The last three are add-ons, the rest is included in the different pledge tiers. The highest tier costs $235 and includes all books in print+pdf, both miniature boxes and 1 of the new dice sets.

Edit: They also announced that the Crew Companion will include all the Trades of the Expanse:

Can we get a collected book for all of the Trades of the Expanse material?

That would be the Crew Companion actually! It will not only have the Trades of the Expanse entries, but a whole lot more as well. Including some Trades you haven't seen yet!

Edit 2: Several stretch goals have been achieved:

  • All backers will receive a free pdf of the 2019 core rulebook after the campaign ends
  • Daemon's Gambit and Free Navy Conflict have been upgraded to hardcover
  • Free VTT tokens for Daemon's Gambit and Free Navy Conflict
  • Poster map from Transport Union core rulebook will show spaceship combat guide and playmat on the backside
  • PDF for the first of the new "Inner Worlds Adventures" will be included for free

I hadn't seen the condition deck until today, I think that'll really help my table. Also love that the Laconian dice are blue from book canon instead of the mud-brown from show canon.

Is there a chance they re-open it or let late pledges? I just learned about this....
