Update on Tonisborg Dungeon
about 4 years ago – Fri, Feb 14, 2020 at 01:28:46 AM

Due to recent events that have come to our attention, there will be changes in the Tonisborg Dungeon book.

We had initially reached out to Bob Bledsaw and Judges Guild to partner on the book via artwork and branding. At the time, we wanted to ally ourselves with a company and artist that would help boost visibility to Blackmoor fans. We also felt the book should be in the same category as Dave Arneson's First Fantasy Campaign, which was produced by Judges Guild way back in 1977. However, due to a series of entirely unacceptable comments made by Bob Bledsaw Jr. and Bob Bledsaw III on social media, we can't continue a business relationship with the Bledsaw family or Judges Guild. 

We are still very much dedicated to producing the Tonisborg Dungeon book. The manuscript is full of fun OSR material for new and old referees, and the dungeon itself deserves to be in print for everyone to enjoy. To this end, we will be dropping the Judges Guild name from the publication and replace the Bledsaw artwork with works by other artists before going to press.

Additionally, we are aware that we've delayed delivery on your Kickstarter rewards way too long. On our end, it's been an issue of trying to cut shipping costs and waiting with crossed fingers for everything made by our vendors to arrive. We're just going to cut to the chase today and ship what we have (DVD's, Blu rays, T-shirts, and Dice Bags).

We want to hear from you, our backers, on how you feel about the changes to the Tonisborg book. Please respond here, or send us a message privately.

Thank you,

The Secrets of Blackmoor Team

It's Time

We were holding out for our vendors to provide everything we needed so as to be able to ship everything at once. It's caused a huge delay and we've decide to go ahead and ship.

We will pack up and ship what we have at this point.

Chris and I will be meeting tomorrow to do the actual shipping.

We're really sorry about the delays.

Goodies are being manufactured...

We've been wanting to do a final post that says: Everything has been shipped!

Yet, a lot of little details crop up that we did not plan on, and yes we are getting closer.

Here is the official status:

1. Dice bags are sitting in a big box waiting to be shipped

2. DVD's are sitting in 20 boxes waiting to be shipped

3. Blu Ray discs are somewhere in Postal Space on their way to us

4. T-shirts are also in Postal Space on their way to us

5. Posters will now be a double sided 2 page poster set. You'll get two 11x17 posters.

6. Tonisborg Dungeon is moving along and will be shipped separately from all other gifts.

If you look closely you can see the castle logo in a red/brown tone.

And of course you also get the Bonus DVD. A sample is up on youtube:

We are here and working, but if you have questions or problems relating to the roll out of this KickStarter project, we do try to respond promptly.

Here it is - A look at both the Movie and Bonus Footage DVD's

Here's a look at both the Movie and Bonus Footage DVD/Blu-rays. This demo movie looks a little "stuttery"  being that it's from a screengrab of the disc authoring software. We need a few small corrections to the button order (how the navigation flows) and we'll be sending this off to be replicated. We hope you enjoy this preview!

Thanks for your patience! We greatly appreciate your support!
