Project Update: #15 - July Update
Hello Mercenaries,
It's still early days in the production of Valraven: The Chronicles of Blood and Iron, but things are well underway. Read on!
TL;DR: 86% of the surveys have been filled, we have started to review the existing material for Valraven, our other game Dead Air: Seasons is nominated for Best Setting at the ENNIEs and you can vote for it HERE.
Survey Completion
86% of backers have now completed the Pledge Manager survey. If you haven't, or if you're not sure, please check now. This is a friendly reminder that we cannot send you your rewards if the survey is not completed.
Completed surveys will be locked down on July 31st.
- If you paid any outstanding fees with PayPal, you're good to go.
- If you added your credit card information there instead, we'll be charging cards a couple of days into August (you'll get a warning from Backerkit before this happens).
You can still add add-ons to your pledge from HERE. And don't worry if you move in the next few months, we'll keep addresses editable until much later.
Questions? Reach out to [email protected] and I’ll help.
Reviewing existing material
A few days ago we met for our annual meeting and I agreed with the game's author, Alberto Tronchi, on the work to be done. We set up the files of all the existing Valraven material, stretch goals, etc., and we agreed on the first steps to take, namely:
- Implement some clarifications and suggestions that have come up over the years since the release of the Italian edition of the game in 2021.
- Figure out which sections we want to completely replace with updated text.
- Re-evaluate the structure of the book in light of the improvements we made to the games we published after the first edition of the game.
This is pretty tedious work, but it needs to be done before we start translations or move on to writing the brand-new material.
Once this is done over the summer, I'll be able to create a detailed tracker of everything that needs to be translated and start that process as Alberto focuses on the new stuff.
It might take a while for you to see some excerpt, but trust me, you want us to do the boring work too.
Dead Air: Seasons in an ENNIEs nominee!
Our other game, Dead Air: Seasons, which some of you may have added as an add-on to this campaign, has been nominated for Best Setting at the ENNIEs Tabletop RPG Awards 2024. This is our third nomination out of two games we translated, so I guess we're doing something right. Voting is now open – if you know nothing about the game you can still add it to your pledge or get it from HERE.
We're a small company, and this second phase of the voting is entirely up to the public - we have a shot at winning only with your help.
You can vote for:
The best vote you can give us is 1, but we'll take any vote, really.
Voting does not require registration and is based on IP.
The last day to vote is July 21.
Cheers!
