Project Update: Manufacturing Done! Addresses Locking in 1 Week!
STATUS: LOCKING ADDRESSES!
Great news, Sodales! The manufacturing of Ars Magica Definitive Edition, plus things like dice and cloth maps, is complete! We have booked the ocean freight. We don't yet have the sailing details, but anticipate 45-60 days for it to get to our loading dock (subject to the usual unknowns of international shipping, customs delays, and whatnot).
When it arrives, we want to be able to turn it around ASAP. For that reason, we need to get working ahead on other deliverables that are already on hand, such as print-on-demand softcovers, so it's time to export all of the orders to our shipping software. That means we need to lock down addresses.
So one week from today, we'll be locking down addresses for final delivery. Subsequent address updates will need to be done manually. If you have an unusual situation (such as if you know you will be changing address in the time frame of August or later), please let us know with a message to [email protected] so we can set your pledge aside for special handling.
Thanks to everyone who has already filled in their surveys. If you have, please do check and confirm that the address you entered is still current. If you haven't, please don't delay!

Project Update: The Waiting Game
STATUS
We're into the last weeks of mass production, which is a lot of quiet work very far away. Then it's usually a month for overseas shipping. We're getting very close!
Most recently, our printer has been finalizing arrangements with us for protective packaging. We've approved the inner box and carton markings … basically, after shrinkwrapping we're having each slipcover set pre-packed in its own double-walled corrugated box for extra protection, inside the larger carton. That also means we can more quickly ship your set to you, since it will already be boxed for local mailing, and just need a shipping label attached.

FREE GIFT!
While we're all waiting, we have a free gift to thank you! My co-producer Ben Hartfield made a set of digital wallpapers for Ars Magica Definitive Edition. We used Doug Shuler's excellent Covenants and Griffons illustrations, and Thomas Denmark's Dragon. You can download them below.
