Alpha PDF near the finish line

Alpha PDF

We've got art, feedback and a lot of editing done.  We are targeting the end of next week (YAY!) to get the Alpha PDF out. We plan for feedback at this stage and will incorporate feedback as we get it. 

Fully Armored Update
about 2 years ago – Wed, Feb 16, 2022 at 10:14:57 AM

Surveys

93% of the BackerKit surveys have been completed. If you have not completed yours, please complete it as soon as you can. We’d really appreciate it.


Editing

The book is almost finished with the second editing pass, and the first few chapters have been distributed to several backers who are assisting us with editing the book.  Additional chapters will be going out to backer-editors soon.  Once we get all the edits completed, we’ll have a better idea on when the alpha version of the PDF will go out to backers.


Artwork

Artwork continues to be worked on for the book. In addition to Kiki Kurnia’s amazing pieces, we’ve also got a new piece from Battlelord’s favorite Admira Wijaya (See below), and new artist, Patricia Pria.


Other Projects – “Savage Battlelords”

We continue to develop the Battlelords of the 23rdCentury setting for the Savage Worlds game system. “Savage Battlelords,” as we like to call it, will be produced side by side with classic 7th edition Battlelords. We will be kickstarting Savage Battlelords late in the first quarter of 2022. We will be releasing a Quick Start Rules PDF soon. If you’ve ever wanted a deck of Battlelords playing cards, you might want to keep an eye out for this Kickstarter.


Gen Con 2022

We will be exhibitors at Gen Con 2022 in Indy. We will be running over 25 Battlelords events, including two Savage Battlelords events. If you’re going to be attending Gen Con let us know. If you’re interested in running some Battlelords events for us, please contact us. Everyone who attends at Battlelords game at the con gets Battlelords swag, and Battlelords GM get even more swag!
