π£π£π£ Update on Shipping and Cool Spotlight!
βοΈ INTO THE LAIR β PROJECT UPDATE
Shipping, New Digital Tools & The Next Adventure!
Greetings, Adventurers!
We've got quite a few exciting things happening behind the scenes at Epoch Saga Games, and we wanted to share some updates on fulfillment, some pretty cool new digital tools, and what's coming next for Into the Lair!
Well, guys, we're happy to announce that ALL U.S. shipments have officially been mailed out!
π International Shipping
Our international backers are up next! We've been investigating the various shipping options to find the best available rates for getting these packages overseas. Now that we've worked through those details, we're hoping to get the remaining international shipments on their way by the end of this week or the beginning of next week.
We appreciate your patience as we work through this final stage of fulfillment!
π THE FESTIVAL SPECTACLE ADVENTURE
For those of you whose shipments were missing the smaller Festival Spectacle adventure, we've mailed those separately in 9" Γ 12" envelopes.
If yours wasn't included in your original package, you should be receiving it soon, if you haven't already!
π° TROUBLE IN FAIRBROOK
Work also continues on our Trouble in Fairbrook adventure!
We're still putting the finishing pieces together and are hoping to have this additional adventure ready to mail out within the next few months.
We're looking forward to getting this one into your hands!
βοΈ INTRODUCING THE INTO THE LAIR CREATOR TOOLS!
We've been working on something pretty cool behind the scenes!
We're excited to announce that FIVE digital tools have reached what we believe is their finished stage, and they're ready for you to explore!
Best of all, these tools work right in your web browser, whether you're using a computer, tablet, or phone. No downloads or installations required!

π οΈ FIVE TOOLS. ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES.
βοΈ CHARACTER CRAFTER β A NEW CHAPTER
Create, customize, and save your Into the Lair characters using our digital character sheet creator!
It's an easy way to manage your heroes and is especially handy if you've run out of those peel-and-stick abilities! You can create your character, fill out the sheet, and save everything for later use.
π MONSTER CRAFTER β THE BESTIARY
Looking for a particular monster? Monster Crafter lets you browse the creatures of Into the Lair in one convenient location! Whether you're preparing an adventure or need to quickly reference a creature during your game, you'll have the bestiary right at your fingertips.
π MAGIC CRAFTER β THE TREASURY
Search through the collection of magic items available in Into the Lair! When you're looking for treasure to reward your players, searching for a particular magical item, or just want to explore the collection, Magic Crafter makes finding that perfect piece of loot easier than ever.
π° LAIR CRAFTER β THE DEPTHS
This one is especially fun! Lair Crafter features a digital version of our unique lair generation system, the same system featured on the Into the Lair GM screen! Now you can quickly generate lairs and discover locations for your next adventure without having to roll everything out manually.
π SPELL CRAFTER β THE SPELLBOOK
Spell Crafter gives you convenient access to the spells available in Into the Lair, all in one place. Whether you're choosing spells for a character, preparing an adventure, or looking something up during play, it's another useful tool to keep the game moving!
π AND THERE MAY BE MORE TO COME!
We're also exploring ways to let players and Lair Masters submit their own monster creations!
Wouldn't it be pretty cool to create a monster and potentially see it appear in a future Into the Lair publication?
That's something we're looking into, and we're excited about the possibilities!
We think these tools are pretty cool, and we hope they'll make playing and running Into the Lair even more enjoyable.
Be sure to check them out and let us know what you think!
Meanwhile, the rest of the team has been hard at work developing the next expansion for Into the Lair!
This will be a smaller book than the original core rulebook, but don't let its size fool you.
EIGHT BRAND-NEW CHARACTER CLASSES ARE COMING!
That's right, we're working on eight additional classes to join the original eight!
If you've been looking through the original lineup and thinking, "I wish there was a class that could..." β well, there's a pretty good chance we've got you covered! We've been working hard to make sure each new class brings something unique and exciting to the table, with new abilities, new playstyles, and even more ways to create the hero you want to play.
And, of course, we're putting them through their paces with plenty of playtesting!
π² PLAYTEST WITH US IN 2027!
If you visit us at any of the conventions we're attending next year, you'll have a chance to experience these new classes firsthand! We're planning to focus our convention games and playtesting sessions on the eight new classes rather than the original eight, so this will be a great opportunity to try something new.
Of course, if you bring your own Into the Lair character, you're always welcome to play that character instead! We're really excited about where these new classes are taking the game, and we can't wait for you to experience them!
In some of the tiers, we had an adventure called "Trouble in Fairbrook". That adventure is still under design and review. We are about 75% of the way there in completing it. If it was supposed to be in your tier as a Physical reward, we will mail that out when it is finished, though it may be a few more months. If it was a digital reward when we go to print we will also send that out.
The completion of all the items and products for the box set including print, review and sample approval that it just got put on the backburner.
Either way i was supposed to make this post with the last shipping post.
Hey everyone i wanted to let you know everything has been shipped out except for International packages.
It has a been a long road and we have shipped out as much as we can except the Intl packages. I am working on the costs and will try and reach out to each person individually. Some International backers i still need to refund.
As this was my first use of backerkit fullfillment there were so many things that were not clear on how things got charged and slight mistakes in your profile or on my side cause chain reactions.
For example if a backer didn't choose local pickup they were US and got charged. So yes i immediately go texts from family members and friends! These are things i could have cleared up if i knew.
We are working on a few things an hopefully next year we will be launching our supplement possibly our board game called Runts! We have already playtested this at Origins and Dicetower and a few others, So we are hard at work finishing this off an hopefully launching in April of 2027. The great thing about this one is we are hoping to have this within 4-5 months of launching, as the art and rules are already completed.
First and foremost - The items are here!!! they look gorgeous.
As we start the process of unwrapping and staging and shipping, over the next month batches will be going out. We have already delivered about 20-30 of our locals.
π£π£ One note as backerkit is sometimes hard to understand, last night you might have been charged shipping. I have already started the process of refunding those who we hand delivered to, so fear not. In a few days, your 17.50 will be refunded. The rest of you we will start with probably the southeast first and move outward. Overseas unfortunately will be last.
I will be sending notices to about 40 backers who did not get charged for shipping due to errors. Hopefully that will work itself out.
Good news the entire shipment is supposed to arrive tomorrow between 12-4. This is fantastic news and everything should be coming to an end!
This has been longer and more involved then we expected. Our goal was end of 1st Quarter shipment and shipping in 2nd quarter, and we ended up receiving end of 3rd and now shipping in the 4th. We could not have done it without your support and faith. We continue to go to conventions and run the system for new people to experience and enjoy.
Shipping updates for those outside of our local area should be coming shortly. Backerkit is reviewing our shipping setup. For those in the US it seems that about $17.50 should be price to basically all zones. Those few overseas, well this is much trickier. I am researching multiple options, but its coming out that a few of you in the Europe/Asia/Africa are looking at $100. A few locations are cheaper. My Australian friends is slightly more. This was one of the main reasons we wanted to collect shipping after because it can fluctuate that much.
I will be taking photos of the product for another update. If you have played with us for a few years at any of the conventions, send me an email so i know how you are (in the system) and i will include a few things we are working!
Into the Lair - Books ready to be assembled π¨VIDEO!π¨
Just a quick teaser video. This is one of the palettes with all the signatures printed, ready to be assembled. They said a few more days and it will be out the door. Hopefully this google link comes through. Its about 50 seconds of just showing the printed signatures.
