Thank you! What's next.
Friends, thank you so much for your outpouring of support for this chill game of adventurers settling down to run a cozy tavern. We had an incredible stream of backers show up ...
The headline says it all: Our first wave of books has left the warehouse and started arriving on doorsteps.
Here's the rundown on where things are at, and what to expect:
Our warehouse partner (Atlas Games in Duluth, MN) has begun fulfilling those pledges which just include the standard edition cover. The standard edition books were ready first, so those orders are getting priority.
There was a printing error with the covers of the Limited Edition but we caught it in time. Those books needed to be fixed but that is now complete and our warehouse should start processing pledges that include Limited Edition books starting next week.
All the extra components (dice, cards, coin) were finished some time ago. If you have those in your pledge, they will not affect when your order gets processed.
As of this morning, the PDF, Accessible PDF, and DriveThruRPG codes for the PDF have been distributed to backers. Look for an email titled "New Digital Content for Stewpot: Tales From A Fantasy Tavern on BackerKit" from [email protected]. It will have a link to download those files/codes.
The Roll20 module is still under development but we hope to release that in the next three weeks.
The stretch goals are largely complete, we are doing a final layout pass/touch-up and plan to release that soon as well. Again: a select set of stretch goals were included in the books (like a few of the new games and the recipes). All remaining stretch goals will be delivered as a separate PDF.
Please note: Earlier this week we released a version of the PDF that accidentally left out the copyright page and therefore the CC-BY-SA declaration. We updated the file yesterday to fix that omission.
If you have any customer service issues (a damaged book, change of address, etc) please email us at [email protected]. We try to monitor the comments here but emailing us is the best (and quickest!) way to get eyes on your issue.
That's the status update! Proud to note that most backers will get the rewards for this project a solid four months ahead of our projected delivery date.
We do our best to make games that aren't just a pleasure to play, but a treasure to hold and look at. We're very happy with how Stewpot turned out. As we head into the winter season, we hope you enjoy some chill, cozy times recounting the tales of your retired adventurers.
Hello friends, we'll cut to the chase: We'll be locking down orders in the next 48 hours. The print run for Stewpot is almost complete, we expect to take delivery of the books at our fulfillment warehouse by the end of the week.
If you have anything you want to add to your pledge, now is the time to do it!Review your pledge here.
We're in the process of finalizing the shipping costs. Once those have been nailed down and the pledges are locked in, we will be charging your card for shipping (if you are receiving the book or other physical rewards).
Then it's on to the home stretch: fulfillment. We'll release the final PDF to all backers after orders are locked and shipping is charged. Our fulfillment house needs a couple days to prep once they receive the pallets of books. Short version: We expect to start shipping rewards within the first two weeks of November if everything continues to flow as planned. That's four months ahead of our projected delivery date.
Thanks for your support! There's been a terrific outpouring of love for Stewpot and we're very much looking forward to getting this game into your hands. We'll have another update for you when we start the actual fulfillment process.
One final note: Monster of the Week is a fun, fluid RPG about supernatural monster hunters investigating weird phenomena and battling powerful cryptids. You may have heard it played on The Adventure Zone, The CritShow, and elsewhere.
My address is mostly correct, but it's missing my apartment number, is there anything I can do at this point to ensure I receive my physical copy? My phone number is also outdated so I can't even be called.
I'm curious to hear what types of old characters you guys are planning to bring into Stewpot from your past games. I myself am thinking of calling together my old martial arts friends to get our ancient greek party back together and open a tavern maybe with my enby half-elf warlock Tychaeus maybe as a cook? What about you all?
Hi - just checking in to see when the full PDF will be available and when the book will be delivered? Hoping a new post might actually get a response from Evil Hat.
Looking forward to this book!
