Hi all,
Thanks for your patience with this process. We are pleased to announce that our Arcforge books have cleared processing with the printer and I've already submitted 58 print orders in the last 24 hours! Our printer estimate says that books should start shipping from the factory within about 2-3 weeks, so for most of you, they should be in your hands before the month is out! I should have the rest of the print orders processed in the next day or two, but check your email inbox just in case I have a question about an address discrepancy or anything else needed to finalize your shipment!
- For people getting the full set of hardcovers--not just the Arcforge Players Compendium and Arcforge Universe Cyclopedia, but also books like the Alien Codex, Alien Bestiary Companion, and Aethera Field Guide--you may get your books in two separate packages just because of the way shipping costs break down based on package weight. If you open a box and all your books aren't in there, the other books should be arriving soon.
- We have 12 backers who still have not completed their backer surveys, and if we don't have your information or if you haven't paid your shipping then we can't ship your books to you, so double check your information so you can get your stuff!
Once again, we appreciate all your help making this project come to life. For sci-fi fans of LG, we wanted you to be the first to know we've got something cooking for the 10th anniversary of the Legendary Planet Adventure Path, so keep an eye out for that! Meanwhile, we also wanted to invite you to check out our latest project for PF1 (and more) with Wardens of the Wild! It's pretty much the farthest thing from Arcforge, leaning all the way into forest, fantasy, and fey but it's mostly about classes of the wilderness!
- For Pathfinder First Edition players, Legendary Classes: Masters of the Wild brings together an incredible collection of our Legendary Classes product line including Legendary Druids, Legendary Hunters, Legendary Rangers, and Legendary Shifters, as well as entire chapters dedicated to animal companions, hybrid Skinchangers, new shaman spirits, feats, spells, prestige classes, archetypes, and ready-to-use sample NPC Gallery!
-
Pathfinder Second Edition fans will find a bevy of fey and forest class options in Heroes of the Wild, including the elementalist, hunter, and shaman classes alongside tons of other class options, plus nearly 100 magic items, over 200 spells, and over 350 fantastic feats!
- Last but not least, Wardens of the Wild for 5E 2024 has tons of terrific new options for druids and rangers, focusing on both standard player options as well as creepy and villainous feats, spells, magic items, and more!
It all ends next Friday, May 9th, with fulfillment starting immediately! We'd love to share this project with you so check it out and have a Legendary week!

Thanks to each and every one of you for your patience with this project, but happy days are here! I've just uploaded the final proofed PDF for the Arcforge Universe Cyclopedia up to Backerkit, so you can log on and download it today and soak in 364 pages of spectacular sci-fi, fantasy, and cosmic horror adventure!
I also finished proofing of the Arcforge Player's Compendium this weekend, and all that remains on that book is tweaking two pieces of art and finalizing the table of contents, and it'll be in your hands as soon as I get the final files back from layout!
We hope you love these books and enjoy adding them to your collection, and we'll be sending out the "lock addresses" email on Backerkit so you can check to make sure your mailing address is correct! Once print proofing files are processed through the system, we'll be ready to start shipping all your books to you!
Proofing Complete on Arcforge Universe Cyclopedia!
about 1 year ago

Hi all,
Things are moving quickly on the Arcforge Universe Cyclopedia! Layout is complete on all the base text and I've completed proofing the 330-page PDF, and 178 comments later it's back to layout for corrections! We also had a glitch where the bestiary chapter art went missing and I had to go search through our archives and rebuild it earlier this week, but all of the art is now with layout as well!
The Arcforge Player's Compendium is likewise coming in for a finish soon. The layout artist has been dealing with health issues but pressing through (which is why we pivoted and switched the second book to a different layout artist), and we've been setting up chapter headings and splash pages! Proofing on this book is complete and we're just waiting for all the art to get placed and finalized.
I'm checking in regularly with both layout artists and share your disappointment that the first book has taken as long as it has (I did my proofing on that 310-page text PDF on January 25), but I appreciate your patience as we all are looking forward to getting the final books ready for you as soon as possible!
Layout update!

Hi all,
It's been a week and layout continues. I've been digging up missing art pieces and getting them over to layout so they can be dropped into the text on the Player's Compendium and Matt has been working in parallel with me by doing another pass on the Universe Cyclopedia making sure the art placement notes are correct (we had some issues with different names for art in the doc vs. the Dropbox on the first book so we had to cross-check about 100 art pieces everything to make sure all the art matched where it was supposed to go and find the missing ones). He's also cross-checking to make sure all the pieces are there in the layout Dropbox for the second book so we won't run into the same issue.
The last piece of art is a revised Vandara world map that I sent out Friday to cartographer par excellence Michael Tumey, a longtime friend of LG and contributor to tons of our adventures like the massive Legendary Planet Adventure Path. Once the map is finalized, I'll send out a preview for it in our next update!
It's getting so close and we appreciate your patience as we put the finishing touches on these terrific tomes!
