When will my pledge rewards be shipped?
We expect to ship by September, 2026, and earlier if we can make it happen. We will do our best to combine all the elements in your pledge into a single shipment to save of shipping costs.

How do I pay for shipping?
Shipping costs are not charged through Kickstarter. Instead, they will be calculated in our Pledge Manager once we’ve sent out surveys and confirmed the dimensions and weights of the items. When you make your pledge, your receipt will show a charge of “$0.00 for shipping” – this is from Kickstarter. The actual shipping costs will be applied through Backerkit after the Kickstarter campaign ends.
Please keep in mind that the estimated shipping costs on the campaign page are based on current size and weight estimates of the products in each pledge tier. These estimates may change, but we strive to provide as accurate shipping prices as possible. It’s worth noting that due to the ongoing global shipping situation, final shipping prices might exceed our initial estimates. We will update the shipping price in your Pledge Manager survey as soon as we have their precise weights and dimensions.

What happens when the Kickstarter ends?
After our Kickstarter ends, you’ll receive a receipt for your pledge. It’s important to check this receipt to make sure your pledge went through successfully. We won’t be able to deliver items to pledges that didn’t go through, so please double-check.
Once your pledge is confirmed, you can relax, knowing that your Skullduggery products will be made. But there’s more to do! We’ll send you a Backerkit Pledge Manager survey where you can make any changes or additions to your pledge. This is also where we’ll charge for shipping. All shipping costs will be calculated in the Backerkit Pledge Manager.
Important Note: We will only deliver products to backers who: A. Successfully pledged to one of the reward tiers. B. Successfully pay for shipping in their Pledge Manager survey.

Can I change my pledge tier after the Kickstarter ends?
Absolutely! When we send you the Backerkit Pledge Manager survey, you’ll have the chance to upgrade your pledge. This upgrade option is open to all backers, regardless of the tier you originally picked. Our goal is to provide you with a wide range of options to ensure you can fully enjoy Skullduggery!

When and what will I be charged?
After the Kickstarter campaign ends, Kickstarter will charge your chosen payment method automatically. Remember that you’ll still need to cover shipping (check our estimated prices) and any applicable taxes and/or duties. The exact amount depends on your order, location, and local tax rates. Backerkit will calculate this for you when it’s time to fulfill orders.

Will there be a Pledge Manager?
Yes, indeed! We’ll be using Backerkit to manage everything once the Kickstarter campaign ends. About 2-3 weeks after the campaign concludes, you’ll receive an email with a survey. In that survey, you can share your address, upgrade your pledge tier, and add any extra items you’d like.

Does Skullduggery contain any AI-generated content?
No, it does not and will not. All of our art and creative work is made by humans or other living creatures.

Why should I back Skullduggery now? Can't I just wait until it shows up in retail?
Most of our Premium Editions are not made to be sold in retail, so most of the content available in this Kickstarter will not be available through retail. Beadle & Grimm’s has been producing Platinum Editions for various roleplaying games for years, and those limited-edition products always sell out and we do NOT reprint them. So if you’re interested in getting one of the Premium Editions of this adventure, we recommend you reserve yours through this Kickstarter.

Is this an English-language only project?
We are currently only doing an English-language version of Skullduggery. In success we would love to look into translations, but we’re not there yet.

What's included and not included in the PDF of the Skullduggery book?
The PDF of the book is ONLY the Skullduggery book, which includes all the maps as inline maps, and all in-world handouts in the Appendix. The separate Battle Maps are not included as full-size maps in the book PDF - those PDFs are included as part of the Set of Battle Maps add-on or as part of a Tier that includes the Battle Maps. The information on the NPC and Item cards are included in the book, but are not included as separate PDFs.

Is there a digital version of the Journals available as a fillable PDF?
We do not have a fillable PDF version of the journals, so these are only available as printed books.

How is the Bonus Adventure that's included in the Black Dragon, Night Market, and ALL-IN tiers delivered?
The Bonus Encounter is included in the Premium Edition as a printed piece AND will be provided as a PDF as well.

Are the rules in Skullduggery balanced for the 2014 or 2024 5E rules?
We’re based all of our rules in Skullduggery on the 2024 5E ruleset, so these are all balanced for that set of rules.

Last Updated At: 10/21/25What 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.
