Baronial badgers, vagabonds! Happy New Year!
We have some of the most exciting news and some hard deadlines, so let’s dive in!
Shipping Begins Soon!
Here’s some good news to start your new year with! Shipping will begin in the next few weeks for Root: Ruins & Expeditions! We are so excited for you to get your shiny new expansion and delicious math rocks! Once packages are starting to go out, we’ll post a new update letting you know when to expect a shipping email.
Shipping should proceed on these timelines per region roughly. These are estimates based on current progression and are subject to change. If anything changes, we’ll let you know with an update with regional information.
- USA: Begins around March 10th
- Canada: Begins around February 5th
- UK/EU: Begins around February 22nd
- Australia: Begins around February 5th
- Rest of World: Begins around March 17th
But before we can start shipping, we need to make sure your shipping information is up to date.
Addresses Locking
Because shipping is beginning soon, we need to lock addresses. Locking addresses in Backerkit means that you won’t be able to change your address directly once we lock it. We’ll be locking addresses on January 31st.
This means you have 10 days to update your address in Backerkit. To update your address, go to your Backerkit survey and update your address information within the survey. Updating your address information on your profile (rather than project specifically) will not update the address. It must be done in your survey.
Here’s a link to your Backerkit survey: https://root-the-roleplaying-game-ruins-and-expeditions.backerkit.com/
Address changes after the 31st can be sent to [email protected]but we cannot guarantee the change will be processed in time. Please ensure you update your address by January 31st if you have moved since filling out your Backerkit.
Gratitude from the Woodland
Our gratitude to all of you for your continued support! We are excited to have the books in hand and hear your tales of dungeon delving adventure with your vagabonds! We’ll be back soon as shipping begins!
End of Year Update!

Reckless racoons, vagabonds! We’re heading toward the end of the year and are excited for one final update before 2026 comes rushing in!!
Production Update
We know we said we’d return when we had an update from the printer. Turns out, printing a bunch of books takes awhile, and so the printer still isn’t done with all of the books we ordered. Once they’re done with the final book, those will be put on a ship and then we’ll have arrival information to share with you. So stay tuned! We should have more news next month!
Gratitude from the Woodland
Thank you, as always, for your continued support! We hope you have a wonderful holiday season and that your time is filled with great games, good food, and wonderful people!
Production Update!

Bucolic bunnies, vagabonds! Now that you have the final PDF, things are moving ever forward! Let’s talk about what’s going on now that the PDF is with you!
Production Update
Though this is a short update, we’re pleased to say that the book is with the printer and that production has begun. Printing can take several weeks and our printer will let us know once they are complete. From there, we’ll be able to get shipping information which will, in turn, provide an update on when you can expect your box of goodies.
Everything else on the project–such as the beautiful dice–are also in production. Much like the books, we’ll be waiting to hear from the production team on when the dice are complete before we can give you the most up to date information on when they’ll ship to us.
Gratitude from the Woodland
It’s wildly exciting to say we are simply waiting to hear when everything is on its way to us! We’ll return when we have updates on when the products will be shipping to us, and what the shipping plan should be like for when they reach us!

Egomaniacal eagles, vagabonds! Things are surely rolling! The final PDFs of Ruins & Expeditions, Clearing Booklet 2, and Clearing Booklet 3 are now yours!
Ruins & Expeditions Final PDFs
The time has finally come, vagabonds. The book is off to the printer, which means we have a bunch of final PDFs for you. And not just the PDFs! The files sent to you will be through DrivethruRPG so they’ll live forever in your games library!
In your digital rewards, you'll find a DrivethruRPG link. Please make sure you are logged into DTRPG first, then click the link. It will automatically add the book to your cart for free. Just check out and it’s yours! Once you check out, the game will be added to your game library and the files will be immediately available for you to download.
You can access your copy of the book in Backerkit by going to the following link. If your Backerkit isn’t complete, you will not have access to your digital downloads yet.

What a milestone, vagabonds! Of course the work isn’t done. Everything is printing, but that means we’re working on coordinating shipping and finishing up the VTTs! We’ll be back next month with any updates we have on shipping!

Cockamamie cats, vagabonds! We have some exciting news! Both the new book and Clearing Booklet 3 are now available for backers in preview!
Ruins & Expeditions Preview
It’s finally here! We’ve included a preview of the entire book for you to look through!
After releasing a number of the chapters for early review, this newest version is the FULL book, including all of the new rules for ruins, three completely new clearings, and revised versions of all of the chapters. Your notes were amazingly helpful. Thank you!
In addition to Chapter 5 (Ruins & Relics) and the new clearings, this preview also includes all of the playbooks with their full writeups in Chapter 4. Please take a close look at those—if something hasn’t been answered or addressed in that section, we’d love to hear about it.
You can access your copy of the preview file in Backerkit by going to the following link. If your Backerkit isn’t complete, you will not have access to your digital downloads yet.

Please have a look and if you see anything that isn’t quite right, like a typo or layout error, please send us your feedback! You can email feedback to [email protected] with “Ruins & Expeditions Feedback” in the subject line! Please send any feedback before September 5th.
Clearing Booklet 3 Preview
Not only are you getting a preview of the new supplement, but also of Clearing Booklet 3! Have a look through these amazing clearings you’ll get to add to your campaign!
While Clearing Booklet 2 was all clearings that had been previously released, Clearing Booklet 3 is all new adventures! One of the most fun parts of this book is the new faction matchups—Riverfolk Company vs. the Grand Duchy, the Hundreds vs. The Woodland Alliance, etc. We can’t wait to see what you think!
You can access your copy of the preview file in Backerkit by going to the following link. If your Backerkit isn’t complete, you will not have access to your digital downloads yet.

We’re so grateful for all your excitement and feedback and can’t wait to hear about what you think of the previews! From here, we’ll be integrating feedback after the 5th and then head into sending the files to print! We’ll see you next month with more updates!
