Delivery!
almost 6 years ago – Sat, May 05, 2018 at 05:01:36 PM

We've received a few reports that the books have reached people! If you're in the UK, you should have already received it (or get it over the next few days). In the US and further abroad, you're looking at longer wait times, but: we're good, and it's done!

Coming soon: 

- Secrets Kept From The Sun, a cryptography guidebook for Spire by Chad Walker

- Audio commentary on every chapter and interviews with the artists and producer

- Kings of Silver, a campaign frame in which players have to try and take over the casino district

Gonna lie down for a bit now I think.

Books are with the distributors!
about 6 years ago – Wed, Apr 25, 2018 at 08:32:12 PM

Just a short note to say that: the books are all printed and bound, the posters are ready, and I’ve received word that everything’s at the distribution centre in Nottingham ready to go over the next few days.

Which means that you should have your books by the start of next week for U.K. customers, and then a little bit longer for that as you get further away from us.

That’s it. Hope you enjoy the book, and please let us know about any games you’re running!

LOCKING DOWN BACKERS.

We're locking down addresses this weekend! Please log in to your backerkit and check that your delivery address is correct.

LAUNCH PARTY

We're having a launch party for the book, and you're invited! It's at the St Christopher's Inn in London Bridge at 6:30pm on April 25th. We're going to have a few drinks to celebrate the success of the project, maybe make a speech or two - you know the deal. If things go to plan, there should be books there on the night. You can get a (free) ticket at the Eventbrite page here – we'd love to see some of you there.

Locking down addresses, Eidolon Sky
about 6 years ago – Mon, Apr 09, 2018 at 12:17:11 AM

TWO THINGS:

1) We're going to be posting out the books very soon! If you've changed your address since you signed up, please make sure it's all up to date on Backerkit. We're going to be locking down addresses on Sunday 15th April. (If you've added anything to your order, you can expect to be charged imminently.)

2) We've released Eidolon Sky, our first proper campaign frame for Spire! You can learn more about it on our store page, but best of all, it's pay-what-you-want. it's got everything you need to get started with a campaign of Spire right away.

Cheers,

- Grant

March update
about 6 years ago – Wed, Mar 28, 2018 at 02:07:56 AM

BLACK MAGIC.

The Black Magic sourcebook is live! This book includes rules for Blood-Witches, Deep Apiarists, Demonology and more. If you backed at a level which included stretch goal content, you should have an email alerting you to the file upload on Backerkit. (If you didn't get an email, log into your Backerkit account; you'll be able to access the file through there.) If you didn't back at the stretch goal level, you can buy the sourcebook PDF from our website.

BLOOD AND DUST.

The adventure from the quickstart rules-set, Blood and Dust, is now available as a pay-what-you-want product from our website - get it here. It's been updated to the current rules, and comes complete with pre-filled character sheets so you and your friends can start playing Spire right away.

PRINTING.

We've sent off the corrected proofs to the printers, and they're in the process of producing the books. From there, they'll print the whole lot, and then send off the books (and posters) to the distributors in Nottingham, who'll send them on to you all individually. (While that's happening, we're getting a copy of each edition of the book sent to our door - we're not expecting any problems, but if they accidentally print the pages the wrong way up it's much easier for us to return the print run from our distributor than it is to get everyone to send them back.) Hopefully you should receive your stuff sometime next month. Once we get a more accurate timeline, we'll let you know.

UKGE 2018.

We're pleased to announce that we'll be on at the UK Games Expo in Birmingham on the 1st to the 3rd of June as part of the UK Indie League, a group of smaller exhibitors who are teaming up to rent some sales space. Come along and say hello - we'll have signed copies of Spire as well as our other games for sale, as well as the infamous Honey Heist t-shirts (as seen on Critical Role). Even if you don't want to buy a game, we'd love to see you!

That's all for now.
