Reprints Away!

tl;dr Reprints started shipping. Extra 60 and 90 card Supplemental decks were printed, so backers who did not receive the extras they ordered originally will get them now.
Reprints have begun shipping to backers. However, two important things to understand about that:
1) This entire process has been an unexpected expense, so to reduce costs, we're using a smaller fulfillment team.
2) Selecting and packing the replacement cards each backer is entitled to is a manual process.
As a result, we expect the pace of shipments to be relatively slower than the initial release, and because the cards each backer is entitled to have to be identified manually, the error rate is likely to be somewhat higher than the first go-around.
In most cases we are shipping via post, so we are unlikely to have individual tracking numbers and the delivery time will be a bit longer.
Even at this late date, if your address has changed, let us know as soon as possible! We've already sent the shipping lists to our fulfillment people, so if you have an address change now there's a considerably larger risk of misdelivery, but it's better to tell us than to let your cards get lost in the void.
You can check your address on BackerKit by going here:
Note, you will not be able to change any information, but you can always let us know and we'll make the update on the back end.
We will be releasing a complete list of the reprinted cards per set this weekend, so once your replacements arrive, please check them against the correction roster. If there's anything missing, we'll do our best to fix it for you, but we're looking to complete fulfillment then circle back and address oversights, so we appreciate your forbearance.
In a bit of good news, since we were reprinting cards, we decided to print enough extra 60 and 90 card Supplemental Decks to ensure all the backers who ordered extras would receive them.
This supersedes our update of January 10th, 2018. All backers who ordered extra Supplemental Decks and did not originally receive them should find replacements in the new shipment.
Again, this applies only to backers who ordered extra 60 or 90 card Supplemental Decks.
We appreciate your support as we work through this reprint process. As ever, please feel free to reach out with questions or concerns by commenting here, messaging us on Kickstarter, dropping by our forums (www.travellerccg.com) or email ([email protected]).
Thank you!
Now You're Just Being Annoying

We are distributing address lists to our fulfillment people at end of business today.
So you must get any address change in to us by 6:00 PM Pacific Time. Failure to do so will seriously complicate efforts to get your cards to you.
To be safe, everyone should really double check their information, but for those of you who have moved or who experienced any delivery difficulty the first time around, it is imperative that you log into your BackerKit account and check the information.
Please be aware, you will not be able to change the information (because all pledges have been marked as "shipped" from back when we sent the original product), but we can on the back end. So you'll have to email us with the new address, ([email protected]) or send us a message over Kickstarter. Or both. But email is the best.
If you have already sent us a new address, it should already be updated, but again, mistakes do happen, so it hurts nothing to double check.
Thanks!
A Broken Record

Reprints may start mailing to backers as early as June 25th, so it is imperative anyone who needs an address change gets it in immediately.
Address lists are going to be distributed to our fulfillment people very soon, and after that, mistakes can only be corrected after the fact -- and anyone who has had delivery difficulties in the past, whether with this project or some other product will know how intractable they can be.
To be safe, everyone should really double check their information, but for those of you who have moved or who experienced any delivery difficulty the first time around, it is imperative that you log into your BackerKit account and check the information.
Please be aware, you will not be able to change the information (because all pledges have been marked as "shipped" from back when we sent the original product), but we can on the back end. So you'll have to email us with the new address, ([email protected]) or send us a message over Kickstarter. Or both. But email is the best.
For those of you who have already reached out to us, I believe we're current on all those changes, but again, it never hurts to double check.
Thank you!
Like Christmas in July

tl;dr Reprints to begin shipping in July. Updated rulebook and icon key with Sequence of Play (also known as the back cover of the rulebook) added to our downloads page.
Shipping of reprinted cards to backers set to begin in July. The entire process will likely take a few months, so we appreciate your continuing patience as we do our best to get our backers the highest quality product we can.
It's critical that backers have their address information up to date. You can check your listed address on BackerKit but you won't be able to change it. If the information is incorrect or out of date, please let us know through a message here on Kickstarter, or via email ([email protected]).
Towards that end, updated versions of the rulebook and the icon key (with sequence of play) available for download on our website. There are no major changes, but we fixed a few typos, clarified some questions that had arisen on our forums, added to the list of Keywords to include some omitted entries (like Reflec) and to include some effects that aren't present in the current card pool, but that we know are coming. Finally, we added the Sequence of Play to the back cover.
Icon Key with Sequence of Play
We're still looking for playtesters to help put upcoming sets through their paces. If you think you may be interested, please swing by our forums. These upcoming sets are intended to include the remaining backer cards, so if you're particularly interested in the mechanics of the backer cards, you may want to come on by!
There's some exciting news on the distribution front as well. Thanks to your support, the Traveller Customizable Card Gamewill be available for retail distribution in the fall, through Publisher Services Inc. (PSI). If you want to see it in your local friendly hobby shop, ask your retailer to be on the lookout!
Thank you again for your continued support of our project. Not only would this have been impossible without you, it would have been pointless to have embarked upon this journey without having such an incredible community to serve.
A Brief Update

– Fri, Jun 08, 2018 at 08:38:05 PM
We'll have a larger update on the reprint in a few days, probably early next week. Things are progressing and we'll be ready to ship soon.
This means yet another request to check and make sure you address update is current and accurate on BackerKit.
