Hello, backers—

What an exciting week this has been! You’ve blasted through yet another stretch goal with head-spinning speed. The exclusive, backers-ony version of Jewel in the Sky will now come in a deluxe, magnetic-closure box that will make it just as cool and enticing on the outside as it is on the inside. Look at how you've expanded and upgraded this boxed set just in the first few days of this campaign!

And, as always, there’s a bonus reward for every backer: another exclusive XP card to add to your collection. We asked you to vote for your favorite, and this is the design you chose:

We’re having a live conversation with the fan community tonight on the Cypher Unlimited Discord, to answer questions about Jewel in the Sky and discuss the campaign—and perhaps to unveil a little treat for CU members!

Cypher Unlimited is a friendly and welcoming hub for Cypher players to find groups to join, share advice and experiences, or just chat and hang out—if you’re not a member, you should be! You can join through the link above.

The boxed set of Jewel in the Sky contains a bunch maps duplicated from the book in loose-leaf format, for extra-convenient use at the table. You’ve already increased the number of these loose maps through an earlier stretch goal. Now let’s make them even better!

The maps are currently letter sized (that’s roughly A4, for non-Americans). We’d like to make them bigger, taking them to tabloid size (roughly A3). This will let the details shine, and (for those maps that are player-facing) make them easier to view around the table.

As always, we design to the best needs of the product. Some of the maps might work better at the smaller size—and, if so, that’s the size they’ll be. But we anticipate that most will benefit from the increase in size you’ll unlock through this stretch goal.

When we unlock this goal, we’ll also give every backer another XP card as a free bonus reward! Which design should we add to the collection next?

If you like the imagery you’ve seen for Jewel in the Sky, good news: we’ve created a folder filled with images you can download and share.

This campaign has really been moving this week. It will only keep up the momentum if backers keep the buzz alive. Crowdfunding campaigns live and die by the enthusiasm of their backers. We love what you’ve done so far—keep it up!

Thanks for your support!
