Project Update: January update
Hey all,
Hope you had a great holiday season, and best wishes for an amazing New Year in 2025!
We're motoring along with Trail 2e on a number of fronts.
Helen Gould has turned in a thoughtful and incisive sensitivity edit of the current manuscript, and the project team will be getting together shortly to review her feedback. After that, Ken will be going through the manuscript with his usual care and attention, and then it's ready for layout.
We've set up a couple of polls to solicit your opinion on the dice bags and custom d6s. Let us know what colour combination and dice design you preference by voting in our polls:

- Which of these dice bag options is your favourite?
- Which of these d6 colour combinations is your favourite?
- Which of these d6 design variants is your favourite?
Unfortunately, our GM screen artist has had to pull out, so we're researching appropriate replacements while we commission the new interior art pieces, which is an ongoing process.
To those of you who've asked if you can still add things and make changes to your pledges, the answer is yes - we've set up the pledge manager now, and expect it to be approved by Backerkit this coming week. Once it's approved, we'll be sending out the backer surveys, and you can update your shipping address and add any additional items then.
Till next time,

Thanks to all of you who pointed out that the poll links in the previous update weren't working - I'm really sorry about that!

Also, I neglected to mention previously that, if you haven't run Trail of Cthulhu before, we're taking part in New Gamemaster Month, where you can learn how to run your first session of Trail in February. You can find the website with the full details here, and join the Discord community here.

Project Update: Our thrilling foray into the unknown has reached its natural terminus.
Like the fleeting glow of a comet that dances across the heavens, our Backerkit campaign's brilliance fades, leaving behind echoes of eldritch whispers and the faintest tremors of dread. Though its chapters close, the memories linger, etched into the fabric of our minds like forbidden runes upon crumbling stone. It is not an end, but a pause—until the stars align once more in the pledge manager, and new horrific add-ons are summoned from the abyss.
We are overwhelmed with a tide of profound gratitude toward all 2210 of our esteemed backers. Your undying (like the ancient and inscrutable forces that shape the cosmos) support has empowered Trail of Cthulhu Second Edition beyond mortal comprehension. You are the unseen architects of this vision, your contributions echoing like hymns to forgotten gods. We stand in awe before your generosity, as one might before the vast, unknowable void.
Thank you all so very much, and good night - don't let the Great Old Ones bite.

Project Update: 8 hours left and two new stretch goals added!
A fevered frenzy is surging through us in these fleeting final hours! In our boundless ambition to transcend mortal thresholds, we have unveiled two new stretch goals, awaiting realization should we dare to surpass the ineffable sum of £180,000:
- £190,000: UNTHINKABLE CORRELATIONS: The Trail of Cthulhu Second Edition Resource Book. When we hit this stretch goal, Ken and Gar will write a new companion volume to Trail of Cthulhu, building on the 1st edition Resource Book and Night's Black Agents' Double Tap, containing new options for players, new rules, expanded advice for Game Moderators, and a wealth of other horrors.
- £200,000 YOU ARE PROVIDENCE: If this goal is met, Pelgrane Press will produce a sourcebook exploring the occult secrets and horrors of Lovecraft's beloved Providence, the city that inspired and enchanted him all his life. Journey to the true Lovecraft country, and draw back the veil of history!
Indulge your Actual Play desires with Episodes 3 and 4 of A Ravenous Hunger, now available on our YouTube channel:

Project Update: The Final Hour Beckons: Rally Beneath the Shadow of the Unseen!
With just 24 hours left, we are awestruck that there are now more than 2000 of you!
Your support for this project has been truly uplifting, and Ken, Gareth, Ibrahim, and I - along with the rest of the Pelgrane team - are deeply grateful for every contribution, every share, and every word of encouragement you’ve offered along the way. as we face into the last 24 hours of the campaign (for real this time!)
We've unlocked Ken's adventure for Shadows Over Chicago, and we're getting SO close to unlocking Roll20 VTT content. If we can do that, next up is an adventure for the last of the new corebook campaign frames, Under Unknown Skies.
To cross the finish line with both of these in the bag, we need one final rally! Please consider sharing our campaign on social media and with your friends and communities. You can help us reach new supporters who share our desire to fight Nazis and lose ourselves in the mysteries of the Cthulhu mythos.
Together, we can make these last hours monumental!
