ENnie Awards and Updates!

Beloved cabal,

The Ennie Awards at GenCon 2017

We are tremendously proud to have been given two nominations in this year's slate of ENnie awards: Best Production Values and Best Writing, both for the Unknown Armies Deluxe Set. The voting is now open and we would, of course, be thrilled to have your vote for UA3 in these two categories. Click on the big logo below to do that!

Production Update

We're still hard at work on Book Four and Book Five, as well as the Campaign Starter Kits. We're hoping to get these into your digital downloads folders before the fall winds come blowing into Saint Paul. The CSKs are going to end up being staggered releases, rather than all at once, because of the need to work on each of them more or less one at a time. We can't wait for you to see all of this great new content.

Cheers,
Cam and the UA Production Team

Tell me have you seen the Yellow Sign?

Beloved cabal,

Here's where we are at with Unknown Armies production!

Book Four and Book Five

These delightful volumes have come a fair way since we shared them with you, in that we've gone through and incorporated a lot of suggested fixes, dealt with some problems, and they're in the final editing stages. I would love to tell you that they're ready to go out this month, but that's not true, so I won't. However, they are still on track for release in the next couple months, so that's something to look forward to.

Campaign Starter Kits

Wow, what a tremendous amount of feedback we got on these things. So much so that, together with a full-on Stolze developer pass, I've been busily going through each of the seven kits with an eye to making them even more helpful and even more fun. Rather than release them all at once, we'll stagger their release out as they are completed, but I foresee these being distributed to you all before the year is out.

Statosphere

Have you seen what's already available at the Statosphere? There's a lot of decidedly messed-up content being posted and we're hoping it continues to grow! If you're still not sure about contributing to the Statosphere, take a look and see what others have done, For only a few dollars, some of these products are packed with ideas and horrors to inspire and delight.

The Yellow King RPG Kickstarter

Speaking of inspired horror...

As a fan of sophisticated, disturbing horror RPGs packaged in beautiful slipcases that double as GM screens (hmmm…) we thought you might want to hear about the latest from friend-of-Atlas Robin D. Laws.

The campaign for The Yellow King Roleplaying Game has already blasted through four realities' worth of stretch goals. Swoop in and reap the benefits!

Until next time....

Stay awake. Go to sleep. Sow the wind. Reap the whirlwind.

The Statosphere has been Opened!

Beloved, the rituals are finally complete.

Begun during the Kickstarter campaign with a backer stretch goal, we are thrilled to announce that the partnership with OneBookShelf to launch a creator community for third-party Unknown Armies content is now actualized.

To explore this new venture and see what's already available, simply follow this link. We've recruited two adepts already for the opening, Tim Dedopulos and WJ MacGuffin, and you can see their first efforts on the site. I hope you consider adding these to your collection and giving this new publishing opportunity a go for yourself!

All the best,
--Cam and the UA3 production crew

Termination Shock Kickstarter!

Beloved cabal,

Fans of UA co-designer Greg Stolze may already be aware of his new Kickstarter, Termination Shock, but if not and you're a fan of Greg's succinct and singularly solid take on RPGs then you should consider supporting this one.

Termination Shock is a science fiction RPG. For more, visit the Kickstarter campaign page here and let Greg know you're in!

Cheers,
Cam and the Unknown Armies production team

Hey... where are my dice?
almost 7 years ago – Sun, May 21, 2017 at 12:45:48 PM

Are you somebody who backed the Kickstarter at a pledge level that came with dice?

Are you wondering where your dice are?

Believe it or not, we sent all of the dice out last year! Yes, once the dice arrived near the end of 2016 our doughty warehouse and shipping manager Travis Winter shipped out all of the dice worldwide to those folks whose pledges included dice or who added dice as an add-on.

If you believe you ordered dice but never got them, please drop Travis a line at travis AT atlas-games DOT com. He can check his shipping records and resolve the problem.

Cheers,
Cam and the UA3 Production Team
