The release of the rules is upon us. Tomorrow, at around 1:00 PM EST, we will release the Alpha rules. Inside, it will contain the rules for running the game, creating characters, and purchasing equipment. The Alpha will include the rules for the Character Paths of the Gunslinger, the Learned, the Frontiersman, the Faithful, and the Spellbinder. We are still working on the Shaman, and it needs more time in the oven. I apologize for the delay, as I know some of you were excited to see what we did with the path.
All Paths will have Talents up to Tier 3 for this initial release. Next month, we will release The Shaman and Talents up to Tier 6 for all the Paths. Additionally, we will release refined rules for diseases and infections, as well as a few other status ailments and some other surprises.
Lastly, the Entity Codex, our monster manual or bestiary, will be released next Friday. For the Alpha, we are keeping the Codex and Core Rules separate so that we can adjust entities without having everyone download a single large file each time.
Thank you for being with us during this part of what we hope to be a long Journey. Now, back to work as we continue development and preparation for both GenCon 2025, where we will be in the First Exposure Playtest Hall from 8 AM to 2 PM on Friday and Saturday and from 8 AM to noon on Sunday, and for Kickstarter.
Until next time, Happy Gaming!
