This week's update
10 months ago – Tue, Dec 30, 2025 at 12:42:17 PM

Hey all! Just a brief update for the week per Dave:

MekBorg has been in proofing through the holiday, and Dave is meeting with printers today to discuss finalization. Final PDFs for MekBorg should be dropped by the end of this week. 

I'll be getting updates weekly from Dave and passing that on to you as things progress. If you're having Backerkit or access issues, email me at [email protected]. Thanks for being here with us!

Book Proofing Nearly Done. Final Versions A-Coming. Pre-orders Going Live. And Printtting!
11 months ago – Sat, Nov 22, 2025 at 12:19:07 PM

Hey all, 

The subject says it all. The books are nearly proofed and I'll have those dropped soon. Pre-orders will go live next for folks hoping to hop on the train. And then it's off to the printers. Once that's all square, I'll start releasing extra PDFs.

Thanks!

Steel Psalm Final First Pass Dropped. Sending to printers soon.
about 1 year ago – Wed, Oct 29, 2025 at 08:07:13 AM

Hey everyone,

Make sure to check your Backerkits today, as we've dropped Steel Psalm's pre-proof first pass document. This is the final version of it that will got the printers. At this juncture, we're collecting feedback and errors from all of you (I proofed like crazy, but a few extra eyes never hurt, eh?). 

If you catch anything, drop a message with the subject "Steel Psalm Corrections" to [email protected]

With this done, all we have to do now is get it printed. No ETA on that yet (it's a LOT of books), but now that the main content is done, I can start adding to the PDF bomb stretch goal. As some of you may know, I have a handful of projects out there, but most are finishing up or nearly finished up, so that leaves me lots of time to work on some fun new stuff.

And if there's anything else you need, email Aubrey at [email protected], and we can help you get sorted.

I'll check back here in about a week or two for last minute corrections, finish up the final final PDFs, and then it's into the hands of our printer. Having just received 700 books from them for the Can You See Them project, I can attest to their quality.

Thanks, all!

Dave

Steel Psalm nearly finalized; PDF should release this week
about 1 year ago – Mon, Oct 27, 2025 at 06:32:20 AM

Hey friends,

This is just a quick update on progress (for those of you not int he Discord or on Facebook): Steel Psalm's PDF is near completion. Once it's done, I'll drop it on Backerkit for a first pass review from all of you, and then it's off to the printers with both.

No idea how long those will take to print with the state of things in the world and the US, but hopefully not too horribly long. Knocking this out, however, will free me up considerably, allowing me to focus on zines and extra PDFs which you all will receive for free as part of the original stretch goals.

Anyways, thanks for your support. And I look forward to delivering Steel Psalm this week.

As always, if you have any questions or need help with anything, hit is up on the Discord or send an email to [email protected]

Steel Psalm drafted (going with Forbidden Psalm/Last War style)... formatting tomorrow, release this week
about 1 year ago – Mon, Oct 20, 2025 at 11:11:01 AM

Hey all,

Listening to feedback on here and the chat, I knocked out the draft for Steel Psalm using the structure from Last War and Forbidden Psalm. All that's missing are the fluffy bits and tables, which I'm pulling from the original MEK BORG.  I'm going to do that "live" as I format it.

Here's the draft with the core rules: 

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1FMnGs4zZIY-HU6iuUb6TG4TnDR1JC4B8jaVvhZQCSEo/edit?usp=sharing

Going to format this tomorrow and shoot for a "first look" proofing pass by the end of the week. Once that's done, it's off to the printers. With holidays coming, not sure how long that will take, but as soon as I have an ETA from our folks, I'll let you know.

Note: I want this to be a bit more advanced, so expect a free "crunchy" rules version of this in PDF down the line. 

Oh, and if you didn't hear, Aubrey's been on maternity leave, so I'm working solo. Still, if you have something you need, you can reach out to me on the Discord ( https://discord.gg/bWetBpu5 ) or via my email address [email protected]

Thanks!
