Excitement and explorers
🕑 Added 2022-09-05 15:00:51 +0000 UTCHi folks,
Wishing you the very best for the coming week from everyone at Rusty Towers!
Firstly, at the end of last week we shared an update on the Rusty Quill Gaming dice project on our Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. In case you missed it, we now have photographs of actual, physical samples of the dice! The final dice and box may look a little different from these; both Rusty Quill and the team at Dice Dungeon have given feedback and adjustments to the manufacturers – but even so, we’re blown away and so excited with how great these look. Something we really like that was suggested by the team at Dice Dungeon is the slot in the LOLOMG deluxe set’s box that is a perfect fit for the standard-sized tin that comes with the We’re Still Working on the Name set. Another cool suggestion from the Dice Dungeon team was the inclusion of small pieces of metallic foil within the resin of the LOLOMG deluxe set – you can see it in the sample photo below. This means each dice, once made, will be totally unique, adding variation and depth.

(Image description: A photo of a wooden box, with black velvet lining. There are two sets of dice contained - one in a glass, corked bottle, another in a large central compartment. There's also a tin slotted into the right-hand side. At the bottom is the text "this is a sample. Final products may vary.")
Nobles, thank you to those of you who have filled out our feedback document for Patreon exclusive events! If you haven’t yet, we’d love to hear from you, even if you weren’t able to attend. Head over to the main post on Patreon to find out more.
Something exciting to look forward to next week: new merch! Launching next Monday, we’ll be sharing a selection of merch designs on Teepublic and Redbubble from some of our wonderful RQ Network shows. We’re delighted to be expanding on our RQ Network offering, and give you easier ways to support your favourite shows.
Finally, this week on Trice Forgotten we have another fascinating episode of Below Decks. This time, creator Nemo Martin is joined by Sarah Pickman, a historian who specialises in the history of exploration, field collection, natural history museums and anthropology. Sarah provides some extraordinarily interesting insights into the real lives and experiences of sailors and explorers in the 19th century.
Here is our full schedule for this week:
Monday 5th September
SEAS Below Decks 3 – Nautical Collections in the 19thCentury (Patreon) (4pm BST)
Tuesday 6th September
SEAS Below Decks 3 – Nautical Collections in the 19thCentury (Public) (4pm BST)
Friday 9th September

Dice Dungeon has been *so* nice and accommodating when I asked some to change something about my order. Truly a great partner you've chosen. And I simply cannot wait to have those dice in my hands at last 😍😍😍
