Lead & Chrome: A Post-Apocalyptic Tabletop RPG

Created by Adventures Await Studios

Lead and Chrome is a tabletop roleplaying game set in a post-ecocide world where the oceans have dried up, nearly all life has gone extinct, and the small percentage of humans who survived now eke out a living in the ruined wasteland that remains.

Ordered 2nd Round of Proofs
10 months ago – Mon, May 05, 2025 at 04:09:36 PM

Hey folks!

I just ordered the 2nd round of proofs after getting the covers fixed. I'm just waiting on them to come in so I can verify they're good to go. Once they do, I'll send out all campaign rewards. As stated before, the stretch goal is still in the works.

Cheers,
Benjamin

Proofs Came In!
10 months ago – Thu, Apr 17, 2025 at 01:36:21 PM


So the softcover looks great, but the hardcover needs some tweaks. Not sure if something got changed or if adjustments were made on the printer's end, but I'll need to sort that out with them starting today. Over the next week, I'll be looking through the book for any other issues or misprints.

Barring anything else popping up, I'll be locking orders on Friday April 25th. That way I can add the backer names to the book and get the final files off to the printer. Once the final files are approved, I'll send out POD codes, PDF download codes, as well as add-ons. The stretch goals are still being worked on, but I hope to have those done in May/June.

Cheers,
Benjamin

20% of Surveys Left!
11 months ago – Sun, Apr 06, 2025 at 10:01:26 PM

Hey folks!

Still need the last 20% of people to fill out their surveys so I can get the backer names in the book and get rewards out to people. So if you haven't done so already, please get your survey completed and submitted. Thanks! :)

Cheers,
Benjamin

Surveys Coming Soon!
11 months ago – Wed, Mar 26, 2025 at 08:36:00 AM

Hey folks!

I've got BackerKit running over my backend configuration now to make sure the survey is setup correctly and the returning backers, early backers, and cross-collab backers are going to get their promised extras. I'm hoping to send out the surveys later this week.

The initial print files were approved by the printer which is good! I ordered proofs this morning and should get them in a few weeks. Apparently there are some delays with the printer due to supply chain hiccups, so I won't get the books out before that April 1st deadline like I was hoping, but I'll do my best to get them out to you as soon as possible still. The PDF will go out once the surveys come in and I can add the PDF to your digital downloads section of BackerKit.

The stretch goal we unlocked, Ghost Train Blues, is in the works. I hope to have it done by this summer along with the expanded bestiary even though we didn't quite hit that goal. You were amazing to support me so I want to return the favor.

And that's all for now! I'll let you know if anything changes in the near future, but for now just keep an eye on your emails for those surveys. Talk soon!

Cheers,
Benjamin

Listing Issue on DriveThruRPG
12 months ago – Mon, Mar 10, 2025 at 06:51:43 PM

Hey Everyone,

Just a quick apology. I was setting up the listing on DriveThruRPG for Lead and Chrome in order to get the proofs into the approval process and it was accidentally set to live. This shouldn't have happened until AFTER backers got their copies. I checked and only a couple copies were sold, but even still, you all should be the first ones to get it. I'm sorry about that. In my rush to get this thing proofed and available before the April 1st price hikes on POD titles, I must've made a mistake along the way.

Thank you for understanding.
