Hi everyone!
I’m back with another update on the general state of Shades of Vengeance! As I said in the last post, I’m hoping to do these every week from now on.
A lot has happened in the last week (it’s amazing how often I say that sort of thing!).
Era: Lost Legend has now gone in Digital Format to all Kickstarter backers. This is a tremendous achievement – I can’t easily express how it feels to complete a game after 11 months.
There’s a lot more work still, of of course – the files have been sent to the printers and what they produce will need careful checking, as well as dealing with the distribution for hundreds of books. I’ve done it a lot of times before, of course, but it’s nice to take a moment and look over an achievement like this.
The Era: Survival Expansions are still consuming a lot of my time each day! Backers will be pleased to know that Encounters En Route is almost ready to go out, and that the Foundation Campaign Books 1 and 2 are currently in the first round of proofreading.
That only leaves me Settlements & People (which I’m working on next), Diaries of a Madman (which Jennifer Martin is currently writing the stories for) and Aqua (which I have long said would be the last book, because there’s not a lot more to do with it). I’d say things are going well with these Expansions in general, and I am fairly sure I’ll be able to give you more news soon.
A Titan’s Rise has also taken a lot of my time this month, which will not be a surprise. The Audio Drama is finishing on Kickstarter on Sunday and I’m getting the chance to work on a whole bunch of awesome Era: The Consortium goodies to go out with it, which is good fun.

As always in the last week of the month, Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/SoV) released last Sunday with yet another awesome session for Era: The Consortium. This is one we ran on Discord, just for fun, during the week before. I got to play and it was an absolute blast!
That’s about all I have for you this week, but hold onto your hat, because we have some amazing stuff for you next week, including the launch of a new games Kickstarter, with a comics Kickstarter not far behind it!
See you then!
