Fortnightly Progress - 27th April

• No Haven

Dang this is going to be an absolutely humongous update from how all the planning and writing is going. 

Hit a nice milestone yesterday in that all the writing for mermaids is now entirely done. So that's their lore examine, their first assignment, the encampment upgrade you'll need to be able to actually enslave them rather than just having them as a slaver, the starts, all of it. I really do like how they turned out as a race, and I'll hope you'll find them as fun as I do. 

While not for this update I did end up also coming up with a new mechanic this week which I think is going to be a decent addition. A fun and probably needed extra gold sink. Question now is when I'm going to find the time to do the implementation as it's certainly not going to be this one, cause as mentioned, humongous. 

• The No Haven Conversion / Picarto Streams

This genuinely might be the biggest two weeks I've ever had for the conversion to date.

It's been absolutely astounding how well this has gone, and has significantly boosted my optimism for actually getting this conversion to be an actual thing you can play. 

I had been decidedly nervous about hitting that Finish Day button for the first time. Soooo much happens, and the thought of untangling all that when it was obviously going to break badly was going to be a nightmare. 

Not only did I manage to get a day to finish, with weather even, I got several days to finish, I got an assignment to be complete, and it to actually put the slavers back where they should be, and even a report of what one of them did in the evening. 

I also managed to start like 90% of the Great Plains assignments including a couple of the rare ones. 

Did all of the streams so that was good too. Okay I did end up doing two of the streams as one longer stream on a Saturday evening. Still the time spent working on the conversion got done, and after talking about it on the discord the unanimous opinon that keeping it flexible by aiming to do the Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday ones is the ideal, but if I miss any do them as a catchup on Saturday is a good way to make things less stressy. It also caters to those who can't catch the weekday ones. 

Speaking of catching up on the streams. One thing I realise I haven't been mentioning in ages is that there are vods available of the last twelve streams. So I've started mentioning that on the twitter when I'm about to go live, and you can find them by clicking on Videos above the stream.  

• Commissions

Commisions 99, 100, 101 are either basically done or entirely done, and you'll be seeing them over the next few days. I am so, so pleased with the big 100 especially and it fits so well for such a significant number.  Can't wait to share that with you all. 

January+February - They Choose You : Actually got some progress today! Yay! Dare I say this may not take all that much longer...

July+August - Dominance Training : First part is done. Waiting on the refined sketch of the second part. 

September+October - The Shorty Set (Kobold) : Basically done. Just asked for a small adjustment which should be done today. 

November - Lich : Entirey done. Artist has offered to provide something special extra, and they're aiming to get that to me on the weekend. So I'm waiting on that before I make the post. 

Up to Feb - Wind Swept : Like 80-90% done so you'll be seeing this one soon I'm sure. 

Up to Feb - Banshee : Artist asked if they could move this one to early May for entirely reasonable reasons. 

Up to Feb - Disbanded! : Artist is confirmed and it's starting May or June is the plan.

March - Grim Anywhere  : Artist is confirmed. They are working on another piece for me. So this one is going to get started after that one.

The March+April Commission Poll has finished and should come as no surprise Barbrous Bargains crushed it. 

Next commission polll should be up towards the end of next week. 

As always I hope that was worth the read, and thank you so, so much for your patience and support!
