Back from Gen Con US 2012!

Hi everyone!

It has now been ten days since we got back from Gen Con US 2012, the time for us to take a modicum of rest and take stock on everything we have experienced. We attended the event in partnership with Studio 2 Publishing, and we truly had a blast during the four days of this mythic event. We will make sure to come back next year!

Valentin of Agate RPG and Nel, lead director of the Esteren series

This event was the opportunity for us to meet the backers from the Kickstarter campaign and thank them for their support, but also and mainly to introduce Shadows of Esteren to the American community in person. We were delighted that newcomers such as us got very positive opinions, even from people who did not know of the game beforehand. It encourages us to always outdo ourselves and aim for the best! 

During the convention, we also got to make the acquaintance of the fine folks from the Wizards of the Coast staff, and of the makers of the Neverwinter MMORPG. It was almost dizzying to receive the praise of such professionals, which is something like a consecration for a role-playing game. We met lots of nice people, very enthusiastic, thank you all...

Finally, our thanks go to the French fandom who followed us on Facebook and backed us through this whole adventure! You can check out the complete album of the event here.

See you next year!

Thank you everyone for your great support !

Meet Us at GenCon US, August 16-19!

On the occasion of the release of Shadows of Esteren in the English language, we will be at GenCon US August 16-19, 2012 in Indianapolis, Indiana. You can meet Nelyhann, author, illustrator, and coordinator of the series; Clovis, Esteren's head translator, and Valentin, the French editor from Agate RPG.

It is a great moment for us to come to this mythical event, a landmark of role-playing!

You can come and meet us at the Studio 2 Publishing booth, Exhibitor Hall, booth #419. However, that is not all: for all the backers of this Kickstarter campaign, it will be the opportunity to come and directly collect all your rewards, including the limited edition of the book!

Signing and talking session

We will be glad to talk about role-playing with you. Valentin can tell you about how the role-playing game market exists and spreads in France.

Nelyhann will propose a signing session during the four days. However, he draws watercolor illustrations, which take time, and of which he can only do a limited number. Here is what these illustrations look like:


See you soon!

Kickstarter: That's it!

That's it, the Kickstarter campaign for Shadows of Esteren is over, we will now be going back to a regular activity...

We are very happy but sad at the same time. It was an incredible month, very intense. Kickstarter is a very strong human adventure. This is the opportunity to THANK YOU once more, because thanks to you, we have been able to finance very nice bonuses, and a limited edition that all the authors are eager to hold in their hands!

Let us meet at Gen Con in a few weeks for the first printed copies, and for all the others, from the end of August, our partner Studio 2 Publishing will start sending the PDFs and all the rewards.

Sincerely yours,
The Shadows Team
