Greetings, Mammoths!
We are hard at work editing and rewriting some sections of the book before it goes into final proofing. Working on story continuity, fleshing out NPCs, location and working on an epic loot table generator! (Will be revealed in the next update).
In this update:
Deadline to fill surveys is 29th of February 2024.
WIP of Dice layout, Magic Item & Character Cards and a few minis.
BACKERKIT
150 of you have yet to confirm your backer kit survey!
Note - Even if you have nothing to add, or have only digital files. We would appreciate it if you confirm the order anyway, so we know that your order is correct.
Confirm Address, Upgrade or Add-ons
At the beginning of January, we dispatched a survey link for you to confirm your shipping address, as well as to offer you the opportunity to upgrade your pledge or select add-ons items you'd like.
Tax & Shipping are charged at a later date 🦺
The final Tax & shipping costs will be charged once we have made all the prototypes and we know how much the product weighs and we know your address, so please hang on tight until we get those final numbers down.
Where is my survey link? If you can’t find it in your Kickstarter email - Please check your spam folder. If you can't find it there, reach out to us with (1) your name (2) pledge number, at our email provided above.
Where are my digital Files? You can track the progress on this Production Sheet. Our PDFs are not ready yet, but the STLs have been sent via MyMiniFactory already. Upgrades to add-ons with STL rewards will be sent after the BackerKit closes around early March.
Work In Progress
Character cards WIP.
Dice design was finalized and sent to tooling and prototype production.
Magic Items cards WIP, these are just a part of the whole lot. Crafting over 50 magic items is a lot of downtime activity.
Two minis from the second batch of prototyping, looking great!
Your enthusiasm and support fuel our journey, and we're thrilled to be on this adventure with you. As always, thank you for being such an integral part of the Mammoth family!
Rampage on!

The Dragon Trappers Lodge are a wonderful job in releasing two (!) STL collections a month - one designed for use in fantasy roleplaying adventures, and one for wargaming, mass battle tabletop games - though you can use the models in any way you want. they tackle staple RPG monsters with a unique take (some give us nightmares), go have a look at their Patreon and Tribes.
