Ooops, we did not account for the Christmas break. We apologize for the previous update that promised you would be able to order add-on items by now.
The add-on list to order these items, and surveys to collect your shipping addresses, cannot go out until after January 1st. The people who must review and approve these before they may be posted won't be back in their offices until the week of January 4.
We hope to accomplish these tasks as soon as possible and then post an update letting you know when they go out to our supporters.
Thanks for your patience and understanding.
May you all have a healthy and safe New Year!

Happy holidays, everyone! Sometime after Christmas and before January 1st we plan to:
1) Send the list and order form for add-ons; and
2) Send out the post-Kickstarter survey to get your shipping addresses.
As soon as possible after January 1st we will confirm shipping prices based on each pledge's address, and maybe have the production schedule to get the games printed, assembled, and shipped.
Thank you for your support and patience!

Ashley Dowling asked for more information about the WW1 minigames that Dana designed. The set of 4 minigames will be one of the add-ons offered, and to read about what they are and why they were created, go here.
The list of add-ons includes:
• Extra dice
• Extra decks of cards (yes, ALL the cards including stretch goals)
• Deluxe 1/16-inch thick Decks & Discards mat, and separate Battle Mat, both printed on non-stick mouse pad material
NOTE: If you buy the extra decks of cards and deluxe mats, you'll get the extra dice for free
• Set of 4 WW1 minigames designed by Dana (one an award winner)
• Set of 9 issues of World War One Illustrated magazine created and edited by Dana
• Limited copies of Rodger MacGowan's box cover art sheets for the award-winning Paths of Glory board game, and MacGowan & Lombardy's The Great War card game, signed by Rodger
Prices, including shipping costs, will be coming from Backerkit.

Thank you to everyone for your support of this Kickstarter! We wanted to let you know that everyone who pledged will receive a survey from Backerkit for your shipping address, and a survey asking a few questions such as where you heard about our Kickstarter. (For example, on Twitter, a Facebook page, Instagram, blogger, etc.)
ADD-ONS are coming soon. The complete list, with shipping prices, will be sent by Backerkit. Many of the add-ons have no extra shipping cost if they can be sent to the same address with the game in the continental USA.

We posted an illustrated 2-page backstory about why the War of the Worlds expansion was created, and explains science fiction author H.G. Wells' connection to The Great War. It can be downloaded in several places on the Lombardy Studios website, including here.
