Project Update: A Short Update From Steve

Writing this, as we work on the next stretch goal . . . mostly because there are so many comments to the last update that I can no longer find the new ones.

Playmats were the #1 request. A 10 x 10 to fit in the box is too small to be useful. I think we could make it work at 10 x 20, but that would mean either (a) making it cardboard, or (b) bending a neoprene one into the Extra Goodies box and HOPING that it is not creased by the Colossal Die or the other goodies. I feel like that might be a faint hope.

A 10 x 20 mat, whatever it is made of, could include spaces for 5 "worn" items, a Cheated item, two Races, two Classes, three sideways Carried Items, and four unslotted Treasures, Spells, or whatever. Pic NOT attached because it exists only as a scrawl on my physical desk.

We could sell packs of 5 more as add-ons for those who want everybody to have it.

Some people are saying "No cardboard" and some are saying "Cardboard is fine." 

Or, OTHER CARDS. There are lots of reprint possibilities here, while keeping to Kovalic illos. Adding cards with brand new illustrations would push back the delivery date, no ifs, ands, or buts about it.

Or, THE NEW COOL IDEA that actually adds a game mechanic. This one is still in print buying.

Please note that some of the suggestions I see, like "dividers" and "exclusive cards," are already covered. Note also that by now you have probably seen something to give you hope for the 25mm dice.

Thank you again for your support, and for your patience as we wrestle with the kind of problem that we really like to have.
