What is print and play?
Print and Play (PnP) means that a game is not published in a physical form. Instead, you’ll receive a digital version of the map sheet, game boards and all tokens in printable PDF format - all that you need to bring is your own dice. Empire and Flames has been designed as a PnP experience - simply print out the components using your desired materials and you’re ready to jump straight into the action.

How are the files going to be delivered?
We will be using BackerKit as our pledge manager for Empire in Flames. You will receive an email link to download your PDF files approximately three weeks after the successful conclusion of the campaign. Please note that stretch goal rewards may be delivered at a later date than the base game.

What sized dice will I need to play Empire in Flames?
We recommend playing with 12mm dice, though we have also created versions of the Empire Command and Rebel Logic boards that are compatible with 16mm dice. In a pinch, the game will still be playable with dice of any size.

What is BackerKit?
BackerKit is a service that crowdfunded project creators use to keep track of hundreds to tens of thousands of backers—from shipping details, pledge levels, preferences and quantities, whether they have paid or had their card declined, special notes, and everything in between!
The BackerKit software and support team is independent from the campaign’s project team—BackerKit does not handle the actual reward shipping. For more information about the preparation or delivery status of your rewards, please check the project's updates page.
How does BackerKit work?
After the campaign ends, the project creator will send you an email with a unique link to your survey. You can check out a walkthrough of the process here.
I never received my invitation. How do I complete the survey?
The most common reasons for not receiving a survey email is that you may be checking an email inbox different from the email address you used to sign up with Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account, or it may be caught in your spam filter.
Confirm that the email address you are searching matches the email address tied to your Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or Tilt Pro account. If that doesn’t work, then try checking your spam, junk or promotions folders. You can also search for "backerkit” in your inbox.
To resend the survey to yourself, visit the project page and input the email address associated with your Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account.
How do I update my shipping address?
BackerKit allows you to update your shipping address until the shipping addresses are locked by the project creator. To update your address, go back to your BackerKit survey by inputting your email here.
When will my order be shipped, charged or locked?
That is handled directly by the project creator. BackerKit functions independently of the project itself, so we do not have control of their physical shipping timeline. If you want to check on the project’s status, we recommend reading over the project's updates page.
I completed the survey, but haven't received my rewards yet. When will they arrive?
As BackerKit does not actually handle any rewards or shipping, the best way to stay updated on the shipping timeline would be to check out the project's updates page.
