It took a bit longer than anticipated for things to ship and get through customs, but all of the books and cards have arrived in the US and Australia. The dice and minis are anticipated to arrive within a week, after which fulfillment can finally begin. There's also a shipment with some older products heading from the US to Australia and the UK that should hopefully arrive around the same time as the dice and minis.
European backers should hopefully also be on a similar time schedule, but we're still waiting to hear that the books and cards have been delivered.
It will take a bit of time for each fulfillment center to process their inventory and be able to start shipping, but I am hopeful that it might be as early as 11/15. I will likely post another update when I get confirmation that shipping has begun, but keep an eye out for tracking information! I believe AUS/NZ backers will be getting contacted by Aetherworks (who I'm using for fulfillment for this project) to confirm their addresses before shipping.
Thanks again for your support and I can't wait for you all to have the book in your hands!
Another quick update for you today with some updated shipping timelines. I am expecting all the fulfillment centers to get their shipments in by mid-October. That means you have one month left to fill out your survey and complete payment for shipping if you want your pledge to ship on time. While I will always do my best to fulfill pledges for those that complete their survey and pay for shipping late, I can't guarantee anything for anyone that takes more than 30 days past that point. Most of you have already done this, but about 4% have not.
There is also still time for last-minute address changes if needed. I hope everyone has gotten them in already, but if you do have a surprise address change, send me an email at [email protected] as soon as possible to let me know. While fulfillment centers have all the addresses already, it should still be possible to get things updated with them before fulfillment begins.
I got my hands on a couple of advance copies to use for display at Gamehole Con, and they're looking really nice! If you're there in October come say hi and check them out.
Quick update today to let you all know that manufacturing has finished! Everything is now en-route to the various fulfillment centers, from which your pledges will be shipped. If you haven't yet filled out your survey or paid for shipping, now is the time to do so.
I expect fulfillment to begin around the end of September unless there are any issues with customs, so anyone that doesn't have their information completely filled out before then will have a delay on getting their pledge.
If your address has changed since it was locked or changes in the next month, let me know right away so I can get that updated for you. If it changes after fulfillment begins, make sure to have a plan in place for getting your package as it will likely be delivered to the address on file.
Also, I'd love it if you would take a moment to rate the book 5 stars on DriveThruRPG! Those ratings really do help people find the book and know it's a worthwhile purchase.
Thanks for all your support, and I look forward to having physical copies in all our hands in the near future!
In my haste to get Foundry keys out to everyone yesterday I failed to notice I'd selected the wrong module in the key generator tool! I've asked Foundry to invalidate those keys, and have removed the download. If you had issues claiming it, it's probably because you already owned the first module and it was trying to give you another copy.
Keys for the correct module should now be available to you in your Digital Downloads with a "(correct)" in the name.
The title of the update says it all - I'm locking addresses with 48-hour notice so I can provide the final counts for the freight shipments going to the various fulfillment centers later this week. Be sure to update your address if you've moved! If your address changes after this point there will be some time (probably a few weeks) to make adjustments before they need to be truly locked down for fulfillment as long as you're not moving across the world :)
I'm also almost ready to release the Foundry version of the book! The module is essentially complete, and I spent a few hours tonight tweaking the CSS for it to make some updates to get it looking just like this book rather than the first book (since we initially just copied and pasted the settings to get most of the way there). With luck, codes should go out in the next couple of days.

The only thing left is to fix a few of the webp images that were accidentally created from images without transparent backgrounds and then get it uploaded to Foundry!
Those of you with the first book on Foundry will also see a tiny graphical update to that one as well to get the headers left-aligned like you see above, and, more importantly, to also allow you to resize the journal to anything you want (I noticed when making this one that the background image was locked in size and thus if you extended the bottom of the journal the text was unreadable - oops!)
Oh! And the dice
I also got some videos of the production dice sets to confirm they'd fixed the issues I'd seen in them, and boy do they look good. They even used a more legible font (something I didn't think I'd be able to change because of the price of the molds) than they had in the samples. I can't wait to get my hands on one of these finished sets.
A (somewhat blurry) picture of the dice
Next update should hopefully be in about 3-4 weeks saying printing is complete and things are on their way!
A quick update for you all today to say that files have finally been approved for printing! It's been a long journey to get the correct colors in the print files to make sure all the beautiful greens in the book pop correctly (instead of turning up a muddy brownish color) and reflect the colors from the digital version, but we're finally there. Printing is expected to take about 1 month, and then things will be loaded onto ships and sent around the world to the various fulfillment centers.
If you haven't filled out your survey, time is running out to do so! Also make sure that if your card has an errored payment you take care of that soon as well. Almost 5% of you fall into one of these two categories.
I will be locking addresses with a 48-hour notice in about a month when printing is finished, but if you've moved recently be sure to check your address in your survey and make sure it's up to date.
I'm also expecting the Foundry module to be finished up soon! I'll post another update when that's ready.
Thanks for your support, and I can't wait to have the final book in print!
