Patience. :)

Jeff delivered the final piece of art last night. Ian (our layout guy) is dropping the last couple of pieces in, replacing the page XX references with actual page numbers, fixing final typos and such that we've caught.

We're having a staff meeting as I type this, where we'll probably set the official release date. As soon as I can share, I will.

Any chance for a one week proof reading for backers before printing?

Not at this point. We had the proof available for a couple of weeks and were collecting typos, errors, and the like during that time. We also want to make sure we're able to get the book printed, bound, and delivered in time to have copies at GenCon in early August. (Less than two months! Aaagh!)

Any errors or corrections will go up as errata.

In related news, the PDF is live on the web store. We'll be offering a print+PDF bundle, but it won't be live on the store until the books are actually produced. If you're a Kickstarter backer, you should have received your coupon code in an update sent out this morning.

Can you give coupons for the print copy to people who buy the pdf before the bundle is available? Asking for a friend.

So if I understand correctly: They want both PDF & Print, but don't want to wait for the bundle to get the PDF, but we provide a coupon off stand-alone print to bring the total PDF+Print cost to the same as what the bundle will be?

I'll ask. I don't really handle the store, so I couldn't say how they might want to handle it. It might be easier to make the bundle available now, with the understanding that the book is at the printer and delivery of the physical product would be in a couple of months (once its at the warehouse).

Just got the word from the boss that we'll put the bundle up in the store with a note indicating the physical book will ship when it gets in.

It won't be up until later (maybe this evening), but that's the plan.

Edit: The bundle won't be live until tomorrow. I'll post an update when it goes live.

Andrew / store admin here. The Companion bundle is up on the fasagames.com store. You'll be able to download the PDF immediately. The softcover will ship either right before or right after GenCon, depending on when it arrives at the distributor from the printer and how busy the distributor is with pre-GenCon work.

Yeah. Just because of how things ended up going, it's done and rather than wait on Elven Nations, we flipped them around in the production pipeline.
