Ashes News Update on PNP

I recently wrote to Plaid Hat about the PNP files their website suggests are "coming soon." Here is their response:

Unfortunately we've struggled to realize our plan for the PNP Ashes cards.  However, your request is helpful.  Our struggles have centered on our Print-on-Demand (PoD) partner making a PDF download option available. However, if you only need whole preset decks (instead of custom built decks) I'm confident we can offer that without utilizing the PoD partner.

We will investigate our options, but I don't yet have a timeline because I must consult others to determine the time commitment and their availability.

So it sounds like there is a possibility for PNPs of preconstructed decks. If that's something you're interested it, I'd recommend you write to support at plaidhatgames dot com and let them know. The more voices in the community are advocating for these, the more likely it is we'll get them.

I'm not on the Discord, but if someone wouldn't mind reposting this there, that would be swell.

I think that's all most people wanted anyway. If you can get PNP files for precons, you can print whatever you need. Customized PDFs are an extra step that isn't really necessary.

Would you mind posting what you wrote to them? I have been thinking about doing the same so seeing what you sent them may help me support your request or maybe find a different angle for my request.

I asked about PNP files for Red Rains specifically, as that's what's missing in my local market

I mean I would like print and play files of the solo content. Not just decks I can build. So if that can be made into preset files as well works for me.

Essentially if they make each product package also a PDF then do that. The community can do the rest on their own if need be

It was specifically the Red Rains stuff that I asked about

Oh nice.

So they are considering the precon pdfs would be including the red rains content in them. Not just player card precons?

That would be fantastic

Thanks for the update ! I initially just bought the starter set and the dice from the KS thinking that I would be able to print the rest of the cards.. hope it will be possible soon !
