Two high profile tabletop crowdfunding campaigns have turned to backers to request additional funds to cover increased shipping and logistic costs. Over the past month, both Mythic Games and Blacklist Games have requested additional funds from backers to help fulfill already funded games. Mythic Games has asked backers of the Darkest Dungeons: The Board Game to help cover a $1.75 million shortfall caused primarily from the increased cost of shipping. Likewise, Blacklist Games requested help from its backers to cover a $360,000 bill from Quartermaster Logistics so that Quartermaster would release Fantasy Series 1 miniatures held at its warehouse. Mythic Games initially raised $5.5 million in funds on Kickstarter for Darkest Dungeons (and collected another $1.4 million in shipping fees after the campaign was complete), while Blacklist Games raised $1.1 million for its Fantasy Series 1 miniatures.
