Print Update and Canadian Shipping
10 months ago
– Wed, Feb 14, 2024 at 02:09:21 AM
Hi All,
I've been speaking with Alec over the last week and unfortunately we've hit a few delays on the artwork and have had to reassess the timeline for completing the remaining pieces. This is for unavoidable reasons I won't go into, and a delay is the only way we could avoid compromising on the detail and quality of the pieces that we've seen so far.
After speaking with the print house I have a new timeline in place that should mean print copies will be sent out in August 2024, three months later than I'd planned. The final PDFs with all of the artwork should be available in June.
I'm sorry for this delay, and it's a painful decision to make, but the artwork is looking so fantastic that I'm certain it will be worth the wait.
Here are a couple of new Knights to enjoy.
Everybody should have received their backer surveys by now. If you haven't then you can go to https://mythicbastionland.backerkit.com/ and enter your email in the "lost my survey" section. You should all have access to the pre-print PDF, and I hope you're enjoying looking through.
There was also an issue with shipping prices for orders containing multiple books going to Canada, but the prices have now been updated.
Bye for now,
Chris
Backerkit Launch and Pre-Print PDF

The Backerkit is now live, with surveys going out to 5% of backers as a test run. The rest of you will get yours within the next few days.
When you complete the survey you'll also get access to the pre-print PDF. If you spot any typos in there then please enter them here: https://forms.gle/K6CRGVQkLVy1GwB98
If you know anybody who wanted the book but missed the kickstarter then pre-orders are also open here:
Bye for now!

February Update
10 months ago

Here's where we're at with things:
- The text of the book is now done!
- Art is trucking along nicely
- I'll be putting together the pre-print PDF at the start of next week, running the final checks on Backerkit, and then launching Backerkit ASAP
This means when you confirm your shipping you'll also be able to download the pre-print PDF. This won't have all the artwork, but will have all the text for the final book (minus the index, which is next on my list). Inevitably some typos will have slipped through into this version, so I'll include details for how to report them if you spot one.
Hopefully the next update I do will be launching the Backerkit.
Bye for now, and thanks again for supporting this project.

More Knights and Progress Continues

Happy New Year!
Editing, proofreading, and illustration is all continuing as planned.
I'm working to get the best shipping rates I can, and aiming to get that all finalised in time to launch the Backerkit around the end of January. This is also when late backers will be able to pre-order, and existing backers can pay for shipping and purchase add-ons. I'll post an update here when that happens, but my newsletter is another good place to stay up to date.
Here are a few Knights, some of which I've already teased elsewhere.
That's all for now!
Cheers,
Chris
End of Year Update
12 months ago

With things wrapping up for the end of the year I wanted to send out one last update.
The timeline from the previous update is still looking good. I'm working out the best time to open up Backerkit for shipping, addons, and pre-orders, but it won't be before January.
Over the next few weeks I'll respond to messages and comments as quickly as I can, but I'm also taking a bit of time away from work for Christmas, so don't be alarmed if it takes a bit longer than normal.
Thanks again, Merry Christmas, and here's to a Mythic 2024.
Chris
