How do I know that I am a first 48h backer?

If you could see the “first 48h image” on the campaign page when you backed, you are in.

I wrote a comment / asked something but didn’t get any reply.

I will answer for sure. Just please be patient. I have lots of todos with the campaign management and sometimes I also try to sleep.:) I reply as soon as I can (max. in 12 hours). Thank you for your understanding!

[GAME] Semi-coop elements? Is this a semi-coop game?

It is not a semi-coop game, because by definition, in a semi-coop game players (should) cooperate and parallel multiple players can win at the same time. Legacy of Thracks is a competitive game which means that there can be only 1 winner. But in the Shadow mode, the Clan Heroes should cooperate against the Shadow players otherwise they will probably all lose.

[GAME] What game modes are available?

  1. Basic mode which is a symmetric competitive game. Heroes have no unique skills. Recommended for learning the game. 2. Clan mode is the same as the basic mode but has asymmetric Hero action cards and abilities. 3. Shadow mode is based on the Clan mode, but the goal of the Shadow player is to prevent all other players from reaching their goal. Shadow player uses other unique mechanics in order to achieve this. 4. Solo mode: there is an event card deck and you have to enter Dimara in time AND also have more VP than the Shadow. 5. Based on the event card deck there will be a full cooperative mode too (this development is in progress that’s why I can’t publish an official rule). And stay tuned, because I have one more surprise for you regarding the game variants. ;)

[GAME] What is the level of luck and interaction between the players?

Luck is not significant. The only random things are the cards that you draw and the production dice which define which items will be produced. But in the case of the latter, it happens at the beginning of your turn, before any decisions so you can adjust your actions to this.

[GAME] I am confused - is this a Euro game or an Ameri? What is hybrid?

It combines the advantages of both. Ameri because it is very thematic, it has a detailed world, a long story, and visually it looks like that. Direct player interaction is also high. It is Euro because the level of luck is low and your success depends mainly on how optimally you spend your resources, so resource optimization and calculation is critical too.

[GAME] How many players can play it?

1-4 players can play it. The 5th player also depends on how successful the Kickstarter campaign is. If it is, then in my mind there is a 5th player extension with unique mechanics. But now it’s a future plan.

[GAME] How long does it take to play?

Depends on the chosen game length. If everybody already knows the game, then with 4 players the Rush mode would take 1,5 hours, the Normal mode 2-2,5 hours and the Epic mode 3-3,5 hours. But it also depends on the players, because if somebody could reach Dimara the game ends.:)

What languages are available?

Currently only English, but we are in discussion with several publishers. Follow the campaign and I will announce the new languages here.

Will it be available later in retail?

At this point, no idea, really. It depends on many factors, mainly on the success of this campaign. To secure your copy, I definitely recommend that you support it now during the campaign. And also, if there will be any retail I can’t guarantee the same components, probably it will be different / limited.

[KS GENERAL] How should I add an add-on?

There are 2 ways: 1. Just increase your pledge amount by the cost of the chosen add-ons. or 2. Do nothing now and you can add it later in the pledge manager.

Last updated: April 05, 2022 07:26

[KS GENERAL] Can I upgrade / change my pledge later in the pledge manager?

Yes, of course, in the PM you can change your pledge and you also can add add-ons there.

[KS GENERAL] What does Kickstarter exclusive mean?

Kickstarter exclusive components will not be available later in the classic distribution and retail system.

[KS GENERAL] How I pay the VAT?

As Legacy of Thracks will be shipped to many countries, it’s not possible to include local taxes in the price as they vary from country to country. Local taxes will be added in the Pledge Manager after the campaign. So if for example, you are in the UK or the EU you will be required to pay roughly 20% VAT in the Pledge Manager.

[KS GENERAL] Is there a group pledge discount?

Yes, if you order 6+ games, the cost of the total shipping will be decreased by 50%

Your English sucks, does this have any effect also on the game?

I handle all comments and communication and I am not a native speaker so maybe you see that my English is not the best. But this has absolutely no effect on the game, multiple native professionals check and proofread all contents. - Thank you! Balázs

BackerKit FAQ

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.
