Hey everyone,

I hope those of you hitting GenCon have a blast. I won't be there but Bob will, so if you see him be sure to say hello.

Surveys went out over the weekend and we're currently around 80% complete. There's still a few left though (~32) so here's a friendly reminder to get 'em filled out. 

That's it for now, have a great rest of your week.

Hi everyone,

Like the subject line says, I just sent the smoke test surveys out to a subset of backers to make sure everything is setup properly. If you get one of these, please respond quickly (especially if you see any issues).

The full blast for surveys will go out Monday (barring any problems).

The PRE-ORDER STORE is now OPEN. So please spread the word to your gamer friends.

Thanks everyone!  Talk to you next week.

Pledge Manager this week, status of books, maps, etc.
8 months ago – Tue, Jul 22, 2025 at 07:56:21 AM

Hey everyone,

First off let me apologize for the delays in setting up the pledge manager. A few other things got in the way, but I've been hammering it out the last few days. It will launch this week.

How are things progressing?
Vault of the Murderworm
The manuscript is done and playtested. 
The cover and interior art is done
The maps are done. Thank you Bob and Brett Hess for your amazing work!
The layout is done, aside from the back cover text (she's waiting on me). Thank you Raven Evermoor!

The Wormfather's Apprentice
The manuscript is in progress and should be done by next week.
The art requests are in progress.
The maps are mostly done. (There is only one map remaining.)
The layout is not yet started.

The Slitherbane Dice Insert
The insert is not yet started.

Big thanks to Bob Brinkman, Brett Hess, Billy Blue, Waclaw Traier, Carlos Castilho, Leandro Seidler, and Raven Evermoor for all of their hard work so far!

I'll send out another update when the Pledge Manager goes live.

Thanks everyone!

Chris

Pledge Manager soon
9 months ago – Tue, Jun 10, 2025 at 08:14:29 AM

Hey everyone,

Thanks for your patience.  We're still waiting on BackerKit to release funds and I'm still setting up the Pledge Manager (and shipping KINLESS).  All of Evil Never Dies has shipped.

The manuscript is done for Vault of the Murderworm and Bob is working on some post-playtest tweaks.
The maps and art  are all in progress.

I created a poll with pics of the Murderworm mini, so please take a moment and let us know if you're interested. The poll ends at the end of next week. It will be offered in the Pledge Manager, but having a rough idea of how many I need helps minimize delays. 

Thanks everyone!

Chris
