Weekly Newsletter

For November 29 - December 5

Hello! It’s an exciting week, so let’s get into it….

Patreon Release

Classes 1 & 2 is now out on Patreon. This release adds the Iéreas and Magos Classes to the Frenok and Thanator. Also, BLEND20 is becoming a bit more firm in its approach and I’ve worked to resolve some inconsistencies in language that were arising from it being a seat-of-the-pants adaption of both target systems.

I’m still aiming for final 5e and Pathfinder 2e releases alongside a BLEND20 version, so there will be room for any further refinements, and I’ve got experts in both systems to take a look at things before we reach the final version of anything.

But that’s a while aways in any case, so here’s a few sneak peeks at the current release:

I hope that’s enough to get folks excited, and for the project to continue to grow.

Map Experiments

I mentioned last week that I would be trying out ways to make maps faster. I spent a little bit of time exploring Affinity Designer, and produced this:

It’s just a little experiment for one of the other maps, detailing the farms of Agrak for The Broken World but I’m reasonably happy with it as a test-of-concept sort of thing. There’s a lot more to do before it’s ready for primetime, but I think I might be able to get there.

Signoff

That’s it for the week – a big release on Patreon and hopefully some more progress on the free setting guide for the next few days. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you have questions or suggestions for feedback on the project.

Thank you,

Jacob
