We would like to inform backers that we are now committed to preparing to start sending packages to backers from this project. In the previous period, we have been very busy sending packages to backers from the Tank Chess project.
In addition, we had three new orders from our regular customers Noble Knight Games (USA), Philibert (France) and IED Co. Ltd. (Japan). We received new orders from them after a series of very positive comments about our games that have appeared on the BGG website and other social networks in recent months. We would like to take this opportunity to thank the backers who posted comments and reviews and thus contributed to the increase in the popularity of our games, and therefore the demand.
The organization of the transport of goods has meanwhile become very complicated and difficult due to the situation caused by the war in the Middle East. Thanks to good cooperation with the management of UPS, we managed to find alternative routes for the transport of goods to keep the price moderate, but the delivery time has increased drastically as a result. The entire process of organizing the transport has been stressful and is not yet fully completed, because the goods for our customers from Japan are still on the way.
For our small team, any unforeseen circumstance negatively affects our efficiency, so we had to take some time for even minimal rest. We apologize to the backers for not posting updates, as their preparation can take up a lot of our time and focus.
We have continued to work on the final production of the UB games. All that remains is to print the rulebooks, scenario books and unit charts, after which deliveries can begin. We are now presenting the final UB game rulebook and chart.

Two days ago we posted an update on the "Tank Chess (reprint)" project:
In the previous period, we had a lot of obligations towards the backers from that project. Judging by the reactions, everyone is very satisfied with the quality of the received games and expansions.
Soon we will focus on preparing to send packages to backers from this (Urban Battle) project. The start of shipping will be at the end of February or in March. We thank the backers for their patience.

We apologize to the backers for the delay in releasing this update. In previous posts, we announced that game deliveries will start perhaps as early as November. However, the delivery was slightly delayed because we decided to completely finish the production of games and expansions from the "Tank Chess (reprint)" project before that. We managed to do it (Update #36), although it took us much longer than expected.
Board games Urban Battle and Tank Chess are somewhat related and some backers want to have both. After the Kickstarter campaign for the game Urban Battle, in the pledge manager it was possible to order only the Tank Chess basic game, Tank Chess Portable, Fun Set expansion and Central Square. In the meantime, we have completed the production of the following items: Tank Chess Extended, Fun Set Plus, Airborne and Special Pieces. As a novelty, we now offer 3D obstacles. All of this can be ordered at this page on BackerKit.
If someone wants to order something else related to Tank Chess, they can go to the page mentioned above. Shipping costs are included in those items, and it will all be shipped together with the Urban Battle order. This is a unique opportunity to order Tank Chess games and expansions at the same prices as in 2023 (during the "Tank Chess (reprint)" campaign).
P.S. Backer "Games" has recently opened a Discord server for discussion and sharing ideas about Urban Battle, you can check it out here: https://discord.gg/AQU6RwghW

Forsage Games is still working hard on the production of Urban Battle. Before we prepare everything for this project, we want to finish production of all items from the "Tank Chess (reprint)" project, which is nearly complete. The intention is to send both games in the same package to backers from this project who are also expecting games from the Tank Chess project. A few weeks after the start of shipping, Print and Play files for the Urban Battle game will be ready.

Production
The production of Urban Battle game elements in all variants is going according to plan. The graphic elements are almost all done already, and the production (3D printing) of tank pieces is still in progress. In any case, the entire production will be completed a few months ahead of schedule, maybe already at the end of September, after which the sending of packages will begin.
Reviews
In the past period, two more reviews about the game Urban Battle have appeared. Like all previous, these reviews are very positive.
