Quick check-in this week to keep you in the loop on behind the scenes happenings with Awaiting the Burning Gods.
Lets Start with some New Art!
The hits keep coming as Daniel is working through the many art pieces I've commissioned to bring the creatures and landscapes of Ma'at to life. This week I've got our first NPC feature - the no-nonsense leader of the Landis University research team, Dr. Sylvia Dehavilland. Plus, who is that sneaking up behind her? I'm sure it's nothing right? Right?

New Add-Ons
By request I've added a few more items to the add-ons section. Now you can add additional copies of the Awaiting the Burning Gods zine in case you want one for a friend, for your players, or to keep on the shelf while your other copy takes a beating at the table. I won't judge! ;-). I've also made copies of the Dying Hard on Hardlight Station prequel pamphlet adventure, The Horror on Tau Sigma 7, available too. It's a tight one-shot that works great as a lead in for further adventures in Nakatomi Sector 1365 or as a tight stand alone scenario to introduce new players to the world of Mothership.
Project Update
We're slowly but surely edging our way toward the Smuggler's Guide bonus zine stretch goal. While the campaign continues DAI, Daniel and I have been hard at work. You've seen some of Daniel's work already. Meanwhile I've been focused on drafting out the job board for the smuggler's guide. It's a lot of fun and I'm putting extra attention into it since it is the most popular part of the book based on the poll so many of completed. I've been planning out the audio aids as well and even made a few small tweaks to the book itself; creatin more opportunities for PCs to encounter the audio logs left behind by Landing Party A in their search for survivors among the ruins.
While I've been working on that, DAI has been laying out the text of the zine itself. Even with the Smuggler's Guide content separated out into its own book we're looking at around 32-36 pages for just the Awaiting the Burning Gods adventure alone. Awesome!
Alright, that's a wrap for this week. Questions, comments, hellos? Reach out in the comments below - I'm happy to answer anything you'd like to know about the zine and the production process. The home stretch of the campaign approaches! Thanks for being a part of this ride so far, can't wait for what comes next.
This is the big one! The Smuggler’s Guide becomes its own zine, featuring “Shoot the Messenger”, a thrilling bonus adventure by DG Chapman (Haunting of Ypsilon 14, Another Bug Hunt).
Goal: C$100,000 reached! — We did it! This project reached this goal!
