Most importantly, we are so thankful to every single one of you who made this possible.
Thank you for following us in this new adventure. Thank you for helping us continue working on Harp & Scry! We truly love this project, and we cannot wait to share it with you.

PROJECT UPDATE
Project Update: Our collaboration with Modi Case
We've always wanted to collaborate with other cool TTRPG projects. But finding one that fit us wasn't easy.
We wanted a project that was relevant to all GMs, regardless of the universe they played in, no matter their playing style, whatever their story.
Well, we found one. Modi Case is the bag of holding to Amsel's grimoire. Where we store knowledge about your universe, the details of your campaign, the player notes and theories, and the sounds that resonate throughout it all, Modi Case stores your miniatures, trinkets, dice, maps, books, laptop, tokens, cards, markers, and much more.
If you also play board games, or miniature wargames, or TCGs, you can also use their system to store everything that comes with those. I'm going to make a daring hypothesis here and assume this will be useful to at least some of the people reading this.
Now, to be fair, you do need to have a 3D printer to print their system. That's how it's so modular. But, be honest, haven't you been looking for an excuse to get one, if you don't have one already? Now you have that excuse. It's for game transportation. It protects your investments in all this fancy game equipment. A sound investment filled with wisdom and reasonableness.
Alternatively, I'm sure options to outsource the printing exist. I'm not sure, and I'm busy looking into 3D printers.
Anyway, support Modi Case. They're starting their campaign soon, just like us. They're cool people behind a cool company that doesn't require subscriptions. And you can really tell how passionate they are. I've met them, and they really know and love their stuff.
We hope this announcement made you even more enthusiastic about May.
See you soon,
— The Amsel Team

🇫🇷 VERSION FRANÇAISE
Nous avons toujours voulu collaborer avec d’autres projets de JDR sympas. Mais en trouver un qui nous corresponde n’a pas été facile.
Nous voulions un projet qui s’adresse à tous les meneurs de jeu, quel que soit l’univers dans lequel ils évoluent, quel que soit leur style de jeu, quelle que soit leur histoire.
Nous en avons trouvé un. Si la Amsel Suite était un grimoire, Modi Case serait un sac sans fond. Nous stockons les informations de votre univers, les détails de votre campagne, les notes et théories des joueurs, ainsi que les sons qui font résonner tout cela, et Modi Case stocke vos figurines, vos bibelots, vos dés, vos cartes, vos livres, votre ordinateur portable, vos jetons, vos marqueurs et bien plus encore.
Si vous jouez également à des jeux de société, à des wargames ou à des jeux de cartes à collectionner, vous pouvez également utiliser leur système pour ranger tout ce qui va avec. Nous choisissons, avec notre audace habituelle en termes de conjectures, de partir du principe que cela concerne effectivement certains d’entre vous.
Un détail important : il faut disposer d’une imprimante 3D pour imprimer leur système. C’est ce qui le rend si modulaire. Mais, soyons honnêtes, si vous ne possédez pas d’imprimante 3D, est-ce que vous ne cherchiez pas une bonne excuse pour vous en procurer une ? La voici. C'est pour transporter vos jeux. Pour protéger tout ce matériel acquis à prix d’or. Un investissement, donc, judicieux, plein de sagesse et de bon sens.
Alternativement, il existe probablement des options pour externaliser le tout. Certaines entreprises proposent des services d’impression 3D. Nous n’en savons pas plus, et nous sommes actuellement très occupés à nous renseigner sur divers modèles d’imprimante 3D, pour des raisons professionnelles. Nous vous laissons donc vous renseigner par vous-mêmes sur les alternatives existantes.
Quoi qu'il en soit : soutenez Modi Case ! Ils lancent bientôt leur campagne, à peu près au même moment que nous. Ce sont des gens sympas à la tête d'une entreprise sympa, avec une offre qui ne nécessite pas d'abonnement. Et on sent vraiment à quel point ils sont passionnés. Nous les avons rencontrés, et ça saute aux yeux.
Nous espérons que cette annonce vous aura donné envie d'être déjà en mai.
À très bientôt,
— L'équipe Amsel
PROJECT UPDATE
Project Update: A Question about Players
Today, we wish to ask you a question about Scry, your players, and what you care about the most.
In Scry, you’ll have access to a lot of ways to connect with your players, and keep them engaged with the story.
We plan to implement many features for this, and we were curious to know which one you were most looking forward to.
And to wrap up with an open-ended question, what do you think will change for your players when you start using Scry?

Project Update: A Question about Themes
Today, we wish to ask you a question about music, themes, and what intrigues you most.
In Harp, you’ll have access to a wide range of music compositions, organized into themed albums. Each one helps you craft the perfect atmosphere for your sessions.
All of our albums will contain hours of music, thanks to controlled randomness and the ability to change the emotional nuance of the album based on the needs of the story.
We plan to have albums for very different types of stories. Which one intrigues you the most? Pick your style below:
