[QUOTE="Morrus, post: 8479746, member: 1"] Cardboard and paper shortages have contributed to the delay, which means that the [I]Avatar Legends[/I] Kickstarter fulfilment has moved from February until summer 2022. The Kickstarter raised nearly $10M earlier this year, making it the most successful tabletop roleplaying game Kickstarter in history. But, as they point out, this works out to over 200,000 books. Even with the delay, summer isn’t that far away; many Kickstarters take far longer.
