So, it will be a set? Order and Chaos?

[LasVegasCards]

Want

[dawn]

Looks like it’s finally time for me to hop on board the Gio train!

[Bradius]

The design remind me a bit of this campaign:

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/12 ... &term=bolt

The name and style kind of remind me of the First Order in Star Wars.

[Magic Tapp]

To me, this is more reminiscent of the Soviet constructivism movement of 1920s and 1930s.



But I think that ultimately this is more of the 1984 theme.

I think it'll be Order Imperium and Revolutio Maybe the next project will be Chaos??

[chicken_ql]

Really can't wait

[robcan0630]

These look great Gio!

[Eric Lee]

Knowing Gio, the betrayer that he is, there's going to be a 3rd deck. Order , Revolution. Will the 3rd deck be Anarchy/Chaos? Then 1 more Holofoil Red Chaos version.... geez... Gio's getting as bad as Lotrek now!

(For those not sure what's going on, scroll all the way down the preview link and click the link at the bottom. Besides great themed decks, Gio also make great preview campaigns on his site.)

[Thirdway Industries]

Thank you for posting Order!

Some extra info for my UC friends:

- Yes, it will be a set, 2 or 3 decks. One is, of course Order Imperium. The other might be a Revolutio
- It's inspired by WW2 propaganda (of all nations), Soviet Constructivism, Brutalism - and I've also watched some graphics and pictures of the 1800's.
- This is a bit different than my usual decks - no lines, just shapes and few gradients. More graphic design and less illustration.
- It's inspired by the George Orwell's novel 1984 - one of my favourite books ever. But it's a completely new story and there are not direct references from the book. Both for copyright issues and also because I prefer tell new stories.
- I'm evaluating USPCC and Cartamundi for this projects. Both are awesome. Maybe I'll use both again.
- The deck will be a product of the fictional party called "The Order" - it will feature a lot of propaganda characters and there will be some cool Ad Cards.
- The Order didn't pay me for design their deck. But I can't complain.

The Order didn't pay me for design their deck. But I can't complain.

That is exactly what they would want you to write, if they would have paid you!

[MagikFingerz]

- The Order didn't pay me for design their deck.

Or did they?

But I can't complain.

Reminds me of an old joke:

Mordecai is leaving the Soviet Union to start a new life in Israel. The time has come for his final interview with the KGB before he is allowed to leave the country.

He is taken to an unmarked building, sat down in a metal chair, and a KGB agent begins to ask him questions.

"So," says the agent, "You want leave Soviet Union? Is for political reasons? You don't like communist party?"

"No," says Mordecai, "I can't complain."

"Is for economic reasons then. You cannot find job? You cannot find apartment?"

"No, can't complain."

"Is it the censorship then? The food shortages? The pollution?"

"I can't complain."

"Then why would you want to leave Mother Russia for decadent West?"

"Because," says Mordecai, "there, I can complain."

This project *totally* speaks my language. I am *alllll over* this one.

Can't wait! This promises to be your most amazing theme yet!

Nice Easter egg

[dawn]

Will the EBs be time-limited or amount-limited? (Aka do I need a 1am alarm )

[Thirdway Industries]

@Vasta - Ministry of Communication is proud, citizen!

@Dawn - Amount Limited... only for the fastest citizens
I think 25x slots for each tier, around 100 EB slots

[dawn]

Darn, why did I pick up that weekend shift...?

Thanks for the info, I will try and help bring glory to this launch!

[portcullis]

Dammit Gio you’re not doing us in the Antipodes any favours. Looks like I’ll have to behave myself next Friday night. And for future reference: 8am Eastern Daylight is a much friendlier time for the Australian East Coast & NZ: 10pm/midnight.

Either way, I’ll be there.

[chicken_ql]

Oh man I can't wait! But those amount limited early birds

[Eric Lee]

What, not timed EB and only 25 per tier? Down with such elitist bourgeoisie propaganda! Let's support the Revolutio to fight for the rights of us proles and the sleep deprived!

[masagin303]

Launch day announced!

What an awesome microsite! Only those AM-PM time annotations don't really make sense when using 24-hour clock.

[Thirdway Industries]

@portcullis - I am very sorry
I pick a time I can easily manage, usually I have to be there during the first hours of the campaign for reply to questions and eventually fix my own errors (hopefully not haha). Friday afternoon is quite good for me because I can stay there several hours.

@chicken_ql - Don't worry, EB are nice, but all the campaign have very good prices I am almost sure that everyone will be there during the first day will snag a good deal.
The most discounted (and limited) rewards are the big ones, Bricks and Boxes.

@Eric Lee - The Orders for the Order, everyone is equal. Just some are more equal than others

@masagin303 - You're right - but everytime people asked me "PM or AM" so I've included that info too hehe.

Some extra info for my UC buddies

- You probably already know, but there is another unlimited deck, Revolutio. For the subversive ones who does not appreciate the glory of the unique party (shame on you)
- What is a TWI campaign without a Limited Edition? For the members of the Upper Party, the Order will be Electus.
- Big rewards are more worthwile than my previous campaign. For example, usually my mix brick were 2 Limited + 5/5 Unlimited. In Order, I've opted for 4LE + 4/4 UE. This should be a good thing, I guess.
- Not sure about the printer, because Cartamundi's USPCC acquisition. My idea is print everything in USA Uspcc factory, but I might print something in Belgium Cartamundi Factory too. I'm not evaluating other options (so, or Cartamundi, or USPCC)
- Order will have a very nice story (I'd say one of my best yet), but you need to be perceptive to get all the secrets.



Gio

[portcullis]

Gio, it's all good, you can't please everyone all of the time. I'll just have to have 2 drinks with my meal after work and not 3 if I want to make it home by 1am. You know I'll show up.

Speaking of, Lotrek's new deck launches in a few hours. Better get some sleep.

[SirCrunoke]

I really like the design from this campaign from the beginning! Obviously a lot of work went into it.
Really excited for the campaign!

Speaking of, Lotrek's new deck launches in a few hours. Better get some sleep.

To live in the same time zone as Lotrek is a blessing.
Also in the same zone as Giovanni, so double blessing.

[vasta41]

Order will have a very nice story (I'd say one of my best yet), but you need to be perceptive to get all the secrets.

Is it possible to be perceptive and get all the secrets without opening the cellophane?

[Thirdway Industries]

Is it possible to be perceptive and get all the secrets without opening the cellophane?

Well... probably not. Some secrets will be revealed by the cards.
Some others (like the Cigarette micro site) will be available through campaign page and updates for everyone.

I know, I was only trolling

[STLBluesNut]

Will we see a return of nsfw and dual courts? I suppose the theme does not lend itself well to the nsfw part, but I really like those features you put into the special decks.
