February 19th - via: kickstarter.com
Hi dear all, A few more hours to go and I decided to make available a few more decks. There are people asking and crying all the time so I think since it's the last day I can help them get on the train. I'll release a couple of slots for the 4,2 and... (Read More)

New card and display box

February 15th - via: kickstarter.com
We're down to the three last days of the campaign and although I was trying from the beginning, I only now managed to come up with a display box that is worth holding these little treasures. Lovingly hand crafted by me, made of palisander (a kind of... (Read More)

Figure gards and a bit of SPIRIT

February 13th - via: kickstarter.com
Hello dear all, Just a brief update  to have a look at the figures and pips. Byzantine numbering was different than what we know today. They used letters instead of numbers. So the  indices -when possible- are inspired by the Greek alphabet:  All... (Read More)

Hello everybody, As the decks are almost sold out, I decided to announce now the freebies for each tier instead of having you wait until 3 days before the end. So, let's see what's in the bag! 4 deck backers:I wanted to show my gratitude to your... (Read More)

New court and more...

February 1st - via: kickstarter.com
Hello all, I'm writing this update from Mystras, a major Byzantine site in Greece, where I'll stay for 2 days, doing some research for the deck. The city of Mystras was one of the most important capitals of the scattered (in the 14th and 15th... (Read More)

New Cards, more luxury

Hi dear all, I think it's time we see some more artwork. Here is the King of Spades:  And the Ace of Diamonds:  All aces -with the exception of the Ace of Spades- are inspired by decorations in Byzantine manuscripts and they'll be surrounded by a... (Read More)

IMPORTANT UPDATE, PLEASE READ!!!

January 24th - via: kickstarter.com
Hello all, We're 3 days from the beginning of the campaign and the project has already raised 26K! Normally this would be the time to announce a stretch goal. I won't. Instead, in order to show to all of you how much I value your support, I decided... (Read More)

THANK YOU!!!

January 21st - via: kickstarter.com
Okay, this was really impressive! Funded in 2 hours... What are we going to do now for the rest of the month? But, jokes aside, I'm stunned by your response to this project. I consider it my finest work until now and it seems I'm not the only one who... (Read More)
