We missed the registration deadline for Gen Con Online this year, so the annual Magonomia Secret Society meeting will be extra secret this year! We’ve set it for July 24, the week before Gen Con.
Come join us to meet the publisher, learn about Magonomia, get an inside scoop on upcoming products and learn about playtesting opportunities!
Print orders for Magonomia® the TTRPG of Renaissance wizardry are back online after a week’s pause. Now we have the corrected and updated map of Enchanted England, plus other errata fixes.
The map of Enchanted England, version 1.2. Feel free to download, print, & share for non-commercial use.
If you purchased a print copy of Magonomia before today and you’re disappointed with the map, we offer you a copy of the corrected version for the cost of printing and shipping. This offer is valid for two years from today. Check your DriveThruRPG notifications for a discount code, or email service@shewstone.com.
Happy gaming!
Print sales of Magonomia® the RPG of Renaissance wizardry are currently paused. We’ve uploaded new digital content files to our print-on-demand partners including corrections to the Map of Enchanted England on p. 284. We’ve ordered proofs, which is publishing jargon for a print copy to make sure the printing came out right. Sales are on pause until the proofs are approved. We expect this will be 2-3 weeks.

We’re hard at work on our first full-length Magonomia® supplement, A Bestiary of Enchanted England. Writing and illustration is going well; in fact, a few of the authors and illustrations have completed all their assignments. You can see our progress in our last few months’ blog posts about product development. This is shaping up to be a truly unique bestiary, firmly grounded in sixteenth-century lore and enriched with role-playing advice and plot hooks for each creature.
We’ve decided to delay the crowdfunding launch of this project until Fall 2022. We want to get at least some playtesting done before we launch, and we didn’t account for that up front.
The overall production and release schedule isn’t affected much. We’ve just decided to get the product further along in development before the crowdfunding launch.
The silver lining is that there will be some playtesting events and you can sign up to be invited to participate.
We’ve tracked down the last few backers and sent out their rewards for the Magonomia® Core Rules project. If you’re a backer and haven’t received your rewards, please email service@shewstone.com.
Backers, you may be tired of hearing this, but thank you once again for believing in a big project from a first-time publisher. Your support kept us going through the ups and downs. You made magic happen!
