The boilers are pumping and we're at max steam! I don't know the technical term, I'm not a war rig engineer! You get what I mean!
Thanks to the support of more than 465 backers, Onyx Path will be able to develop and print hardcover editions of Trinity Continuum: Steam Wars!
There's more to celebrate! Not only did we fund the project in the first week, we unlocked FOUR Stretch Goals over the final weeks of the campaign. That's right - we unlocked our final stretch goal target today, in the final hours of this campaign!
ACHIEVED! -At $20,000 in Funding - BACKER SHIRT DESIGN ON REDBUBBLE
A TC: Steam Wars-themed Backer shirt will be hosted on Onyx Path’s Redbubble store for a limited time. All backers will be notified when the shirt becomes available for purchase. [Envoy reward tier+]
We're gonna be so stylin'!
That's in addition to the trio of Stretch Goals we'd already unlocked!
We will create a PDF supplement introducing a new threat for the war rigs to face - titanic beasts that rise from the depths. Delving into the origin of these monsters, this supplement will be released for purchase on DriveThruRPG and added as a free bonus reward to all backers receiving the Trinity Continuum: Steam Wars hardcover book as part of their rewards. [Captain reward tier+]
ACHIEVED! - DIGITAL WALLPAPER
Fantastic TC: Steam Wars artwork will be used to create a wallpaper for your computer desktop. This digital wallpaper will be added as a free bonus reward for all backers supporting this project. [Envoy reward tier+]
ACHIEVED! - TC: STEAM WARS REFERENCE PDF
We will create a useful reference PDF with handy charts for TC: Steam Wars Storyguide that can be printed out or kept on a computer or tablet! This PDF will be released for purchase on DriveThruRPG and added as a free bonus reward to all backers receiving the Trinity Continuum: Steam Wars PDF as part of their rewards. [Pilot reward tier+]. All backers receiving the Trinity Continuum: Steam Wars hardcover book as part of their rewards will also receive a link to order a print-on-demand version at a discounted cost [Captain reward tier+].
So a huge congratulations to Matthew and Eddy and the team on this project, and to Larry Blamire, who provided so much inspiration and enthusiasm, and to all of the backers who've joined in to make this possible. I'm happy about the goals we hit and rewards we introduced, but I'm also always amazed and excited about having more than 465 backers join in to support this truly quirky niche game!
COMMUNICATION
So, as noted in today's earlier update, starting in April I'll be sending out updates once a month and whenever we've got a new goal, survey, or other item to cover. If you have any questions or need clarification on something related to the campaign, feel free to get in touch. I may take a bit to answer as I recover from these past four weeks and take some time to shovel my driveway and clean up my desk!
I'll also see if I can sneak a compiled draft manuscript out to you maybe in the middle of March. Nothing changed, just smashed together in order.
