[QUOTE="dave2008, post: 8394104, member: 83242"] First, I want to be clear that every Kickstarter works a little differently in terms of reward deliveries. The expected date of deliver should be clearly noted on the KS page and on each pledge level. Some products are KS only, but some go on sale after the KS, it just depends. I would image LevelUp will be for sale shortly after the KS is over. Regarding funding, yes you pledge for a product you have until the Kickstarter ends (which is not always a month) to change or remove your pledge. Once the KS ends, the funds are taken from your account. Regarding LevelUP. Once the KS ends, PDF files of anything that is not a stretch goal (not sure if there will even be any of these) will be sent to backers within minutes. So the day the KS ends you are likely to get your PDF as well. However, print books will take longer to deliver. Fortunately, since the books are already complete, these will only lag the PDF by a few weeks or months depending on shipping. Please not this is not typical for a Kickstarter. A current large RPG KS has a projected PDF delivery date of May 2022! EnWorld is very good at delivering product immediately. A few terms for you: [B]KS.[/B] Kickstarter [B]Backer. [/B]Any one who pledge money to a product. [B]Pledge. [/B] What your paying for a given product. Often there a different specific levels you can fund, but you can also customize your pledge. [B]Rewards. [/B]The product (s) promised with your pledge level. There are often different pledge levels and you get different rewards for each level. Like a PDF only level. Sometimes these include various accessories (such as dice or miniatures). [B]Stretch Goal.[/B] This a defined tier of funding that goes beyond the initial funding to make the Kickstarter. Typically the KS will promise something at this higher goal, like more art, or more monsters, or a new class, etc. [B]Add-ons.[/B] These are extra products that you can add to your pledge for an additional cost. For example, EnWorld has many products that have created in the past, they may offer some of this products as add-ons to the KS (or they may not). I hope this helps! [/QUOTE]
