[TAG] Hellfrost Atlas of the Frozen North *Kickstarter - Finished*Author: Paul "Wiggy" Wade-Williams

WOW!That pretty much sums up our feelings at TAG right now. When you guys asked for a compiled Region Guide book with tons of maps we were a little dubious it could be funded, such were the costs involved of producing a book of that scope. Well, not only did you ask for it but but you made it a reality!
This project is huge, not only in terms of your fantastic response but also the content. Twenty of the 28 bonus pages you unlocked have now been written (see below), but that’s just the start of what will be a taxing, enjoyable, and lengthy process. Please remember this Kickstarter wasn’t a pre-order to cover printing – funding for the art and maps has only just been achieved. We’re at the start of a long road, not the end. The Atlas isn’t the only project we’re working on, but we’re used to juggling multiple complex projects, and April 2015 is a realistic release date.
We’ll keep you updated with major developments as they occur, but right now that’ll probable be no more than once a month. More happens nearer the end of the production, once art flows in, chapters are assembled, and the editors get to work.

A freebie Spyre location:
The Hammered Head: Instantly recognizable by its sign (a hammer smashing down on a bare head), this New City tavern sells the strongest drink in the city, a potent wine known locally as Hammer. Most people can manage only two small flagons before they begin to stagger like they’ve taken a serious blow to the head. The drink is so well known that it has spawned a local expression—anyone staggeringly drunk, regardless of the drink they have consumed, is said to be Hammered.
Thank you again for funding the Hellfrost Atlas!
