#1079; Of Genocide in General

Comic Transcripts

[[A welldressed Gaxian is talking to a man lounging on a couch.]]
Gaxian: Enjoying Thanksgiving?
Human: I’d get into it more if we could stop making NATIONAL HEROES out of the villains from The Scarlet Letter

Gaxian: Bummed by all the genocide, huh?
Gaxian: If it helps, the first Americans THEMSELVES genocided their predecessors, the WUGOTAI HAT PEOPLE
Human: That both isn’t true and doesn’t help

[[The Gaxian leans in to continue speaking.]]
Gaxian: And YOUR society, the monsters of the moment, will be genocided soon enough by the direhawks of Ahad-Zul
Gaxian: The THEY’LL get genocided by the paleocarnated volcano elves… who themselves will fall quite dramatically to the STAR-KIN STARFISH… who won’t last DAY against the slime mold of Mokress Omega Seven through Nine
Human: WHAT are you TALKING about

[[The Gaxian’s neck bends into an angular shape; he sweats, flustered.]]
Gaxian: I
Gaxian: Have said way way way way way WAY too much

My US inventory of games is now in-country, but still being staged at the fulfillment centers. It’s being distributed to regional warehouses, so the actual shipping to backers happens more efficiently. I hope the bulk of US shipping will start next week.

These are what the cartons (and games) look like!

I am also waiting on the bonus cards to be finished printing! I ended up needing many more of those than I had anticipated, so I decided to have the game factory print those too, for perfect matching with the base game cards.

Most people will be receiving two separate mailings: the game itself, and “anything else” (bonus cards and/or add-ons) which will be sent by me personally.

As of today, 86% of backers have completed their surveys so far! That’s pretty good, but it’s not everyone. I know YOU PERSONALLY have already completed YOURS though, so no worries!!

We have now moved OFF of Kickstarter and ONTO BackerKit for any new orders. You can bundle a game with basically anything else I sell on that there website, it’s pretty nuts!
