So without further waiting below are some sneak peaks, along with pics of the dice bags etc, which all were hand made, we plan to have this DONE AND BEGIN SHIPPING in the next few weeks. Thank you to everyone for the patience. So Stars & Sails will be docking very soon.....
There have been delays due to health issues that we are not going into here out of privacy concerns. However the core rule book is scheduled for wrap up. We also have had some art issues, actually a lot of art issues with two artist using AI, and since we promised no AI, we began with a third artist who's art is spectacular.
So, the game is not in anyway abandoned or not happening, we are targeting July for this being done and back from print. Sorry for the delays, and we promise to give more regular updates.
I wanted to give an update, myself and Pauli were expecting this project to be finalized as we had all the artwork and got into final layout. However, there were major unexpected issues with several pieces of the artwork that were critical to the game, and we had to have the artist redo some of it. However we did get the corrected art, and yesterday me and Pauli had a video call where we went over it and everything is now okay and sorted and approved.
We are now in final layout, Pauli is going to Vietnam on Holiday and we have plans when she gets back to go over the layout for her final approval and so printing can commence. Me and Pauli are excited to finally get this to you, and books should be shipping in January as art was the hold up.

Since the game has been edited, and all we have been waiting on is art, we are not in layout. This means the game will head to Pauli for her approval in the coming 3 weeks or so, and once she looks it over and approves it we will get it into print and binding.
We plan to later this week begin some fun updates, where we show you screen shots of pages of the game, so you can see how this awesome art is pairing with Pauli's awesome game. Pauli's creativity is legendary and it shows in this game. She really knocked this out of the ballpark.
Again thank you sincerely from all of us at Wizard Tower Games, without passionate gamers like all of you there would be nothing. YOU are what makes the gaming business possible.
Thank you all again, and we are close to printing and getting this game to you.

So the updates...
1. We are on track to ship in August.
2. We had an issue with the artist, and had to get another artist who had the vision for the game.
3. We will be issuing trackers to everyone in August, and will in a week or so will be posting sneak peaks etc at layout etc.
We are really sorry for the delays, the other issue was we print and bind here, and the tariffs with the Chinese imports forced us to reset also our ability to get paper from China, and we had to move to a U.S. Supplier.
We will be shipping in August, and cannot wait to get this game to you all.
We appreciate all the support !!!!
Don.

Had a talk with Don who was somewhat abrasive but apologetic. He says it.bever occurred to him to post screenshots of the book and that he's going to post a bunch tomorrow. I will feel dumb if he doesn't.
