[Legendary Games] Is Ultimate Strongholds Dead?


Product Discussion

I write this with some concern, since I was incredibly hyped to see both this and Ultimate Armies come out. However, after some energetic discussion about it being worked on, I have heard not a single peep about it in about a year. It was originally discussed nearly 3 years ago that it would be coming out, and yet nothing else has come about it. I've noticed that Legendary Games has been focusing more and more on putting out 5E versions of their products, so I wonder if that has been taking more of their time from doing Pathfinder products. Also, I haven't heard anything about Ultimate Armies since September. The real question is: have these products been greatly delayed, or have they been abandoned to work on other products instead?

Ultimate Armies is still on my list, but I've been mostly focusing on either development on other people's books or completing stuff for Kickstarters that people have already paid for.

This year I got the second of the Unholy Trinity off my desk with the release at long last of Fort Scurvy, with Ultimate Armies the last one on my list. It's still there, and I've done some more small bits on it as I've been able to, but we've got Kickstarter stuff still stacked up that needs to get out the door first.

Ultimate Strongholds is still being worked on as well, but that one's not me; rather, Ben Walklate (who did the terrific Ultimate Factions, which is on sale for just $2 this week at the Legendary Games website!) is doing that one. I've just emailed him today to see how far along he is and how close we are to getting it up and out the door.

Here's to hoping that you finish the other stuff soon so that you can't get back to working on these two products, after all PF2 is coming down the road! You always do quality work, so I'm really looking forward to how Ultimate Armies and Ultimate Strongholds come out.

And FYI, I picked up Ultimate Factions earlier today when it was mentioned that Ben Walklate had finished it in the Strongholds thread, couldn't resist the $2 bargain for such a great product LOL.

Hi there folks, sorry for the silence from me about this. The short version is that it’s happening, and I really want to gave it done before the Pathfinder Playtest (and quite a bit sooner if possible).

The long version is that I have two maths problems, a lot of words left to do, and a day job. Ultimate Strongholds is my passion project - I want it done as well as possible, and I want it to do everything I expect of it.

I won’t make excuses (I’ve deleted loads of this post where I was doing just that), the time it’s taking are me and my life, and that’s my problem, and I apologise for letting this drag out as much as it has.

I will say that I am looking forward very much to both Ultimate Armies and Ultimate Strongholds, and will be delighted when they become available. I really do want those two!
