An Important Update about the Future of Arcs

Dear Backers,
I have some important news for you all. Kyle and I will be leaving Leder Games and starting a new company, Buried Giant Studios. This separation is amicable, and we wish the best of luck to our friends at Leder Games.
As part of this separation, Buried Giant Studios has purchased both Arcs and Oath from Leder Games. Going forward, any support inquiries regarding Arcs should be directed to [email protected].
Finally, I’m happy to announce that the new company’s first project will be an Arcs expansion. We’ll have a lot more to share about the project soon, but if you want to be notified of its launch, click here!
Blighted Reach Errata Pack Now Available
about 1 year ago
– Mon, Mar 17, 2025 at 09:46:36 AM
Hi folks,
An errata pack for those who purchased The Blighted Reach Campaign Expansion is now available on our webstore for $2 USD with free shipping worldwide.
Please note that if purchasing with other items, our standard shipping cost fees apply to your order and our free shipping offering applies to errata pack purchasing only.
What's In The Errata Pack?
This pack contains 23 updated cards for the first printing of Arcs: The Blighted Reach Campaign Expansion. It fixes some minor errors, typos, and unclear interactions, and contains the correct Navy Reprisal card which was missing from the first printing due to an error.
Rest assured, these are not game breaking errors (outside of the Navy Reprisal misprint) and these cards are also planned to be included in a future product. Nothing is on the schedule at this time but we do know that we will include errata updates in future products as well.
You do not need this Errata Pack if you only purchased the Arcs base game.
Shipping Timeline
We expect an influx of orders after this update and therefore anticipate orders taking anywhere between 2-8 weeks for arrival, depending on your shipping country. Tracking is not available to all countries but all orders will receive a shipment notification once your package has left the fulfillment warehouse.

July Shipping Update, Praise for Arcs, and Studio News!
over 1 year ago
– Tue, Jul 16, 2024 at 09:48:34 AM
Hi everyone!
It’s been a while. We wanted to have the most complete update we could, and it’s taken a while to get everything underway.
Please read below on the current shipping status for your Arcs pledges by region and for some updates from our studio you may have missed since our last update!
Late Survey Submissions If you did not complete your survey by our last Kickstarter update on May 14th, your order will be processed as a second wave of orders within your region. Regions that have completed their first wave already will start shipping their second wave shipments by the end of this month and second wave shipments in ongoing or pending regions will be processed as soon as first wave shipments are completed.
Updates By Region North America First wave shipments for North America are fully complete and we will be starting second wave shipments for late survey submissions over the next couple of weeks. Tracking information will be emailed once shipped as usual and should all be complete by the end of the month.
Australia/New Zealand First wave shipments for Australia and New Zealand are fully complete and we will be starting second wave shipments for late survey submissions over the next couple of weeks. Tracking information will be emailed once shipped as usual and should all be complete by the end of the month.
Asia VFI shipping status can be accessed on their hub page here. Estimates on this page are for when our inventory is expected at the local fulfiller for countries with additional transit time from VFI. From these local fulfillers, orders will be processed and shipped locally to your door. This process will continue all throughout this month and next month for certain countries. Please refer to the hub page for further details.
United Kingdom Due to a delay with the container from the factory arriving at the port, we did not hit our original estimates to the UK, so thank you to everyone for your patience. We’re happy to say that the shipment to the UK has left the warehouse in Germany. Zatu will be handling local fulfillment for our UK backers. Historically, this transit time to the UK takes approximately 1-2 weeks and once in Zatu’s hands, they are prepared to commence shipping shortly after. We are currently projecting backer shipments to start before the end of the month and backers will receive tracking notices once shipped.
Europe and Rest of World As with the UK orders, that container delay has put us slightly off from our original estimates, but we are happy to say that Europe and Rest of World shipments commenced on the 5th and are well underway! At the current rate of fulfillment, we are expecting all first wave shipments to be completed over the next 1-2 weeks and second wave shipments will be handled shortly after. Transit time from the time you receive your tracking information typically takes 1-2 weeks to arrive at your door.
Retailers Retail orders are handled after individual backer shipments have completed. For those in regions that have already completed their first wave shipments, you should have received your retailer orders already. For those in regions that are still pending or underway, they will be processed after first shipments have completed.
To contact us about your order, please refrain from using our support email for assistance. Clay, our sales manager, is dedicated to assisting retailers and may be reached at [email protected] for any questions regarding your retail pledge.
Praise for Arcs! We’ve had an amazing few weeks of positive review videos dropping for Arcs. If you haven’t watched yet, support these wonderful channels!
Studio News Since finishing Arcs, we’ve been very busy at the studio working on our next titles. This spring we ran a Kickstarter campaign for Oath’s first expansions and the team has been busy working on development. If you missed the campaign, you can still secure a late pledge.

Address Lockdown and Rough Shipping Timeline
almost 2 years ago
– Tue, May 14, 2024 at 07:23:47 AM
Hey everyone!
With the product on the water, we wanted to provide everyone with some rough shipping timelines and let everyone know that we will be locking down shipping addresses!
When Will Addresses Lock?
Addresses will lock on May 16th. A 48-hour final notice email reminder will be sent today.
How do I update my address?
If you need to update your address, you can do so through your Backerkit account here.
Updating your address after the lockdown on the 16th will require you to email us at [email protected] for assistance.
I’m moving, what address should I use?
Right now, we are recommending that you use addresses valid between the months of June to July 2024 for all regions. If you are moving during this time, we recommend using your newer address or, if possible, to use a friend or family member’s address, just in case.
Rough Shipping Timelines by Region
North America
For North America, we’ve partnered with Quartermaster Logistics for our delivery, and we’re expecting shipping to begin by early-June. Fulfillment will be ongoing for several weeks, and we’ll provide updates as shipping progresses. Tracking will be provided and emailed to all backers.
Please note: for Canadian orders, you may see a week or two delay from the time your tracking number is provided and when you’ll first see movement on your tracking status. This is perfectly normal and is part of QML’s process for Canadian orders.
Australia and New Zealand
For fulfillment, we have partnered with VR Distribution and we are expecting shipping to begin by mid-June. Fulfillment will be ongoing for a few weeks and tracking will be provided and emailed to all backers.
Asia
We are expecting shipping to begin in early June. Delivery timelines will vary depending on your country but once fulfillment begins, you can refer to the Kickstarter Hub Status page from VFI to learn about your specific delivery ETA. Please note that hub arrivals are when stock is due at port and then will be handled by a local courier to handle delivery to your door.
UK
For deliveries to the UK, we are working with Zatu Games. We’re expecting fulfillment to begin by early July and all backers will receive tracking emails once shipped.
Europe and Rest of World
We are working with Fulfillment EU to handle all European and rest of world orders. We’re currently expecting fulfillment to begin by late June and you’ll receive tracking information once your order ships. Deliveries may take anywhere from 1-3 weeks depending on your country of destination.
Retail Backers
Please refrain from using our support email for any support or assistance. Clay, our sales manager, is dedicated to assisting retailers and may be reached at [email protected] for any questions regarding your retail pledge.
In terms of shipping timeline, retailer pledges will ship once all individual backer pledges have shipped, usually within a week or two from the expected completion date. Please refer to the above regional timelines for a rough idea on when individual backer shipping will start.
Please email us at [email protected] for any questions or assistance. Please do not use the Kickstarter messaging system to contact us.

Fulfillment Timeline Update
almost 2 years ago
– Tue, Apr 16, 2024 at 09:47:10 AM
Dear Backers,
We know many of you have been eager for news about the game’s fulfillment, and I’m happy to say that we have a little update to share with you all.
Of course, I wish I could tell you that the games had miraculously arrived early, but it looks like things are largely going to schedule. At this moment, the games are still on the water, but they should be arriving in port here in the United States in about four weeks. From there it will take a week or two to get to our fulfillment partner (Quartermaster Logistics). We're estimating that shipping will begin at the start of June. For a project of this size, it usually takes a few weeks to get everything in the mail.
European fulfillment is on a similar schedule, but will likely be running 2 to 3 weeks behind fulfillment here in the US. I want to be clear that this is not because we have any kind of special policy. Sometimes the ships make it to the EU first, sometimes they don’t.
For folks in Asia and the rest of the world, we anticipate that the fulfillment will occur within a similar timeline to the United States, though it may ship a little earlier. Again, it sometimes works out that our backers in Asia get their games first, and sometimes it doesn’t. There are many moving parts to this process and our priority always remains that everyone gets their games as soon as we can manage it.
Other Studio News
Meanwhile, we’re doing our best to keep busy here in the studio. Nick and the Ahoy team have been navigating the new factions through final stages of development. In fact, we’ve got a little surprise that we’ll be showing off today in a studio playthrough.
