Greetings again playful travelers!
First of all, thank you all for your previous and precious support for the Tales of Alethrion animated universe and board game. I hope you’ve been enjoying the board game and had a blast with fellow players. We only have 2 days left on our Kickstarter for Season 3. Any help to get us to the next stretch goal, a full new episode, will be greatly appreciated in these final hours - more on this at the bottom of this update.
Back to the board game news!
We've gotten some packages returned despite having sent them out with tracking. So, if you haven't received your game, then don't hesitate to write us so we can get it to you.
If you have played the game, remember to leave a review on Boardgame Geek and if you have any questions just hit me up - we've made an FAQ ready for potential questions on www.talesofalethrion.com ready to go up for this exact purpose.
BUUUT - most importantly - at long last we present to you
The video tutorial (💥with special effects✨) on how to play the game!! 😁✌️ Enjoy!
BARD NEWS!
On another bard note, here’s a little update on some of the things we’ve been up to since this campaign reached its goals.
We’ve (hopefully!) made life easier with a compilation video consisting of all the episodes we’ve ever made - The Tales of Alethrion Marathon ↓
It consists of fully animated episodes, animated comic episodes and interactive episodes.
Long time fans of the series have also created the “Dungeons of Alethrion” video game with us which was just released on STEAM. It's really cool to see the universe unfold in this way 👏
Like a slow love song, we’ve been working hard on bringing the next chapter “Ballad of Halima” to life - the next episode in season 3 - check out this new style we're trying out for the first time ↓
AND last but not least - If you didn't already see our newest campaign for SEASON 3, then this is the ultimately last call if you want to join in on the adventure.
We really need your help in these last and most important hours of the campaign !
We want to bring you even more episodes to the next season - and we’re SOOO close to the next stretch goal, “Power of Resurrection: part 2”, that we can almost animate it!!
The campaign also offers you the last chance for you to get:
Limited edition figurines of Amerath, Vito and Wilhelm 🧍♀️🧍🧍♂️
Your very own character in season 3 👹
💥 An online session and screening with none other than the director and creator Mikkel Mainz - he’ll even draw while you direct the pen! 💥
30% discount on the “Dungeons of Alethrion” video game on STEAM 👾
And don't you worry there's even more epic content awaiting !
Once again THANK YOU for all you’ve done and given us throughout these many years! This series is possible only because of you <3
Be safe and be great!
Epic high fives, Mikkel Mainz & the rest of the Tales of Alethrion team

Greetings patient Travelers!
The day has come where we have gathered our troops and initiated our final step. On Wednesday the 10th of May, we are sending out 95% of the packages. The remaining 5% will follow shortly after. The digital packages right after shipment. To those of you who are receiving the physical ToA Character Collectible 70mm Figure, make sure to read the text below with a broad font.
We have put corner protection on the boxes and lots of bubble wrap around. Some of the packages need to travel really far and endure the travel
Mikkel Mainz is in charge of the packing the physical packages. This is taking place at Skjald's storage room in Copenhagen. Luckily, he is assisted by great heroes, his little brother, Marius Mainz, James, Emma and one more Mikkel. Meanwhile, producer assistant, Ina, sits on the other end of Denmark and oversees the troublesome work of carrying out a packing system and ordering labels. The labels had to be manually put together due to toll so Mikkel Mainz and Ina went through some long days getting these printed.
Here is a typical package. We are trying to make everything fit in the box so it is well protected, but in some cases the book will be on top of the box or the package will be split into two packages.
The boxes will have different contents due to different Kickstarter pledges
As we supply add-ons through our Pre-order webpage, we have 55 unique physical item combinations that we sort into. The second batch we'll send after Wednesday consists of the some of the unique packages containing many different items and some where we are missing info. European buyers might expect to receive their packages within 5 days, whereas non-European buyers can expect double waiting time.
We are very pleased with how well all the figurines have turned out in terms of design and quality. Yet, we must inform you that the design has one shortcoming; as the design of the 70mm Tira figure is so delicate, especially around the feet, it is nearly impossible for us to hinder that feet and body snaps during transport. As we received the figures themselves from our manufacturer, we concluded that 20 percent had in fact broken small parts. We make sure not to ship you the figures with defects, however, yours might snap too, a defect that we as mentioned cannot prevent. Therefore, we unfortunately cannot refund or replace your figure might it be broken. Instead, we encourage you to grab your super glue, as we have done too. We find the result almost as good as if it never had a defect. Here is a little video log:
You can also get creative and do as Skjald team mate, Anna. She made a truly amazing display piece out of the figurine!

To express how happy we are with how patient you have been. We have a lovely easter egg for you: All pledges of the item Full Box Set, will receive an Alethrion aditional mini figurine as a thank you!
Mr Alethrion himself
After everything has been shipped, we are planning to do a how-to-play video of “Tales of Alethrion - An Adventure Board Game” to help you get started playing the game. So, make sure to follow our Tales of Alethrion social media and stay tuned on our YouTube channel. It is something I really wanna put together as soon as possible, but I can't say when it will come out yet.
Packing buddy
We cannot wait to hear from you and get feedback on the board game and all the other items!
Here are also some of the signed art prints. I have made all the different Tales of Alethrion characters, so it is random what character you receive on your doodle :) They will either be in the book or at the bottom of the game box.

One last little note her, I also wanna give a huge thanks to everyone who has been part of making this game, rules booklet, art book, miniatures and all the other content that was made for this Kickstarter. A few team mates I would like to point out are James Cavanaugh and Anna Fischer-Larsen have been champs from the beginning to the end on the creative and production side, Pamela Ludziak and Andreas Lund Andersen have been champs on the art book 3 finalization, Kim Strandli helped with last tweaks on the 3d models, and there are many more. There has been so much passion and care for the project from everyone involved.
Also a gigantic thanks to you, dear backer, for your support and patience. It wasn't possible if not for you all. It has been a lot of work on top of making the animations and I am super proud of the team and the end result. It started with me wanting to make miniatures for Tales of Alethrion and a fun game system I had developed a beta for in my previous Kickstarter campaign.
I will also say thanks to Ina for being part of this Kickstarter from the beginning to the end. She has been a great assistance and I appreciate her jumping in on my crazy ideas, and pushing me through the walls.
See you in my next update :)
High fives,
Mikkel Mainz & Team Skjald
