9/10 – Updates
The Fate Accompli Kickstarter is over, and now we’re polishing our designs and getting everything ready for the printers. Before we do, we need to know what Add-Ons you’re interested in!
FATE ACCOMPLI – ADD-ONS
If you pledged $15 to get on Add-On, you can look forward to getting one of these bonuses. We’ve included some images below, so you know what you’re getting (Note: all images are prototypes, individual results may vary):
Add-On Name Plates: You’ll receive SIX Character Name Plates (approx. 8″x5″), printed on erasable material.
Name Plates!
Add-On Buttons: You’ll receive a set of 15 Buttons. There will be two sets to choose from: Fantasy, or Fate! Here are some samples:
Fantasy (no repeats)
Fantasy Buttons!
Fate Buttons (some repeats)
Fate-Themed Buttons!
Add-On GM Screen: You’ll receive a four-section foldable GM screen, which will compatible with any Fate game. It will be printed on sturdy card or cardstock material (Warning: will NOT be dry erasable).
Add-On Blank Cards: You’ll receive 12 Additional Blank Cards. These cards will have borders and faint lines, but can be used for anything you want.
That’s it for the Add-Ons! Which one are you going to pick?
What’s Round the Bend
Hello backers! We’ve talked with the printers, and we’re proud to announce that we have finalized the next Stretch Goal:
If we reach $6,000, all Fate Accompli cards will be printed with Rounded Corners! This will diminish their effectiveness as weapons, but will greatly improve their aesthetic and longevity! However, we’re still over $500 from that point, and there’s only nine days left; this means you’re running out of time to share this with your friends. Remember, the more people who pledge, the better your package gets!
As for future Stretch Goals, we wanted to give players the option of adding more goodies to their base set, so we’re adding on the following bonus: Add-Ons!
- Unlocked at $6500 – Add-On Name Plates: Printed Name Plates will be available for purchase.
- Unlocked at $7000 – Add-On Buttons: Buttons will be available for purchase.
- Unlocked at $7500 – Add-On GM Screen: Printed GM Screens will be available for purchase.
See the main page for details on the Add-On components and costs.
As always, we end with a request for your thoughts. Anything you’d like to see included as an add-on or stretch goal? Let us know!
Update #6 – Aug 5 2015
Over the Hump
Again, we’re hitting the stretch goals faster than we can conceive them, so it seems an ideal time to announce the next two (one of which is only a few pledges away.)
$5000 – PDF BONUS – Name Plates: All backers who have pledged $10 or more (Digital Dabbler and above) will also receive an editable PDF for print-it-yourself Name Plates. The Plates will have room for character info on the inside, and the Character name on the outside. Perfect for conventions and new friends!
Clarification: there was a little confusion in the past, so I wanted to clarify; this PDF isn’t just for those with a “digital package,” but for EVERYONE! (Except you, $1 Karma backers, you get nothing… except good karma.)
Credit: The Name Plates were suggested by backer Scott A. At the moment, they’re only digital, but who knows what a future stretch goal might bring?)
$6000 – Card Upgrade: Cards will be upgraded with rounded corners.
Update #5 Aug 2 2015
You Wanted More, You GOT More!
I didn’t think we’d hit $4500, but we did! You guys keep hitting the stretch goals faster than we can create them! If honor of hitting this mark, we’re adding something special:
- All Lone Wolf sets will include +1 Extra Card, for a total of 35 cards!
- All Double Trouble Sets will include +2 Extra Cards, for a total of 70 cards!
- All Warrior of Destiny Sets will include +4 Extra Cards, for a total of 72 cards!
Update #4 – Jul 28 2015
Secrets Revealed!
We just hit our next stretch goal of $3500. Amazing! Not only that, but that is the last of our original stretch goals. What lies ahead is completely uncharted territory; we didn’t come up with further stretch goals a month ago, because we didn’t anticipate doing this well!
It’s a little early to reveal ALL of our upcoming stretch goals, but we’ve been listening to your requests; rounded corners are high on the wish list, and we’re talking with the printer right now to see if we can make that a reality.
In the meantime, I can reveal the next stretch goal: at $4000, we’ll be giving all members that are receiving a digital version of the cards (Digital Dabbler, Lone Wolf of the Web, Warrior of Destiny) a fillable version of the file; this way, you will be able to create NPCs cards on your computer and print them off, or customize the headers to match your campaign or your language!
Please, continue to tell us what you want to see, and to tell your friends about the project. The more people jump in, the better it gets for everyone!
Update #3 – Jul 26 2015
What Lies Ahead
- A Pre-written Adventure (pdf)
- Standies

- Rounded Corners
- Fillable Card PDFs
What are your thoughts? What would you like to see?
Update #2 – Jul 22 2015
Funded is Only the Beginning….
However, if you’d like to see your rewards get sweeter still, be sure to recommend us to your friends. As we hit more stretch goals, we’ll have more in store for you. For example, as of this posting, we’re less than $70 away from having colorized Character cards. Which colors or design will we go with? Only the Warriors of Destiny know, as they’re the ones who’ll be casting the final vote on the design. We’ve been listening to your comments, and we’ll be sure to include more of what you want in the near future. Adios!
Update #1 – Jul 21 2015
Day One: Great Googly Moogly!
UPDATE – 7/26/15 – Stretch Goal Sneak-Peek
The Fate Accompli kickstarter is only 6 days old, and we’ve already been funded and reached 5 of our 6 original Stretch Goals! After the first few amazing days, our group had to get together and discuss what other stretch goals we want to add in the near future.
In no particular order, here are a few of the ideas we might include, cost permitting:
- A Pre-written Adventure (pdf)
- Standies
- Extra Cards in each Set
- Rounded Corners
- Fillable Card PDFs
What are your thoughts? What would you like to see?
Lastly, our artists Indy and Rachael were able to whip up a stretch goal graphic. TADA!
UPDATE – 7/21/15
We have lift off! The Fate Accompli Kickstarter is officially launched! Tell your kids, tell your friends! If you don’t have either of those, go out and make some! Let’s make this happen!

Ladies and gentlemen, we are here to announce, coming this July, our new Tangent Artists Kickstarter:
This project will feature dry erase note cards, markers, and other accessories for players to use with their Fate RPG games. Here’s a tiny peek at what’s to come… keep your eyes on this page, and we’ll be teasing more as the kickstarter gets ready to launch!
Tangent Artists Tabletop 
The video is a little long, you can only stretch the community access cable commercial humour so far. I’m also having trouble figuring out the difference between reward levels, are they still under construction? But the kit sounds useful.
The rewards are mostly two levels: 34 cards (Lone Wolf) and 68 cards (Double Trouble). The other reward levels add certain things like bonus pdfs, the ability to vote on the stretch goals, etc. Glad you like the look of the kit!
Love this commercial.
Rounded corners are high on my list. So is opening up the Free PDFs to lower level supporters.
Thanks! First off, the corners really depends on the quote from the printers (will update on that soon). As for PDFs, the PDF of the cards themselves are only for certain levels (Lone Wolf of the Web, Warrior of Destiny, or higher), but any of the BONUS Stretch Goal pdfs will be added to any level $10 and above (ex. the “PDF Bonus” unlocked at $2600 will give everyone at $10 or more a PDF game resource, such as print-it-yourself game markers).
Sadly, adding a free copy of the Card pdf to basic levels (ex. Double Trouble) would be very hard at this point, as it would make the $10 extra that “Lone Wolves” paid irrelevant; which would mean they’d either lower their level (which hurts us), or get charged more for what others get for free (which hurts them).
