Hey folks!

Quick update!

The changes for the Deluxe edition are to layout! We had to layout the coloring book first, so the Deluxe changes are happening now. We'll be doing the POD files at the same time.

The coloring book has been ordered, and is at the printer (the proof is awaiting Larry's approval.)

Pinnacle is finalizing Adventure Edition. We've got our list of potential changes, but until it's finalized, more might pop up, so we've got playtesters on hold!

As soon as those come to us and we have a finalized file, we'll do a marathon of playtests (we've got 12 hours scheduled, and we might livestream some, we'll update you on that!) and then we're to the printer.

We're eager to get this game to you and get to our first expansion! News will be coming soon on that front to backers, so you can expect lots of support for Monster Hunter: Savage!

Happy December folks!

We're hard at work finalizing the changes to the MHI rulebook based on your feedback, and running those past Larry (who is hard at work writing books right now!)

In addition to the changes to the text, we're also making alterations to the layout, which will take some time. Our goal is to have the revised PDF of the Savage Worlds Deluxe edition to you by the end of the month and proof copies on our way to us, so we can pass you the codes as fast as possible.

The new Savage Worlds rules are coming to us in PDF form, and we're already outlining and testing some of the changes we are making to the mechanics here. This will be much faster, and we're anticipating having the book to the printer (who is US based, so we'll have a much faster turn-around) by mid-January at the latest. Our goal is to have the books to you by the end of Q1 2019!

Thanks!

Update & New Savage Worlds!

Hey everyone!

It's time for an update!

Savage Worlds Adventure Edition

First, the latest edition of Savage Worlds is on Kickstarter right now! You can see it by clicking THIS LINK!

As we talked about before, the final version of the game will be on these rules (but you'll all get a PDF and Print on Demand coupon for the previous rules too.)

Feedback and Updates

We closed the feedback form. Thank you to everyone who submitted. We've also been reading your comments here and taking the feedback. 

Based on your feedback, we're going to be revising the player's rules chapter a bit (we'll give you a list of changes below.) Originally, we'd set out with Larry to create a rules chapter that was a toolbox designed to emulate how Larry game masters, and provide support for his world. Larry is a very improv focused GM and we were trying to emulate his style.

After listening to the feedback and talking with Larry, we're going to be making some changes to this chapter to enhance it. The changes we'll be making are below: 

  • Improved Character Creation guidelines
  • Improved Equipment rules and clarification (stats for equipment, clearer starting equipment, etc.)
  • More Monster Profiles. While we won't put every monster in the book (the Savage Worlds corebook has some), we will work on dramatically increasing the count.
Additionally, once that's done, we'll be rolling in the profiles created by Larry for the NPCs of the setting. 

This rewriting is going to be significant, and will take us a week or two, during which we'll be also noting all the changes and edits you provided during the feedback stage. 

Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback. We heard you and we're listening!

PDF OUT!

Hello!

The PDF for the MHI:Savage Worlds book is out via DriveThruRPG email!

You will notice it's not fully completed (it's missing some page references and NPC/PC write-ups). Those pieces will be added once backer errata and edits are added in. (The page count will shift, so we have to wait until the main text is locked down.) 

AT THIS LINK, you will find a form for submitting questions and errata.

These form will be open for two weeks, after which we will close it, finalize the book, and provide POD Codes. 

Thank you!

Hey folks!

This weekend, you're going to start seeing the first few PDF rewards filtering out. Here's how that's going to happen.

You're going to get an email from DriveThruRPG. That email will go to your BackerKit email (which is likely the same one as your Kickstarter.) It will include a link for a PDF. You can redeem that link through ANY DriveThru Account, regardless of what email address receives the link. 

You simply click the link, and redeem the free PDF! 

Larry is going to be doing a final check on the rulebook PDF, which might cause a day or two delay, but we'll be getting it out to you as soon as he's done!

That PDF will be accompanied by a form where you can report errors to us, so we can correct the text. We had multiple professional writers and editors on the text, but no matter what, errors always slip through! So, we'll leave that form open for two weeks, after which, we'll update the PDF, and proof the POD copies before sending that coupon out to you. 

Looking forward to putting this first wave into your hands!

Thanks everyone for your patience and support! It's always an imprecise business and having awesome backers and such a great community has made the rough patches less rough!
