Hello UC!
I've opened the preorders for Conquerors - all the instruction can be found here > https://www.patreon.com/posts/conquerors-26704359" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

It was a bit more complex than I've expected, but I hope everything is easy to understand and cool.
As promised there are several options to get the decks, through Patreon is cheaper, but not so different than the "standard" preorder available on my website.

If you see errors or silly things, tell me :)

Thank you!

Gio

The preorder will be available until 30th June (decks can still go sold out, but are relatively many) :uggrin:

Anyways, lol.

@Gio

On your store, both decks show the same story and cards. Will both decks have the same courts? Perhaps the premium deck will have Gio style dual courts or Gio style NSFW courts?

I think he said both decks will be the same to cut costs. Only the tuck will be different. Maybe the next one we can have some unique courts. Once he gets more patrons :D

If that is the case, that is really a shame. I cannot think of a Gio set that has the same courts across the decks. Frowny face.

I am happy the bundle is cheaper than the Victoria alone or I would buy just the Victoria version if the cards are the same.

As Gio's Patreon post mentioned he has done it before with Lunatica Equinox/Chimera and Solstice/Phoenix. The only difference is there's a single SE/LE pair instead of two.

The way I read the TI listing for Conquerors Victoria, it will not be available for purchase separately anyhow.

Yeah, after I posted that I immediately thought about the Lunatica series. Still a bummer, I love his courts and the more the better.

Hello guys, yes, Audax and Victoria share the same courts: this project is an experiment and I had to create it this way to make it sustainable and offer a good value.

Trying to do a subscription program with USPCC (or Cartamundi) decks is a bit crazy as you can imagine :-)

Victoria might be available separately in future, but probably the future cost of Victoria alone will be higher than the couple.

Anyways... I have some surprises incoming for Patrons, but my next project will be a Kickstarter. Almost for sure with all different courts :mrgreen:

Thank you!

If both decks are the same, then it's quite an expensive tuck case for the VIctoria, right? 18USD vs 55 USD and only the tucks are limited to 500, not the decks?

Tbh, Gio's website prices on his decks are quite high across the board in my opinion. It is definitely best to catch them during a KS or one of his tremendous sales. $45 is pretty good for the pair of Gio's decks.

That being said, he is one artist i cannot get enough of. For some it's Lotrek or JR, but for me, Gio is my must have artist.

Victoria will be limited to 777, I wanted to have a little more room ;-)

And yes, Victoria retail is very high, but my idea is sell as many as possible in those two months during the preorder time (via Patreon or website) which is way cheaper :)

Patreon Sword Package include both decks for $30 (incl. shipping for some countries) and "standard" preorder is $45 for both, shipping not included but very cheap (should be $3 for US)

Victoria will have a 3-foils, embossed box with a very nice paper, probably with a metallic effect like Omnia: TGA (I've talked about this with GW yesterday).

Oh for sure Gio, that's why I pointed out getting them like now on a preorder or KS is much better. [emoji847] I wasn't trying to dog you.

As always, USPCC did an awesome job, inks are super metallic, print is perfect and I am really happy.

An update on Conquerors (it was requested on Monolith thread)

> Audax is 100% complete and it's awesome. Pics here > https://www.thirdwayindustries.com/prod ... ors-audax/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
> Victoria is completed (saw a preview and it's stunning) but not assembled yet. They should be ready next week.

Delivery should be in early july as promised both for Patreon and website preorder (shipping all together).

If you missed the Preorder (through Patreon or Website) there is still time, until end of june!

Looks great! I'm going to get some tax returns on early September, let's see if these are still available at that point.

Almost for sure, yes - just a little more expensive than the preorder, of course.

Thank you for the kind words!

Yeah unfortunately mine was the generic GW email. Which is kinda odd given Monolith email (I just realised) WAS from ShipStation.

The only other deck I can think is due is Playing Arts coz I just checked and the “half brick” (2 campaigns) I’m expecting from Nicolai is still at least a couple of months away and Lotrek is HOPEFULLY fulfilling next weekend.
