Image for Stretch Goal 2 + Question
almost 5 years ago – Tue, Jul 16, 2019 at 10:30:48 AM

Hi,

Wanted to make this one short and sweet - here's the stretch goal 2 image, now on the campaign.

Also, are you happy with the amount of updates I'm sending out? There are a lot of things I can show you, ask you, etc., but I didn't want to bombard you with too many.

Best wishes,

Simon

A Sketch!

Hi!

Hope you're having a great day - I've just received a sketch from Willi, the Arcane Rites artist, and I wanted to share it with you. Obviously, this is far from finished!

It's always fun to see the descriptions on the page come to life!

Bookmark Image and next stretch goal
almost 5 years ago – Wed, Jul 10, 2019 at 02:22:36 AM

Hi,

I wanted to show you the new bookmark that all physical backers are receiving - I added this image to the campaign last night, so there's a chance you haven't seen it yet!

Also, the next stretch goal will be at £3000, and all physical backers will be getting their own fridge magnet! I've used them before as a stretch goal, and they fit into the category of being light and reasonably flat!

Also, they are pretty useful. I am creating the mock-up later today, so I'll be able to show you all what it looks like. However, it'll be a square magnet with the Arcane Rites logo which is on the dice, on a white background.

Anyway, hope you're all doing well!

If you're able to share the campaign on your social media that'd be great. The more eyes that see it, the quicker we can rack up the extra stretch goals!

Speak to you later,

Simon

Attributes in Arcane Rites + Saint or Scoundrel sold out!
almost 5 years ago – Tue, Jul 09, 2019 at 12:52:10 PM

Hi,

It's a slightly damp evening here in Scotland, so I thought I'd cheer it up by sending out an update with a screenshot from the book!

Specifically, the different types of Attributes you  use, what they are used for and the ways of calculating them!

As I continue to edit the book I'll share more of the pages with you!

Saint or Scoundrel Sold Out

Yes, just before writing this, our last Saint or Scoundrel place was snapped up by a backer!

We still have Face in the Crowd rewards left, of you're looking to make an appearance in the book!

I will also go back through the book to see if there are any extra saints or scoundrels I might have missed first time, and if there are, will add a similar tier.

Until next time!

New Bookmark for Physical Backers + How do we feel about t-shirts?
almost 5 years ago – Tue, Jul 09, 2019 at 03:24:41 AM

Hi,

We hit 100 backers and 200% funded overnight, which is brilliant!

In celebration, we'll create a new bookmark and send it out to all physical backers. We'll also be sending the PDF of the bingo card out to all digital and physical backers too.

I also wanted to ask about t-shirts. I have a t-shirt design based on the book cover, preferably on a black tee, and I wanted to see how many of you might be interested if it was available as an add-on?

The better the response, the better value we can offer the t-shirts at.

Look forward to hearing from you!

Simon
