Greetings Pilots!
We hope this update finds you warm and healthy as winter sets in. We’re settling back in after an awesome PAX Unplugged. It’s full speed ahead with fulfillment at 3301 HQ as we head into the holidays along with some new announcements below!
PAX Unplugged 2024
We want to say, from the bottom of our hearts, “Thank you!” to everyone who stopped by our booth and signed up for our demos at PAX Unplugged. Whether you were here to pick up in person, a fan stopping by to say “Hi,” or were completely new to SALVAGE, getting to meet and interact with all of you really inspires us and keeps us going as we charge forward into the final stretches of the project.
It proved to be a very successful con for us; getting to demo the game for both backers and newcomers alike. The table-top gaming community is something truly special and it is an honor for us to be a part of it. If we didn’t get a chance to see you there, hopefully next time!
Finally, we want to thank our booth volunteers - we couldn’t do these conventions without these dynamite human beings. Their passion and hard work has been invaluable to us over the past few years. Thank you!
Fulfillment Update
As the dust settles from PAX Unplugged, we’re prepping for the next wave of fulfillment. Shipments should continue to go out next week. We still have some numbers to crunch but we should be around 50% there. We appreciate your patience as we roll through this process. SALVAGE: Deep Space is a big game box and we’re hand packing each one. Remember, if you have questions/concerns about the status of your copy, never hesitate to reach out to us.
Future Updates
Now, with just the two of us, tackling ongoing fulfillment, and completing the second narrative book, we’re going to move to a monthly update cadence. So, if you don’t hear from us in two weeks, don’t be alarmed! We’ll post additional updates when there’s exciting news to share, but this way there will be less saturation in your inboxes. If you want to keep in touch with us, find out below.
Salvage: Deep Space Discord
A reminder that we now have a Discord up and running - a few of you even stopped by the booth at PAX! If you haven’t joined yet, there’s lots of great questions (and hopefully answers) already posted. Join by clicking the link below:

Keep Up To Date
We have some exciting news on this front! A close friend of the company has volunteered to assist us with managing our social media. If we’re totally honest, both of us are a bit of philistines when it comes to social media, so the help is greatly appreciated! Stay tuned and expect to see our presence here undergoing a resurrection in the next few weeks! You can find us by searching @3301Games on most platforms.
Sincerely,
Ben and Sean

Salvage: Ongoing Fulfillment & Pax Unplugged Pt. 2

Happy Turkey-Day/Thanksgiving/Friendsgiving, Pilots!
We hope this update finds you with a full belly, surrounded by people who bring you happiness. Regardless, take some time for yourself (if able), have a bit too many carbs (no such thing), and flex in the mirror.
These past two weeks have been packed with ongoing fulfillment, right up until we had to ‘press pause’ to get ready for Pax Unplugged ‘24.
Fulfillment Update
10 more boxes went out last week as we continue to knock out all Pre-orders and Backer Rewards. Once Unplugged is in our rearview mirror, it will once again be full steam ahead. Remember, if you have questions/concerns about the status of your copy, never hesitate to reach out to us. I’d like to think we are very responsive via email and have (re)connected with many of you over the past couple of weeks.
PAX Unplugged 2024
As mentioned in the last update, 3301 will have both an Exhibitor Booth (4208) and Demo Table for PAX Unplugged in Philadelphia, PA. The convention runs December 6-8 and is a great opportunity for any of you to demo the game or stop by.
Last call for pick-ups (12/1): If you are planning on snagging your rewards while at PAX, it helps the team out to know in advance. If you suspect you may be in attendance, feel free to contact us directly. If you show up to the booth without letting us know, we will do our best to pick/pack your pre-order in real time, but can’t guarantee we will have all of your goodies on-site.
Demo Table: Starting at 10:30 AM on Friday, we will be running Salvage demos every day of the convention until the hall closes (6 PM). The time slots are relatively limited and filled up quickly last year. If you have your heart set on getting a Mission in while at PAX, feel free to reach out in advance to reserve your spot!
Salvage: Deep Space Discord
As previously mentioned, the game’s official discord is now up and running! We encourage anyone interested to join us.

Keep Up To Date
In the past, we have encouraged you to “stay in the loop and be the first to know about our latest developments” by following us on social media. While you will still be able to find us by searching @3301Games on most platforms, I can tell you with confidence that for the time being, all substantive information can be found in these updates. From now until the last pre-order leaves HQ, our sole focus is on fulfillment and shipping.
Sincerely,
Ben and Sean

Happy Friday, Pilots
As the weather starts to turn here in MN, I hope this update finds you happy, healthy, and prospering. (Or at least some combination of the three)
This update will be relatively brief as the team is preparing for a massive ‘assembly’ day in service to both continuing fulfillment and preparing for Pax Unplugged.
Fulfillment Update
15 more boxes shipped this past week, leaving us with just a few remaining international orders. Domestic fulfillment continues to roll forward. If you have any questions about the status of your game+rewards, please reach out to us directly as we are usually able to respond within a day and can give you information specific to your particular order.
PAX Unplugged 2024
As we mentioned in the last update, 3301 will have both an Exhibitor Booth (4208) and Demo Table for PAX Unplugged in Philadelphia, PA. The convention runs December 6-8 and is a great opportunity for any of you to demo the game or stop by.
If you are attending Pax and would like to pick up your game in-person, please be prepared for two things.
1.) A cascade of cheers and fist pumping on your behalf
2.) The 22 lb. box that is the behemoth that is S:DS.
A modest request: If you are planning on snagging your rewards, it sincerely helps the team out to know in advance. That way your game will be as prepped for you as possible when you show up to the booth. If you suspect you may be in attendance, feel free to contact us directly.
Salvage: Deep Space Discord
As we announced in the last update, the game’s official discord is now up and running! We encourage anyone interested to join in on the budding rules discussions.

Happy Friday, Pilots
I hope your Halloween and end-of-October was everything you wanted it to be. We woke up to this on Thursday:
As you can see, for the second year in a row Minnesota has graced us with a winter-themed Halloween. We think it's neat, but it seems to (somewhat surprisingly) impact the volume of Trick-or-Treaters in our neighborhood. This had led to me being tasked with the sacred duty of polishing off the excess candy which is a … mixed blessing.
Fulfillment Update
25 more boxes hit the mail this past week as HQ continues to make a ton of progress. If you have any questions about the status of your game + rewards, please reach out to us.
Salvage: Deep Space Discord
We are thrilled to announce the launching of the game’s official discord! While it is still WIP with certain sections ‘under construction,’ there is a Rulebook link and various channels for discussion. It is our plan to have the first v. of the FAQ up by next week.
Big thanks to our Backer Kenneth Valentine who devoted his own time to get this up and running. With Ben and I still a bit underwater with fulfillment, support from people like Kenneth really goes a long way.

Additionally, if you know you are attending and would like to have your order filled via pickup, please let us know.

International Fulfillment

Happy Friday, Pilots.
This update will be fairly brief, as HQ continues to churn on fulfillment. Next update I intend to bore you with some musings on world-building/RP.
International Fulfillment
During our funding period, the team was delightfully surprised at the amount of Backers that supported us from overseas. We are happy to announce that over the coming weekend, all of you will be having their orders placed in the mail.
That will leave the team with the remaining domestic orders, which will continue next week.
Issues/Damages with Shipment
We have gotten a few reports that some of the shipping boxes have arrived with noticeable damage (from one carrier in particular). In most of these cases, the damages have been confined to the exterior packaging, however, if it appears that any game components were damaged in transit - please reach out to us. We will do what we can.
