I can't believe I'm writing this... The first batch of decks is already out! These are the plain 2deck pledges (without add-ons, Trial, Demo etc).
Terrible work to find who got what after 1 year and 3 sites involved... Don't do this at home :lol: :lol: :lol:

Wonderful work too, it must be said .... because of your mistakes and corrections, your trials and failures .... and consequently, your intense perseverence.
Terrific.

What a cool take on the classic illustrations. I like the simple shading, and color choices. It feels classical and modern in a nice balance.

Did anyone receive their deck yet? Unfortunately I missed out on the Kickstarter campaign but I was able to buy a demo edition deck through the UC site last year. Didn't know if the different editions would ship together or separately.

He may be connecting orders and shipping things out now. He mentioned on his last update on how he was going to do something. I wonder if we'll get tracking numbers, which I don't recall getting in the past. Without backtracking, we might get them.

From all the replied and updates, seems like all the decks from ICON/Black Mass/Black Gold Projects are being shipped together. And from the last update, we should have received the tracking number on Monday/Tuesday. I guess there are some issues that's causing more delays?

This is from his last update on July 12:

"Hi all,

This is a quick update to let you know about a little change in plans.

The system "little by little" doesn't seem to work. It's very time consuming and creates a mess with keeping track of who got what. I'm also constantly exhausted and this is very counterproductive. Therefore, apart from the decks that I've already sent, I'm preparing the rest of the packages to be sent all together. I'll be packing all week and I'll go to the post office on Monday and if needed on Tuesday too. Each backer will get their tracking number the same day I'll send their package.

Sorry for this little extra delay...

Thank you,

Lotrek"

I think with so many original decks, the extras that came with buying 1 or multiple decks, secret gifts, and all the TRIAL, DEMO, and Signature decks to sort who gets what Lotrek finally cracked and realized he had to slow down. Add to that he's trying to finish the GROTESK and INFERNO, no new update, he has to be INSANELY busy.

I got my SACRED decks from him so I'm not worried about not getting my ICONS (TRIAL, DEMO, Signature, and extras). I just want Lotrek to be ok.
Move on, nothing to see here.

He said he'll ship Black Mass along with Icons Imperial but that was before Black Gold/Silver/Inferno came about so I guess those may be included. Also I think time is going to linking those 2-3 orders together. This will be the biggest haul for me ever.

I'm sure this was mentioned before but can someone remind me the difference between the non-rounded edged cards and the rounded edged ones?

The picture of the card you're holding is from the normal Imperial deck (gold eagle) and the ones below are from the reverse black tuck (silver eagle).

Wow! Finally people are getting their decks!
I sent the last packages two days ago (only a few demo are to be sent tomorrow). I have all the tracking numbers but I'm afraid I'll have to give them on request, eventually. It's a work that is done manually and I clearly underestimated the time I need to match all the receipts with the names...

As for the non rounded cards, they are from one of the print runs that were scrapped. I thought it was a good idea to include these in your packages.

I got a rather nice parcel today!
4x icons imperial
1x icons imperial silver
1x trial edition
1x signature edition
2 cards from demo edition (I think)

No demo deck in this package - but I can hardly complain! :D

So excited, looks like I'll be getting mines today. As for the Queen pic, I wonder if it has anything to do with the 3rd deck in the series. .

Which one is the ICONS Imperial Silver? I guess I somehow missed that...

Anyone have a close up of the Trial deck? It's missing from my package. :(

Btw, I didn't get a print but I did get 4 packets of the rounded & non-rounded cards! This is great since I don't open the sealed decks!

These were worth the wait to be done right! I counted all the cards just to make sure they were there. :D Lotrek can take a breather for now until September comes.

It's the top left deck on the right hand side (sorry about the out of focus shot!). It was a super limited run available on a very limited tier and as part of the 4 deck tier. THe gold and sliver foiling on the back is reversed in this deck.

The trial edition is next to it - (and has trial edition written along one edge)
