Kirk Slater and 52 Ravens return with The Bloody Sisterhood !

I'm glad set-up an alarm I got to be the first backer. This is an excellent example of a great managed and community conscious project with an as good as it gets pricing.
Also, being part of the naming phase, I couldn't let this one pass.
Let's get this founded, guys! This is what I expect as an outcome from our community, besides gossip and deck sales.

Kirk,

You list the pledge rewards with free US shipping, but it adds £3 to the £9 pledge.

Can you confirm this is an error and will be fixed.

Thanks,

Funny how when I arrive at a project early to get an early bird, there are none! Besides that I like this deck a lot more than the Coven deck. Once again I hope the price in Pounds don't get backers off track when all the projects shows the conversion rate. I want this funded to.

That's fine with me, no early birds means nobody gets preferential treatment, or pricing in this case.

I really like this deck, but for 18 shipped to the US, I don't know if I have justify the cost...I am on the fence at the moment as it does state that US shipping is including in the price (as Cardians mentions), the price should be lower...if this is corrected, I am definitely on board and for more than just one

Looks like it has been corrected.

I had to switch to the other same priced tier to get the free shipping. It should read just 9 pounds/0 shipping. When I went back to the 27 limited tier, it looked like the shipping still would be added 3 pounds. This better get fixed for other people.

Thank you for spotting this. I've had to create new pledges to stop it from continuing and have contact each US backer to change their pledge to the new one so that they get the free shipping as advertised.

Lets hope new backers don't get put off

Luckily, the shipping issue was fixed by the time I got there. I'm in for two. Best of luck, 52 Ravens. I'm really looking forward to this project.

Shipping issue fixed...I'm in for a couple decks! Good luck Kirk!

I love everything about this deck (pips, tuck, color, etc.) EXCEPT the theme. I guess this theme just isn't for me. Still debating pledging though because it is still so well done.

Then back it!

Totally understand that the theme is a little select and not for everyone, appreciate the honesty dude

Not bad at all.. I fixed up the OP so we could see a bit. I'm in for a deck

Blood .... !
Needs more Blood !
Can we get more of that screaming crimson chromaticity here ?
Or what ?

Love it! I feel like there's a bigger world you're building than just playing cards - do you have plans for other things like short films or games?

short film? I wish I could do it justice, recreating Victorian London won't be easy

Maybe a website with in-depth stories for each of the vampires. That would be cool

This is only volume one, more vampires and stories to come if we can get this one funded.

Kirk, why not decks add-ons? Or maybe a luxury version of the booklet as an add-on too. Those are ways to get backers up their pledges.

The glasses on the QoD look out of place

I'm backing this.

How on earth isn't this funded yet? One of the best looking decks to come out this year!

If this deck does not fund I'm going to lose it!

It's still trending in the right direction, but yeah, I can see this possibly being a nail-biter (so to speak). If Kirk were to send out updates promoting other excellent playing card projects, and in turn ask other excellent projects to cross promote this one (I know that one or two have already done so), that might beef things up a bit. Him sending out updates will also give the appearance that there's stuff happening with this project, that it's not going stale/stagnant.

There's a lot to love about this one. I hope it continues to make progress every day.

Same-same ....
.... and what that funny Finnish feller said over the page ....

Why this no fund already .... ?

It's really weird.

Thanks for the support guys, nail-bitting indeed, let hope we make it to the finish line!

In the meantime, case your vote for your favourite custom seal design. The winning design will go into production if we reach the funding goal

Just 3 days left and not yet funded, but getting very close. I'm quite optimistic it will fund, especially over the last 48 hour reminder period.

I just added another deck to mine to give it a boost and because I think I'll eventually want another copy. Don't miss out on this one gang, the details on this are amazing and well thought out! With planned October delivery it might make a good Halloween gift or deck to play with at that time.

It's a mystery how a project like this doesn't fund.

I think a good promotion in the goth/emo/twilight saga communities and fans would give the project a good boost!

Also, deck add-ons.

The multi-deck tiers are the same price as the early birds so jump up if you're in the lower tiers.

Yes, I already did that, but I need 3 decks and not 4, for example

Upped my pledge to two decks. Come on, this deck needs to happend! If not now, then I hope that this will be relaunched. The back design might just be the best one I have ever seen.
