Steamforged launched the Guild Ball Manager App at the end of August. It is free to download on Android, IOS and on Amazon. The app lists all the latest cards for all the guilds, as well as offering a chess clock timer, and a directory to find other players worldwide. The main function of the app is to eliminate the cards that often require updating or balancing as seasons pass. Steamforged will make all cards available as a free download to players who prefer using physical cards, to print at their leisure. For retailers, it means now all miniatures will remain evergreen and will not go out of date when a player needs in-game adjustments. New releases will include an updated Season 4 sticker that players can scan to download the free app to update their cards. The Season 4 Launch Pack will include these stickers to apply to existing inventory.
The Guild Ball Season 4 Launch Pack will include a Season 4 Launch Event Guide, 2 Season 4 Product Sticker Sheets, 40 Season 4 Launch Party Event Flyers, 2 A2 Double Sided Season 4 Launch Event Posters/Sign Up Sheets, 10 Double Sided Coach Record Sheets, 9 sets of Guild Ball Season 4 Quick Reference Cards, 9 Brewer's and Mason's Dual Guild Lucky Miniatures, 9 Limited Edition Alternate Art Lucky Player Cards, 54 Limited Edition Alternate Art Mason's Guild Player Cards, and 54 Limited Edition Alternate Art Brewer's Guild Player Cards. Release is October 13.In order to ensure enough product supply, Steamforged has moved the release dates back on the Navigator’s Guild: Tales of the New World and Dice Pack (see “'Guild Ball' Navigator's Guild Puts into Port”). The new release date is November 16.
