Update - 28/10/2024

Hello, and welcome to another weekly update! I hope you had a nice weekend. As you saw, I've kept myself busy, and you now have access to parts of both Across a Thousand Hollow Vaults and Sacrifice 2e. Sacrifice is still clearly very much WIP, but I really wanted to show you how it's going to look like, and how the new skill system works. My priority is ATHV, though, so that's what I'm working on most of the time.

Last week was spent mostly making packages and wrapping up the layout for ATHV, but I did have a bit of time to set up the whole Book of Masteries for Ker Nethalas, and now that it's all structured I am able to start asking José Antonio for art, since it's usually what takes the longest. I'm hoping I'll be able to release it during Q1 2025. I've also done great progress getting Carnage & Aether into publishing shape thanks to the editing of KDLynch. It's going to be really tight, once it's out!

I also got the new Blackoath logo, as you all saw, and have started adding it to all the upcoming releases. I think it's quite cool, let's hope it's recognizable and I don't need to change it again any time soon!

This week I will continue working on ATHV, I need to implement all the GM emulation tools before I can move on to the Exploring the Corescape chapter. And of course, I'll still be dealing with packages, because I need to get through all the Ker Nethalas preorders. I should be finally be done next week, though!

I'm considering sharing the new ATHV rules chapter with the Discord folks, to see what they think about the changes to combat. Maybe that way they can start playing ATDW with the new rules and see how it goes. Like I said before, the changes aren't really drastic and the game should play basically the same, just faster and a bit easier. The only big change is probably how Stamina works, but that part is very easy to simply ignore for when you're playing ATDW.

So that's it for this week, I hope you all have a great one!
