Hello Argonauts!
We did it! Working as a crew, more than 975 backers came together to help fund the development and production of Trinity Continuum: Aegis, a brand new rules and setting supplement for the Trinity Continuum tabletop RPG.
And there's more to celebrate! Not only did we fund this project (in just over 9 hours!), but we also unlocked a variety of fun Stretch Goals. From some standard Onyx Path milestone markers to a brand new supplement for the team to develop and write, we've come together and hit just about every Achievement target that had been set up!

Additional and Expanded Content Supplement
That's pretty great! That's pretty inspiring! But what more could I'd expect nothing else from Trinity Continuum players and fans?!
Despite a few decades history and a new edition relaunch back in 2018, it's always a trip into the unknown when a new setting is introduced for the Trinity Continuum. Straying from the three "classic" eras has been exciting and bold and unpredictable, but I'm so happy to see the Continuum Community come out again to support these projects and expand this game line. I remember Ian sharing vague notes and ideas about Aegis back when the Trinity Continuum crowdfunded the core book and Æon in 2018, and it's sort of amazing to see rumors and rough ideas fully manifest just six years later.
SEVEN STRETCH GOALS
That's excellent. I mean, we were at six just yesterday! Always awesome to unlock one final Stretch Goal as we head into the final day.
Those celebrations and milestone markers along the way are fun - I certainly like having something to mark our accomplishments during the campaign and they help keep the enthusiasm up. But I really really love when we can add additional content, especially an a chance for the writers to travel around the globe a bit to show us what else is going on in that era, as well as the opportunity to expand on some of the locations and people that could use more space than the book would hold.

And all of that is, of course, on top of our main purpose here - the creating of the actual book itself! This is the real reward - everything else is a bonus!
So a huge congratulations to the creative team on this project, and to all of the backers who've joined in to make this possible. I'm happy about the goals we hit and rewards we introduced, but I'm also always amazed and excited about having more than 975 backers join in during this campaign. The Trinity Continuum is alive and well, and I'm looking forward to exploring the world presented here and hearing about others doing the same!
AN EXTRA THANK YOU!
So, thank you to all the backers who supported us and made this happen. And an extra thanks to everyone who participated online, either in the Community comments section of the campaign, and on social media around the web. Thanks to everyone who talked about the project on the Discord and in the Onyx Path forum, and thanks to the Onyx Path team who answered questions and provided insight.
COMMUNICATION
So, as noted in today's earlier update, I'll be sending out updates once a month and whenever we've got a new goal, survey, or other item to cover. If you have any questions or need clarification on something related to the campaign, feel free to get in touch. I may take a bit to answer as I recover from these past three weeks, but I'll eventually have an answer!

ONYX PATH DISCUSSION CHANNELS
If you've got questions about the rules or setting, or just want to discuss this game with other fans (as well as the Onyx Path writers and developers!), you can check out these Onyx Path discussion zones:
The Discord is particularly lively, and I loved seeing the detective work put into the mysteries of Aegis even as the first chapters and fiction pieces were being posted. Some very clever members in this community!
BackerKit will begin collected pledges and processing payments later tonight, so be ready for that.

Now to attend to other business and eventually collapse for a few hours and recover from the awesomeness of the last couple days! High fives in the comment section, and you'll hear from me again in September when we start the survey process and launch the Pledge Manager!
