Greetings Sinner,
The orders have been locked and cards are starting to be charged. Please check all your details are correct including your delivery address. Once all the payments for add-ons and shipping are in then I will be able to send out the PDF copies of the book to all backers!
So depending on how fast everyone gets their payment in you could have the PDF copy of the book by next week.
The Book of Spells PDF will be sent out later to prioratise the Core Rule Book, and the art only PDF will come out later as I'm still working on it.
All the PDF content will also be available on Drivethrough RPG when available to the public in 2025.
Speaking of Drivethrough RPG, I am already planning a suite of add ons and expansions for the game that will hopefully be available when the printed copy of the book is in your hands. These will not need a kickstarter and will be available to everyone on drivethrough RPG. some will be digital only, others will be printed on cards for you to order. Here is a behind the scenes sketch of an upcoming Bounty Hunting expansion.
Thank you agian for your patience and passion.
cheers
Ben

Greeting Sinner,
I am curently in the process of finalising the files for printing and they will be sent off to the printers and then to distributiuon. It was a long road with a lot of work to make it the best it can be, but it should be done now and i wont have to add the word "final" to another document. To ensure quality of the product, it is still likely that it will be mid to late March 2025 before you will have the books in your hands.
As to that please make sure you have either paid or provided your bank details for the shipping costs.
Super importantly, Please Check Your Address on your backerkit details.If your address does not reflect your current address please email me asap at [email protected] with the subject line "BP&B-Address-Change" and I will make sure your details are updated.
The deadline to get all your details in is the 10th of November. I will be charging cards for shipment shortly after. If you have sent money via paypal then dont worry as I already have the payment.
Cheers
Ben
Art Without Text

Greetings Sinner,
I have been hard at work copying all the text from the photoshop files and then re formating every line of text in Indesign to make sure that there is no risk of the text smearing in the printing process. This has been a difficult and grinding task but it has allowed be to add a little more polish to the final book as well as making it more streamlined. The result is also me seeing the pages and spreads without text for the first time in a very long time. So i thought it would be cool to share some of these pages with you so you can get a look at the pure art, this is also what you will get along with behind the scenes sketches if you have pre ordered the art only digital edition.
cheers

The final Stretch

Greetings Sinner,
I know its been radio silence from me for a wile, but I want to give you a heads up as to what is happening.
I have been working hard in coordination with the fantastic folks at Free League to make sure that the core book as well as the book of spells are the best they can be when they go to print.
This is the largest and most complicated print project I have tackled and there have been a lot of lessons learnt. Free League puts out some of the most beautiful books in the RPG market and I do not want mine to be the weak link, you as a backer deserve only the best.
Although production is still at a late stage with mostly ploish and logistics being prioratised, I can say that we are another step closer to the final file being made before it goes to print and delivered to your door.
As to that, we are projecting that the book will come out mid to late March 2025, however it is more than likely that the digital only editions can be sent out before that, its all up to Free League for that.
I am already hard at work making sure that there will be aditional goodies available for the books launch, some will be for digital or print on demand purchase, some will be free. These include NPC and enemy cards, an adventure, additional super bespoke rules, and more. All of this will of course feature brand new colour illustrations and more lore.
I apreciate your patience with this project, I am currently recovering from surgery on my voice box but I still want to keep everything to the deadlines.
If you want to keep in contact here is a fresh link to the discord
It's already lively with discusssion and very welcoming.
I hope to have another update by the end of the month.
cheers
