For those getting year 1 rewards, did the gift deck (Silk with silver and gold foil) come with them?

Ah okay, thanks. I didn’t put it together that the purple Royal Silk tucks contained red Royal Silk.

Does DP ship via boat to the US? My package tracking says it left for the US 4 days ago but has yet to arrive in the US.

Posted: **Thu Oct 10, 2024 8:00 pm**

Handoffs between international and US carriers are not always reported well. Sometimes a package will arrive stateside but not officially enter the US for a few days while awaiting customs clearance. And even once clearing customs the updates can be spotty. I’ve had a package arrive at my home when tracking still listed it in New York. You could also try checking tracking info on both DP and usps. Information can vary; usually usps is better once clearing customs and international carriers may not update once a package is handed off to usps.

Received my decks today. I got the same composition of filler cards as Harv. However my "extra" deck is a Mastro III. Not sure if that was intentional or what, I don't think it's part of the Year 1 rewards. Maybe just a bonus deck? I dunno because, apparently once you stop being a patron, Patreon removes all access to previous posts you had access to (which really really sucks). Anyone who is still a patron able to shed some light?

Posted: **Fri Oct 11, 2024 10:07 pm**

Out of the blue I got a notification from my post office that something was being prepared and tracked for me. App has not yet updated, maybe it's these?

Please share pictures.

I did not find an explicit mention of an extra deck in his patreon posts but I've asked him and he just said it's another gift.

It's this box in Harvonsgard's pics. Foiled on top, magnetic clasp, black outside and red inside. Just thought it looked really nice.

Sorry I tagged the wrong post , I was asking pictures of the cards - Royal Silk

Posted: **Sat Oct 12, 2024 3:10 pm**

I received a notification from DP of another package shipped to me. The first package I assume is Y1 rewards, this one I assuming are the White Patron decks I did not receive earlier.

Got mine yesterday. I’m at a family function and the box is sitting in my car, I have enough of mine to get up and head over to open it, such is my level of excitement.

Posted: **Sun Oct 13, 2024 7:09 pm**

Anyone receive decks without receiving tracking? I think mine was in the last batch out, but still nothing as far as tracking is concerned.

Posted: **Mon Oct 14, 2024 12:42 pm**

I received a DP email shipping notification for yet another Oath package. This is the third Oath package shipping email I have gotten from DP in the last couple/three weeks. First one I believe is Y1 items. That package is now in the city next to mine so hopefully get that one in the next day or two. The 2nd package I assume are White Patron decks. Maybe this 3rd one are Sanctissimus Gilded or Mystery III decks? Excited that I will be getting a bunch of Oath decks in the next couple of weeks!

Posted: **Mon Oct 14, 2024 1:14 pm**

I guess there has been a reveal about Mystery III.

I have some pictures of the newer version but I'll have to ask Lotrek if they're okay to share.

I also just got a shipping notification from DP. I'm hoping it's my long lost white patrons decks finally coming home to roost. Then again brownsl brings up a good point that it could be Sanctissimus Gilded as well. I don't think Mystery III is ready yet.

Posted: **Mon Oct 14, 2024 1:40 pm**

Kevork, what he showed doesn't appear to have altered the dark courts at all. Do you know if it will?

Posted: **Mon Oct 14, 2024 2:53 pm**

yeah I don’t think he changed the courts at all which is what my biggest problem was with Craft. I do think this version looks better but man i really wish he would have lighted them up and used foil for the courts.

I received a shipment notification as well and the only deck I am expecting is Sanctissimus Gilded so it should be that one unless he combined a couple of orders.

I think is hard to tell with the harsh lighting in that video if the courts have been lightened up or not. Here’s to hoping that they have been!

So the sides are getting completely foiled too?

Uhh so it like Golden Oath ?

Can anyone tell me whats the difference between the Royal Silk , 2 Redemption Royal Silk and the 2 Patreon Royal Silk Rewards ?

I wonder if that was Lotrek's way of showing the deck but not fully. Yes, he had told me directly that the courts would be brightened for the hopefully final revision.

I'm pretty sure there's ink on the backs, but we'd have to ask Lotrek to be sure.

Royal Silk Test Print and Royal Silk are the purple versions.
Redemption I are the test prints of the red gold/gold and gold/silver versions.
Patreon ones are the final print of the two red ones. The gold/silver is a gift deck, one per backer, hence the lower print run.

The borders are slightly more prominent and the registration is different. I recall when some were comparing Royal Silk to its test print, there was actually more hot foil bleed through the cards in some cases. I can't recall with the redemptions but the Royal Silk Test print didn't have an embossed tuck while the final version did. Might be the same case for the Patreon versions.

I know people have been complaining about delays but we've had these decks in some shape or form to enjoy already. I'd love to grab them at some point but the current markups on eBay are not to my liking.

I asked him about the inks. He said the only ink is the front side dark parts. Since the paper is red there's some black which is ink but I think the rest is foil.

It does appear like that really nice red/pink stock is completely covered. Sadly.

Posted: **Tue Oct 15, 2024 8:37 am**

I think he used a different card stock for the official version - looks almost blueish

I believe that's ink on the cardstock, just like the previous version. The deck without foiling is white, blue and green or red inks.

I'm actually really curious how the new backs look.

Posted: **Tue Oct 15, 2024 10:45 am**

Ah interesting, good to know, thanks Kevork! Also, curious how the new backs look!
