April 2021 Update
almost 3 years ago – Thu, Apr 29, 2021 at 12:31:49 PM

Hello Chroniclers,

A quick update at the end of the month to keep everything up to date. I do get to move one more reward from Pending to Delivered this month, so some progress!

LAST CALL FOR HARDCOVER ISSUES

Before we go over our reward list, I just wanna touch base one final time to see if there are any final issues with the hardcover version of Contagion Chronicle

If you haven't received yours, or if you received one of the few copies that was misprinted, please let me know as soon as possible.

USPS only maintains tracking information for 6 months, after which they remove the information and eventually re-use the tracking numbers. I think FedEx and international couriers may keep the info for about 3 months beyond that, but once the info is cleared out, I'll only be able to assume that all is well and everything has delivered. So, this really is our last opportunity to sort out any issues.

TO CONTACT JAMES

  • Via E-Mail: Onyx.Kickstarter [at] gmail.com
  • Via Kickstarter: Click Richard Thomas under the "Created By" heading on the main page, and then press the "Contact Me" button - the message will come to me!
  • Via BackerKit: Click "Need Help?" from your page, and then fill in the Contact Us form. BackerKit will pass your message along to me.

Reward Distribution - Digital Wallpaper
about 3 years ago – Mon, Apr 19, 2021 at 09:11:57 AM

Hello Chroniclers,

It's not quite time for our month end update yet, but I didn't want to wait to sneak out this one small reward before we get to our list next week.

DIGITAL WALLPAPER

Are you ready to make your computer even darker? It's time to distribute one of our Stretch Goals! It's been a long time coming, but we're ready to send out the Digital Wallpaper reward now!

Your link to claim your Chronicles of Darkness: Contagion Chronicle Digital Wallpaper will be sent out by our BackerKit pledge manager over the next day. Since we are using our partners at DriveThruRPG as the host for this, you will need to set up a DriveThru account if you don't have one already. If you encounter any problems with downloading your rewards, please contact DTRPG's customer service to resolve the matter, they've always been top-rated for customer service. http://www.drivethrurpg.com/contact_us.php

The easiest way to see if you've got digital downloads available is to login to your backerkit account: https://contagion-chronicle.backerkit.com/backer/digital_rewards and it'll show anything available. Your backerkit account should also confirm all rewards that you should expect from your reward tier selected.

If you need to review your information or pledge status, you can return to your survey by clicking the link in your survey email or requesting your survey link under "Lost your survey?" on our BackerKit project page at https://contagion-chronicle.backerkit.com

If you used your Facebook credentials to log in to your Kickstarter account, the BackerKit survey is sent to the email address you use for your Facebook account. If you have another email address that you prefer to use, please contact support at  https://contagion-chronicle.backerkit.com/faq

I'll be back next week with our regular Month End update, and I'm looking forward to moving one item from our Pending to Delivered list!

If you've got any outstanding issues - if you're still waiting for your shipment or have an issue with your book - please contact me and I'll try to get it sorted.

FINAL WEEK ON KICKSTARTER

Final Week on Kickstarter! Heed the Call to Adventure!

March 2021 Update
about 3 years ago – Tue, Mar 30, 2021 at 09:32:26 PM

Hello Kickstarter Backers,

A quick month end update for March, which is really more of a preview of April. Let's jump in...

My jumping outfit

JUMP IN TO APRIL

Jumpstart Month on Onyx Path's Twitch channel

This April is Jumpstart month for Onyx Path media! They're running one of every Jumpstart they can for their games, introducing them to new players and putting them in the hands of GMs skilled at some games, but new to these ones! They would love it if you checked some of these out, to maybe get acquainted for the first time with some of these Onyx Path games! Check out the schedule and tune in!

For anyone new to Onyx Path's channel, you can find them running and playing games over on twitch.tv/theonyxpath pretty much every day of the week!

One of the Jumpstart adventures that's on that schedule... April 4, baby! ... is Time Is Come Round, a brand new Scenario designed to introduce a group to the Contagion Chronicle.

Now available in advance PDF from DriveThruRPG: Time is Come Round: The Contagion Chronicle Jumpstart for Chronicles of Darkness: Contagion Chronicle!

The world suffers from illness. It shivers and shudders as the Contagion takes hold. In Houston, Texas, a woman has gone missing and you’re the ones to find and rescue her. But all is not what it seems. Prepare to draw back the curtains and peek backstage.

Welcome to the Chronicles of Darkness. A world like our own, but uglier, more brutal — infinitely more dangerous. This world can’t survive long against its disease. Perhaps you can provide a cure.

Time is Come Round includes:

  • Rules for playing mortals caught in the supernatural webs of the Chronicles of Darkness.
  • A complete adventure for you to play right out of the book, with four full, pre-generated characters.
  • A preview of rules from the Chronicles of Darkness 2nd Edition core rulebook.

It'll be fun to watch others discovering the Contagion as we have!

February 2021 Update
about 3 years ago – Thu, Feb 25, 2021 at 02:28:30 PM

Hello Kickstarter Backers!

After shipping out all of our hardcover rewards and digging into the book last month, this month's update will seem pretty tame by comparison. At this point, 99.9% of us have our books well in hand. I've still got a few orders that are doing a tour around the world, but otherwise everything has delivered.

If you need to check your tracking <This Update> includes instructions on how to retrieve that information from BackerKit.

2021 Chronicle.

Otherwise, work continues on our remaining Stretch Goal projects. Before we review our list, though, let's take a break with this Contagion Chronicle one-shot Actual Play!

CURRENTLY CROWDFUNDING...

Now on Indiegogo!

M20: Victorian Age provides advice and material for running your Mage: The Ascension 20th Anniversary Edition chronicles amid the tumult of the Victorian era, as the Order of Reason rises to power and the Traditions falter.

Within this book you will also find a details of the state of the great magickal powers in this era: the Order of Reason, preparing for their metamorphosis into the Technocratic Union and riding upon the great beast of Empire; the Council of Nine, now merely eight, caught in infighting and looking for a new peer; and the Crafts, the manifold practices of magick across the world, who fight to save their peoples from conquest and exploitation.

In addition, Victorian Mage includes an examination of life as a magus in the stratified society of Imperial Britain and the wider empire; rules reflecting the difference in how magick works during this age, when the Consensus of the Technocracy has yet to enfold the globe; and a gazetteer of the Victorian world, touching on cultures and conflicts across the globe as empires struggle for dominance and the masses struggle simply to survive.

As with everything in the world of Mage: The Ascension, reality is shifting and you can't expect things to be as they always have been. We're running this Victorian Mage crowdfunding campaign a little differently. Check out Onyx Path's announcement post for more details, and I hope to see you there!
