Hello folks! We hope you're enjoying your Voidrunner's Codex PDFs! We have a couple of housekeeping notes to share with you.
Character Sheets
Blank character sheets (including fillable versions) are now available on the official Level Up website. These include printer-friendly 'plain' sheets, and full-colour 'fancy' sheets.
Feedback Window Closing
We'll be closing the window for submitting errata this weekend. We will then prepare the final digital files for you (along with bookmarks, index, etc.) as well as the final print files for our printer.
Level Up Gateway
For those who missed it, we announced our Level Up Gateway platform this week. Level Up Gateway is a character builder for Level Up: Advanced 5th Edition, and is already well under development. You can read more at the link.
Thank you again for your support. We're really proud of these books! We'll have the final PDFs to you in a couple of weeks, and the printer will start work soon afterwards.
Happy voidrunning!

Proof Reading Stage
We are currently proofreading the Voidrunners Codex PDFs before sending the files to print. These are the first draft versions we have shared with you today.
There are lots of errors we are fixing and updating over the next few weeks! You will also see layout notes for images which will be replaced in the final file. Please ignore those! They won't be there in the actual release!
The early access PDF files we have sent today will be updated for you in a few weeks time with errata. You will be sent a DriveThruRPG link once the final files are ready.
If you head on over to your Kickstarter messages inbox, you'll find a link waiting for you to download your early access PDFs over the next hour.
You will be sent a DriveThruRPG link once the final proofreading is complete in the next few weeks.
(Note that's your Kickstarter messages inbox -- we don't know your email address! Kickstarter may or may not also notify you by email of the message depending on your notificationsettings, but it's waiting there for you here on Kickstarter.com in your messages inbox.)
Stretch Goal
We have a £100,000 stretch goal for a starship building web app for the Voidrunners Codex.
The starship builder will be freely available for anybody to use, and will use the rules found in the Star Captain's Manual (specifically, Appendix 1: Starship Construction Manual).
We’re just shy of this goal, ending at £97,778 . We are confident we will meet this goal with late pledges and upgrades on backerkit - so watch this space!
Fulfilment Plans
The Voidrunner’s Codex is our most ambitious project yet - three books, hundreds of tokens, dozens of maps, and a magnetic GM screen!
We’ve already started the manufacturing process and started prepping for the physical print. Below is a timeline of the project, and how we plan to get your rewards to you in the new year.
Backerkit Surveys
July 2024: Backerkit surveys go live. Choose any extra add-ons and give us your address.
September 2024: Backerkit surveys will be closed. You'll need to complete your survey, we'll do an update for the specific date here on Kickstarter and give you a 48 hours warning via backerkit.
Manufacturing
July & August 2024: Pre-production sampling process. I’ll do another update next month with more details on this process as it’s quite involved!
September 2024: Finalise order volumes when backerkit closes & mass production sample approval process.
October 2024: Mass production begins!
We’ve allowed two month extra time for delays and revisions in the manufacturing process - as sometimes this is needed. And we always expect things to slow down in December and January over the holidays.
Shipping
Depending on manufacturing timelines, shipping from the warehouse will be anytime from November to January. The goal is to ensure we have the box sets leave Shanghai well before the Spring Festival at the end of January.
Box Sets should arrive at warehouse in February 2025 at the latest (December 2024 at the earliest) ready to send out to backers
Customer Service
I’ll keep you updated every step of the way with backerkit, manufacturing, and shipping etc. We will keep you updated here on the Kickstarter page with updates and in the comments.
You can also message us directly here on Kickstarter via the messages, or you can email us directly to [email protected]. Myself, Morrus and Xin will always try to get back to you as quickly as possible.
Thank you for all your support!

Let's Talk Stretch Goals!
7 months ago

Hello folks! We're about halfway through the Voidrunner's Codex Kickstarter campaign so we figured it was time to share a stretch goal.
Now, as you know, we at ENP don't do stretch goals much--our focus is on fast fulfilment, and not piling on extra stuff which will delay that. We've seen hundreds of Kickstarters derailed like that (not ours, I hasten to add!)
This stretch goal, however, does not affect the production and delivery of the core product.
Starship Builder!
Yep, it's a starship building web app! If we are lucky enough to reach £100K in funding, we will provide a FREE online tool to build starships. Here's what it will look like:

The starship builder will be freely available for anybody to use, and will use the rules found in the Star Captain's Manual (specifically, Appendix 1: Starship Construction Manual).
If we make this stretch goal, the starship builder will be available very shortly after the Kickstarter ends. There won't be any waiting around for this one!
Thank you all for your support. We're so excited about the Voidrunner's Codex and can't wait to share it with you!

What a launch!

As it comes to the end of the day here in the UK, we wanted to thank everybody for their support. The Voidrunner's Codex funded in just 8 minutes, and we can't wait to get this gorgeous set into you hands. This is the most ambitious project we've undertaken in terms of physical assets--the sheer amount of stuff crammed into this set is incredible!
So, what's next? Well, yes, we do have a couple of stretch goals to reveal soon. As you may know, we at ENP don't really do stretch goals, because we've spent years building a reputation for fast and reliable fulfilment of our Kickstarters, without stretch goals delaying the product. In fact, we go so far as to have the work done before we launch, so all we need to do is press "print" -- which, in this case, means paying the printer!
However, we do have a couple of stretch goals which don't affect the physical product, and we'll talk more about those soon.
We'll also be previewing stuff all the way through the campaign, so do let us know in the comments what you'd like to see! In the meantime, here's a sneak peek at something--a look at a psyknight's starglaive!
The choices of color, and thus the energy type, of the starglaive depends on certain choices the psyknight makes and which Code of Conscience they adopt.
Anyway, let us know what you'd like to see, and thank you again so much for your support. This set is going to blow you away!
