That time of Tuesday again. Update time.
I'm still excited about the upcoming funding model change, and for any of you who have been putting off preordering just remember that Thursday 10/29 will be your last day to do so at the super-low price of $9.99(said in my best infomercial host voice).
Because of the change to the funding model (specifically the lowering of full funding from 1,000 orders to 750 orders) I have also decided to restructure my order-based chapter release schedule a bit as well. I'm going to slide everything down a tier from where it was originally placed. So now I'll be posting up Chapter 4 tomorrow(sped up a little so everyone will have time to read it before the change). The rest of the releases will be as follows:
50 preorders(only 10 more to reach this): Chapter 5.
100 preorders: Chapter 6.
250 preorders: Chapter 7.
500 preorders: Chapter 8.
750 preorders: the climactic Chapter 9.
1,000 preorders: Chapter 10.
2,000 preorders: Chapter 11.
5,000 preorders: Chapter 12.
Why the sudden jump at the end you ask? Well, the chapters in this book are a bit longer than usual, so Chapter 12 is the last, and I don't want to make it too easy to convince me to just post up the entire book.
Because I'll be posting up Chapter 5 this week I won't be posting a map as well, a change which has nothing to do with the fact that the map of the Zaltruscan Empire is large and more complicated than either of the two previous maps. Alright, it does, and there's no way I was going to be finished with in time for a post this week. Hopefully I will have finished it by next week, and the orders will have kept coming in so that I can post up both Chapter 6 and a map next week.
That's all I've got. Thanks for you support, keep reading, recommending, and for those of you haven't already ordered please do so. Also don't be shy about commenting/reviewing or following me on any of the other pages I posted links to on the project page.
Huge shout out to UMBC Comic Con! It was a pleasure to join your passionate community! (You can read the full blog post about the awesome UMBC COMIC CON here!)

Please don't put it off, it helps me a lot, and allows me to continue to meet awesome people like you at other conventions! THANKS!
As I mentioned, these credits also EXPIRE, so don't wait! Your free copy of RUNE is just a few clicks away! Simply go into your email, "claim" your creds, and then order RUNE (here) for free! EZ Mid, EZ Life! (Yes, that is a Dota2 reference, find me on Twitch here!)
P.S. Below are some SNEAK PEEKS of my new cosplay for Halloween:
I will be in NYC figuring out more details about the super top secret new Convention I have been working on, and wanted to up my cosplay game for the meetings. I'm still working on the full set, and when it is done, it will be AWESOME! Stay tuned for more on Facebook! Also, if you want to hang in NYC for Halloween drop me a line @StoneJamison

Nice to see readership growing, thanks for it all. Realize I've been a bit lax with chapters recently so going to upload two now for everyone. Feel free to read/review :)
