Merry Christmas!

My games are finished and await wrapping. Also, my website has a holding page in place to field initial responses: revolutionboardgame.com.

May you have a wonderful Christmas this year!

It's Almost Christmas!

I've been down at Santa's workshop a lot this week, finishing my 10 units for Christmas. If all goes as planned, they should be finished tomorrow!

In other news, my new website will soon be online (at least with a holding page until I hear back from the copyright folks).

Maybe I can start posting a few technical articles soon...

Quick Update

I am close to finishing the 10 units to be given as Christmas presents. Today I worked on covering boxes with the labels. The new and improved top labels fit *perfectly*. The bottom will need a few revisions for the next printing. Also, the copyright application has been sent, as of last Friday. I wonder how long that will take?

Box Bottom Printed

Despite being racked by illness (along with my whole family), I have finished the last piece of the puzzle: the box bottom. I printed these today, as well as some improved sheets for the box top. The image on the box bottom is a bit pixelated. Maybe I will get a chance to improve that and a few other spots of concern. Nevertheless, having a completely-assembled game in my hands is a huge milestone!

Tomorrow I will mail the copyright application. Once I hear back from them, I will begin to post lots more images and launch my main website.

My current goal is to produce 15 copies by the end of the year (10 of which will be given as Christmas presents). :) Still, I'm super-busy, so it won't be easy. Wish me luck!

First Printing!

We managed to print out everything (almost) necessary for a complete game, and enough of each to finish 25 copied by year's end. As you can see, the box turned great! I couldn't be happier! I still have to finish up the bottom of the box and file for my copyright. Stay tuned for more...

Construction Has Begun

Here are some pictures of my progress. Basically, I've made about 12 complete boxes (without the labels--coming soon...) and 4 boards. Things will pick up after tomorrow when I finally get some printing done. My wooden cubes are also in production.

The Paper Is Here!

My paperboard actually arrived last week (I've been too busy to post till now). It came on a big truck on top of a pallet (300 lbs. total)! This cost me a big $400--so I guess I'm committed to making a least the first 50-100 copies. I've got it all in a secure location until construction begins. I've also done some tests to figure out a few other construction details. I meet with my printer next week, so things are moving along now! Pictures will be coming soon...
