This is the list of Official decks:
+(2)Black Mass Gold & Silver (part of 1st KS project)
+(2)Grotesk Macabre Black Gold & Silver (2nd KS project)
+(1)Grotesk Inferno (available during Grotesk Macabre Black G&S project)
+(1)Grotesk Bronze (which some may have forgot)
+(1)Grotesk Inverted Inferno (the current KS project with the Signature deck available soon)
Test Runs (imperfect decks)
-(2)Grotesk Black (G&S)
-(2)Black Mass (G&S)
-(1)Grotesk Inferno
So as of now, 7 real official decks and 5 decks that are not. Signature Inferno should be the 8th official deck.
I would argue that the standard and limited edition Grotesk Macabre decks are also part of this series, leading to a total of 10 decks in the series (15 including test runs). It may be best to not calculate the total price of the complete series

Read the latest update, looks like it's time to finish the series!
I'f I foillow correctly you are putting red foil on cards with red stock? The natural next step is to put foil on the foil, with some added foil embelishments on top of the foiled foil.

Not exactly. I use red stock but I print it full bleed with black ink background. This way the cards are black but after cutting the sides are red! Eheh...

You're right but it made more sense to put all of the decks that we haven't received yet so people can be up to date with what's going on to remind them and clear out confusion.

Looks like it's been a success!
I'd be curious though as to whether there may be a lag? As I refreshed the page the total amount pledged kept going up but the pledge tier had not appeared for me yet (?)

Nevermind it, it's probably just people trying out how to change their reward beforehand. It did appear later though, as usual with your releases (not blaming you), my computer showed 00:03 before any tier appeared on screen. In any case the pledges increased from ~14000 to ~22000, so thats about 120 decks sold,

Congrats on another successful campaign Lotrek,
In for 1 of each, shame I couldn't afford more this time.
Am I right in thinking there'll be 150 Signature Decks printed?
Also curious as to what you will release next, Hieronymus or Oath - Royal Edition?

I'll print about 170 Signature decks. I want to have a few for friends and family here as well as a few for myself. I'm an avid collector of my decks!
As for the next, probably the "OATH - Player's edition". Printed by one of the 3 big companies, a simple deck introducing my take on the traditional courts.

Hey @Cardigans,
Where'd your rant about Lotrek not delivering MACABRE and him talking about
As for my next deck
go or did you have a talk with Lotrek or moderator about it and delete it since I was trying to respond and was timed out but still copied it? Or, if you backed any MACABRE decks, read the updates and get an understanding on all the problems?
I hope you got information to put things in proper perspective so you know what a nightmare financially, physically, and emotionally this has been on Lotrek and us backers who want the best decks soon as possible and Lotrek healthy and still creative.

I missed that but maybe I should had made clear that I'm talking about the deck I'll release AFTER I finish and send my current projects.
I was just replying to a question...

I'm sure 99.9% of your backers here know that but he wanted you to deliver everything before you dare think of creating another deck.
Good luck!

I've always bought all version of all Lotrek decks (yes I have to have them all), but this will be the first time I'm going to pass, it's just getting too much financially and emotionally lol.

From the latest update, good to know that all of the past decks are completed except for the Signature Inferno deck.
Also what's the progress on the Bronze Grotesk deck? Seems like that's the forgotten deck since it wasn't on Kickstarter.

Coincidentally I just messaged him on fb to ask this same thing. I'lllet you know if there is a reply, or maybe he sees this and lets us know here

Grotesk Bronze is finished, too. I just forgot to mention it as it's only 50 decks and was foiled along with the Black Silver edition.
Thanks for reminding me

Which update is this? I don't seem to have received this update, and i don't see it posted on Kickstarter. Would someone please be kind enough to PM the contents to me? I'm not sure why I didn't get it....

I'm not sure if he's done it on KS, but I've been following along on Facebook where he posts fairly frequent updates:
https://www.facebook.com/oathplayingcards/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
The last update says there was an issue with the foiling on the Signature:
"A little problem appeared in Signature edition foiling. [...] Now the plate must be redone and this will take a couple of days. Thankfully, I spotted it at the very beginning and no good sheets were wasted. So, apart from this small drawback all is good."

...Just pointing out that I'm glad to see Lotrek relatively quite and what I mean by that is I'm glad he's not showing us teaser pics of 100 new decks and overloading himself with work. What I'd like to believe is that he's quietly working on finishing up Black Mass (cannot wait for mine!) without any issues. What I fear is that he's working on finishing up Black Mass but running into issues. Hope all is well, Lotrek- can't wait for these puppies and then your next teaser!

Well hopefully that means Macabre is just about to near the finish line! (trying to stay optimistic
