I'm done with the towns for the second Just Passing Through. Just need to fill the appendix now. In the last book, I did a bunch of random NPCs and buildings. I've got a few more pages to fill this time, so I'm wondering what other sort of tables and stuff you'd like to see.

Just giving you a heads-up about where we're at fixing the FoundryVTT stuff, as well as everything else that's related to it.
Last year, Foundry updated to a v10 which created all sorts of headaches for Foundry. Originally, the person we had dealing with these issues had it handled, but then she left in October or so. We had someone come on part-time, and we'd hoped to get ...

Hey all,
We're still waiting on final art for this, but Badge Quest's words are done and ready for you to be read. You'll notice that there's still some stock art in the book as well as a few placeholders. Those will get changed (likely sometime next week or by the end of the month), but for now wait 'til Rick finishes up the rest of the interior art.

Sorry this took so long to get around to, but we're finally digging through the FoundryVTT packs and figuring out what the problem was. Something happened in our dropbox, which caused all the files to change their original destinations, making the URLs we were posting not work correctly. I've made this priority #1 to get it fixed, and we hope to have it all squared away by the en...
