Full Map of Shintiara in High Resolution - now available

Hi Friends!

As you probably already know, I am very proud about the Map of Shintiara: it has been the first piece of Shintiara I drafted more than 20 years ago!

Waiting for the english books and Map (...) the Shintiara's team decided to provide all the backers with a High Resolution version of the Map. 

Two wonderful artists elaborated this artwork: Emanuele Galletto and our art director Simone "Nork" Denti. 

Now, if you're a backer, please pay attention to a Backerkit email in the next hours! The English version will be ready soon also.

Otherwise the Map and the Character Sheet are also available, with registration, in the Download section of our website.

Cheers,

Giovanni

Delivery of English Manuals
over 6 years ago – Wed, Aug 09, 2017 at 11:41:15 PM

Hi friends!

All the Italian books has been delivered now and we're are in the middle of the layout process for the English version.

In Italy everything preceded quite well, people seems to love the game and we found an important distributor for Shintiara (Wyrd, the same Italian distributor of important games such as Numenera, The Strange, etc).

As you saw in the video in the last update, we had two mothertongue and expert friends (Giuseppe and John) working on it as translator and editor and they finished a month ago to translate and edit the text, but we widely underestimated the time needed to adapt the text to the layout and to re-design maps etc.

For us is quite difficult also to decide how many books to print, and we're taking a lot of decisions during this week. So, again, be patient with us. We're working to send you the PDF in September and to send the books before October.

On top of it we're ending the layout of the Italian version of the "Evil Seeds from a Future Past" adventure. It will end up to be a 60-70 pages full-colored product and we're sure you'll love it (see the attached artwork below!).

Keep on doing our best, again thank you all! Giovanni

Hi friends!

Yes, we really want to do everything at our best. Sometimes this takes longer than expected and now we're late... but hopefully it will not take too long to receive your pledges.

Now, ITALIAN manuals will be shipped on Monday. That's a promise.

About the ENGLISH version, we just finished the translation and professional editing. The PDF will be ready in a month or so. The Manuals a month later so probably on July.

The adventure unblocked ("Wicked seeds from a future past") has been playtested and it looks very funny! I will post an update later about it. You can now have a look to some beautiful Simone's work in-progress-artwork.

We will eventually organize multiple shipping (if we don't have everything ready at the same time) in order to deliver what you need to play as soon as possible and pay for it, so no extra cost will be charged to anyone of you, obviously. We're working hard, guys, and you'll be happy with our game! We apologize for the short delay and again thank you for your help!!!
