Happy New Year! January 2025 Update
about 1 year ago – Sun, Jan 05, 2025 at 01:44:03 PM

Happy new year REDLINE Army!

We are excited to share some good news with you to start the year off right! Our REDLINE shipment arrived stateside shortly before Christmas and is currently awaiting inspection and then delivery to our distributor for order fulfillment!

We are expecting our product to arrive at our distributor shortly and will be getting orders ready for shipping soon after. At the moment we are estimating a late Jan or early Feb fullfillment date given the updates we have received.

Of course we will notify once we have a set date in place. With the holidays we expected some small delays in arrangements so thank you for your continued patience with REDLINE.

It’s not too late to squeak in your last minute pre-order of REDLINE: Payday here to grab our exclusive promos like full art efreets, General cards and REDLINE miniatures!

In addition, we still have 15% of our backers who have yet to lock in their orders through their BackerKit pledge surveys. If you fail to validate your address and shipping we will be unable to send your order to you. So please check and lock in your pledge surveys ASAP to avoid any delays in your order.

You can check your inbox or click here to view your BackerKit surveys here to confirm or update your order.

2025

Everyone at Saving Throw Studios is extremely thankful for your support in 2024 and your help in getting REDLINE: Payday produced.

We can’t wait for you to play with the new cards as you wage battle over the redline with your friends and are looking forward to what a new year brings!

REDLINE: Payday Dec Update
over 1 year ago – Sun, Dec 01, 2024 at 03:32:13 PM

We have shipped!

A shorter update this month, but a good one as we have positive news to share!

REDLINE: Payday has shipped from our factory in China on Nov 17th and is on its way across the Pacific Ocean to our warehouse and then to you!

Check out the red arrows. That's us! 

We have been told to expect between 30-60 days for our product to arrive. Because of this we are currently estimating a late Jan or early Feb Kickstarter delivery date to our backers. Pretty much right on time!

Make sure your addresses is updated in BackerKit so we can ship your order to you without any complications. In addition, we still have 15% of our backers who haven’t locked in their surveys yet so make sure you get that taken care of immediately if that is you.

Pre-orders are of course still open and available if you still needed to place your order.

We hope to be back with our January update with a more accurate schedule of when REDLINE: Payday fulfillment will begin.

THANK YOU

WIth 2024 winding down we wanted to take one last chance to thank all our supporters and players who have helped REDLINE to keep growing.

Thank you for your support of REDLINE. Without you we wouldn’t be here! And there would be no REDLINE: Payday to look forward to!

Nov Update part 2
over 1 year ago – Mon, Nov 04, 2024 at 11:26:27 AM

Apologies! It seems that on our previous update our photos of the quality check for the new REDLINE product printing did not appear for all to see, so we are posting the photos again so you can see the need to go back and reprint our cards.

 Sorry again for the delay and the error with the last update. Some backers were able to see the images while other could not. Not sure why that happened. 

REDLINE Nov Update
over 1 year ago – Sun, Nov 03, 2024 at 06:14:23 PM

Happy November REDLINE Army!

We have a smaller update today as a result of some small, but unfortunate news that has pushed our upcoming shipping target back for REDLINE: Payday a little bit. As a result, we are in a bit of a holding pattern right before we were ready to get out of the gates.

Shipping Delay

Unfortunately, shorty after our last update we received bad news from our printer. The result is a small setback on our upcoming shipping order for REDLINE as a result of found printing errors at our factory during a quality control inspection after printing was completed. As you can see below, some of the cards were severely beat up during the print process.

Imprinting and scratches on card.

Edge scratches.

Deep indents.

These errors are unacceptable and because of this, our printer had to schedule the entire print run of cards to be made all over again.

Because of this delay, it will push our shipping back about a month. Although the timing is unfortunate, (we had a ship booked to leave port this week with our product) in the grand scheme of things it should only push our delivery date back a month, from Jan 2025 to Feb 2025.

The biggest tragedy is seeing so much beautiful REDLINE product getting recycled as we wait for fixed cards to be made. :(

Shipping Confirmation

Because the print errors were found shortly after our last update, we pushed back the confirmation and charging of shipping through BackerKit as planned since some extra time appeared on our shipping calendar.

However, we will be charging shipping and locking in BackerKit orders on Friday Nov 15th.

At the moment, 84% of our Kickstarter backers have locked in their orders. If you are part of that missing 16% or need to update your address with a recent move, please do so today.

At the same time, if you missed our Kickstarter campaign but still wanted to secure your copy of REDLINE and REDLINE: Payday to secure our pre-order benefits, you can do so below. Don’t miss out on your chance to battle for control of the redline with our two new factions!

PRE_ORDER NOW

We thank you for your patience as we have been anxious over here to get REDLINE: Payday into your hands as soon as able!  

We will be back next month with another update as we hope to have our product loaded onto a big boat and headed our way!

OCTOBER UPDATE

REDLINE OCT UPDATE

Happy fall to y’all!

We have some big updates to share this month with all of you concerning REDLINE with the final results of our efreet design contest name below as well as a big shipping and production update to share!

Efreet Design Contest Naming Results!

Thanks to everyone who helped not only to design but submitted names for our new community designed efreet. The results are in and the result is below!

Ladies and gentlemen, efreet pilots of all ages, we are proud to introduce you to the Scorpion!

Wait…. wut? lol

Per the rules of our naming contest, we asked our fans to submit names for the four legged efreet up above on our social media and across all platforms, Scorpion was the most popular name submitted by multiple REDLINE fans.

However, there was one 78 ton problem. We already had an efreet named the Scorpion waaaaay back in our REDLINE: Siege expansion, lol. Opps!

As that name was already taken we went with the 2nd place nomination, (which was our personal fav) so let’s try this again.

REDLINE players and fans, say hello to the WOLF SPIDER!

Love the name as the two large cannons are very reminiscent of the fangs of the actual wolf spider species which is robust and agile hunter.

The Wolf Spider will be featured in an upcoming REDLINE expansion so stay tuned!

Production And Shipping Update

Good news everyone!

REDLINE: Payday production is complete and factory shipping is imminent!

So what does this mean? Two things.

First, with production complete, we are now looking to bring our product home from our factory in China and we are currently working to make arrangements for that. Our goal is to bring REDLINE to our distributor as quickly and cost effectively as possible.

However, we live in tumultuous times as I am sure you know. With recent threats to close docks, Houthi rebels targeting shipping routes, and the holidays fast approaching, shipping costs and timetables are messy. We are still working to navigate these factors to find the best course of action for REDLINE: Payday and will be updating again when we have a more concrete schedule for you. The important thing is we are still on pace to meet our proposed Dec/Jan ship date to players.

Secondly, with shipping imminent we will be collecting shipping payments through our BackerKit pledge manager this week.

We are currently at about 82% of all pledges completed so if you haven’t yet, do make sure to login to manage your pledge, lock in your shipping and nab any sweet REDLINE add-ons like one of our awesomely detailed efreet miniatures! You can even get a Scorpion mini right now since it was so surprisingly popular! lol

Or, if you haven’t yet, and missed out on our Kickstarter campaign, now is the time to pre-order REDLINE: Payday through our BackerKit Pre-Order store!

THANK YOU!

As always, we want to thank our players again for all your support and patience!

We appreciate all of you and your support as we work to make REDLINE: Tactical Card Combat the best mech based card game out there!
