Annnnnd the Fermi Resolution Worldbook Backerkit is in the can.

A highly respectable showing, for me. Second-largest crowdfunding result since I started this; and, the since my biggest one (the one for FROZEN DREAMS) is also my first one, possibly the comparison is unfair. Thank you for everyone who backed, and don’t forget that our cross-collaborator Lead & Chrome still has a few hours left!

We’ve hit the second Backerkit stretch goal! Also, it all ends tomorrow.

The second stretch goal means that the artist and layout artist both get a little tip. Nothing spectacular, but a little extra thank-you. In the meantime, the Fermi Resolution Worldbook has until tomorrow to hit the following stretch goals:

  • $4,000: Another PDF adventure! This will be available to for all backers at Senior Adventurer and above. This adventure will be set in the current campaign time period. A critical forward base in captured Dominion territory isn’t reporting in. There aren’t enough Alliance troops available to investigate, but that’s why there are Adventurers. There will be maps! (Based on my short story “Job Along the Borderlands.”)
  • $6,000: A third PDF adventure! This will be available to for all backers at Senior Adventurer and above. This adventure will be set in the opening years of the Great War. There has been a mysterious murder in Boston’s fabled underground Antiquity. Who or what is the murderer, what are their plans, and what is to be done about it all? There will be maps! (Based on the yet-to-be-published-in-an-anthology short story “Never Return.”

These are the last days of the Fermi Resolution Worldbook Backerkit!

Less than forty eight hours to go on my tabletop roleplaying game project! The Fermi Resolution Worldbook is useful for both gamers and my fiction readers, as it doubles as a reference for the Fermi Resolution series. Plus, there’s art, maps, and even hints about future stories! I’m not saying you have to get it, but it’ll be useful.

Check it out today!

100 Backers on the Fermi Resolution Worldbook Backerkit! Woot!

That means that all of the backers of the Fermi Resolution Worldbook will get extra maps as part of the art download. At the moment, that specifically means the ‘North America at different times’ maps, but it’ll probably extend to the maps I’ll be commissioning as part of the first stretch goal. I’m still assessing who will be making those; I want to see how the artist who’s doing the maps for the cross-collaboration between me and Lead & Chrome works out first. We’re not on a time crunch, and if I like how she fulfills this project, no reason why I shouldn’t keep that going…

Back the project(s) today!

Reminder: interview tomorrow with Mildra the Monk about the Backerkit.

You’ll be able to tune in here – or whatever they call getting onto Twitch – February 25, 2025, 8 PM Eastern Time. Mildra will be talking to me about The Fermi Resolution Worldbook, which is by the way only 3 backers away from everybody getting extra map art. Check it out, check that out, and you’ll see me tomorrow!

90.6% to the first stretch goal, and watch this space for an announcement next week!

We have two weeks to go on the Fermi Resolution Worldbook Backerkit, and we’re just over $200 away from the first stretch goal! These are the slow days in a crowdfunding project, so I’m asking all of you to spread the word about my project. If you know somebody into post-apocalyptic fantasy tabletop roleplaying, or who just wants a peek into the world of my books, let them know about this project.

And if you haven’t backed yet, feel free.

Says it all, really.

Please back The Fermi Resolution Worldbook on Backerkit!

We are firmly in the dread doldrums of the crowdfunding experience, where the first rush of pledges have ended, and the last wave has yet to come. But now is an excellent time to back the Fermi Resolution Worldbook on Backerkit, because it will make me feel better. I mean, really, why lie about it?
