Greetings from the Dens!
We got the first hard proof back today on The Underworld. It looks good and they are offering no print delays. We have already sent the other two (appendices and wilderness) and will approve them for proofing in the morning (the 10th) and get these suckers rolling. We will also approve Underworld for actual printing. The maps are up next. There are like 20 of them, but we have their printing problem handled (he said, promptly jinxing himself)..
Thank you all!
Follow us on twitter! And come join us at 4:30 central on Twitch!

Greetings from the Dens,
Okay. So to catch you all up. Last week I reached out to Ernie Gygax to send me the funds to cover printing costs for these final three books (Wilderness, Dungeon, Appendices). He promptly did so and I received those funds today. There are still issues with the printers, though I think we have solved them.
As you know we reached out to our hardback printer last month and they gave us a six month turn around. That seemed rather long, so I've been searching for a solution. We've found another printer that is "promising" a month turnaround, which I like much much better. So we are going to begin uploading files tomorrow and get this started at last. With a little luck it will go off smoothly and we'll see these books land in June. When they land we'll ship them from TLG mail room (we can handle a few hundred a day easily) and get them to you.
That is the plan. I am a little dubious on this turnaround time as I know paper is in such short supply everywhere, but we've managed to keep TLG supplied, so surely other printers have managed it as well. We'll know by week's end hopefully if they are good for it.
So the good lord willing and the creek don't rise, this long ordeal will soon end.
IN the meantime, please check out our ongoing 5th Edition Kickstarter The Undying War and even if you don't play that game, do TLG a favor and spread the word!
Thank you all!
