I hope you're doing well! First, I want to let you know that the Cave of Amber Tears print edition is coming soon. While my friend Faan has been hard at work implementing the adventure into the Codex, he and I have encountered several text issues, so I'll be editing the PDFs before they go to final print. They are nothing major, but the final product will be better for the changes.
If you would like to report any errors or typos, feel free to email me at [email protected].
Finally (and this is the real reason for the update), I wanted to let you know that tomorrow (8/19) at 6:00 PM PT, I will be running part 1 of a special Cave of Amber Tears two-shot for Matt Colville and some of his friends. You will (most likely) be able to tune in to the game on his Twitch channel: https://www.twitch.tv/matthew_colville.
If you aren't sure who Matt Colville is, that's cool! You can still tune in and watch me play Draw Steel with some nifty people.
Thanks for your support and your patience! Paul Ligorski
It's my extreme pleasure, and enormous relief to inform you that the Cave of Amber Tears is complete!
You all should have access to the final PDFs in your Backerkit downloads. I'll provide further updates to the files to include the Codex code (implementation currently underway) and to update the file with any typo fixes. Furthermore, I'll add bookmarks for easier navigation within the document.
The next step will be printing and shipping! I have received quotes from a local printer, and will provide updates on that front soon when the printing process is underway.
Thank you all so much for your support and patience, Paul Ligorski
Some of you may have seen the teaser page or perhaps received an alert for a new project from the Heart of Arcana.
You might be wondering: Is this new project starting before the Cave of Amber Tears is complete?
Happily, no! The Cave of Amber Tears is on track to be complete before the crowdfunder begins, and all of you will have the PDF well in hand before this new project launches on August 1st.
If you're intrigued, please click the link below to be alerted when the crowdfunder goes live!
If you notice any typos or have feedback about the adventure, you can email me at heart.arcanium(at)gmail.com. Just a quick note - feedback is very welcome, but I'm not looking for design suggestions.
The document is currently going into layout and will be released as a finished PDF as soon as possible. I'll do a final proofread pass once the document is properly laid out, and then we're off to the printers!
I look forward to updating you with the final PDF soon!
Checking in with exciting news. The Cave of Amber Tears is so incredibly close to the finish line. I'm putting the finishing touches on encounters and miscellaneous bits. Plus, despite some delays with cartography, all the maps and internal art are done!
I'm really looking forward to sharing this adventure with you. Thanks for your patience as we near completion of the adventure.
In the meantime, I just finished the ancestry document for "The Stewards of the Sleeping Lands," which everyone should have access to via their Backerkit downloads.
If you want to share the ancestry with any of your friends who didn't back the project, here's the link: https://heart-of-arcana.itch.io/the-stewards-of-the-sleeping-lands
You may notice that there is a weird file type in the folder; that's so you can play an argillum in Forge Steel!
