Hi folks!

The lead story: The printer had a delay of a week or two. If their worst possible delivery estimate is accurate you should -still- get the books by Christmas. This delay does create the possibility that I might be one of those awful crowdfunding people who will be selling copies of a game at a convention (PAX U, in this case) before the backers get it.

Next week I'll be giving you the PDFs for the two games. I did a 'soft release' to a small test group and they found tiny PDF-y issues that I've since fixed. And last night I noticed that the pagination on the PDFs needs to get touched up–no idea why that got messy.

My gosh, PDFs are a messy, opaque type of file.

Today I fiddled with the layout for a Thousand Year Old Vampire t-shirt. One of my favorite game illustrators did the art and the t-shirt has a delightful gimmick. I'll try and share it next week, after the printer has approved everything and assured me that, yes, it is possible to do this ridiculous thing.

Look for a more in-depth newsletter proper next week.

High fives,
Tim H
