Feudum: A nuanced game of hand & resource management

Created by Mark Swanson

The Kickstarter campaign has come to an end, however, retail editions (at full MSRP) of Feudum and the expansions may be pre-ordered right here! You may also wait until the summer when the solo variant: Feudum: The Queen's Army will launch on Kickstarter. Rumor has it, there will be some special campaign bundles. As always, shipping stacks with multiple orders, so be sure to take advantage of the all-in-one accessory and/or game bundle options. Late Retailer Backers may email Mark directly at [email protected].

Latest Updates from Our Project:

about 6 years ago – Mon, Apr 30, 2018 at 10:16:26 PM

BGG Store + Promos 

The following items are now available on the Board Game Geek Store:

  • Feudum: Royal Signet Ring Promotional Card (Exclusive to BGG Store and GTS)
  • Feudum: Royal Chalice Promotional Card (Exclusive to BGG Store and Man vs. Meeple) 
  • Feudum: Four Kickstarter Stretch Goals

NOTE: The Odd Bird Games Store also sells a bundle that combines the last two items (while supplies last).

Tabletopia + STEAM 

Tabletopia has recently released a custom DLC of Feudum on STEAM! In addition, Tabletopia also offers Feudum on a browser-based digital platform (IE, Safari, Chrome).

NOTE: Tabletop Simulator is also releasing their own DLC of Feudum on STEAM in the near future. Stay tuned!

Trilingual Editions 

Aside from our standard German/French/English edition of Feudum, Odd Bird Games is on the verge of releasing two NEW trilingual editions thanks to the co-production efforts of six localization partners! The publishers below will be distributing these editions in July.

  • Spanish (Maldito Games) 
  • Italian (Ghenos Games) 
  • Chinese (Hobby Mind)

  • Russian (Moroz/Crow) 
  • Portuguese (Ludofy) 
  • Dutch (Quined Games)

NOTE: Odd Bird is currently exploring a fourth Trilingual edition. There is interest for the Korean (Studio Joypot) and Czech (ALBI) languages, and we are looking for a final partner. This could possibly be Polish, although nothing is finalized yet.

International Shipping Update from Quartermaster Logistics
about 6 years ago – Fri, Mar 23, 2018 at 01:17:45 AM

Hey folks, 

I am responding to your emails, messages, comments, texts (and phone calls) as fast as I can. For the most part, things are going smoothly. A small percentage of backers did not see the reminders that shipping payment was required AFTER the Kickstarter campaign and some orders were delayed. Backerkit did not have a way to base shipping costs on the cumulative weight of your KS order + post campaign add ons. By collecting shipping post campaign, backers with heavier orders were able to realize fairer shipping rates. The good news is that Backerkit has since OVERHAULED their system to automatically add KS weights to add on weights based on a shipping table, and all future campaigns will be much SMOOTHER.

Here's the latest on every shipping lane from my shipping logistics company, Quartermaster. 

  • US: Finished last week with the exception of the ones we're resolving now from backerkit. 
  • Canada: Started today (3/22) and saying they will be finished tomorrow (3/23) 
  • EU: Shipping has begun, but not finished. Reached out for an exact progress update.
  • Australia: Should also be wrapping up. Began early this week. 
  • Asia: Reached out for an update. Was told everything was packaged and labeled on Saturday. They'll update me with tracking if they're done

Delivery updates on US, EU, China, Australia and Canada
about 6 years ago – Tue, Mar 13, 2018 at 12:35:50 AM

Folks, 

I'm thrilled to hear your unpacking stories and I'm glad it has been packed to your satisfaction.  I knew that Quartermaster would not let you down!  Don't forget to dig through the peanuts a little to find any add-ons you ordered. (e.g. the metal coins). It would be dreadful if you accidentally tossed something out!  

Here's what's happening in each shipping lane:

U.S. Lane
Quartermaster is sending out their last wave of U.S. shipments tomorrow. At this point, ALL U.S. BACKERS should have received an email with tracking informatin.  I have been fielding your questions as quick as I can to give you peace of mind!

E.U. Lane
From Gamesquest: "We're just in the middle of a big project right now but the main warehouse should be clear towards the end of this week so i'd expect us to bring Feudum in from storage and start setting up at the end of this week to make a proper start on Monday."

Other Lanes (China, Australia, Canada)
From Quartermaster: All the centers operate on a "first ready, first out" situation, so it is all dependent on the other projects they're sending out this week and how simple/complex they are. China and Australia have everything they need to begin. I will check with Australia, but last I spoke with Asia, they were prepared to turn it around relatively quickly.

Canada has arrived in the Buffalo, NY hub today for import into Toronto. These orders ship from popular company Snakes & Lattes and are a good bunch. I would say they start next week, but I will check with them as well.

Feudum Ships as Early as Tuesday/Wednesday
about 6 years ago – Sun, Mar 04, 2018 at 11:56:13 PM

Folks, 

Ships this week!
My friend Seth from Quartermaster Logistics took my call over the weekend to fill me in on the delivery status.  Fulfillment Centers in the U.K., U.S., Australia, China are done with customs and are now scheduling delivery. (Packing and Shipping). Seth said that U.S. fulfillment will happen as early as Tuesday/Wednesday of this week! Seth will let me know soon about ground shipping for the other lanes.

Forgive my Error!
I learned that we missed a delivery slot early this week in the U.K. because of a miscommunication between Quartermaster and me. I gave Quartermaster backend access to my Backerkit account so they could pull addresses ASAP, but I learned that they were expecting me to approve a final list.  Like you, I was excited Quartermaster could fulfill overseas lanes sooner, but I was not clear about their procedural expectations.  This is on me.  Please forgive me!  I know this has been a long wait for everyone. Too long, really. I hope that the quality of the game will make up for some of the delay.  If those of you across the pond want to let me have it in the comments.... I wouldn't blame you! : )

Tom Vasel Unboxing
One final note...Some of you saw Tom Vasel's unboxing video and were concerned about packing quality. Please note that this was an advanced reviewers copy that my assistant took to the post office.  Rest assured, your games will be impeccably packed. (Quartermaster Logistics is a division of Cool Stuff, Inc., so they know a bit about shipping and packing games).

Talk soon!

Shipping Address Lockdown is Imminent...
about 6 years ago – Wed, Feb 21, 2018 at 01:01:39 AM

Folks, 

I trust you received the 48 hour shipping address lockdown notice for the original Feudum campaign.  The window to change your address (in case you moved) is coming to an end very soon, so please act quickly. (I have done this for many of you, but you should have access to your own survey).  Cheers!

Mark

P.S. I spoke with Quartermaster Logistics recently. They will provide me with port updates as soon as they become available. NOTE: You will receive a tracking number at the time your order is shipped.
