Army Of Darkness Board Game Pre-Order Store

Thank you all for the incredible support surrounding the Army of Darkness Board Game. The excitement around this campaign has honestly exceeded our expectations, especially when it comes to the dice sets.

Due to overwhelming demand during the pledge manager portion of the program, we’ve officially gone back to press on additional dice inventory. While we planned inventory levels based on projected interest, but the response from fans significantly outpaced what we anticipated from the main offering, and we want to make sure everyone receives the items included in their orders.

At this time, we are anticipating the new dice inventory arriving within the next 30 days, though we’ll continue to provide updates as production and shipping progress.

Because of this unexpected surge in demand, some orders containing expanded dice sets may experience shipping delays while we wait for the new inventory to arrive. We understand delays can be frustrating, and we sincerely appreciate everyone’s patience as we work to fulfill orders as quickly and accurately as possible.

The passion and enthusiasm for Army of Darkness has been tremendous, and we’re grateful for the continued support.

The Army of Darkness Board Game has arrived at our fulfillment house from the NY Port. Our partners are working to receive the games now - unloading the truck and bringing many pallets worth of games into their warehouse. The team is focusing on checking everything in and starting to break down the cases of games for shipments to go out. Our partners have indicated they anticipate being able to start shipping games to backers beginning early next week.  

We will continue to update on shipping progress as the packages are prepared and begin flowing through the mail to all backers. The fulfillment team is working to have everything set to start processing and packaging the games and other items to begin actively shipping.  

We still have 217 backers who have not filled out the pledge manager information. If you have not done so - please follow this link to get your data completed.

We have confirmation from the port authority that the Army of Darkness games have arrived at the New York port! They are scheduling the unloading from the freight containers and prepping to ship them to our distribution partner at this time.  We believe they will clear customs and arrive to us by the end of next week (4/24).  

We are working with our distributor to make sure they are ready to pick and pack the games to fill orders as soon as possible upon their local receipt.  If you have had a change to your address - this is a very good time to get that information in to us so we can make sure your games ship to the right location.

Also, we still have 410 backers who have not yet filled out the shipping survey. If you are one of them - please go here and complete your form so we can be sure to send your games with the first wave of shipping.

The Army of Darkness games are about a week away from arriving at the New York port at this time.  Their ocean voyage is estimating arrival at port on or around April 6th.  Once the games arrive at the port - they will be received, unloaded, packed onto a railroad car and sent on their way to our distribution partner.  Once this happens and the games arrive at our fulfillment partner, we will be ready to begin shipping to backers.

We had a few questions about the Army of Darkness game being available in comic shops early.  Those dates have been corrected.  The games will not ship to comic shops until several months after they fill through Backerkit.  All of our backers will have the games first and we are also supplying a special bonus gift - a digital download of an Army of Darkness graphic novel.  We will be circulating the download code for this free gift once we start shipping the games - watch for updates with instructions coming your way in the near future.

 If you have any questions - please email us at [email protected] for help. 

We have been notified that the Army of Darkness games have been released from customs at this time. Our factory has received the paperwork and is helping to move them to the freight forwarder. Upon arrival at the shipper, the games to be placed on the next available container to ship to the port in the United States.  

We've requested that the shipper confirm the start of the timeline from when the games are loaded into the container.  There is a container shortage in China at the moment but we believe it will not be more than a few weeks to go from the queue to being loaded for shipping, and then on the water to come to us.   

As soon as we have the confirmation on the shipping transit timeline we will get another update posted and begin the countdown for the games to arrive at port.  From port they will be unloaded from the ship and transported to our fulfillment center by rail.
