Project Update: Missed the campaign? It's not too late!
Check it out right here!
Note that if you are already a backer, this is not the place to add things to an existing pledge. We'll have the pledge manager up and running soon, and that will be where you can add any dice, books, or the GM Kit to your pledge, as well as enter your shipping info.
Project Update: May Update: Preview PDF Is Here!
Great news, we’ve gotten permission from N.K. Jemisin to release a preview PDF to you. There are a couple of things that still need sorting, and we need to add the index, but this is the game and you could start playing it tomorrow. A few notes:
- You will get an email with a link that will let you download the game from BackerKit.
- This PDF is for backers only. Please do not share it with others.
- There is a light watermark that says Preview Edition. Obviously, that will not appear in the final PDF.
- If you spot any typos or other problems, send them in an email to [email protected].

Project Update: April Update: Stay on Target
We are still in the approvals process for the Fifth Season RPG, so there is not a whole lot to report on right now. Next week we should be sending the book plates to print. We will send those directly to N.K. Jemisin for signature. Once we have a print date for the game, we will put in our order for the dice. We are timing production so everything arrives in the warehouse at roughly the same time. Then it’s picking, packing, and shipping.
Until next month.

Project Update: March Update: Approvals and Proofing!
I’ve got a short update this month but it’s a good one. I have submitted PDFs of the Fifth Season RPG core rulebook and GM’s Kit booklet to N. K. Jemisin for final approval! While she is looking them over, we are doing another round of proofing.
As I’ve mentioned before, N. K. is a busy woman so we are unsure how long this approvals phase will take. She has the right, of course, to ask for changes to the text and art to ensure that we get everything right. Naturally, we want that too, and we are ready to address any changes that need to happen.
The next step is a beta PDF to you. At that point, you can see and play the game. I say beta because inevitably getting a game in front of many sets of eyes will turn up things we’ll want to fix before it goes off to print.
That’s the news I have to share this month. I can see the finish line from here!

I believe the title says it all. I fully expect my heirs in 2185 to be very confused when this project finally delivers. When I tell people that I've got a crowdfunding project that is over a year past its deadline, they all nod knowingly. When I say it’s by Green Ronin, that's when the confusion begins. Being over a year past delivery date with no end in sight, a staggering lack of communication about how the project is actually going, missing a second delivery date without even a peep about why or an updated project timeline.... This is the sort of thing you'd expect from some YouTuber trying to publish their first RPG splatbook, not a publishing company with a couple of decades of publishing experience and a sizable library of published works. Basically; Guys, you are better than this. Or at least you should be. So why is this project being treated this way? So, will my heirs get the book by 2185? Or will it be my far distant descendants in the 41st century?
