Books 1-2/10 are up and for sale---the rest come soon

October 21, 2010
It occurred to us today that November could be a very expensive month for our fans. In reponse to that, I am going to release Fane of the Fallen and Splinters of Faith books 1-2 early. November will see Splinters 3-4, Strange Bedfellows, possibly Ursined Sealed and Delivered, and most importantly the Complete S&W Rulebook. I normally do not pre-release modules until the rules are out, but I wanted to give folks the opportunity to break up their order costs into 2 1/2 months rather than all at once. Pathfinder releases are of course unaffected.

Thanks to all of you for your (extremely loyal) orders. Our company is doing great, and your patronage is going to allow us to produce lots more books. Now, just wait until you see the One Night Stands cover...Rowena has it 80% done. News coming next week on The Northlands (Viking style series, think 13th warrior) and Hex Crawl Classics (those of you who like Judges Guild style adventure will be pleased with this series (and if you have not purchased NOD yet, go to Lulu and do so!).

I am doing my best to keep price point lower than industry standard. You guys are making that possible.

Woot!! It'd fixed. You may now order again....and I hate HTML code!

We are having temporary technical difficulties with our shopping cart. All our books will be back up for sale on MONDAY 10/18. Thanks for your patience - this problem is testing mine!

October 16, 2010
Tsar 1-4 softcover modules are up for sale. Fane, Tsar 5, and Splinters 1-2 are at the printer and should arrive before the end of the month. Final layout of the S&W rulebook and Bedfellows is in process. Look for a "for sale" on all these soon, with shipping of all the new books around November 5. The hardcover limited edition rulebook will be for sale soon as well, but will not likely ship until December.

Its been tested!!! The postage cart now works, and should be up (allowing Tsar 1-4 to be ordered easily) by Friday. Thank you all for your patience (especially you Ryan). Books will ship Monday. In other news, Splinters, Fane and Tsar 5 are at the printer. Chuck is layout out the rulebook and Bedfellows. Ursined is next.

I am going to take pre-orders of Fane and Splinters next week, but will not ship until the rulebook ships. Hard to release a book when the rulebook is not out yet. Besides, I want a few surprises about the new rules to be secret for now. I am out of town until Friday, so email etc. will not be accessable until then.

Lots of updates today. The Tsar individual modules arrived in the mail today, and will be up for sale shortly. I am doing final edits of Splinters of Faith Parts 1-2 and those along with Fane and Tsar 5 hit the printer next week. Matt has sent the Complete rulebook to Chuck for layout, and Strange Bedfellows layout drafts are in process. Next up is Ursined, followed by others. Its been a busy month.

Also to note, cover art, pricing and a few other details have been added to the site for Bedfellows, Splinters, the Complete Rulebook and Fane of the Fallen.
Lots of announcements of January releases soon!
