Preorder Information

This item is offered as a preorder and is supplied based on the quantities allocated to us by our distributors and suppliers. Although we place orders well in advance, quantities received are not guaranteed and may be reduced. If the quantities delivered are insufficient, we may need to limit quantities per customer, partially fulfil orders, or cancel certain preorders. For very high-demand releases, allocations may be significantly lower than the quantities ordered or cancelled entirely.

Preorders with priority shipping are generally prepared to arrive on the official release date, subject to receipt of the products from our suppliers. However, if deliveries from our suppliers arrive late, delays may occur and arrival on the release date cannot be guaranteed.

Orders containing preorder items are shipped only once all items are available. If you wish to receive other items earlier, we recommend placing separate orders.

Preorders are binding and cannot be cancelled by the customer, including in the event of delivery delays. Delivery remains subject to supplier allocations and product availability.

More info

Scythe: The Wind Gambit contains two modular expansions: airships and resolutions. The airship module was originally created and shared in the Scythe Facebook group by Kai Starck. Jamey read over the rules and was impressed both by what the airships added to the game and by the effort Kai had put into the expansion through writing the rules and playtesting it. So Kai, Jakub, and Jamey collaborated to hone the airship module.

In the airship module, 2 airship tiles are randomly paired at the beginning of the game (1 passive and 2 aggressive; there are 16 total tiles). Each player’s airship miniature (a new type of unit; 1 big miniature for each of the 7 factions [the sculpts are identical, and the bases are different colors to match the factions]) has those abilities, as well as the core ability that airships are free to move onto any territory (land or water) and across rivers. Each player starts with their airship on their home base, so they can start moving out of their home area right away. The airship miniatures measure 101x33x41mm, and they have clear, plastic, removable stands/bases.

In the resolution module, resolution tiles add a twist to the way each game ends. There are 8 of them, and 1 will be used each game. They often have an impact in the decisions you’ll make throughout the game.
