Hi,
I heard that there are still Trophy Character Creation Cards available. I'd like to buy them, but this seems quite hard in the EU (Germany). Will it be posssible to at them as an add-on to The Between during the survey?
Thanks

Hi everyone! Here are some quick updates on The Between (and a few associated things). First of all, as ever, we want to invite you to join us on the Gauntlet Discord server. Jason regularly shares previews of the work going on behind the scenes, and it's just a terrific place to connect with other people playing these games.
Books
Work on The Between, Shadow Society, and Suns of Another World is proceeding nicely. Jason and the team have brought on a few extra writers to cut down on the amount of work needed to be done on the remaining drafts, as well as additional help for editorial. Getting the drafts ready is the most enjoyable part of the process, but also the most taxing. It's just a lot of heads down work in the writing and editing mines, and play-testing new parts of the game as much as we're able to. As of right now, we're still on track to hit our delivery goals; we'll let you know if anything changes on that front.
Brindlewood Bay & Nephews in Peril Add-Ons
We're still missing some folks' shipping info for Brindlewood Bay and Nephews in Peril add-ons. These are being handled outside of the pledge manager and ready to ship, so please fill out the Google form ASAP.
Pledge Manager and Preorders
The pledge manager (and preorder page) is a bit delayed because we're waiting on some info from our suppliers. We're doing some add-ons (to be revealed later), but we need to get precise prices and shipping details, and January is Chinese new year, which kind of slows things down over there. It should up pretty soon, though.
The Darkened Threshold
Our Carved from Brindlewood podcast The Darkened Threshold is already back in the new year with 3 new episodes, including one that has a glimpse at what's coming in 2025 (including some information about The Between). If you haven't yet had a chance to check the show out, we highly recommend it. Alex and Jason are great talkers, and the show is super helpful for anyone getting into these games. It can be found wherever you get podcasts, or on our website.
New Website
Speaking of our website, it has recently gotten a major refresh. Check it out!
We're going to leave you with some brand-new artwork. Below are The Explorer and The Factotum, as well as the painting of the Hargrave House music room. All of this artwork is WIP—the finals will be in the books.
Hey everyone! We hope you're all having a lovely holiday season. Here are the project updates for December 2024.
Discord Server
As always, we want to start by inviting you to join us on The Gauntlet Discord server. Jason has been sharing regular previews for this new edition of The Between. Come join us to check that stuff out and discuss!
Brindlewood Bay & Nephews in Peril Add-ons
If you added on Brindlewood Bay and/or Nephews in Peril, we need your address, so please fill out the below Google Form if you haven't already done so. We'll then cross-reference with our list of add-on customers from BackerKit. US customers will have their books sent out as soon as we have your address. International customers will have their books in late January (we need to get supply to the international fulfiller) but please go ahead and fill out the form. Please note: you will still have to fill out your pledge manager survey for The Between whenever we send those out (some time in January).Here is the Google form.
Online game rewards
If you pledged at a level that gets you online game sessions from the game creators, be on the lookout for an email from us after the holidays.
The Between, Shadow Society, and Suns of Another World
Progress is moving along nicely on the books. We expect the draft of The Between to be complete and ready for layout by the end of the year. Shadow Society draft should be done by the end of January. We don't yet have an estimate on when the Suns draft will be ready for layout—it will depend on how development goes on Court of Wolves and Blood & Coal—but mid to late February is probably about right.
The Nutcracker is coming!
An exciting announcement for the holidays: The Nutcracker Threat will be added to Shadow Society! The Nutcracker sees Hargrave House on the trail of a serial killer who is emasculating ballet dancers and posing their bodies in grotesque tableaux around the city. You can pick up the original version of The Nutcracker for free on DTRPG.
