Mission X: Obviously Not 2025. Life happened, read on.
Important Update for 2025/2026
Sorry folks, life got complicated this past year. It’s obviously December 2025, and Mission X won’t be launching in 2025 like I hoped.
I got a new “day job” last November, which has been exceptionally rewarding and exceptionally busy. Compound that with my wife effectively being almost permanently in Texas for her own job from April through November 2025, and I was too busy working and living the Single Dad Life to my two children to do sufficient writing. Then in the last month, my wife’s entire department was RIF’d, and she’ll be starting something new in January (navigated that transition like a boss).
The project is not canceled, nor is it on hold … but it is moving much, much more slowly than I wished. I’m probably going to kick off something in the interim – likely making the Sedra and Elazar setting books (by David) available and in color for the Dungeon Fantasy RPG, and Elazar in B/W for both OSE and TFT … and maybe one more system … so I can properly pay for the art for Mission X.
That being said, I do now have a complete manuscript by David Pulver that contains vehicle design details that are intermediate between the old huge vehicles book and Spaceships. I need to edit it and decide what to do with it to meet my goals for the MX system, but it’s in hand and some initial toying with it look promising. The vehicles manuscript will be worked into the eventual crowdfunding campaign somehow, maybe as a stretch goal, maybe integrated. We shall see!
So … stay tuned, and I apologize for the delay. As always, I won’t launch this and start collecting pledges until the book is written and playtested, so by the time it does launch, it wont’ be vaporware.
