Jaws of the Lion back in stock for US/AU, soon for EU/UK and elsewhere

Sorry for the slightly spammy post, but I had a few people that wanted me to let them know when JOTL was back in stock but I lost track of who they were. Therefore, I just wanted to post here that JOTL is back in stock at Cephalofair.com and likely other retailers shortly.

As of now, Frosthaven should be not far behind, and Buttons and Bugs and Merc Packs are trending towards early fall. (As well as the Pub Crawlers release)

(Minis/RPG still slated for December-February fulfillment)

Fungal Monk preview will go up tomorrow, here are all the card teasers for it so far

Three of these will be going up later today on Instagram, so you can see them here first. The others were shown previously on social media and in the three previews so far.

The Fungal Monk preview should go out Wednesday to the insider newsletter, and then up on social media Thursday.

Sign up for the insider newsletter here: https://mailchi.mp/cephalofair/insidersnewsletter

EDIT: Quick context so it's not confusing: Cephalofair has announced Pub Crawlers, an expansion to Buttons and Bugs. The articles above preview the expansion. It includes two new classes, the Fungal Monk and the Whistlecry. This week's preview (which will go out tomorrow if you're subscribed to the Insider Newsletter and otherwise go up Thursday on social media) will look at the Fungal Monk, so this post is recapping the various teaser cards that have bene shown in previews so far. Hope that helps!

Just wanted to put this quote from Cephalofair COO Julie Ahern out there as we head into Gen Con

A few quick things:

  1. This is from Julie's interview with Board Game Quest interview in May. Check it out at: https://www.boardgamequest.com/a-chat-with-julie-ahern-cephalofairs-new-coo/
  2. I just wanted to surface this quote for people to see as we head into Gen Con and as the Mercenaries Wanted name has now leaked: https://www.reddit.com/r/Gloomhaven/comments/1uyg471/new_game_name_announced_mercenaries_wanted/
  3. This image will be going up on Cephalofair social media this weekend but you get to see it first here. :)
  4. For absolutely no reason I'll also just post this quote from Price two Backerkit updates ago:

>But smaller projects are quintessential from a business perspective and for us as a publisher. They help us cover overhead in between larger releases, support our game designers & staff, and drive ongoing retailer interest in our backlog catalogue. This is why, as a publisher, we have projects in all stages of development, even if they’re not the things on our immediate internal plates. 

>And why can you excitedly expect more things from us in the future.

TLDR: Game company will. surprisingly, continue to make games!

Pub Crawlers preview #3; New conditions (Rot, Grounded) and new enemies (Gloomnewt, Yeast Ooze)

This went out on the insiders newsletter yesterday and up on social media today, so just passing it along here in case you haven't seen it.

I should clarify that there are more than two new enemies in the game, I just thought these two were kinda cool.

Grand Festival Pledge Manager is back open, let me know if you run into any issues

The most recent Cephalofair Backerkit update had mentioned the Pledge Manager re-opening last Friday. However, an issue on Backerkit's end delayed that from being opened until now. It should now be open for anyone who wants to access it.

https://www.backerkit.com/c/users/pledges

If you didn't back the campaign but want to late pledge the RPG or minis, you can do so here:

https://gloomhaven-rpg.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you want to change your address, you will need to email support at support@cephalofair.com !

Here is what Price wrote about it last week:

>-FINAL PLEDGE MANAGER OPENING

>With Gloomhaven RPG and Miniatures of Gloomhaven projects entering mass production, we will be reopening this FINAL WAVE pledge manager on Friday, July 10th, and these will remain open for approximately one month (closing date to be announced in a following update). 

Some important notes on this final wave of pledge manager:

>Address: If your shipping address has changed please make sure your address is current and up to date now. To avoid any re-shipping fees or lost pledges, don’t wait until fulfillment is about to start! 

>Add-ons: This is your last chance to add any additional add-ons to your pledge 

>Pricing: The pricing for add-ons will be updated to reflect final production costs and retail pricing. This does NOT impact prior pledge discounts.

>Deadline: We will be leaving the pledge manager open for at least the next 30 days and will give at least 2 weeks prior notice to closure in an upcoming backerkit update.

Major Worldhaven update from Any2cards

In a BGG post made today, Any2Cards, who runs Worldhaven, just posted the following:

>Well, I am extremely pleased to state that on Wednesday, June 3rd, 2026, Price reached out to me. He, on behalf of Cephalofair, has agreed to extend my license agreement, in order to support the additional assets which I requested. Specifically, I asked for access to the following:

>- Bugs & Buttons
- Frosthaven 2nd Printing
- Gloomhaven 1st Edition (some of the assets I have are lost / corrupted)
- Gloomhaven 2nd Edition
- Forgotten Circles 3rd Printing
- Mercenary Packs

>and finally, when it is actually completed:

>- Gloomhaven RPG

>Please understand that this is going to be a very lengthy undertaking:

>- First, Price and his legal team has to provide me the license update and we have to get all the i's dotted and t's crossed, and the document signed / counter-signed.
- Once that paperwork is completed, Cephalofair has to gather all of the assets for all of these games and provide them to me.
- Then I have to actually process all of these assets.

>What does all of the above mean? Time. Lot's of time. Patience. Lot's of Patience. Work. Lot's of Work.

>I turn 85 on July 6th of this year. My mind is still reasonably sharp, but sometimes the signals it sends the rest of my body get's returned to sender. 

NOTE: Any2Cards said they rarely use Reddit, so the BGG post will be where they will post updates to this if you would like to follow along with that. Any questions for them should be posted over there also.
