PLEDGE MANAGER CLOSING SOON!
over 2 years ago – Tue, Aug 31, 2021 at 03:55:48 AM

Hello Everyone!

This is just a friendly alert that the Pledge Manager at  Backerkit will be closing on Wednesday, September 15. Please do go in and finish  things up. There are quite a few still outstanding! Once I close, your  credit cards will be billed for shipping and additional items purchased.

If you have any questions or concerns about this next step,  please do email us at [email protected] and we'll resolve any  problem!


We are also proud to announce that we are working closely with Association Muca CUPatarica, Centre of Applied Objects.


As real partisans we use everything for the couse. We do not throw anything away. That is why our pouches for Stars&traitors and Medal chase(Join the partisans jr.) are made out of recycled material.

We are still waiting for some items to be manufactured. Mostly cards and instructions(since we have 4 languages to attend to, it took some time to get it done). Next week we will receive the last batch of medals so we are confident that we will deliver on time.
Stay tuned for more updates.

To all our partisans

We have some news that we would like to share with you.

We have been delaying the Backerkit survey for one reason only. We have decided to invest additional funds and to print the game cards in English, Croatian, Italian and Slovene languages.
We strongly believe that the players will enjoy the game more if they play it in their chosen language. Soon the German language will follow.
Also we have been contacted by french, russian and serbian communities so we are glad to inform you that we plan to translate the game into these languages too.

All of this will not affect the delivery date. We believe that the english versions will be shipped in the second part of august and the rest of the languages will follow soon.

The Backerkit survey will be sent during this week, so please make sure to check your emails.
PDF posters will be delivered after the survey is answered.

We have already started with the production of game components (pictures will be shown in next update). We are currently waiting for manufacturers to send us the game components so we can start with the assembly line.  
During this time we were very busy because some organisations have contacted us and they want to adopt the gameplay to use it as an educational toy to teach history in their countries. :)

We also had an interview for the BBC news/na srpskom. 

Here is a link: https://www.bbc.com/serbian/lat/balkan-57922713

We have also been contacted by many historians who would like to contribute more information about some partisan events from the WW2 era. These will be added additionally.

We know that the gameboard community does not enjoy the use of smartphones so we tried to be as short as we could be in our videos for Special missions. There are 40 of them so far.. In case you enjoy my Slav accent. :D

But let me repeat once again. Our game can be played without the use of a smartphone!

From now on we will send updates every week to keep you informed about the production of the game.

I can’t thank you enough for all of your support so far. We also made a small surprise for the backers that will be included in the box.

Pledge Manager with Backerkit!
almost 3 years ago – Wed, Jun 09, 2021 at 12:40:39 PM

Hello Backers!

We're now starting the long road to finishing the project! The next  immediate step is to get moving on the Pledge Manager with Backerkit!

Soon (over the next few days), you’ll receive an email from us with a special link to your BackerKit Survey.  It’s important to respond to your survey as quickly as you can since we  need this information to fulfill your rewards and get accurate counts  for manufacturing and shipping.

You don’t need to create a BackerKit account to fill out your survey.  When you receive the email with the survey, click the survey link to  respond. Answer the questions about your reward preferences, provide  shipping information, and purchase add-on items if you like.

After you respond to your survey, you can go back later and change  your responses at any time before we close the surveys and get our final  counts.

If you need to review your information or pledge status, you can  return to your survey by clicking the link in your survey email or  requesting your survey link under "Lost your survey?" on our BackerKit  project page at https://jointhepartisans.backerkit.com.

If you used your Facebook credentials to log in to your Kickstarter  account, the BackerKit survey is sent to the email address you use for  your Facebook account. If you have another email address that you prefer  to use, please contact support at https://jointhepartisans.backerkit.com/faq.


What's next? Well, we already started with some parts of the production. Now we are signing  agreements with additional museums, to add even more extra content for the knowledge seekers! 

Rulebook  translations are also shaping up quickly (2 of the 5 languages are done)! 

We'll be working on those this week as well, so more updates will be  coming soon!

If you have any questions, you can always message me here on Kickstarter!

Thanks again for backing!

We did it!

To all our Partisans!

We did it!

As author of the game I can't tell you how much your support means to me. Without you this would have been just another one of my dreams. But you brought it to reality!

This was an overwhelming experience for me and my wife. We feel as if we went through the war. :D
And we are happy and proud to see that we did not go through it alone.
Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts.
PS: All of you will receive a special medal: Larso’s hero. This medal is not transferable to others. Only you can claim it’s privileges. You deserved it!
