Fundraising ideas for Intrepid

This thread is meant as a brainstorm thread for cool things you would pay money for, that Intrepid isn't doing already.
Short term, long term, it doesn't matter. All I ask is that it is at least somewhat realistic and positive. Bonus-likes from me if the idea improves the ingame experience, other than the money it generates for content.
My idea is one or more fantasy novels based in Verra. These can take place either pre-apocalypse, telling the story of heroes fighting the coming apocalypse for example, or post-apocalypse in the Underrealm, telling the story of life in the beginning for the survivors, for example.
The basic idea is to pay a certain amount up front for the promise of a copy of a novel. Intrepid will use that money to hire a fantasy author to write an epic tale based on Verran lore, essentially. It's a little kick-startery in concept - pre-ordering a book that hasn't been written yet - I know, but I feel the end result could be worth it.
As players we get a physical copy of the book, which, if done right, will help flesh out the lore of the game and thus enhance the ingame experience as well. For example, when exploring some tower ruins in the game, players will recognize that these ruins are where the two Verran adventurers Fotrek and Gelix killed an evil wizard before the apocalypse. E-book and audio book options would be nice too of course.
As you may have guessed from the names of the adventurers, I am a big Warhammer fan. One of the things Games Workshop is doing right is having a bunch of authors writing a bunch of books in the Warhammer setting. Not all are great, but they all add to the immersion of pretty much any warhammer-based game.

That is about it.
Plus I'd always be down for posters/normal merch like T-shirts and such. I'm a nerd who likes talking to other nerds, so putting the game/stuff I'm into on a shirt and wearing it is a cool way to notice others who recognize it/start conversations
I may add a USB with the installer
You mean, so you don't have to download as much?
And probably have a cool looking USB
If I had more time, I would write a shorter post.
I would love to buy an Artbook of the game as well.
Yes, an artbook would be a great addition to a Collector's Boxset!
