Está todo muy inestable, hoy las bolsas suben... Hasta dentro de un tiempo no sabremos en qué queda esto

A mi peor enemigo le recomendaría lanzar ahora un mecenazgo o haberlo hecho en un tiempo reciente. Pero al hilo de tu pregunta anterior, Entro, el problema es que hay una industria que se hizo desaparecer en aras de abaratar costes y se acudió al mercado internacional. Que no digo que eso tuviera que ser bueno o malo, pero es que alguien ha decidido volarlo todo.

Hoy nos levantamos con una moratoria de 90 días a capricho (chocazo con la realidad) del Rey de Naranja. Así no se puede planificar nada.

La misma Chaosium está temblando con el juego de tablero del Orient... Pareciera que todo lo relacionado con ese tren esté maldito.

Tariffs, Uncertainty, and Our Commitment to You

posted on Sun, Apr 13, 2025

by Pelgrane Press

Hey everyone,

I’ve been holding off on this update in the hope that we’d reach more certainty on tariffs, but it doesn’t look like that’s going to happen any time soon. Here’s where things stand as at today for this project.

Since 2022, we’ve been printing our hardback books in Lithuania with the fantastic Standart Impressa, and splitting our perfect bound book print runs between a number of companies in the USA and UK.

As a result, Pelgrane Press shipments will not be affected by tariffs on Chinese imports into the USA, although - if books are not exempted, which a number of authorities believe they will be - Pelgrane shipments will be impacted by tariffs placed on EU goods coming into the USA (currently at 20%, but with a 90-day pause).

One thing I know we will be impacted by is the effect of those tariffs on the cost of raw materials, such as ink, paper, packaging, and fuel. It’s too soon to predict the full extent of that impact - the tariff war is ongoing and evolving as I type - but I’m guessing our production costs will have increased at least 10% by the end of the year.

We will be monitoring the situation closely, talking with our suppliers, and working through what changes we can make to mitigate these rising costs - such as holding back on new products, moving older products to print on demand only, and offsetting the shortfall with more crowdfunding campaigns - but I suspect these increases will be more than we, as a small company, can afford to absorb, and the worst-case scenario is that we will need to pass these price hikes on to consumers.

My intention is to honour the pledge levels and add-ons you have been quoted, and absorb any cost increases we incur during the printing of these books. The cool stuff you picked up during this campaign will not change in price during this campaign, but will almost certainly increase in price before it is available to non-backers.

Due to vast fluctuations in shipping costs since 2020, we’ve made it a policy to delay quoting and charging for shipping until we are ready to start fulfilment. I hope to be able to honour the shipping estimates we quoted during the campaign, but if there are unprecedented rises in shipping costs due to the ongoing trade war, we might have to increase those costs.

We haven’t yet committed to a printer for Trail of Cthulhu Second Edition, Boundary of the Darkness, and the GM screen. I’m currently sourcing US-based printer recommendations from tabletop industry colleagues, and my current plan is to compare the increased cost of splitting the print run (that is, printing the US & Canadian books in the USA, and all the other books in the UK, where they’ll be distributed from) with the cost of printing everything with our trusted print partner in Lithuania and shipping from the EU into the USA.

We'll work this out. Somehow.

Vi esto...pensé que era un escenario, se me hizo duda, ya que aprendí que CoC la gente prefiere ambientaciones en los años '20...luego me dijeron que era un "setting", pero asumo que vienen escenarios ahí. Se supone que está en el Japón de los 1980, lo cual inevitablemente me recordó a ese escenario de Fontenebra en los ochenta...

Yo por alguna razón desde que empecé a leer a Lovecraft nunca vi que fuese imposible o viable escribir relatos contemporáneos, lo mismo para el rol. No obstante, me di cuenta que la gente no piensa así...

Three New Scenarios

The book contains three all-new scenarios that are suited to stand-alone play, or strung together as part of a larger campaign set in 1980s Japan.

Dream Eater:

The investigators are called to a district in Ikaruga town after cases of sleep paralysis, lethargy, and depression skyrocket—and all cases reportedly include visions of the same strange creature.

Fanfic!:

When the inspiration behind an upcoming action manga is proved to have nefarious origins, the investigators must intervene before widespread publication causes unparalleled damage to reality.

The Pallid Masks of Tokyo:

The corpse of a gang member is discovered in Shinjuku—but its face is devoid of all features. The investigators are drawn into the mystery and must attempt to find the source of, and stop, a rash of faceless gangsters across the city.

Pues ya veremos qué tal, pero los escenarios molan tres puñados.
