Project Update: Feb 2024 - Project Update
Hi There!
We want to start by addressing the lack of communication. In the previous update we committed to updating monthly and we didn't do that, that's not cool. Rest assured, we have not forgotten about you and we will try to do a better job checking in, even if we have no new information. Just so you know we're still here.
However! We DO have some new information to share with you. We've got a production update, news about the pledge manager, some new content to share, and a set of FAQs that we have some answers for. So with all that, let's get on with the update!
Production
Where's the project at? ArchRavels: Magic Socks & All Theme Packs are ready for production!

The Pledge Manager
We have previously held off opening up the pledge manager because we didn't fully understand how the delays were impacting the timeline. But, the time has come, we will be opening the pledge manager on March 1st, 2024.
You will be able to update your shipping address and add items to your pledge as much as your crafty heart desires.

Enchanted Theme Pack Rules
Theme Packs are introducing a brand new way to play, remix, and customize your ArchRavels experience.
With our Theme Pack Production prep complete we can finally show off how Theme Packs will integrate into ArchRavels.
The images below are the pre-production proofs of the Enchanted Theme Pack Rulesheet. This will be folded brochure style. Each Theme Pack will include a customized version of these same rules for that theme.
OUTSIDE:
This may look a bit disorienting at first. The right-most panel is the "Front" of the folded rule sheet and the Reference Chart is the "Back".

FAQ
We got a few questions with the last update, so here are some answers:
Q: Have you considered a companion book with knit or crochet (or BOTH) patterns for some of the iconic patterns in the game?
A: Yes we have considered this... ;-) Perhaps some eagle-eyed backers might find a related easter egg in one of our updates...
Q: Will it be possible to update my shipping address?
A: Yes, when the pledge manager opens in March you will have full access to update your shipping address.
Q: How will Shipping Waves work?
A: We're still firming up some decisions and options here. But rest assured, like you, we want to minimize shipping costs for everyone involved.
Q: Will Wave 1 include the ArchRavels Base Game Shipments?
