Greetings Dead Tree Fans,
Boy has this project been an adventure! We know we are absolutely terrible at updating here on Indiegogo... mostly because we have been doing weekly updates on our website instead, and communicating with many of you directly. BUT As all of you already know... as you have received your digital copies already. We have finally finished the final book, "The Gilded Cage" and have sent it off to the printer. We still have some minor things to wrap up that aren't the big books, like maps and minifigs and etc and those are being worked on. The GM Blinds are done and being manufactured, the minifigs are in the middle of printing, and we are working on the map board as we speak.
We've also released our first racial expansion for a changeling playable race last month and are working on a second in our spare time. Either way, the big important pieces are done and the last bits are being mopped up.
For those who ordered digital packs and CDs, we are in the middle of setting up a new e-commerce platform, and will most likely send those who selected digital content a digital download via that platform if we can, if not you will all get a nice, neat all in one download package in your email from us directly. Those who wanted physical CDs will get them as soo as we get them manufactured, but for both of those there is a handfull of things we want to add in as goodies/bonuses that will still take a little extra clean up time to do, so while everyone received the books, the "all in one" packages are still a little ways off.
Those who ordered physical books, those will be put in the mail as soon as we get them, but as per usual you all have received digital copies while you wait.
Those waiting on Minifigurines, boxes, map boards GM blinds etc, we are currently working on getting all of that done, and fingers crossed for *EVERYTHING being done and mailed out by Christmas. Minifigurines will be done by then for sure, but the other stuff requires a lot of back and forth with printers, reviewing proofs etc. etc.
We also probably won't be able to aquire a telescoping box that will be able to fit EVERYTHING in it as per what we initially talked about at the start of the project, as the Locked safe is already bigger/thicker than the non special order boxes, so we will be focusing on have a box hold all the non book stuff and having the books be seperate from the boxes, in their own shelf box.
Either way, it's been a long time coming and we can see the finish line from here. So we wanted to thank you all for all of your support, patience and excitement these last few years! If you aren't already please join us on our Discord server: https://discord.gg/W3DdccR
Now, with those things all set, you are ready to go. Grab your dice, your gear, and always remember to dig an extra grave. It’s a nightmare out there.

Greetings Dead Tree Fans! We are writing to inform you all that our Pre-Order Store is up and running! You can find the store HERE: https://deadtree-studios.squarespace.com
A few things to note, for backers that wish to purchase add-ons to their rewards, we ask that after you purchase your add-ons, you email [email protected] with your pre-order store confirmation number, as well as the name, and email address you used for Indiegogo. We will then attach your Pre-order store purchase to your profile we have.
The other thing is that as we go along, we will be adjusting and editing things on the store as we need/see fit. So don't be surprised if you find things a little switched around one day. Being a pre-order store, some of the art and designs are still subject to change and get updated as we go further along. Thank kind of thing.
We will also remind you that we will be charging shipping for pre order store purchases at a later date to ensure that we can charge you the most accurate shipping costs, and not accidentally overcharge you.
See you next time Dead Tree Fans

Greetings Dead Tree Fans!
We are back and settled from TrotCon, our Sunday DevBlog will be up soon so feel free to check it out here: http://projectdeadtree.com/site/ when it does.
There is some very big news which affects all of our backers directly. With a heavy heart we have to inform you that due to situations outside of our control, we must delay our release date by 3 Months. BackerKit, has made the decision to offer us a refund and back out from supporting us. They told us that they do not believe that they can give us the quality of support that they pride themselves on and would like to give us a refund instead of potentially giving us a bad experience. This is due to the small size of our project. After a serious discussion among ourselves, we have decided to accept their offer for a refund and carry on by ourselves. However, this comes with a lot of work on our end that BackerKit was normally responsible for. As such, a lot of the work we have been focusing on will be put on hold so we can get this sorted out. We have decided that we will being setting up a square space store for those who wish to purchase add ons, and for those who missed the Indiegogo campaign itself. We hope to get that setup in about a week or so. We are also going to look into creating our own surveys to send out. If creating our own surveys looks like the best option, we will create them and send them out within a week. If not, then we will deal with all of our backers directly.
Those who payed more than their pledge level with the hopes of receiving BackerKit store credit, we will email you directly and discuss what it is that you want to do. We are more than willing to offer you credit ourselves for the purchase of add-ons, either through a form we draft up, or via email. You will be contacted soon to get this organized.
Other than that, things are going well, however our new estimated release date is DECEMBER 2017. We will try and get things released before then, but we would rather give you guys the best possible product, instead of rushing and letting all of you down. If you have any questions or concerns, you can email us at [email protected] or find us on our discord server https://discord.gg/xmtexjE .
To recap, we are delaying until December, setting up our own online store, deciding weather or not to create our own surveys and contacting those with "store credit" directly.
Thank you all, we really appreciate your support.

Greetings everyone!
Firstly we want to thank everyone for your support! It means a lot to us. For those who don't keep up with our Dev blog on our website, we are mad in the middle of crunch time getting everything ready. Currently books are undergoing re formatting for our back up printers and we are prepping for our appearance at Trotcon in July. However unless some big crazy random happenstance... happens, everything is still on schedule for us to start mailing out rewards come September. We are going to wait about 14 or so days for payment processing and whatnot before we send out our BackerKit surveys and then you guys will have until about the end of July/beginning of August to lock down tiers and mailing address, as well as to pay shipping fees. But we will get into that a little bit more when the time comes.
Either way, thank you all for the support, and we just can't wait to share our love of this system with all of you!
