Urbi et orbi!
Pax Vobiscum! Mike is here, full of joyful news for you all, o pious brethren of mine! Hear ye, hear ye, lend me your ears!
First of all, the USA shipleft the port yesterday, and the EU ship is expected to follow his example as soon as April 15th. We will return with more details as we'll have an official report from the cargo forwarder, but, in any case, it will see your shores in something around four or five weeks. This is quite a while, and alas, there's no way we can speed up neither ships nor the time itself, but it's in our power to try and pimp up those days of waiting with some ole' good medieval merriment! Now behold the do-it-yourself print-and-play plague-commemorative edition of "Deus Lo Vult" - and it's absolutely free for everyone, backers or not!
Click on the picture below to download the printable .pdf file containing Crusaders and Saracens unit tokens, City Quarter tokens, game board with camps, and a separate Purgatory board. Print them, cut them, laminate them with a cardboard box pieces and Deus Lo Vult yourselves into the end of the quarantine!
You also can download your special edition Rulebook .pdf file here. It's the light version of the original Duel Rulebook.
Now, last but not least, this: our humble souvenir store. To avoid agonizing logistic adventures that we've used to enjoy during the Gilded Boxes campaign, this time, we employ the specialized platform, threadless.com. They print, they ship, they process our payments - and also I vouch on those guys provide some excellent quality apparel, for I still wear some of their T-shirts and hoodies I bought seven years ago! So if you still have a coin to toss to your poor artisans during these trying times, you can shed your saving grace on us here:
Please let us know if there's something you'd love to see there, and, as usually, we'll be happy to answer all your questions, and get any feedback to improve ourselves in all ways possible.
Now, that's it. Please practice isolation; don't miss the workouts; print, play, buy our stuff, follow us on social media, and stay awesome!

All these will be announced in special updates, so please remain tuned and follow us on Social Media!
Please stay awesome, wash your hands, don't miss the morning workouts and exercise the social isolation! Our Lord won't forlorn His poor misguided children, and everything will get back to good - quite soon! Hold on your faith!

Urbi er Orbi!
Mike is here. Everything around is apparently going down in flames, everything - but the Deus Lo Vult shipping! Our Chinese partners are bit overhauled with all the orders suspended during almost two months long quarantine; the same thing is with the transport companies and the port - everyone is in a hurry to send their belated cargo. We're waiting in a queue for our turn to get on the ship, (which is said to happen on March 30) and preparing all shipping documents, insurances, sanitary certificates, and so on. Though it is not so visible from outside, everyone is working hard:
We have two containers, one goes for the USA and carries all Western-hemisphere bound orders, and the second one goes for EU and all Eastern parts. The first one is good to go, but we're still waiting for the EORI number to be issued to us by EU authorities (without it, we can't initiate the import/export operations in Europe), and we hope this matter will be resolved before our turn to shipping so we'll be able to send the second one, too.
Please don't panic. You will get your game, no matter what. We went this far and invested everything we had into this project not to fail, but to fulfill the promises we gave. I've seen some rumors in comments, some speculations about you allegedly required to pay for the game for the second time, or something like that. Well, this is utter nonsense. To make ends meet, we've handed over the property rights for the game itself and for rest of the batch, but not for your boxes. What's yours is yours, and there's no other way around. No one will ever have to pay anything else (except for those several dozens of Europeans who still didn't pay their VAT. We remind that orders with VAT remaining unpaid by the moment of arrival to EU port will be canceled and refunded, and boxes will be put on sale).
That's pretty much it for today. I will announce the status update on this EORI nincompoops as soon as I have the news from EU bureaucracy. Thank you for your patience and support, and please forgive your unapt servants for all the mess we have here. It's not due to laziness or mischief, but because of our weakness and puniness, and we'll never stop improving.
Be blessed, stay safe, wash your hands, and exercise social isolation while we work to deliver.

On Woeful Divine Will and Postponed Shipping

Urbi et Orbi!
Vae nobis miseris! Mike is here, and woe is me. No good news I can share with you, my Noble Knights, on this day. In the morning, our production manager informed us that the Shanghai city authorities just extended the 2019-nCoV quarantine measures for another two weeks, on top of that one week they already had.
Thus, shipping won't start at least until the end of the month. It's sad, and there's nothing we could do to help the situation but pray for our Chinese friends and partners. Let the Lord have mercy on us all, His poor misguided children!
