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].

The Nitty-Gritty
Hello folks! My project manager at Panda (David Lipman) says Panda is working on the updated samples of the miniatures, and they are starting on all of the wood and metal components. Additionally, they have collected all the English files for print, including the box bottom pictured above!

David states that If we stay organized, they can cut assembly down to 2 weeks and if preproduction goes smoothly, they can shave a week off there. Panda's latest timeline falls within the original Kickstarter delivery estimate of October, with some parts of the world in November.  See the production timeline at the bottom!

Translation Progress
The translation work is coming nicely too!  All English Files are ready and the German and French translations are being final proofed. The "Download Rulebook" button on the Kickstarter page takes you to the LATEST rulebook files for the base game and all the expansions.

The "Feudum Complete Rules + Setup" video (which is approaching 8,000 views) has subtitles in the following languages, including one just submitted by Daniel Collado from Spain. (Please spread the word about this helpful video!)

Early Resin Results for Conifer Trees
about 7 years ago – Wed, Apr 26, 2017 at 11:08:31 PM

 

I'm really pleased with these RESIN trees from the Squirrels & Conifers expansion (A free stretch goal for backers). They are the perfect weight, and the painting reflects the art style of the game!  I hope you like!  The behemoth, sea serpent and windmill are looking very cool tool!  I am making some slight changes, as it is DIFFICULT to get them to look exactly like the 3D models I provided (The figures are really small, so for instance, the very detailed eye on the 3D model siren, best translates into a small painted dot on the actual figure. So far, so good.

Expansion Box Backs from Justin Schultz!
about 7 years ago – Wed, Apr 26, 2017 at 09:06:00 PM

I realize many of you snagged the "Big Box" (without the expansion boxes) to conserve space. I don't blame you. However, for those of you who ordered one or more expansions separately....you will not regret it. Here is the magnificent art from the magnificent Justin Schultz showing the box backs!  His signature art style is filled with whimsey, not to mention a slew of little gems and easter eggs that correlate with the games narrative!!! (And, wait 'till you see the inserts!) Bravo, Justin!

 

 

 

ALL BACKERS PLEASE READ! ONLY 2 DAYS BEFORE "LOCKDOWN"!!!
about 7 years ago – Wed, Apr 26, 2017 at 09:05:57 PM

Hi folks!

If you HAVE NOT calculated your shipping, or if you are thinking about adding more items to your order, NOW IS THE TIME!

You see....April 28th is "lockdown." This is when Backerkit makes sure you've added the correct shipping rate (based on weight of your kickstarter reward plus add ons), and then charges you for said add ons and shipping.

This means you must ask yourselves 2 questions:

  • Do I want to add anything to my order?
  • Have I correctly calculated and selected a shipping "add on" (Example pictured above). For large orders exceeding 100kg in weight, simply add MULTIPLE shipping add ons to get to the total weight of the order. 

If you have NOT calculated/selected your shipping, Backerkit will do it for you. HOWEVER, it might be wise to do this yourself so you can have an idea of what you will be charged. 

HERE'S HOW:

  • Go to your survey. (Recover it here if you have lost it: https://feudum.backerkit.com)
  • Add up the kg weight of all items in your cart, BOTH your original reward item and your add ons! (You may use your head, your calculator or your fingers).
  • Select the correct shipping add-on for the shipping that is owed. (e.g. <5 kg, < 6 kg, etc.) For weights exceeding 100kg, simply add multiple shipping add ons together until they total the weight of your order.
  • That's it! This will ensure that you get the best deal as you will enjoy the economies of scale for the combined weight of your order!

    NOTE: Some have already discussed shipping rates with me or Backerkit directly and have been told the appropriate shipping add on to select.  

Box and Insert Mockup
about 7 years ago – Sun, Mar 26, 2017 at 12:00:06 AM

 

Hey folks, here's a mockup of the box and insert. The color and resolution is not the best as it was printed out at Fedex, and it does not show the linen finish or the foil stamping, but it gives you an idea of the size and the inside art!
