Hello everyone,
Exciting news: our first stretch goal is now unlocked, thanks to your support! We are going to upgrade the jokers for the Pinup Edition deck. These jokers are not messing around:
This upgrade brings two of the Cold War's neutral powers into the fray: Sweden, with the Automatkarbin 5 (Ak 5) self-loading rifle, a derivative of the FN Herstal FNC; and Switzerland, with the enigmatic G150 bolt-action rifle, designed to resist potential Warsaw Pact invaders under the Projekt-26 'stay-behind' programme.
It's just another short hop to the next stretch goal: an upgrade for the TECHINT Edition jokers. With three days left in the campaign, I think we can reach that goal too.
Thank you so much!

Hello,
Thank you so much for your support! I am thrilled to announce that we have reached our funding goal and are going to be able to make these cards a reality. I have had so much fun working on them, and I'm really looking forward to working with the pros at USPCC and Gamblers Warehouse to get them printed and into your hands, along with all of the other goodies like the passport handbooks and art prints.
The campaign is still running through Friday, and our first couple of stretch goals are quite modest. I'm hoping we'll hit them and be able to upgrade the jokers for both decks, so I'd really appreciate you sharing the campaign with anyone you know who is interested in unusual weapons, Cold War history, or unique playing cards.
Gratefully,
Justin Baird

Hello,
Thank you so much for helping us start strong. We really appreciate your support, and we think you'll love what we have in store with this project.
We hope you'll share it with your friends who are interested in playing cards, historic firearms, or Cold War history, or who are just interested in novel projects with careful research and good design. The more we can get the word out, the closer we'll get to funding the campaign and being able to bring you these playing cards and all of the other fun rewards!
Warm regards,
Justin Baird & Helios House
