almost 4 years ago – Thu, Jul 16, 2020 at 01:02:13 AM

Hey everybody, 

it's been a while since the last update, and we've been working really hard to keep things together in these difficult times. Today we are proud to tell you that the project is on schedule and everything is getting together!

Familiae & Species Preview

We just finished the layout editing for the Italian version of the Familiae & Species chapter, we're moving to the English one (already translated and edited) and we're aiming to release the preview to our backers by the weekend.

Here you have some screenshots of the final layout!

Adventures Book Cover by Bastien Lecouffe Deharme

We realized that we never showed you officially the amazing cover that Bastien Lecouffe Deharme illustrated for the Adventure Book!

You can find more of his art here: https://www.artstation.com/deharme

GM Screen WIP Preview

Antonio De Luca is now working on the Game Master Screen Illustration. Here you have a sneak peek!

Project Progress Update

The Italian texts and the game design are nearly finished, we are just missing some stat-blocks and few lore descriptions. We are right now working on the layout editing of the Italian edition.

The English translation is going section by section, and as soon as an Italian section is ready, we start with the translation and then move to the editing. The English translation and editing are near to 30% and we're already working on the layout editing of the English edition.

Arkhane Asylum Publishing (https://www.arkhane-asylum.fr/) is working on the French edition of Historia. The Lorebook is nearly finished, then they'll move to the translation of the Corebook and Adventure Book, as soon as the English sections will be ready.

Thank you for your love and support,

Historia Lorebook PDF release
about 4 years ago – Wed, Apr 08, 2020 at 11:37:18 PM

Hello there,

here we are with the very first Historia release, the Lorebook: Historia, Of Magus and Brigands, Cowards and Heroes. We've sent the Drivethru file on the email linked to your Kickstarter/BackerKit account! 

We're presenting you the Historia's origin: a narrative introduction to the world of Vesteria and its most prominent figures, right from Carolino the Wise's pen, telling us about Magus, Brigands, Cowards, and Heroes.

For now, we only have the English and Italian versions available, because our French partner is closed due to COVID-19. We're sorry for the inconvenience and we'll try to solve these issues as soon as possible.

Enjoy! And thank you for your support!

Please stay safe at home!
