Ladies and Gentlemen!
As you very well know, Snowdonia Deluxe Master Set comes with an obscene amount of content, and we're adding (actually, you are adding) more and more daily. Still, there is more we could have in that mighty box, right?
Right. So, here's where you come in!
We have just created a special Geek List on Board Game Geek, where everybody can submit their own ideas for a completely new Train Card for Snowdonia Deluxe Master Set. You can find it here (or you can simply click on the image above). On July 23rd (that's on Monday, two weeks from when this update was published) we will look at entries with most thumbs, and - after Tony Boydell himself approves them - start preparing them to be published as part of the Snowdonia Deluxe Master Set.
Yes, that means your Train Card can become a credited, official part of Snowdonia's history! So, if you're feeling creative, go forth and design! And if you're feeling helpful, subscribe to the Geek List and thumb the entries you like the most!
And speaking of being helpful, here's another Welsh lesson!
More essential phrases to utter around a great game of Snowdonia - and another opportunity to spread the word by sharing our videos to help others find out about the project!
Thank you, and have a great day!

About fulfillment for UK

Ladies & Gentlemen from the United Kingdom,
With the Brexit looming around, we had to be on the cautious side when it came to shipping your rewards, having to assume the worst.
Now, we have some good news: with so many backers from UK, we have already figure out a way to make sure that you won't be "hit" by any special customs or VAT or anything of that kind.
We have a clear plan to use a logistics center inside the UK, so that all your rewards are shipped locally. Whether Brexit happens or not, whether there will be an agreement with EU or not, you're safe from the fulfillment point of view (OK, you still have to worry about everything else, but that's the least we can do).
We will work with GamesQuest so that all UK rewards come from inside UK, so for sure you won't have to pay crazy taxes. Also, your shipping costs will be on par with EU shipping costs.
Have a great weekend,
Andrei
Unlocked Promos and the first bit of Welsh

Ladies and Gentlemen!
It's a wonderful Saturday here at the mobile NSKN HQ! The sun is shining, a soft wind brings a bit of relief from the surprisingly scorching Polish summer, and we are continuously in awe of how far Snowdonia Deluxe Master Set has gone! Thank you!
It's a great time to give you some info you've been asking about, and for all of us to learn a little something. In the spirit of mixing it up, let's start with the latter:
The above is the first of our Welsh lessons. While we won't have time to learn enough Welsh to become pros, we can definitely sound like pros around the gaming table. Those first phrases we learn should prove pretty essential to any game of Snowdonia.
As always, if you want to help us spread the glory of Snowdonia Deluxe Master Set, share the video with anyone interested in great strategic gaming with a great, palatable theme!
And now let's get down to the two Stretch Goals we've already unlocked. Here is a quick breakdown of what both volumes of No Print, Just Playinclude:
Just Play #1 comes packed with professionally printed versions of: Princess Margaret Rose, The Bought At Auction Loco, No. 11 Prototype Engine, The Breakdown Crane, The Utility Loco, Santa's Sleigh, Krampus, The Camoflaged Loco.
And Just Play #2 continues with: The Great Old One, The Coal Train, The Downbound Train, Sen's Train, The Scarecrow, The Falkland Island Express, The Birthday Train, Terraforming Engine.
By now you have probably figured out that we have yet another No Print, Just Play Stretch Goal up our sleeve. Care to guess what it will include?
If you've done some guessing (or some research), you probably know that not all of the upcoming Trains are exactly family friendly. To tell the truth, chances are that we will make small changes to their names. While we don't want to ruin the original feel of the promos, we know that many of you play your games with young ones (as we do), so we hope you'll forgive us some small alterations.
And speaking of alterations: yes, the Luggage and Time-travelling Police Box will have to change as well, for reasons that are (hopefully) obvious. We do promise to make them pretty cool nonetheless - and adorn them with some new, specially comissioned pieces of nice art.
We hope your weekend is great! Go and play some awesome games, and have fun!

Funded already? We did not see THAT coming!

Ladies and Gentlemen!
It has been a custom of ours to publish a "Funded!" update, but with your interest with Snowdonia Deluxe Master Set, we were simply too swamped with questions and comments, too busy unlocking new Stretch Goals, and too excited by all of this, to tell you what you already know: we are funded!
Nonetheless, we want to thank you for such an outsanding opening hours of the project. Turns out that you love Snowdonia at least as much as we do, so let's take this wonderful gem of a game for an even more amazing trip.
