Good news
We got word back from the printer that our files are ready to go, meaning we are now awaiting the proofs for that final look-over. If those are good, we'll start printing the books.

Survey time
If you backed our campaign, especially for the physical tier, make sure to double-check if you filled in your survey. We can't ship a book to you if you haven't, nor can we include your book in the final printing numbers. You might mis out!

Printing update
Hi there! We hope you are enjoying the PDF of the Quintessential Guide to Monster Encounters as much as we enjoyed creating it. The feedback on this has been amazing, and we are eternally grateful for your support.
The full cover of the Quintessential Guide to Monster Encounters
We are working closely with a well known printer (printed for Loresmyth to name one example) to make the QGME the best it can be. Their standards are pretty high, and we have been doing some back and forth to get it right. We can now say that we are VERY close to delivering them the final printing file. After all, we only get one chance to get this right.
Thanks again for your support, patience and love!

Now that The Quintessential Guide to Monster Encounters is out in the wild, we'd like to ask you two things;
Firstly, if you find any errors in the book, big or small, please report them to [email protected]. We will update the PDF regularly and want the print copy to be the best it can be.
Second, we would appreciate it if you'd leave a small review on DrivethruRPG about the book. This can really help us in the long run. Tell us what your favorite encounter is.encounter is.
