I’m happy to report that shipping has officially begun. If you backed a physical copy—or a physical copy with dice—your package is now being packed and sent out.
I’ve been stressed about this day since I first decided to launch this Kickstarter. Reaching this point felt impossible at times; I genuinely didn’t know if it would succeed.
But it did. And now, the stress is finally starting to lift.
Now that shipping is underway, I’ve sent out the at-cost print codes for the Colonial Gothic Guidebook. These were sent to all backers of the physical tiers, and they should be in your inboxes now.
You’ll notice that you received two codes: one for the softcover version and one for the hardcover version. Feel free to redeem either—or both—whichever you prefer.
I’ll likely post another update in a few days as a final wrap-up to the whole campaign.
In the meantime, we’ve reached the real goal of this project: getting the physical copies into your hands.
Whew.
Guidebook Update

Nothing major—just forgot to order the proof copies of the Rulebook and Guidebook from DriveThruRPG. That means I can’t yet release the at-cost code for the Guidebook, which I had planned to send out alongside the other rewards. So, that plan’s on hold for now.
In the past, I would’ve been really hard on myself for something like this. But honestly, with everything going on in my world, I’m choosing not to spiral over it. It’s a delay, not a disaster.
Once I’ve reviewed and approved the proofs, I’ll be sending out two at-cost print codes—one for the hardcover and one for the softcover. You can order whichever format you prefer (or both). My goal is simple: I just want you to have the book in your hands.
Until the proofs arrive, I can’t move forward with the codes—and yes, I’m frustrated that I forgot. But I’ll fix it, and I’ll keep you updated every step of the way.
Thanks for your patience.

First, let's start with some visual aids.
Yes, the dice have arrived at the warehouse.
So, with the dice in hand... that was a bad joke... what does that mean?
Books will start to go out. How soon? I've been told by mid-week.
Once the word has been sent, the process has started, and I will send out print codes for the Guidebook.
The end is almost here. We are almost out of the tunnel and into the light.
The hardest part is waiting

So, yeah, I know, nothing to report. I am waiting for confirmation that the dice have arrived at the warehouse, and once they do, shipping can begin.
Until then?
We wait.
So what am I doing in the meantime? Writing. A lot of writying.
Fort what?
This game, of course.
Next week I wil go into what I am working on for post release.
The Guidebook in hand

Yesterday afternoon, I sent you the link to download your copy of the Colonel Gotic Guidebook via Drivethrurpg. As you know, the Guidebook came to be because I overwrote it. If I had published the game with all of the content, the Core Rulebook would have totaled 424 pages.
Yeah, that is a lot of pages.
Regarding the print code, I will send it out as soon as the backer rewards start shipping.
Before you ask, I am holding off because I want both books to arrive simultaneously.
Anyway, I finally feel as if I am at the end of the tunnel with this project. Now, I need to consider whether I should undertake another one.
As for the physical copies, I will inform you as soon as I find out when they arrive at the warehouse and start going out.
