I purchased the "Tiny Titans" mini expansion before the campaign launched. Do I need to add it to my pledge in Kickstarter?
If you purchased the “Tiny Titans” mini expansion on our website before the campaign launched, or signed up for the March of the Ants newsletter at GENCON, you do not need to add it to your pledge in Kickstarter. We’ll add it to your order automatically in the pledge manager after the campaign ends

How do I verify that I qualify for the 20% off discount for returning backers/owners?
KS Backers: In the pledge manager we will link you to a brief survey where you can share your backer # and information from any of the previous March of the Ants Kickstarters.
Folks who bought the game at retail: If you purchased the game at retail you can upload an image of a receipt or screenshot of proof of purchase.

Will this campaign offer these items in any non-English language?
This campaign and pledge manager will only offer English-language versions of each item. We hope to offer March of the Ants: Evolved Edition in non-English language through our localization partners around the world in the future.
At this time, we do not know which languages we will find partners for. Non-English versions of the game will not be available until 6-12 months after the Kickstarter fulfills.

Will you be using a pledge manager after the campaign?
Yes, we plan to use a pledge manager after the campaign so that we can coordinate pledge reward delivery as well as collect sales taxes and shipping. This will also allow folks who cannot pledge the full amount during this campaign to order after the campaign is complete. If you pledge for any amount during the campaign, we will invite you to the pledge manager. There you can select your pledge tier and pay whatever remainder you owe at that time.

Are these exclusive to Kickstarter?
The Deluxe Pledge includes exclusive component upgrades (2mm player nests, silkscreened food) and a box large enough to hold the base game and expansion. The Deluxe pledge will not be available in traditional retail.
The “Tiny Titans” mini-expansion will not be available in traditional retail, though we will sell it on our website and at conventions.

Will the previous expansions be compatible with the Evolved Edition?
Yes, kind of. It will be possible to use the previous expansions with a new version of the base game. But some cards will need to be adjusted, and some rules will need errata. We will detail what works, what needs to be updated and which rules have been changed with the digital upgrade kit.
We’ve incorporated about 70% of the content from Minions of the Meadow and Empires of the Earth into the Predators and Prey expansion. There have been updates to the cards and Major Workers, and a significant overhaul to the Predators. It contains our favorite elements from both expansions and if you are planning to update your base game, we recommend getting Deluxe Edition so you will get the expansion as well for ease of gameplay and coherence of rules.

What 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.
