Howdy, pardner! I've got a few small, but exciting updates about Huckleberry to share with ya. Overall, things are still progressing nicely and so far any headaches we've experienced in the production and manufacturing process have honestly been little more than hiccups and speed bumps when looking at the big picture. Files are being sent to the printer at the end of the week and they're the last reward to be manufactured. As soon as they're finished, we're starting fulfilment!
Wanted: Convention Trailbosses
Con season is here and along with it is an opportunity to spread the Huckleberry gospel! I plan to take Huckleberry on the road as soon as fulfilment to you is complete. Unfortunately, that means I'll be missing Origins and Gen Con this year. If you're attending a convention this year, please consider running a one-shot of Huckleberry. If you run the game at any convention, send me a screenshot of the event listing (or a selfie with the table if it was a pick-up game) and I'll add a free deck of playing cards and a shipping credit to your pledge.
If you want to run a pre-written Bounty, Showdown at High Moon and Reap What You Sow were both originally designed as convention scenarios. We also have a bundle of pregenerated characters, ready to ride.
Shipping Rates
I've touched a bit on the current state of international shipping in previous updates (spoiler: it's a mess), so I won't go too much into that again. What's new is that I've received up-to-date quotes from my partners and applied them to the surveys. Backerkit has reviewed and approved, so they are live now. (Backerkit does not set or comment on the costs, they only look for errors in calculations, weights, and SKUs.) If you look at your survey here, you can now see what the S&H charge will be. (And if you have not completed your survey, please do so!)
We will not charge shipping until a couple weeks before fulfilment, so you still have time to make changes to your pledges. We are locking orders on June 22nd, 2026. After that date, you can change your shipping address, but cannot change your pledge level or add-ons. We estimate that shipping will be charged in mid-to-late July, depending on how long the book printing process takes.
Heart of the Marshes
Now that A Season of Avarice is in your hands, we are digitally releasing the new Bounties to the public. The first to be released is Heart of the Marshes and we're dropping another Bounty each month for the next few months. These are the same versions of the scenarios as have already been delivered to you. As a reminder, A Season of Avarice is not a single digital file, but rather a bundle of the following 10 titles:
The Divine Comedy by Steven Alexander
Showdown at High Moon by Steven Alexander
Wranglin' Cattle by Morgan Eilish
Whether the Weather by Dylan Halsted
Reap What You Sow by Steven Alexander
The Whealing Wallow by Paul Ligorski
The Slaughterhouse by Jaime Reyes Mondragon
Veils & Vengeance by Jeff Baker
Heart of the Marshes by Jeff Baker
Magnum Opus by Eren Ahn
