The first production test model of Fierce Phantos, unpainted...

That looks great!

**Glasstor** · May 24, 2021, 02:39pm

It’s beautiful!

**Ghost of Vapor** · May 24, 2021, 07:33pm

Thanks guys! They have shipped it out from the factory for final approval before moving forward, so I’m excited to see it up close and in person.

Also, the first draft of the novel is very close to finished.

The theme song to the novel, written and performed by Stan Bush, is just amazing! Hear it here: https://youtu.be/iU1gztFl0F4

So heroic and legendary! I kinda want a 7” record of it to sit next to my The Neverending Story 45 (and others). Fits right in with many other classic theme songs.

Clearly it's still 1985 in Stan's world, lol.

That would be amazing... a record of this song!

And for that I am thankful... the music is phenomenal!

Well, if the intent was to create a new song that sounds as 80's as possible, then he succeeded admirably

Excellent! That was indeed the intent, as the novel takes place in ‘87 - ‘88.

It will be back up soon. I set it to private until Stan launched it on his own channel, site, etc.

have you ever thought about making Order of Cosmic Champions into a ttrpg?

i think the systems perfect for it are FATE/FUDGE, Powered by Apocalypse , Tiny D6, Savage Worlds, Dungeon Crawl Classics, and the AGE system.

I had not thought of that, but it is definitely an interesting idea.

yeah the lore looks like it belongs in one . what ruleset or system would be perfect for an Order of Cosmic Champions TTRPG?

I thought this was a really cool image... an artist's rendering of a battle scene in the novel:

A Cassette! Yes!!! I hope you make some of these available. I’m kinda really excited! Can’t wait to read the novel!

EDIT: now I see it’s a flash drive that looks like a cassette. Very cool. Now I want a cassette, though!

**Ghost of Vapor** · July 19, 2021, 02:57pm

Ha! Yeah I figured more people would have a use for a USB drive than a cassette, but I wanted that aesthetic.

The faux intro for Order of Cosmic Champions™ is up on YouTube now!

**Glasstor** · July 23, 2021, 01:42am

Wow. What an intro! Love the use of the old tv and channel surfing. Really fun intro scenes! I’m hooked.

**Mikey** · July 23, 2021, 02:42am

I haven't checked up on all the updates yet, but I look forward to it. Keep up the great work!

Thank you Mikey! We are working hard on everything to come.

Recently received a Fierce Phantos figure production sample like that which will be sent off to the lab for child safety testing:

We have a final draft! Now we are preparing to send out the manuscript to publishers and agents. Stay tuned!
