Got my shipping notice today - I had contacted them to drop the Arano coin back on 9/25 after the KS update about it.

Got my shipping confirmation this morning. Bought the company level, mostly because I love the swag options. Darned Burrock laser dice were probably to blame.

Kinda - yeah.

When you selected your Force pack and it's corresponding salvage, you could opt to get a vehicle a vehicle salvage for I think it was an extra dollar or two per salvage box.

No worries - as I wasn't looking forward to getting Clan Mechs this time around - didn't want the hassle of mech salvage. As it was my 4 regular mech salvage still netted me two clan mechs. A Locust IIC and a Phoenix Haw IIC

Pledged Battalion and added two Veteran pledges for my boys.  Received my shipping label e-mail today after removing the Arano coin a month ago.  Sure hope that it arrives before I am out of town.

SO - question for the masses - as I choose Vehicle salvage as much as possible (4 I was not able to swap out as they were straight up rewards) two of my Salvage was as SRM Carriers.

Now the Force Pack that contained the SRM carriers also contained turrets to make LRM Carriers. And they salvage? Yes they also came with swappable turrets....to make SRM carriers  :shocked:

So I ask,for those who also got Salvage that was an SRM carrier, did it also come with a second SRM Turret, or did your come with the correct LRM Turret?

I haven't received any kickstarter loot as I come from down under, but I've seen this reported a lot and believe it's "normal" for the vehicle salvage. Not sure how or why it happened but I assume it's some sort of error.

My big order came with FedEx and was shipped Friday and arrived next Monday.
My part 2 order of missing stuff shipped USPS on Thursday and is scheduled to arrive Wednesday.
So USPS slower than FedEx. Both shipped from same location.

So, my pack arrived.

But, I'm seeing some problems.

I have some vehicles in the Mech-Salvage boxes.
I think that has been stated as a mistake so I need to figure out how to resolve that.

I also got mechs from the main Mercs box & not from a booster box.   
I forget if that is supposed to be possible.

It was resolved by giving everyone who received a vehicle from one of the mech salvage boxes an extra mech salvage box.  Check how many salvage boxes you were supposed to receive in Backerkit vs how many you actually received.

It is possible, just like how mechs from the Clan Invasion Box Set were capable of being pulled from Clan Invasion salvage boxes.

I only got the # I was supposed to get & yet got 2 vehicles out of my 4 Mech Salvage Boxes.
So I got no extra boxes.
How would they know that I got the wrong boxes?   Weight?

They tracked where the erroniously packed salvage boxes went, I believe.  It was discussed in an update back in July.  There was another email today with information about what to do if you got more than one erroneous salvage box.

Thanks, I got no email about it.
My 4 Mech Boxes is what I'd been scheduled to get from the beginning,  Only got the 4,  but 2 of single tanks instead of mechs.
I didn't even get 1 "extra" box, let alone 2, lol.

 :rolleyes: :sad: :tongue: :headbang: Well I just got my 2nd address confirmation email received from QML 10/24/24 . I confirmed on 10/25/24. My first one was 7/26/24 WOW three months. You forgive me for not being happy happy joy joy over this. I have been reading over at the Merc KS forum and some of the other FB Battletech. What I'am seeing here from the backers who put large amount of money into Battletech KS. You are punished for putting large amount money into Battletech KS like add-on which where all shortage is . I'am not saying this the other backers are saying this. It really wear on me about all this . That all for now before I say something nasty.   Oh NeonKnight I'm happy you got your stuff great haul there. The long wait continue.

So, I heard the FedEx truck arrive and grabbed both boxes before they even touched the porch.  Really well packed.

One Battalion and two Veteran pledges yielded 10 Salvage boxes split evenly between Mercenary and Legendary.  No vehicle mix-ups and a yield of two Devastators, one each Starslayer, Ostscout, Timber Wolf, Jagermech, Warhammer, Rifleman IIC, Kraken, and Caesar.

My oldest, 12, is plowing through the Art of War adaptation.  Kinda cool.
