Hi all
It's been a while since we came out of our writing cave to let you know what's up. It's with great pride I can tell you all encounters are fully written and the biggest part of the book is now in the layout phase. There is more to be done, but we believe to be on schedule.
The luxtrap
To thank you for your patience, we decided to toss another encounter your way. This time by the brain of DungeonDad*. Hit the image to download the encounter. As always, everything you see is a work-in-progress.

Good news
While we are not yet ready to share another playtesting encounter with you (it's coming), I could not resists showing you this amazing piece of artwork from Danny Pavlov. The Chicken Harpies are an encounter by the wicked brain of WallyDM, coming to a Quintessential Guide near you.
It is with great pleasure that I get to announce that we have decided to work (even) closer with JVC Parry on the Quintessential Guide to Monster Encounters. As a writing consultant, editor and all round fix'm upper, we know this means the book will be able to reach its full potential.
Are you Cypher curious?
After releasing Isle of the Dreaded Accursed for 5th edition, I am now bringing it to the Cypher System by Monte Cook Games. The campaign has already hit 70% funded but needs your support to succeed. If you want to see how a narrative driven fantasy adventure translates over to the Cypher System, make sure to check it out here.
Expect an update, with another encounter for you to throw at your players, soon!

Don't let this fail
If you've ever trusted my word on something, this is the time to at least visit the page below. Seeds of Wars remains to be one of the most amazing RPG books in my collection. The expansion is only 10% away from being funded, with just about 24 more hours to go. It's going to be a close call. The creator truly deserves your support, please help:
A couple of you have been asking if you could expect an April update about the Quintessential Guide. And yes, our plan is to put another play test out, and we also have a few new and exciting things to announce.
