Why did you move to BackerKit from Kickstarter?
BackerKit offers a whole bunch of new marketing features that we had to cobble together to make work with KS. A new modern feel, some reductions in redtape - and we were going to use the BackerKit service on KS anyway! Why not just - jump on over to BackerKit then!

Will addons ship with the book?
By Night Studios will be shipping out these books as soon as they arrive with the PDFs sent out before the books. All physical add-ons/stretch goals will be shipped with the physical book(s) once those are packaged up and ready for shipping.

Is Laws of the Night REALLY already written?
Absolutely! Writing for it didn’t start much after War of Ages and we had a much bigger team assigned. Jason Herman and his team didn’t just write one book… they wrote three!

Can you tell me more about what the Bloodhunted and Forsaken Tiers entail?
For the Antagonist tiers (Bloodhunted and Forsaken), you’ll work with our writers Corrigan and Jason to craft a signature NPC for the book. Where the other entries are more generically labeled templates, yours will be able to have a short background and probably a signature ‘power’ similar to how Hunters in the Second Inquisition book have, subject to approval and setting appropriateness.

If I pledge at the Antedeluvian or above level, do I get the Methusela Plus goodies? What about Retail tier?
No- the Methuselah Plus goodies (card decks, pendant) are JUST for that level.
Antedeluvian and above get up to Methuselah level goodies, so :
A handcrafted gemstone dice, beautiful hardback deluxe version of the book which will include bonus content, full color art, and more. A Soft-Cover “Pocket Edition” version of the book, a PDF of the book, as well as access to the Add-On Store.
You will gain all stretch goal rewards, our thanks, and to be listed as a backer in the book.
Retail level backers get ONLY the books listed, and access to the add-on store, no other tier benefits or goodies.

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.
