Hey folks,

I come bearing good news, the book is on the verge of being done!
Alongside this, I've had some products and packaging delivered, the 24-min audio-track completed, and the NPC Cards are pretty much ready for print. Awesomely, everything is coming together. Well... except for Mayday Files which I'll talk about below.

The Book: We're currently doing some final edits/reviews/design choices, and if all pans out well, I'll be sending out v1.0 to everyone this weekend (or mid next week at the very latest). The cards are also ready for print, we're just making sure all the text is finalized before we send anything away. Here's some shiny previews.

Patches & Packaging: I've also received the patches and packaging for those that grab Bundled Rewards.

Audio Track: The talented ajsherwoodmusic has finished the massive 24-minute audio track. While I'm 100% biased, i think it came out amazing. I've been listening to it on repeat in the background as I've been typing this last week. It'll be the perfect ambiance for running the module.

Bonus Goodies: As I've been finalizing the book, I've also realized a few extra printables and

Mayday Files: On to some less than perfect news. To put it simply, I stuffed up and created a print error. When pledge numbers started rolling in, it became clear I'd need to do another small print run of Mayday Files to fill the orders. As an Aussie, the smaller books I've designed have been A5 sized.
With MM25 (and therefore Terminal Directive) being Half-Letter, and that being the standard size zine for Mothership, i decided now was a good time to re-do the book in the slightly different sized configuration (its a few millimeters different in height and width for those that haven't ever looked at paper differences).

It was a pretty simple affair, transfer the pages to the new page design, slightly reshape them, make sure everything fit, send it to the printer. It took less than two days to do.

Andddd that's where i stuffed up. Pages 38/39 & 40/41 hold the Marine/Marine Captain and the Marine Zealot respectively. I stuffed up and copied the Marine Zealot Text Page twice.

After many angry expletives aimed loudly at myself, i began trying to work out how to fix the error. Unfortunately, i simply can't afford to reprint the books. It's $1,500-ish i don't have spare. I also can't just leave the error, that's terrible. So the solution comes in the form of copying MCDM who made the same mistake a few years ago. I've organized printed full-page stickers with the correct Marine/Marine Captain text, and I'll be sticking them over the incorrect page.

On top of this, as a bonus "i stuffed up here's a freebie", I'm going to throw in 6x bonus Bounty Cards left over from the cross-collaboration of Syndicate Wastrels and 90 Seconds to Midnight.

It's not a perfect solution, but it solves the issue and hopefully leaves everyone happy (or at least not upset).

To those that grabbed Mayday Files, thank you for picking it up. I'm deeply sorry I've made the book a bit worse than it should be. It is one of my favorite products to have created due to all the awesome art and the connecting mayday audio logs, so It's incredibly frustrating that in trying to make the book a bit more compatible/easy to store I've created an unnecessary error.

Anyone that has ordered Mayday Files, through a bundle or on its own, and they DON'T like the sticker solution, send me a message here or an email - [email protected] - and I'll see about getting you a refund/credit.

For those glass half-full kinda people, hey, you got a limited edition copy!

Thanks for being here everyone! Keep your eyes out for the digital files real soon.

Cheers,
Dan.
