Evan here, been working HARD to get all these files finalized, and we finally did it! I've sent off the files to the printer and have prepped them for digital delivery as well. You should be getting an email shortly (if you haven't already) with the finalized digital books. Thank you all so much for your support, feedback, and encouragement.
What's next?
The printer will prep the files and create what are called "wet proofs" a test print of all the items to verify final quality and layout. Not sure the timing on that, but I should get those via airmail probably in a few weeks. I'll be sure to do a livestream unboxing on the Nimble youtube channel whenever the proofs arrive! (this also provides one final opportunity to make last second changes in case we missed anything) Once approved, the printer will be in full production, then shipping to the fulfillment centers (this will be the long wait part, nothing we can do about that, boats only go so fast). I'll keep providing updates as I receive them but the process is now out of my hands and I'll be waiting on pins and needles just like the rest of you π.
I'll be working on overhauling the Nimble website to be more helpful (hosting links to the already VERY lively Nimble 3rd party and homebrew content scene), more resources, FAQ, wrapping up the Foundry module and other digital tools, talking with other VTTs, and producing more Nimble content too!
The Witch Class
The class is well into production, currently in pre-alpha but I'm really liking how fun and unique it feels and plays but I don't want to rush it. I'd rather have a great class that takes a bit longer than a rushed, mediocre one. The class needs more time to cook so I'm going to take the next couple months to keep working on it and playtesting.
So to give myself more time I've separated the printing of the Witch class to a US based company that can turn it around more quickly. If the timing lines up it'll be shipped with the rest of the printed goods, if not it'll ship whenever its ready.
For those who backed Faerie you'll still be getting it for free. For those who didn't, I'll be making it available on the nimbleRPG.com webstore later.
MORE Content Coming Soon?
For those who want to follow, vote on, and contribute to future content, I'm considering opening up a Patreon (or Substack, or other thingβlet me know in the comments if you're interested in that and have a preference). But I'm already cooking on a few things...
Thanks again to all for your continued support, it means a lot to me πͺ
