Initial Gothic Tavern Set has been print tested, and is Distro'd!
over 1 year ago – Mon, Aug 22, 2022 at 02:58:33 AM

The initial Gothic Taverns set is here, and in your inboxes (likely also a few Junk filters). 

You should find a email from DriveThruRPG, with the redemption link in your emails. 

The First Stretch goal set - Roof Components with Railings, is also included. In total, in the zip files on DTRPG it's over over 440 files of components, miniatures, etc.!!!

I'd hoped to distro by the beginning of the month, but encountered a error on the roof components that was resulting in a roughly 50% failure rate. That has been resolved :-)

I know I get a bit silent, and apologize on that- but will try to do better moving forward. 

For now, please check out the initial distro, and I'll setup a QA update at the end of the week after you all have a chance to look things over. 

Please note, I'm also up for suggestions in regards to the naming scheme; it's a bit better then my working naming scheme, but I realize it could definitely be better. 

Happy Printing!!

Backerkit, Addon and Gothic Catalog/Dragons Hoard news!
almost 2 years ago – Tue, Jun 07, 2022 at 04:59:46 PM

Backerkit is just about ready to start the review process! This means is should open up within the next week for any sort of add-ons, late backers, etc! 

All 'Gothic Catalog", "Dragons Hoard" and add-on purchasing backers should now have emails from DriveThruRPG in their folders!  

If you can't find it, or the overzealous guardians of your inboxes have shunted it to unknown realms- you can check: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/account_notification_inbox.php

for any account links you may be missing :-) 

If you *don't* already have a DriveThruRPG account, set one up & let me know and I can look up your personal redemption keys if the link doesn't then reflect it :-) 

Print testing should start soon, and I'll get 'tested/verified' files uploading to Backerkit as that progresses :-)

Thank you all again, and may the printing for those who picked up addons or the large bundles commence! 

~Chris, Dragon Workshop

Thank you all!!

We want to thank you all deeply for all of your epic support in making our second Kickstarter come to life!!

• In the final hours- you all unlocked the modular stables! 

When Kickstarter finishes processing payments, and we get finalized information, we'll begin sending out the Back Catalog content to those of you that pledged for those tiers, and opening up Backerkit for further addons and late pledge options.

We'll be posting updates on the stretch goal contents as they're fleshed out, and as the core set passes testing, we'll begin distributing it and the stretch goals as they are completed.

Again, thank you all for your incredible support, and we can't wait to see your builds come to life!

~Chris

Final Day!
almost 2 years ago – Sat, May 21, 2022 at 03:35:27 AM

It's been an awesome journey so far, and as we enter the final day of the Kickstarter, I just wanted to first say- thank you all for your support on & off Kickstarter. 

I'll be sharing regular updates with all of you as the stretch goal assets are finished, here, on the Discord, and Facebook page.  I look forward to getting your feedback on them as they progress.

Backerkit pledge manager invites will go out as soon as it's setup following the Kickstarter, and once your  choices are finalized, back catalog content will be distributed via our friends at DriveThruRPG.

We had an unlock!

We've unlocked the Small House Roof Styles! Turn Gothic Taverns into a Gothic Village!  For all Gothic Tavern and higher backers. 

What this will include is:

•  Multiple styles of modular roof components in short, medium and tall peaks for typical 'house' or small to medium shop sized buildings in all of the unlocked roofing type options (Dutch tiled, wood shingle, small crenellated) as well as small-build specific thatched roofing. 
• a new window type as a build option for the various wall types unlocked 
• covered side areas for the buildings for wood storage or other uses, and porches
• front awning / stoop/ portico options (a covered area above the door)
• several styles of chimney as options on the roof components
• 2 new exterior doors: a large carriage house door, and a standard sized exterior door
• roofline dormer options (those little peaked spots on roofs that sometimes have small decorative windows)

The following is a very rough draft 3d sketch or 'blocking out' preview for preliminary scaling and is to help give an idea of some of the concepts.  It's how I start out any project, from wagons to castles.
