I have been keeping track of this, and so has DriveThruRPG. They recently issued an open letter on this subject. Here is the relevant part, at least with regard to this project:
Print on Demand Books + Cards
We strive to work with Lightning Source, our print-on-demand book partner, to keep prices affordable. While we did recently implement a price increase, our print books remain competitively priced and because printing takes place in the US, UK, and Australia, cost increases due to tariffs can be avoided. The price increases to our print-on-demand books are not tied to these tariffs.
I did pick fulfilment via DriveThruRPG specifically because they could handle in-country fulfilment outside the United States, so there’s that. There’s a broad consensus that tariffs won’t be hitting digital products, so I’m not worrying about that until I’m told I have to. As for the physical novel add-ons: they’re limited to American backers anyway because of postage issues. Besides, I’ve already ordered the books.
Bottom line is: the tariffs are not currently a problem that will affect this project. I will let you know if that changes.
