This Friday, September 25 at 10pm Pacific Time is the deadline to sign up for all the physical cards to get early access to Codex. You'll get the base set and all expansions so you can help with the last stage of development of the game.
1) Sign up at as a patron at the $25 level for at least one month on my Patreon.
2) Once you're a patron, you'll see the instructions on Patreon on how to buy the Codex starter set + all 6 factions for $99.99 + shipping. ($165 value, so this is a limited time thing. $15 US shipping, $33 international. This is the actual cost of shipping with no padding.)
Make sure to complete this step before the deadline on Friday.
3) Wait for us to ship the goods to you! We'll need a few days of processing time, followed by 2-3 weeks manufacturing time.
As long as you remain a patron (at any level), over the coming months you'll have access to change-packs of any updates we do to the cards (offered at just the cost of printing + shipping).
If you'd like to learn more about Codex, here's three articles about the game's design:
#1 Codex Design: Cards and Gold As Resources
#2 Codex Design: Heroes and Tech Buildings
#3 Codex Design: Combat and the Patrol Zone
If you miss this deadline, you'll still be able to join in by signing up for my Patreon, it's just that you'll miss out on this discounted price that's only possible because of the bulk order we're doing right now. If you'd like wait for the full release of the game, that's fine too. It will be several months before we can do a kickstarter than 7 or 8 months more before it finally ships to backers. So this is a chance get get in on the game like a year early.
