We're so close to the Jumpstart! I have a pitch from Travis Legge (who has worked on a variety of Pugmire products, both official and as community content), and it looks cool, but it would really help if we hit that stretch goal to give him the go-ahead! If you want even more cat adventures, and you've been on the fence about pledging, now's the time!

Want to see Curious Cats in action? I ran a game for three of the people who worked on Curious Cats of Mau (Lauren Roy, M.K. Anderson, and Ryan Wheeldon) on the Onyx Path Twitch yesterday. We explore a lot of Heart's Blood, the capital city of Korat, and we cover some of the setting's political intrigue. It's for subscribers only at the moment, but if you can't splurge for a sub, it'll be up on YouTube in the near future!

If you want to see what happens next, part two will be next Thursday, 7 March, at 12pm GMT/7am Eastern!

Looks like we just got the digital wallpaper unlocked! One of the many reasons why I love partnering with Onyx Path is their ability to get amazing art for all the Pugmire games. So having things like wallpaper to remind us of that is always such a nice treat!

Hey all! It's Eddy Webb, creator of Pugmire and co-developer of Curious Cats of Mau! Just woke up with a terrible cold, but seeing that we're over 75% funded has made me feel a lot better! Here's hoping we get fulling funded before our first 24 hours!

Hey all! I've been bouncing around listening to people excitedly talking about the campaign! I thought I'd post a few things I've heard and offer some quick answers.

Is this a new edition of Monarchies of Mau? No. There's a lot of material from Monarchies of Mau that's been updated, certainly, but unlike that book, this isn't a self-contained game. Which means there's also a lot of brand-new material that's exclusive to this book.

No more martial artists? Not so! The Wanderer still has access to martial arts (and the trick has even been expanded a bit). It's just not on the cover like it was last time, because there are a lot of new options to consider.

Will these books be the same size as first edition? No, they're going to be a bit bigger: 8.5 inches by 11 inches (or, in other words, the typical size of a hardback RPG book these days). There are lots of boring logistical reasons behind this, but it does mean we have even more room to showcase the cats of Mau in this supplement.

I spotted what I think is an error; where should I mention it? Please submit all playtest data and errata to the form James sent around! It's all well and good to post them on social media or our Discord or as a comment on here, but they will get lost if you do it that way. The form keeps all our information in one form which makes it so much easier for me and Lauren to review them. We appreciate any (civil and respectful) feedback you might have!

In case you missed it, Rich's weekly Monday Meeting blog talked a bit about some of the podcasts who are talking about Curious Cats of Mau!

Now we’ve got to get the word out there! Pugmire creator and all around fine fellow, Eddy Webb, has been doing his part, as he ran an actual play of Curious Cats for Red Moon Roleplaying. Episode 1 is already live: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bzb91_xJxSI

Eddy also talked on the
GM Talks podcast to cover not only Pugmire and Curious Cats, but also some of the inspirations behind them: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYiVoVjngBY

Also,
The Critshow released their Patreon-exclusive actual play of the original edition of Pugmire that Eddy ran as part of their multiversal adventuring. There are three episodes which are already live, but you can start here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-critshow-pugmire-part-1/id1390944329?i=1000646476770

If you check out our
Twitch, Eddy will be on Meet Your Makers on Saturday at 2pm EST, and on Thursday at 7am EST, The Curious Cats of Mau Actual Play adventure continues!

Also, co-developer Lauren Roy teased some material about the mysterious House Smilodon, as well as her thoughts about the project. Check it out on the blog! https://theonyxpath.com/cat-smash-fever-monday-meeting-notes/

So, if I read correctly, Preview 1 - Introduction & Report of Castellan - to Mau 2E / CuriousCats does not bring anything new except 1 or 2 inspirational positions. The only 3 world changes in the overview of Monarchies are: 1. There is the new ruler of Threnody von Mau. 2. Pugmire and Monarchies withdrew their ambassadors to each other, cooling their relations. 3. A general description of badgers, birds and reptiles is indicated in the text. (Because they were described after the release of Mau 1E.) Did I miss something in text?
