PRODUCTION UPDATE: Check out the QC Station!
over 1 year ago – Sun, Nov 06, 2022 at 06:58:02 PM

Happy Thursday BAM Fam!

We've been busy as heck (as usual over here at HQ), and while we're waiting on the concept drawings for the final round of the Wild Terrain Pack Community Design Event, I wanted to share some images from our production line. We've got about a billion bits of Brutes and Carnateryx in bins at the moment to share with you. 

Check out the photos I took this morning below!

I am so proud of my team members working hard to produce all these minis to such a high level of finish. We learned so much from our first big project (Dungeon Delvers) on how we can make Rivenstone as clean as possible, and I really think it's showing in the final product. 

I'll have photos and videos of production soon to share as new models enter the line!

PLUS: NEW LINE ON AFFORDABLE INTL. SHIPPING

We have some other potential good news regarding international shipping on the horizon as well! While we've been working on getting our new tabletop RPG miniatures campaign for Forged: Adventure Series I built on BackerKit, we came across a shipping and fulfillment logistics company called Easyship that maintains warehouses all over the world. 

We'll be utilizing their services for shipping our Forged minis and books as they are being built in China, and Easyship has a Hong Kong warehouse that can offer great pricing shipping to the EU, UK, Asia, and Australia / NZ. 

We're currently in talks with them to sort out what costs they can offer us if we were to use that same Hong Kong warehouse for International Rivenstone distribution. It's a bit more complicated as we're producing/packing Rivenstone at HQ in the US, so we'll have to freight all International orders to Hong Kong for dispatch from there. However, I am hopeful this might the solution we've all been collectively wishing for! 

If you have any previous experience with other campaigns using Easyship for other campaigns you've backed, please let us know in the comments below. I am personally very interested to hear any first hand accounts of their service from y'all. 

Thanks again for all your support and patience as we continue our work here at HQ. We can't wait to get these minis out into the world and start playing Rivenstone for real!

All our best,

✌️ Hanna + the BAM Team

COMMUNITY DESIGN-A-THON: "Whimsical Overgrowth" Wins!
over 1 year ago – Wed, Oct 12, 2022 at 12:49:13 PM

Hello all!

Voting concluded on the design motif of choice for the Wild Terrain Pack last night, the resounding, uncontested winner with 68% of the overall vote is WHIMSICAL OVERGROWTH!

Many thanks to all of you who participated in this round. I like the direction this terrain is heading! 

Now comes the really fun part--in my opinion anyway: the concept drawings. The next round will involve choosing your favorite concept from a sheet of 4 options for each of the 3 pieces in the Terrain Set. 

This is also the most involved stage, so it may take our team a week or two to get those prepared for presentation to the community. So hang tight! We'll be back for Round 3 shortly! 

Thanks again for joining in on the fun, y'all. 😉

DESIGN-A-THON ROUND TWO: Twisted Orrery Moodboards Need Your Vote!
over 1 year ago – Fri, Sep 30, 2022 at 06:32:48 PM

WELCOME BACK! The generous support of our Kickstarter Backers and BackerKit Late Pledgers unlocked a set of Wild Faction Terrain that we want YOU to help us design by vote. Round One resulted in the theme Twisted Orrery, the ancient mysterious ruin of a massive celestial model left behind in the wilds of Venn.

Be our guest Creative Director and choose your favorite from the three moodboard options featured in the latest form (CLICK HERE TO VOTE!). Your choice will guide our concept art team at BAM HQ on the next steps of product development and eventually determine the next set of Rivenstone terrain going on shelves next year!

The winning choice from this round will proceed to be iterated on in concept and presented for a third and final round of voting. 

Happy choosing, BAMily!

DESIGN-A-THON ROUND ONE: Twisted Orrery Wins!
over 1 year ago – Sat, Sep 24, 2022 at 03:31:34 AM

What a wildly tight race to the finish! Thank you to all who joined in on this first round of fun. It's a great feeling to see so many of you participate in designing the Wild Terrain Pack and guide our creative process at HQ. This is a lot of fun for us to have you along for the creative development ride. 🚀

It's also clear that everyone loved all the ideas we presented, because it was very nearly an even three-way split in the end. But ultimately, the TWISTED ORRERY took the lead with 38% of the vote.

Our concept art team is currently sketching up three different mood board samples for Round Two, so you'll be able to pick the "vibe" y'all like most for this mysterious ruined Orrery. I expect to have Round Two of voting set up to go on Tuesday next week, so keep an eye out!
