Merchant licences available now
almost 2 years ago – Mon, May 16, 2022 at 03:34:24 AM

Hello everyone! Are you enjoying your prints and the games you play with them? Maybe you'd like to be able to get them out to other gamers in your area, or maybe you're already using your 3d printer to make money by selling prints. 

Either way, we can now offer you the opporunity to purchase a licence from us to print and sell all the Drowned and the Damned models* currently available.

Licences are available for one year for £70 or for perpetuity for £150. 


Please contact me either through here or by e-mailing [email protected] 

Thanks

*rights are to sell printed models only, not to re-sell STL files 

New Year and Resolutions
over 2 years ago – Wed, Jan 05, 2022 at 08:03:18 AM

Happy New Year to you all! I hope you have had the best of festive seasons, and I wish you a happy and prosperous New Year. 

I am very aware that you've been waiting for an update for some time, and for that I apologise. I've been waiting until I have some positive news to share but I realise from some communications from you that even when there's not much to share I should keep you in the loop so you don't think the project is dead.

So here's my first resolution: I will do better at keeping you up to date. 

You might expect my second to be that I will deliver your models to those of you that are still waiting- it's not because that was always the case. There is no doubt I will deliver you your models. 

Why is it taking so long? In brief there are three reasons, none of which can be blamed on anyone but us:

1.  Finances. We keep running out of money and it's been a very difficult period for all small businesses. As we haven't delivered to you, we couldn't sell models for this game even if we had enough to do so, which we don't, because:

2. Manufacturing. When our partners who were to manufacture the models pulled out I had 3 3d printers working. Today I have 1. One of the others is fixable, one is probably not. I will hopefully be in a position to purchase another before too long. This causes delays, and stress, which leads to:

3. My health. I'm not here for sympathy so I shan't go into detail, but my health has caused delays too. 

The Good News 

I will begin shipping some fleets soon. I've changed the priority of printing so that I can start shipping individual sets by completing the printer of small amounts of the last few bits rather than continuing to print big bulks of one at a time. If the printing gods are kind I will ship some sets THIS WEEK.


My Second Resolution: I will support this game. I made this game because I wanted to, because I like it, because I want to play it. I want it to work. I want to get out and play it WITH YOU. As such, I will be updating the rules, taking the game to shows and clubs, and there WILL be more ships. 


I hope this sets some minds at ease. I plan on another update soon, with a video of some more gameplay elements to be shared more widely, but which I hope will whet your appetites to play.

The Rules
over 2 years ago – Sun, Aug 08, 2021 at 10:08:55 AM

Ahoy me hearties! The rules are available now! If you're on MMF then you will already have access to them. Everyone else, either grab them from the Facebook page here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2398356560446278/permalink/2932737830341479/


Or dm me and I will e-mail them to you. 


The rules are currently in BETA form - they are not complete, but I have decided to send them out seeking feedback from you all before finalising or making any changes. They are absolutely playable as is, and they have, indeed, been played, but because of the pandemic I haven't been able to play against as many different people as I would like to get feedback. 


I'm really looking forward to seeing and hearing how you all get on. Please, if you can, share feedback in the Facebook group, as this allows a discussion to take place. If you don't use Facebook, please e-mail Rich any thoughts at [email protected] 

Physical models are still being printed, I'm hoping to really get through a lot now that the back is broken on the rules! 

Cheers me hearties
