Good Afternoon Everyone!
We wanted to let everyone know that Book #4 - "Innocent in Still-Echo" is going to be delivered into your email that have purchased the PDF version of the book. Please wait until tomorrow morning if you have not received your copy. This will give the book a little time to get through everyone's email filters. If you haven't received it by tomorrow please reach out to us at [email protected] and we will send you a copy.
Lastly, the Shard Tabletop version will be release by weeks end. We are finalizing some last minute fixes in the adventure. You will receive an email directly from Shard with a link for adventure. We will send out an email when it is available for play at the end of the week. Also, if anyone is interested in purchasing the supplemental adventure you will be able to purchase it through Shard Tabletop!

Hello Everyone,
Today, we have an update and its going to be a long one. There are a lot of good stuff to go over today with the books! So instead of just talking lets jump right into the information.
Second, Book #4 "Innocent in Still Echo" is being released on Shard Tabletop by the end of the month. We are waiting for a few corrections but hopefully we can send those also out by the 31st!
Third, Book #4 "Innocent in Still Echo" PDF version will also be released next week. So if you purchased the PDF version you will be receiving that. We will send out an update on the release.
Fourth, All STL files for the dungeon tiles are now complete and we will also be releasing those and sending those via email to you next week!
Now lets talk about the other 2 books(Book 2 and Book 3)!
Book #2 "Darklands of Vlaskhell" - There is some outstanding news here. The owner decided to add nearly 200 additional pages to this book! The book now is over 500 pages long! Its a mammoth book but it is far and above our favorite and due to the added material it will take us longer to finish. However, you get to benefit from the added material!
Book 2 status is follow:
Book 2 is in the editing department(expected finish will take roughly 2 months).
All portrait artwork is finished.
All item artwork is finished.
Scenery Artwork still has around 30 pictures left to finish(80% complete).
Actor Voice Over should start next week and expected to take 2 months to finish.
Maps are moving along nicely and are roughly 80% completed.
Miniatures are finished.
We expect to turn Book 2 over to Chris our formatter sometime in September. Once Chris has the book it will take him and our editing department roughly 2-3 months to finish. We will keep you posted.
Next is the last book, Book #3 "Mines of Shjekhel". This book is now completely written and approved. However, we will not move forward on Book 3 until we have finished Book #2. Once artwork is finished on Book #2 we will move quickly to Book #3, same goes for editing, voice acting and maps. We expect artwork will start about a month before editing, voice acting, and maps starts.
Finally, the last item. There are still over 100 customers that have not filled out your surveys on the backend. These surveys need to be filled out by the end of August. This is the final deadline.If you do not fill them out you will not receive your purchase and there are no refunds. Also, there are numerous accounts that payments got denied on the backend. Those also need to be corrected as soon as possible. We are not trying to be rude or screw anyone but soon we will be needing to place our order for manufacturing.
Late pledges will stop being accepted on September 30th, 2025.
If anyone has any questions or concerns, please email us at [email protected]
Have a great weekend. We leave you with a few new pictures from our book!

Happy June 1st!!!
We cant believe it is June already! Time is flying by and we wanted to give a quick update to everyone before the summer starts. So, lets get right into the update.
As everyone should know by now, the 1st book "Trouble in Havdhir" has been released by PDF and on Shard Tabletop VTT! We hope everyone is playing in person and online. Post us a review on our website and let us know what you think! Heres the link: https://www.tombguardians.com/forum
The 4th book or supplemental adventure that goes with "Trouble in Havdhir" and takes the party through an underground prison, is now going through final review and is currently being programmed for release on Shard Tabletop this month. We expect to release both the PDF version and Shard VTT version at the end of the month.
STL files, have run into a slight snag. The final dungeon room where the party will meet the Usurper, had to be changed and modified. Those changes are currently being made and once completed we will print. Expect the STL files to be in your email mid month. We will make an announcement before we release. This is a huge file and will be delivered by a "zip file".
We are currently working on Book 2 "Darklands of Vlaskhell." This book got a little bit out of control and the owner wanted to add more and more. This book alone is now over 500 pages but WOW ITS AMAZING and we cannot wait for you all to start playing! Currently, the book is in editing, going back and forth between the editors, the writer and the owner.Editing is about 30% done. Artwork is also coming along nicely and stands at roughly 70% complete. Actor voiceover, will start once editing is completed. Lastly, is the maps. Maps are also about 70% complete. If all goes well we are anticipating to hand over Book 2 to our formatter(Chris) by end of July. We are a little behind schedule on this book but its due to us adding more content to the book.
The last book, Book 3. Book 3 is completely written. And our writer is in process of final review before he turns it over to the owner for his approval. Once, approved the owner will mark the book up and then go back to Dillon. Once, that goes back and forth(rather fast process) it will be turned over to editing.
Finally, the last item. There are still a lot of customers that have not filled out your surveys on the backend. These surveys need to be filled out by the end of July. If you do not fill them out you will not receive your purchase and there are no refunds. Also, there are numerous accounts that payments got denied on the backend. Those also need to be corrected as soon as possible. We are not trying to be rude or screw anyone but soon we will be needing to place our order for manufacturing.
Lastly, before we finish we wanted to let everyone know that our writer Dillon is releasing his own 5e book! Called "The Mages' War", Magic vs. Machines. Please check it out! It releases mid June.
Well that's it for now. We hope everyone has a safe and fun summer. We will post an update in mid July. By that time we will have a lot more to talk about. If anyone has any questions or comments please email us at [email protected]. We leave your with a few new pieces of art. Hope you like them.
