We're almost there! I'm waiting on a few pieces of artwork to round out the book, and then I'll be sending you the PDF and the book will go to the printer.
I'll be sending you one last survey via kickstarter. In it, I'll want to know what name you want to be listed as a backer in the book, and I'm also going to need the email address you use on DriveThruRPG.
Please fill this out as soon as possible.
Thanks for your time!
March 1 Update: Layout/Art issues

Hi everyone,
I know I said it would take about a week and a half to get this ready, but I'm finding some holes in the layout. Some areas need a few extra pieces of artwork to preserve continuity, and I'm also running into some issues with the formatting. Pages aren't setting like they should, headers have some strange artifacts, etc...
This has been a pretty big project, total development of the book has been over a year, with major revisions along the way. In the end, I'm very happy with all of the content. I think the rules, character options, and everything else will greatly enhance your games involving Hell and demons. The Bestiary alone is about 40 pages, which brings me to the final page count. It's looking like the book is going to be 176 pages in length, so that's a huge expansion of the 128 pages I estimated!
Once I get everything in place, I'm going to pass it along to another person for the final layout; Basically he goes in, tweaks everything I did to make sure it's solid. Please be patient, we're very close now.

February 1: Update: Issues with the Corruption rules
about 10 years ago

Hi everyone.
I'm having some issues getting the corruption rules to the point where I'm comfortable publishing them, and I would prefer to release them in a small supplemental pdf that will be sent out.
Right now the corruption rules just don't feel like anything more than a straight up mechanic that ends with your character being removed from play. I don't know that I like systems like that. I'm working with Richard Woolcock to hammer out some variations on the rules that aren't so extreme.
In other news, more artwork has come in, and I'm sending the vast majority of the book to Ed Wetterman for final edits. I'm wrapping up a few new races. I've decided to add Fallen Angels into the mix, and I want those to be pretty interesting.
I think you're going to love this book.

Hi everyone, I hope all is well with you.
Most of the writing is finished. I'm waiting on a couple of sections to be turned in. Everything we have written (a lot) is going to my second editor before layout. I've ordered more artwork to flesh out sections of the book, which brings me to the size.
It's looking like the book will be larger than the estimated 128 pages. I won't know the exact page count until I get into layout, but I think you'll be happy with the extra material!
More updates to come.
