Update #24: Backer Copies

Posted on May 12

I hope to start sending out the backer copies here in the next couple of weeks. I need to make sure that I have everyone's correct address. If you have moved since the survey was sent out then I need the updated address before the 19th.

Update #23: Print

Posted on May 11
Forget what I said last night. After sleeping on the issue we have managed to solve the problem. Wait for an update soon on the status of your hardcover

Update #21: Closing in on the finish line

Posted on April 22

Thank you to everyone who has completed the little surveys I sent out to gather information for sending out rewards.  We are diligently working on the book, its currently in final stages of layout. When the pdf is finished we will release it to the dropbox. There is no word yet on the printed version. I need to double check some information, so please bare with me on this. I hope to have information to everyone by the end of May.

As I said, we definitely want to make sure we have everyone's information so that we can include names - If I dont have your survey already, then you may not get included in the credits list as promised, but if you are left out we can do an update at a later time, but prior to the books going to print.

Again, thanks to all of you for your support.  We're working hard to get the PDF, books and other rewards out ASAP. In the mean time I hope you are enjoying reading the first ES supplement, Order of St. Rachel. 

Update #20: Supplement

Posted on April 11

We got the first draft in for the first ES supplement. We are going to run its own kickstarter at some point in the future, but thought I would give this group a chance to act as its proof readers and playtesters... if you want. I know not everyone will back the kickstarter after getting this draft, but you have all been wonderful in the amount of patience you have shown during the course of this project. So I am willing to risk it. The draft is in the drop box, and if you have any feedback....go ahead and send it to me privately.

      You are welcome, all of you have been really good about the delays, from my personal life to the art issues we were having. This is the least I could do.
