Well, that's it! The Kickstarter is finished. Thank you to everybody who backed, and I can't wait to get the book into your hands.
So what's next?
Artwork is still coming in, looking good to be on track for our original timeline.
Editing and proofreading are also happening now, all running on time.
I'll send out an update when the Backerkit goes live, where you'll be able to select and pay for shipping and any additional addons (Mythic Bastionland and Electric Bastionland). This is also where late-backers will be able to place pre-orders for the book too.
A preview PDF will go out around the end of January, which won't have all of the artwork yet, but will have the near-final text. This will also be a handy chance to grab any last-minute typos that slip through.
By the end of March the final PDF will be sent out, with full art and final text, first through Backerkit and later through Drivethrurpg, and the book will be sent to print shortly afterwards.
Print copies will be sent out in May, aiming to have all Kickstarter distribution completed by the end of that month.
I'll keep you all updated as things progress. Until then, a final thank you for helping to bring the book to life.
Looking for more?
Bastionland is the catch-all place to keep up to date with what else I'm working on.
There's also the Discord Server where you can speak with me and other people who are enjoying my games.
And my Newsletter is the best way to stay completely up to date.
Bye for now!
The End is Nigh - 48 Hours Left for Mythic Bastionland

We're into the final hours! Let's kick off with another peek at some of the incoming artwork.
The Legion is one of my favourite myths, so it's great to see them dragged into reality through Alec's art.
I also did a video running through the travel and time procedures of the game.
As always it really helps if people are able to spread the word of this campaign, and thanks to everybody who has done so already.
Bye for now!

Final 9 Days (plus a new spread and a stream)

We're going into the final 9 days of the campaign, and again I wanted to thank everybody who's backed the book so far and been spreading the word.
Tonight at 9pm GMT I'll be streaming a short guide to running the game, especially the hex-crawling procedure. I'll try to answer any questions that come up during the stream, so come along if you had something to ask.
Also, here's one of the spreads with some shiny new artwork. Great stuff by Alec, as always.
Next week the editing of the book begins, so I'm bracing myself. Here's hoping a few more backers jump on board to ease the pain!
Bye for now,
Chris
Two Milestones! And a vision of the City.

We've surpassed £200,000 and are approaching 4,000 backers, both huge milestones for this project. Thanks again to everybody who's bravely hopped on board already.
I've had a few queries about the City Quest, which is hinted at throughout the Quickstart. While it's a purpose close to the heart of every Knight, it's also widely seen as sort of impossible to achieve, but that shouldn't stop you trying!
In fact, there is a secret extra Myth, with slightly different implementation, at the back of the Myth section in the complete book.
Of course, you'll need to reach the rank of Knight Radiant to even be considered worthy for this task, not something easily achieved in a lifetime. It'll be interesting to hear how often this actually makes it to the table.
Oh, and here's a nice updated version of the cover piece.

Hello!
Thanks again to everybody who's backed this. I'll be showing a preview of some yet unseen artwork in a few days, but in the meantime there's just another quick update.
While I'll answer any questions asked here in the comments, I'm doing an AMA on Reddit tonight, so check it out if you have a question or want to see what other people ask.
