State of GTG - August 2018

Wow! Gen Con just happened! That is such an incredibly busy and work intensive show. This year we all went *into* the show exhausted after shipping around 4000 OblivAon parcels, but that can't be helped. We also received a ton of other stuff. Here's a look at some of the things we did in the past month:

  • Maggie and Chris Kirkman attended Dice Tower Con.
  • Christopher attended Con in the Castle and Geekly Con.
  • We all went to Gen Con.
  • Jenn and the graphic design department designed and printed a ton of things for Gen Con.
  • Chris Burton, Twuana, and SaRae assembled a ton of prototype games.
  • Jenn, Sarah, SaRae, and Maggie made a ton of decorations for the Gen Con party on Thursday night.
  • Trevor moved to St. Louis and started full time!
  • We finished the first season of Sentinel Comics LIVE on Twitch.
  • Jodie, Matt, and the warehouse team moved 150% of the maximum capacity of our warehouse through our warehouse while it was already 120% full.
  • Matt worked to improve Gen Con organization and setup/teardown.
  • Alex and I standardized our terms for warehousing and fulfillment for other publishers.
  • Craig got a new kilt.

Here is the status of all of our works in progress. There are a ton of changes!

Is "Sentinels Comic RPG: Stolen Legacy" the starter kit, or something else?

Your store doesn't have it by that name, at least.

It is something else! It is a new RPG adventure that we sold at Gen Con and which will be on our web store by the end of the week (along with more Spirit Island promo spirits)!

I like how the list is all "HERE ARE THESE AMAZING BUSINESS THINGS OUR PEOPLE DID FOR BUSINESS" and then it ends on the fashion update with Craig. :V

Craig looking more handsome is always serious business, TakeWalker.

If it is the Spirit Island promos they were selling at Gen Con, they are "Serpent Slumbering Beneath the Island" and "Heart of the Wildfire".

Congratulation for Craig, the only one doing something productive whille all the others are just playing RPG, boardgame or Real Life Tetris in the warehouse.

The "Serpent Slumbering Beneath the Island" and "Heart of the Wildfire" promo reprints, plus the Stolen Legacy adventure for the RPG, will both be on the web store soon! In order to let our warehouse catch up from Gen Con, we are going to put those up on Monday.

Hi,

will the Stolen Legacy-Files also be available in an download only version without the physical copy? It would be really nice for players outside the US, because  the shipping costs are extreme (25$).

There were some problems accessing the digital only files for the Starter Kit after purchase. Hopefully these have been fixed for this release.


The space/time continuum was broken when I got here. Honest.
