Hail, Eem Adventurers!

Strap on your traveling pack and prepare yourself for an epic journey, because there's a lot to share today!

The Mucklands Book of Random Encounters PDF is HERE! 🎲
First things first, the much-anticipated Book of Random Encounters PDF is now available for download! Your journeys in Eem just got a lot more unpredictable and thrilling. With 1,500 Random Encounters (around 80 pages), you’ll be braving the murky Quagmash swamps or navigating the bustling city streets of Fleabag County with a huge variety of possibilities. From perilous encounters to fantastic discoveries, this book is an invaluable resource for Land of Eem and we’re super excited to get it into your hands. Look for links in your Backerkit account or in your email.



Slip into Elegance with our Slipcases! 📔
We're elated to unveil the designs for the box set slipcases. Originally, we were considering a nested box, but the slipcase made much more sense for Land of Eem’s three weighty tomes (plus the other extras). Crafted with both aesthetics and durability in mind, these cases will keep your books protected and look splendid on your shelves. And all of the gold filigree will be printed in gold foil on the slipcase!

All Book Covers: Finalized and Fabulous! 📚
The full cover designs for all our books have finally come together and are headed to pre-production for beautiful hardcover treatment!


Pre-Production: Engines are Roaring! 🛠️
We’re in the process of finalizing the files for print. That means double checking a ton of bits and bobs ranging from margins, to colors, to more complex elements like spot gloss and fancy gold foil. We’re dotting the i’s, crossing the t’s, and preparing the spells to bring Land of Eem to life. This stage ensures that every element, from printing quality to binding strength, meets a good standard, so that you all end up with the best books, maps, and game master screens that we can make.

What’s next?
First of all, we’d like to thank you sincerely for your patience. With a project this big (over 1000 pages of material!), it can take a minute to get everything ready. We encountered some pre-production delays, which are hard to predict, but are now moving forward. Your patience, feedback, and unwavering support have been like a wind in our sails! 

As we gear up for printing, we’ll keep you in the loop on every exciting milestone. Plus, we’re working to fulfill every PDF release, which includes the adventures and the Mucklands Explorer’s Guide sandbox companion, so you can beef up your games or kick off new groups. 

That being said, thanks again to everyone on the Land of Eem Discord! It’s so encouraging to see everyone sharing details of their games, engaging with the community, and kicking off new groups across the globe. We love you!

Thank you for joining us on this incredible journey. There’s more to come soon!

Your pals, 
Ben and James and Exalted Funeral 

Pungeon Quest PDF, Online Generators & More! HA HA!
9 months ago – Fri, Aug 25, 2023 at 12:18:09 PM

Greetings, Bold Backers!

Tell me, why do dragons await Land of Eem updates with bated breath? Because they’re fired up for some hot news! 
Prepare yourselves, adventurers… for it is I, The PUNDERLORD! And I’m positively thrilled to swing open the gates of my puntastic lair and bring you a flurry of updates! So without further ado!

  1. Pungeon Quest PDF Delivery! Rejoice! The Pungeon Quest PDF has dispatched to all those who purchased it! Check your inboxes (and maybe those pesky spam folders, just in case) for your digital copy and dive into the perilous puntastic system-neutral adventure that awaits. Contact [email protected] for any questions.
  2. Online Random Generators are LIVE! Perhaps you’ve already noticed, but now you can conjure a multitude of random elements to add flavor to your tabletop adventures! Need to populate your Land of Eem games with Towns, Taverns, NPCs, Dungeons, Encounters, Adversaries, Treasure Hoards, Items, or Crafting Components? Well, I’ve got you covered! HA-HA! Head over to our Random Generators! However, we have just one teeny note: the PC Generator is still being tweaked by my team of electric wizards, so it’s currently not functioning properly. But all the others are fair game! 
  3. Maps, Maps, and more Maps! You asked for it, so I commanded my minions to jump into action and upload all the Mucklands Settlement maps for you all to download! Just head on over to Land of Eem Maps!
  4. Land of Eem Books Printing Update! The Land of Eem books are mere inches away from being transformed into glorious print. We can almost hear the hum of the printing machines now! Stay alert, because an update on this is set to arrive imminently.

I bid thee thanks for all the unwavering support and passion for the Land of Eem! And for all you backers who pledged for the Pungeon Quest PDF adventure, I’ll be waiting HA HA!

Here’s to hijinks!
The Punderlord


Important Update: PDFs Available & Printing Progress!
10 months ago – Wed, Aug 02, 2023 at 01:16:09 PM

Ahoy Land of Eem Backers!

We hope this message finds you in the midst of a series of adventures! We are excited to share a HUGE MILESTONE, as well as give up an update on production and what’s next for the campaign! So without further adieu, the announcement!

Land of Eem PDFs are NOW AVAILABLE TO DOWNLOAD FOR BACKERS!

Huzzah! The moment we've all been waiting for has arrived! The digital PDFs of the Core Rulebook,The Mucklands Sandbox Setting, and Bestiary Vol.1 are now available to Backers for download. 

We have to say, it's been a heck of a journey to make it this far and we want to shout out a special thanks to everyone who provided feedback when we released the proofs. A super-mega-jumbo amount of work went into it and we’re so, so thrilled to share them today so you can kick off new adventures with your groups!

To access your copy, please log into your Backerkit account and click Get Your Downloads. If you have any trouble downloading your PDF, don't hesitate to contact us. We’ll get you squared away in two shakes of a liger shark’s tail. Seriously, we're here to help and want to ensure that you can dive into the fantastical Land of Eem without delay.

Additionally, both editable and printable Character Sheets, as well as a high resolution final version of the Mucklands Map are live on landofeem.com! See? There they are!

PRINTING UPDATES:
As with all large projects, we've encountered some hiccups along the way, specifically on the printing side of things. We've been diligently working through some minor technical difficulties (which mostly have to do with finalizing hundreds of odds and ends) to ensure the final physical product is nothing short of spectacular. The good news is, with the PDFs now complete, we’re finally ready to submit everything to print in the coming days. So hold onto your hats!

We know our original target for fulfillment was some time in August, but given our current timeline, it looks like the print version will be delayed at least a couple of months (we’re working to pin down an exact timeframe as we speak). We know you’re all eagerly anticipating having Land of Eem in your hands and we’re working around the clock to make that happen as swiftly as we can! We’re absolutely dedicated to releasing the highest quality game that we possibly can and making sure the production values are stellar.

Rest assured, we will keep you posted every step of the way now that the PDFs are available. Our commitment to transparency and frequent updates will be stronger than ever.

THANK YOU
Thank you again for your amazing support, your patience, and your passion for Land of Eem. No joke, we're deeply grateful to have such an awesome, creative, imaginative, and supportive community backing us up (Shout out Discord!). And we’re stoked that with the PDFs released, you’ll be able to fully explore the game and world that we've created.

Until next time, may your dice rolls be high and your adventures be epic!

Thanks again, 
The Land of Eem Team
