Hello everyone,
It's almost time! Cosmic Conquest is officially in the final stretch before fulfillment begins.
The board games are set to arrive to the port on January 9th, and expected to arrive to fulfillment between January 16th–19th. Barring any last minute unexpected clearance or shipping delays, we'll have them shortly. The moment they arrive, orders will begin being packed and shipped immediately — everything else is already prepared and ready to go.
We can’t wait for you to get Cosmic Conquest onto your tables. Thank you for being part of the journey and for helping bring this game to life.
If you need to make any changes to your shipping address, please do so now in BackerKit. If your shipping/pledge is currently unpaid due to a failed credit card, please take a moment to resolve it — we won’t be able to ship your items until payment is complete.
The next update you receive will be about packages going out the door.
Coming Up Next
Our next Kickstarter campaign, Alpha Clash: Rising Empires, launches on January 20th.
If you’ve enjoyed Cosmic Conquest and want to see what’s next for the Alpha Clash universe, be sure to follow the campaign page on Kickstarter so you’re notified the moment it goes live. We've partnered with comic book industry legend Mark Waid for an explosive new comic book series.

Cosmic Conquest – Production & Fulfillment Update
12 months ago
– Fri, Nov 28, 2025 at 07:31:04 AM
Hi everyone,
To our American backers, we hope you had a Happy Thanksgiving!
It has been a little while since our last update, largely because nothing has changed on our side. We have simply been waiting on product, and today we wanted to share where things stand as we head into the final stretch.
Timeline
Over the past few months, our board game manufacturer has continued to push the timeline back in small increments. First by a couple of weeks, then a couple more, and so on. It has been frustrating on our end, and hard to pin down a firm timeline, especially since all of the other items we produced have been done and for some time now.
The final remaining piece is the board game itself.
We were informed this week that the factory now expects to finally ship out the full Cosmic Conquest production run in December, with an estimated transit time of roughly 25 days. While this is obviously not the speed we hoped or planned for, it does at least give us a more reliable window to plan around now.
Where Everything Else Stands
While we wait on the main shipment:
• The 1/1 signed cards are currently at CGC getting graded. • All other campaign items are manufactured. • The moment the board games arrive, we will begin fulfillment that same day.
Our Goal Moving Forward
Our priority has been to fulfill this Cosmic Conquest campaign before our next campaign, Rising Empires, launches. We have already pushed that campaign launch back from its originally schedule date to make these timelines match. Rising Empires is now planned to launch in mid-to-late January, and based on the manufacturer’s updated timeline this week, that aligns.
Item Previews
Below, we will include several photos of our various campaign. These turned out incredible, and we cannot wait for you to finally have the full package in your hands.
Thank you again for your patience and enthusiasm. Cosmic Conquest is almost here, and we are ready to move the moment the last product lands.

Cosmic Conquest Update – September 2025
about 1 year ago
– Sat, Sep 13, 2025 at 07:07:04 AM
Hello Clashers,
We’re back with another update on Cosmic Conquest, and we want to keep you in the loop as we move through production.
Production Progress
Factories are packed with orders from both major and indie publishers, trying to get products landed before any potential tariff changes after the current pause lifts, which has created a log jam and longer queues than usual. We had to wait much longer than we wanted for them to hit print, but the board game is currently in production at the factory right now and moving swiftly.
Many of the accessories and ancillary items are already completed.
Fulfillment Timeline
Our original target was September, but due to these production and freight slowdowns, we are currently trending toward November/December 2025 fulfillment. We are sitting and waiting, ready to ship. The day that the board games land, packages will start going out.
We Hear You, and Thank You
We know some of you are eager (and maybe impatient) to get your hands on the game. We completely understand, as we’re just as excited as you are to open these boxes and play. Like everyone, we are navigating the unexpected shipping and tariff situation as quickly and smoothly as possible. The wait is temporary, but the game is forever. We appreciate your patience!
Your support has brought Cosmic Conquest to life. We’re almost there, and we promise the final product will be worth the short extra wait.
We’ll be back with another update as soon as we hit the next milestone. In the meantime, here are just a few photos from production to tide you over:
Finalize Your Cosmic Conquest Surveys

Hey Cosmic Conquerors,
Just a quick heads-up: BackerKit will be locking orders and charging cards later today. Now’s the perfect moment to:
✅ Add any last-minute items to your pledge ✅ Double-check that your payment information is up to date ✅ Make sure your survey is completed
After today, quantities on all items will be locked and remaining availability will be limited.
If you are having trouble accessing your survey, they have been being sent to the email address you used to back the Kickstarter campaign.
On the production front, things are moving forward. We’ve navigated much of the global trade turbulence (tariffs and international shipping fun) and are now fully underway. Once product leaves the factory, we’ll share a detailed timeline so you know exactly when Cosmic Conquest will be in your hands.
Your support means the world to us. You’ve helped bring this universe to life in a big way, and we can’t wait for you to experience it.
