<p>I won't go into too much detail, as that is the fertile ground of one Mr. Greg Vaughan. I will say, however, that The Blight and both Perilous Vistas books are in very different stages of "done". One book is in development, one book is done, and another book is "done", with final edits/checking and final layout being completed.</p>
<p>Its not my place to say what book is where, as I am not managing those titles. I will say that there is no overlap of responsibilities, and while we are all very busy, one book is not taking away from another. </p>
<p>And I fully understand not backing a Kickstarter while a previous Kickstarter is outstanding. That is a personal decision, and one we respect, just like not backing a Kickstarter at all; that is always our fans choice, and we very much appreciate when we earn your backing.</p>
<p>We have a fairly long history of Kickstarting projects. We have completed (almost) all of them, with The Blight outstanding. It WILL be completed. We are very dissapointed in ourselves for it having taken this long, but, we made the decision in-house that we were not going to produce a sub-par product to hit our date (or reduce the time it has taken). At this point, a poor product would be disastrous. A good product (I'm not going to be egotistical and say a great product; wait, have you met me??? this is GREAT!!!) means the time invested, while exceeding expectations, was worth it. </p>
<p>We respect our fans, and if a project goes long, we'll ask for your forgiveness, but we won't cut corners on our quality. We owe you that.</p>

<p>SG</p>So, final proofs went to layout this weekend, I'm potentially going to have the print pdf (not the one for you guys) done before PaizoCon. If I get that back, Im going to take it to Kinko's and get a print done there, so people can see this really exists!
Oh, my albatross is nearing its end!

<p>CD S&W is at the printer, some advance physical copies should be available at NTRPGCon (in extremely limited numbers). Rest will go out when we get back.</p>

<p>RA Sub is almost finished being written. There are maybe 4-6 more rooms on one level, and an additional Wilderness Location to be placed, then map checks to make sure everything is there, then layout. Fingers crossed, by the end of the month. And just so no one thinks we've been sitting on our thumbs, we added about 50% more content with this re-write, so while I know it's terribly, terribly late, it's also, much, much bigger then it was in the separate installments.</p>
<p>In all, off the top of my head, there are Levels 1D (1 overland map, 1 dungeon map), Level 2C (covering 3 sections of maps, maybe 30+ rooms?), Level 3D (2 map sections, 20+ rooms?), Level 6? (dont remember the letter here, 1 map); the New Encounters chapter that people were luke-warm about has 4-5(?) added locations (including one creepy-ass swamp family; if you liked Nic Logue's Hook Mountain Massacre, these could be the spiritual neighbors of the Kreeg's; and Hecate's faithful finally make a more prominent appearance in the Troll Fens).</p>
<p>All in all, there is some really good stuff in here. Oh, and if you wanted a little more detail about the ties between Rappan Athuk and Tsar, we got you covered. :-)</p>
