue. The shipping logistics are all set up now ready for all the orders to be picked, packed, loaded and delivered to you. We will have more information to share in a couple of weeks.

The anticipation around this game has been growing and none of us can wait to play 😁

All the best,

Team Sharkee

Production #3 + Miniatures
10 months ago – Sun, Jul 16, 2023 at 03:21:15 AM

Hello everyone 😊

Just wanted to post a quick update to mention that everything is on track. We have been compiling the shipping data in preparation to make sure we can deliver everyones orders as quickly as possible. Production is going well and Dead Throne is almost here 😁

Miniatures:

Our miniatures have been brought to life by the amazing artist @_ellke_ on instagram. He deserves far more attention for the brilliant work he does. We just wanted to share what can be achieved for your miniatures once you receive them 😁

We look forward to seeing more variations in the future from all of you.

All the best,

Team Sharkee

Production #2

Hello everyone 😊

Just wanted to reach out with a quick update and let everyone know that production is going well. We have also been organising the shipping for when production is over to make sure it all runs smoothly.

Here are some pictures of some of the components that have been printed. 

As more details emerge we will keep you posted 😁

All the best,

Production #1
11 months ago – Wed, May 31, 2023 at 04:07:19 AM

Hello everyone 😁

We are finally here!!! Full scale production has begun at last.

It has taken far longer than we expected after changing manufacturer. There were a lot of clarifications and tests to make so that we were sure the end result is exactly what we promised to deliver. We are very sorry for this delay but Dead Throne is worth the wait 😊 The box has been tested to make sure that everything fits neatly and safely. We have included an extra section for the Scenario Pack content as well so you can keep everything in one box. 

The self standing TuckBoxes have been tested to make sure they stand and will also be included in the Update/Language Packs to separate the english cards if you wish to keep them and for our original backers to have. They will be flat packed during shipping and the cards will be contained within four larger decks. The TuckBoxes can easily be assembled and the cards sorted into their appropriate decks afterwards.

Now of course the important part:

The Manufacturer already has the Miniatures and Card Trays and has printed some of the other components already. Their estimation for completion is 6-8 weeks (end of July being the latest).

Delivery will take place within the months of August and September.

For Europe and UK we expect a very quick delivery as we will be posting them from within Spain. 

For North America we will be sending them to a local fulfilment centre and from there they will be posted.

Addresses:

On Sunday the 11th of June we will lock all addresses on Backerkit in order to provide our fulfilment partners with accurate orders. After that we will have even more accurate information on delivery times for the two regions and will share them in a later update.

If anything has changed with your circumstances/address could you please log into Backerkit where you can amend those details. We will still be able to make any last minute changes before shipping starts so don't worry if something does change later. And of course we will always be here to help if you need us 😊

We cannot wait for everyone to receive their game and to see the Scenarios that you design and share.

The World of Veles is continuing to expand around this awesome game and we are excited to bring you along on this journey. Below is the Calendar of Veles with its five seasons and 15 months. Soon the test books will be printed and we are happy to share some for those who wish to dive deeper into this world.

Thank you so much for your patience. We know it has been a long wait but we are determined to deliver on our promise.

All the best,

Team Sharkee

Pre-Production #6
about 1 year ago – Tue, Apr 25, 2023 at 02:35:21 AM

Hello everyone 😊

We are so close to the end of the Pre-Production phase. Yesterday we finalised the first review of all the quantities and components. Soon we will sign off on the e-review and after that the big button will be pressed to begin the mass production phase.

We reviewed the blank templates created to assure that everything will fit and function perfectly. 

One of those reviews included a video of the new, self supporting tuckboxes which I would like to share here.

The template is blank but of course they will include the artwork for the deck type. There will also be artwork at the front lip directly under the cards so you can see which deck it is when supported and looking head on. Extensive testing has been done to make sure that they are strong and long lasting. 

We also finalised the wrapping of the Miniatures and Card Trays add-on. Once you receive them you can place them inside the Core Box where they have been designed to fit and stay.

There will be more updates to follow but we are excited with the progress and even more excited to open Dead Throne when it arrrives 😁

Once we fully enter the production phase we will update everyone on the new shipping schedule.

All the best,

Team Sharkee
