The Deluxe Dice for The Magnus Archives Roleplaying Game and their Leitner-style Deluxe Dice Box are the only things outstanding for this campaign. We want you to know these have not been forgotten. Due to the current tariff situation, we’re currently trying to find an alternative manufacturer to our originally planned partner. This product is deluxe in many ways, which complicates manufacturing and limits the available facilities and partners who can meet our needs in all ways including production quality. We’re anxious to get this out as soon as we can, but due to the global trade environment, it’s still a ways off.
Thank you all for your patience and support.
Team MCG
