What if the crime hasn't happened yet? In #TheHonourOfTheYorkshireLightArtillery, the sixth #SherlockHolmes #gamebook, you're undercover at a high-society party to prevent a jewel theft--not solve one. But the deeper you dig, the more layers you peel back...

After almost a full year, Ahu's First Patrol is finished, just in time for the holiday season.
The digital edition went out to backers yesterday. Print copies follow in August.
I'm relieved this came together, and grateful to everyone who backed it.

Saturday morning, probably the last time I'm updating the cover pages for Ahu's First Patrol. Now that the page count is set, it's only a matter of small adjustments and tiny improvements.
Ahu's First Patrol is a solo adventure gamebook set in Kaung Pi, compatible with 5th Edition. Guide Ahu, a young Warden of the Path, through a land rooted in South and Southeast Asian cultures.
Late pledges close this week; last chance to grab a copy.

I really enjoyed the Lone Wolf gamebooks by Joe Dever back in the day. Never as well known as the Fighting Fantasy series, LW was more plot focused, and more consistent in tone and mechanical competence.
I only mention it because I just discovered that a new book in the series has just been released. At $42 I will not be buying it, even as a special edition hardback. But I am glad something from my childhood is still finding readers.

Ci scrivono dalla Polonia (fortunatamente non in polacco).
Vorreste leggere anche voi "Un giorno da Cana" o "Una notte da cana" o "15 mondi da Cana" in polacco?
Provate a contattare l'editore foxgames.pl
Nel caso vada bene anche l'italiano, metto dei link nei commenti.

I just wanted to share that a first review of Ahu's First Patrol came back and the reader/player liked it. This is a good day. If you put so much effort into e project you really hope that people like it, but you only find out - when you find out.
Happy day. Let's see what the next reviewers say.

🔥 A bomb explodes in a subway station—but the truth is far darker than it seems.
In #TheDynamiters, an army officer refuses to accept the official story. His friend is dead, the clues don’t add up, and the real conspiracy is closer to home than imagined.
Non-linear investigation | Terrorism vs. imperialism | Moral ambiguity
A fast-paced, action-driven thriller with shades of Ludlum and le Carré. -

The last few weeks were all editing and iteration—multiple playtests, section-by-section proofreading, formatting improvements, updated maps, and work beginning on the 10 bonus illustrations unlocked through the stretch goal.
Today, the external review phase began. Nine volunteers are now reading the current digital version, and their feedback will guide the final revision pass.
Slowly but surely, the project is approaching the finish line.

Look at that! Someone mentioned Ahu's First Patrol on Wargamer:

This weekend is all about proof-reading and playtesting Ahu's First Patrol. Keeping all the different branches and options aligned in my small brain is, well, challenging. Fun fact: sometimes I read a section (there are 350 of them) and am surprised myself.
Link in pinned post, if interested.

The Kickstarter for Ahu’s First Patrol is funded — thank you!
Now we’re working toward the first stretch goal: unlocking 10 additional interior illustrations.
All artwork in the book is commissioned from human artists, like this illustration of a Pundu trader traveling the roads of Kaung Pi.
The campaign is still running:

An overview video of Ahu's First Patrol (not by me). Also happens to be a 10 minute introduction to D&D 5e rules.

@marteloschwarz This looks fantastic and is something I have been wanting for a long time.
A scripted #DungeonsAndDragons solo adventure #GameBook along the lines of something like #TunnelsAndTrolls.
I have never understood why there is so much support for Oracle systems that just come up with random events compared to a well-written handcrafted solo campaign or adventure.
I have really been waiting for something like this and can't wait to secure a copy!!!!

The patrol begins today!
After years of development, Ahu’s First Patrol is now live on Kickstarter — a replayable solo adventure gamebook using D&D 5e mechanics, designed to be playable even if you’ve never played before.
Explore Kaung Pi, make meaningful choices, and experience a full adventure on your own.
