Aug '22: Onyx Path Gen Con Panel, Monthly Status Check In
over 1 year ago – Fri, Aug 26, 2022 at 07:20:52 AM

Hello Renegades,

Trying not to deviate from our regular schedule, I'm here with our month end update. Our two remaining rewards - the stretch goal supplements - are both in art direction and in the back-and-forth with artists stage. So, no major news to report at this time, but I'll continue to update as the process moves forward.

I do have one video to share, though it's not Deviant specific. From Gen Con Online earlier in the month, the What's Up with Onyx Path! Panel, starring Dixie Cochran, Eddy Webb, Rich Thomas, and Matthew Dawkins! Watch to learn about Onyx Path announcements covered during the convention!

STRETCH GOAL REWARDS STILL PENDING

As noted, our final rewards are in art direction. I don't have a timeline for the next steps of the process, but I'll keep checking the weekly Onyx Path updates and summarize them for you at the end of each month.

July '22 update: Anniversary Sale, OPPCON Panel, status update
over 1 year ago – Thu, Jul 21, 2022 at 08:31:34 AM

Hello Renegades

It's time for our monthly update! We've got an assortment of things to go over this month!

First up, the Onyx Path 10th Anniversary Sale!

OPP10: CHRONICLES OF DARKNESS SALE

As I noted last month, 2022 is Onyx Path’s tenth anniversary, so they’re celebrating a different game line every month this year! They're having an amazing monthly sale, pricing products at 10% of their normal retail price (that's 90% off!)

July is Chronicles of Darkness month.

This week features:

This sale lasts until July 23, after which they may shift to other CofD deals as the month continues! It's worth checking in to the Onyx Path website on July 24 to see what's next!

Onyx Path Con 2022:Chronicles of Darkness Panel

As you may remember, back in June Onyx Path held their third annual Virtual Gaming Convention. I've got a cool panel to share with you from that weekend.

The Chronicles of Darkness Panel, starring Eric Zawadzki, Renee Ritchie, Jacqueline Bryk, and Joshua Doetsch! Check it out to find out about the current and upcoming releases for the The Chronicles of Darkness!

STRETCH GOAL REWARDS STILL PENDING

June '22: A peek ahead, a review of where we stand
over 1 year ago – Thu, Jun 30, 2022 at 02:19:28 PM

Hello Renegades,

No big news to share yet this month. Our two Stretch Goal supplements are still finishing up development and in active art direction, so only incremental progress there. Before we have our monthly review, I do want to look ahead to something happening in July.

 Onyx Path 10th Anniversary Sale

2022 marks the 10th Anniversary since the launch of Onyx Path Publishing, and they've been celebrating all year with amazing sales! Each month, Onyx Path has chosen a different line from their catalogue and offered related titles on DriveThruRPG at 10% of the normal price - that means 90% off!

July is Chronicles of Darkness month, and you're going to see this amazing 10% deal on different titles over the next 31 days!

They're going to start with Vampire: The Requiem titles, so if you've got any holes in your digital library, check out Onyx Path's website and their listing on DriveThruRPG for more info starting July 1st. I expect them to change the focus to a different Chronicles of Darkness line (and lines) throughout the month, so keep checking back to see what's been added to the list.

ONYX PATH Virtual Gaming Convention

As you may recall, Onyx Path hosted their third annual Online Gaming Convention a few weeks ago. They haven't yet posted the Chronicles of Darkness panel to their Youtube channel, but it'll probably be up there in the next few days. I'll likely share it in our next monthly update as well, just in case you missed it.

REWARDS STILL PENDING

Our Stretch Goal supplements are finishing up in development and in art direction ahead of layout.

May 2022 Update
almost 2 years ago – Wed, May 25, 2022 at 11:36:20 PM

Hello Renegades,

An assortment of bits to go over this month.

ANY WAYWARD BOOKS STILL OUT THERE?

It feels like it's been forever since our books shipped and delivered, doesn't it? I guess it was just two-and-a-half months ago, but it feels like a lifetime. Anyway, as far as I'm aware, everything has delivered. 

TRACKING INFORMATION

If you were set to receive a hardcover copy of Deviant: The Renegades as a kickstarter reward, your book has shipped and likely delivered by now. If you haven't received it yet, please check your tracking and confirm that it's still en route. Sometimes I'll hear from backers that had no idea the book was being held at a local post office or had delivered to their next door neighbor. The courier and delivery companies keep tracking information for about 6 months, so if you've got any issues, please let me know as soon as possible so we can sort them out. See Contacting James below. By, let's say, August we may not have access to full tracking information. At that point, I'm going to assume that everything went fine, so if you have an issue please contact me as soon as possible. 

STRETCH GOAL REWARDS STILL PENDING

Alt text: Our final two rewards are now in Art Direction

Our two companion books are in the art direction phase, so we may get some peeks at artwork once we get to the layout phase. It's incremental progress, bit by bit, but still moving forward.
