[Backerkit] What is a Backerkit survey? When will it be sent?
Backerkit is a website we’ll send you to when it comes time to collect your mailing address and shipping costs. It’s also one of the ways that we’ll be delivering you digital files. Look for Backerkit links to be sent out after the first of the year.

[Customer Service] I have a question not listed here. What's the best way of getting it answered?
Whether it’s during the live campaign or months later, your best bet for a quick answer is to reach out to [email protected]. Please do not use Kickstarter’s own messaging system, as we won’t be checking that as frequently.

[Customer Service] When will you charge my credit card?
Your card will be charged when the Kickstarter ends (October 18th). If your card fails that day, it will be reattempted for about a week.

[Gameplay] I play MÖRK BORG. Is this usable for that?
Absolutely! They’re about 90% the same, with the key difference being that PIRATE BORG has an extra attribute: SPIRIT. You should have no problem taking one of our adventures and running through it in with Mörk Borg; just convert SPIRIT to PRESENCE.

[Gameplay] Is this a Free League game?
Technically, it’s a Free League Workshop game. What’s that mean? It means it’s a Limithron game, but Free League is our worldwide publishing and distribution partner.

[Gameplay] Do I need the core book to play "x" content?
Starter Set? No. Any other book? Yes, unless you like to convert adventures to other systems.
Last updated: September 17, 2024 06:38
[Gameplay] I've never played before. Where should I start?
There are intro videos at youtube.com/@limithron. Or join a session in our discord’s “looking-for-game” channel (discord.gg/7xaDmyZ). If you’re ready to dive in, might we recommend the “New Quartermaster” Reward Tier, or you can pledge for the Starter Set on its own. If you just want the core book, why wait?? You can pick it up today at store.limithron.com or at your FLGS.

[Gameplay] What does "d66" mean?
“d66” is a dice roll where you roll two six-sided dice and use the first as the tens place and the second as the ones place. It can produce 36 results. For example, a roll of “6” and “2” would equal “62” on a d66 table.

[Playtesting] I'd love to be a playtester for the new content, how do I sign up?
Two ways! Selecting a Reward Tier with game content will mean you get access to a beta version of that content in the next few months. Want it earlier than that? Join our Patreon (patreon.com/limithron) to get early access to alpha versions.

[Playtesting] I've caught a typo! Where can I let the team know?
We will have a specific form available for you to submit all typos and other issues to in the coming months when we release the beta PDF. That will be made available in our Discord and in future updates. Please do not put them in the comment section or in an email.

[Product] I don't see a bundle that fits my needs, can I add things?
Yes. You can either grab the “A La Carte” tier and build your own bundle in the following Add-Ons section, or you can grab a different Reward Tier and add whatever else you’d like to it in the Add-Ons. Finally, you’ll also be able to add things to your order in Backerkit later on.

[Product] I see there are black dice in the starter set. Are they the same as the Jolly Roger dice?
No. The dice in the starter set, while the same dimensions, are opaque black with white ink, and have a straight edge, but not a hard edge. The Jolly Roger dice are semi-transparent with lots of black swirls and a hard edge. Both are made from resin.

[Product] Which printing of the PIRATE BORG core book will ship with this Kickstarter?
The first printing. That means it includes two bookmark ribbons, the A3 Dark Caribbean/Black Coral Bay map, and an errata sticker.
Last updated: September 17, 2024 06:38
[Product] Can I order PIRATE BORG content that's not from this campaign?
If you don’t want to wait, you can order PIRATE BORG and most of our preexisiting content that isn’t out of print from our webstore: https://shop.limithron.com. You can also pick up merch like shirts and mugs that aren’t offered in this Kickstarter.

[Product] Are the tokens/reference cards/dice in the Starter Set different than the ones elsewhere?
Yes, though we reserve the right to end up including a few token/card duplicates as a bonus if we feel that they will help round out the full product. Either way, the vast majority will be unique to each product.

[Retail] I'm a retailer. How can I get stuff for my store?
There’s a Reward Tier specifically for you…but you can also message [email protected] to dive in immediately or to get alternative options. We’d love to chat!

[Shipping] I feel like shipping costs are high. Why is that?
Shipping costs are obscene on our end. We hate it as much as you do. But there’s not much we can do about a 50% increase in postage alone over the last two years.

[Shipping] I don't live in the USA, will you ship to me?
With a very few exceptions, the answer is yes! We have fulfilment warehouses in the US, EU, and UK. EU and UK will be DDP( Delivered Duty Paid), which be part of your shipping costs. The rest of the world ships from those warehouses. We are not offering shipping to Belarus, Brazil, Russia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan and Afghanistan.

[Shipping] When should I expect items to ship?
Officially we’re saying September of 2025, but we’re hoping to chop a few months off that. Final digital content should be released by March 2025.

[Translations] Will PIRATE BORG and the expansions be translated?
We’ve been chatting with several publishers and starting in 2025 we begin to explore the idea of translations into other languages.

[VIP] Why isn't my d2 Charon's Obol included in my pledge?
The VIP rewards will be added to your pledge in Backerkit after the Kickstarter has ended.

What is BackerKit?
BackerKit is a service that crowdfunded project creators use to keep track of hundreds to tens of thousands of backers—from shipping details, pledge levels, preferences and quantities, whether they have paid or had their card declined, special notes, and everything in between!
The BackerKit software and support team is independent from the campaign’s project team—BackerKit does not handle the actual reward shipping. For more information about the preparation or delivery status of your rewards, please check the project's updates page.
How does BackerKit work?
After the campaign ends, the project creator will send you an email with a unique link to your survey. You can check out a walkthrough of the process here.
I never received my invitation. How do I complete the survey?
The most common reasons for not receiving a survey email is that you may be checking an email inbox different from the email address you used to sign up with Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account, or it may be caught in your spam filter.
Confirm that the email address you are searching matches the email address tied to your Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or Tilt Pro account. If that doesn’t work, then try checking your spam, junk or promotions folders. You can also search for "backerkit” in your inbox.
To resend the survey to yourself, visit the project page and input the email address associated with your Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account.
How do I update my shipping address?
BackerKit allows you to update your shipping address until the shipping addresses are locked by the project creator. To update your address, go back to your BackerKit survey by inputting your email here.
When will my order be shipped, charged or locked?
That is handled directly by the project creator. BackerKit functions independently of the project itself, so we do not have control of their physical shipping timeline. If you want to check on the project’s status, we recommend reading over the project's updates page.
I completed the survey, but haven't received my rewards yet. When will they arrive?
As BackerKit does not actually handle any rewards or shipping, the best way to stay updated on the shipping timeline would be to check out the project's updates page.
