Dear backers,
Shipping to you will start soon!
USA and Canada
Great news for our North American backers! The pallets have arrived safely at my warehouse in Kentucky, and shipping to our U.S. backers will begin within the next few days.
At the same time, the games for our Canadian backers will be sent to BoardGameBliss, who will take care of shipping them throughout Canada.
So it won’t be long now before the games are on their way to you. Thank you so much for your patience and support!
Asia, Australia and New Zealand
Shipping from my warehouse in China is expected to begin within the next two weeks. Your games will soon be on their way to you!
Europe
I’ve been informed that the shipment should arrive at the customs office today. Hopefully, everything will go smoothly with customs, and the games will make their way to my warehouse in Austria within the next few days. As soon as they arrive, I’ll get them packed up and shipped out to you right away. We’re almost there, and I’m very much looking forward to getting the games into your hands!
All the best

The games are on their way

Dear backers,
The games have already been on their way to the USA and Europe for quite some time. There have been difficulties with both destinations:
USA: A new customs regulation introduced in June of this year requires a considerable amount of additional paperwork. On top of that, my previous importer is no longer willing to act as the importer. Over the past week, I have been in intensive contact with my shipping company, and we have now been able to resolve the issue. It just cost quite a bit of money and involved a mountain of paperwork. The games should therefore arrive at my warehouse in Kentucky soon and will be shipped from there to all of you.
Europe: Since August 12th, the new Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) has been in effect in the European Union. The idea itself is certainly a welcome one, but it also creates additional work, especially for small publishers, mainly in the form of more paperwork. Whether it will also result in additional costs remains to be seen.
Okay, enough whining. The games will soon be ready to be shipped to you.
All the best

Dear backers,
You will soon be notified that your pledge will be charged to your credit card. Please check that all your information is correct. If anything has changed, just let me know, and I'll update it for you.
I noticed something with my preview copy: my manufacturer meant well and printed every company logo on both sides of the tokens using laser printing.
That is a bit unfortunate for the stock price tokens, because many players like to flip the token over once a company has already operated. While this isn't actually necessary in 1880 Romania, since the game includes a turn order table, I personally still enjoy using that method.
Long story short, I've included an extra set of tokens that have the company logo on only one side. Since this leaves one token unused, you can use it as an income table marker if you have one.

Dear backers,
YES! I was holding the first physical copy of 1880 Romania in my hands. There is always something truly inspiring about holding a new game in your hands.
Watch the unboxing video here:
And here is a video showing all the components:
Production will now begin. I will keep you informed as soon as the shipping starts.

Dear backers,
Production has started
Here’s a first photo of the tokens. To avoid the tedious task of applying stickers, the tokens have been printed directly using UV printing.
The box will be of the same hight as my previous releases 1807 and 18ESP to have space for all the material.
