Monthly Package Status for October 2018 through February 2019.
🕑 Added 2019-01-16 16:53:33 +0000 UTCHey everyone,
I just wanted to chime in with status on the monthly packages as we've been so focused on the upcoming ones.
October Packages are almost all out!
We had a snag on the new subscriber packages, so a few of these were held behind. The short story is that we thought we were out of Banned Books starters so we ordered more. Then I found a whole bunch when going through items at our new HQ space. So now we have more than we need! :)
But the remaining are heading out and will be out no later than Saturday. If you are still waiting for an October package after next week, message us at buttonshyhelp@gmail.com and we will resolve it.
November Packages are in (sort of)!
They still need to be assembled, but all pieces are here for the $5 and $10 packages. They will start shipping by this weekend and will be out no later than next Saturday. These will also include 2 missing items from October (Banned Books - Bernard and Liberation for those that are owed these items).
For $20+ supporters: The only thing that's missing is the Twin Stars II wallet game. Somehow we are off sync with our wallets and packages, so we have a few ways to approach it. We can send out the package with everything that's here and then send the wallets in the next package (like we did with Liberation), or we can hold everything back. As confusing as it is, I prefer to send out what's in. It gets you something now instead of later, and we're only still focusing on 1 item. With that being said, I'll be posting a $20 supporter only post asking which wallet game you want included in your November package.
December Packages are coming!
Aside from the wallets, we have 1 set of rules to arrive and then December is done and ready to go. We're starting to assemble everything we can, just so that we'll be ready to jump once they arrive. I will keep you in the loop as the rules never take more than about 10 days to get here.
So where does that put us for January and February?
January is a beast and we're still finalizing a lot of the pre-production. When I say it's a beast, it really is. You are getting 4 character cards for Chain Mail, plus 3 tracking cards and a component card. Then you're also getting the first map, quest and monsters. That alone has been super time consuming, but it's JAM-PACKED.
I anticipate everything to get here the first week of February and start on assembly. January is being ordered with the 2019 starters and the February packages as well, so if all goes well (and I will warn you that it never does), we will have both packages out in February. My New Years resolution is to get every month after January out during that month. I will keep pushing until we pull it off.
I also imagine that we'll have all of the January digital items in the dropbox by the end of the month. That's my goal at least.
And then comes February. I'm posting a small tease below, but I've been working real hard on a big tease with lots of images. It's a doozy! Expect it tomorrow.
Thanks everyone!

Hey Alicia, if you've been a $20+ supporter for 3 months in a row, you should have gotten a T-Shirt. If that's true and you haven't yet, email me at buttonshyhelp@gmail.com and I'll make a note to get one sent to you. Similar with Banned Books base game. You should have gotten this in your first physical package at $5+ in 2018. If you haven't, email me and we'll get it out.

Additionally, I was wondering if everyone received the Banned Books base game or only those subscribed by a certain date. I never received one and wanted to know if I needed to order one from the website. Thanks! Keep up the great work — my family often gets as much enjoyment from your little games as from some of the huge, pricey Kickstarter juggernauts.

Hi, I had a couple questions. First, did the shirts for those who didn’t get them at the usual time ever get sent out? I don’t seem to have ever gotten one. Additionally,

If we get added to the January package, will we also get the January $5 discount?
Jonathan Barreaux
I didn't think about it but that totally makes sense actually. Thank you for the reply!

Hey Jonathan, you can get the $20 package essentially by getting the $10 and the Maiden In The Forest wallet game separately. We don't generally bundle the entire thing since all of it is available (and conveniently, the same price right now). The member card will be part of the starter kit, which everyone will get.
Jonathan Barreaux
Hi there! If we subscribed after 1/1/19, is it only possible to get the $10 package for January (via the link you provided) or is the $20 one also available?Would we also get the 2019 Member Card? I know it's maybe more of a nice gimmick but I'd love to have it too. :)

Thanks man, that's great.

Hey Glenn, if you came in after 1/1/19, then you can use this link to pick up the January package as well: <a href="https://buttonshygames.com/collections/board-game-of-the-month-club-packages/products/board-game-of-the-month-club-january-2019" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://buttonshygames.com/collections/board-game-of-the-month-club-packages/products/board-game-of-the-month-club-january-2019</a>

Milo, your first package will be February as your first payment will come out on 2/1. If you want to pickup the January package, you can use this link to order it on its own. <a href="https://buttonshygames.com/collections/board-game-of-the-month-club-packages/products/board-game-of-the-month-club-january-2019" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://buttonshygames.com/collections/board-game-of-the-month-club-packages/products/board-game-of-the-month-club-january-2019</a>

I sent you a message about being added to the January package. Is this possible?
Milo Gertjejansen
If I subscribed yesterday (I did) will I end up being up to date on Chainmail by the time the February package shows up?
Laszlo Korossy
Chainmail looks soooooooo gooooooood
