Hello Dreamers!
As promised last week, we are bringing you fresh news about the status of the 2nd wave production!
Today we also want to share with you the new, revised game manual and the language versions of one of the extra supplements that we developed and that will be physically added to the 2nd wave content – the Continuous Dream Mode 
So, without further ado, let’s go straight to the production details!
2nd ENG wave production
Things are looking pretty good! We are proceeding according to the timeline. Both plastic and paper production is ending, and we are starting with the quality inspection. If everything keeps going smoothly, we should be ready to start the assembly in the first weeks of January.
After that, we plan to have games ready for pick up from the factory around the end of the month! Below you can find the current estimated timeline and some newest pictures straight from the factory 








2nd wave LANG status
We are also happy to inform you that all the translations are being currently proceeded. We still have tons of content to be translated and proofread, and we don’t want to rush things to keep the highest quality possible. This is why we are very careful in giving approximate dates regarding the progress of work. Right now, we are cautiously assuming to be ready to finish the translation process at the end of Q1 2022.
Once we are a bit further in the work progress, knowing how efficiently we manage to move forward, we will present you with a more detailed timeline, with estimated dates when paper production should start/end and when shipping to hubs should begin.
Of course, we will make every effort to ensure that the time needed for translation is as short as possible. Still, at the same time, we promise you that our priority will be to provide you with the best quality product!
Manual 2.0
Time for the thing that you Dreamers have been waiting for – the new, revised game manual. We have created this version together with William Donovan, one of the creators of the praised community app (awakenrealms.com/etherfieldsapp)!
This new version will help you dive into the game for the first time easier. Also, it acts as a great rule reference if you’ve already played the game. It also answers some of the questions that the previous manual omitted.

Of course, its physical, printed version will be included in the 2nd wave content. Right now, we want to share with you the English file. Still, naturally, the manual will be translated and added to the respective 2nd wave language versions. We estimate to have it ready (other language versions) in the fall of January and February. Once they are finished, we will share them with you in one of our updates!
Of course, we would love to hear your feedback about this new version! 
Continuous Dream Mode – language versions
Since Wave 1 of Etherfields, we’ve gathered tons of feedback from all of you. We want to thank you for your involvement in the game! It let us make Etherfields an even better game than it already was.
And we have to admit that we are super excited to be able to provide you with some extra supplements!
Having that said, with the 2nd wave stuff, each backer will receive a special envelope with components that weren’t part of the crowdfunding campaign and have been developed after delivering the English 1st wave content to our backers.
In this special Etherfields 2.0 envelope, you will find:
- The Etherfields 2.0 manual
- Etherfields 2.0 Dreamworld map
- Power Nap Mode
- Save System
- Continuous Dream Mode
As we mentioned, everything listed above will be physical content included in the 2nd wave. As it took us extra money and effort than we didn’t include in our campaign estimates, we really hope that thanks to these extra added components, you will have a wider choice of how you want to experience the dream world of Etherfields 
Of course, some of them are recommended to use (i.e., the new, revised manual), and some are purely optional 
An example of that second option is the Continues Dream Mode that was first presented in update #49. Since then, we also analyzed your feedback, so as the rules are generally the same, some wording may have been polished here and there in the printed version 
So, today we bring you the language versions of this supplement!
Just before we share the files, we want to kindly remind you that if you’re interested in the whole Etherfields experience, we recommend playing the game without this component 
The Continuous Dream Mode shortens the time spent between Dreams, although it lessens the impact of Slumbers and the Dreamworld Map on your game. We recommend this mode to players who play Etherfields in longer gaming sessions consisting of several Dreams.
We don’t recommend this mode to players new to the game and those whose sessions consist mainly of one Dream.

Before you decide to use this mode, we have several tips on how to approach Slumbers in your Etherfields games:
- When you start your gaming session, your characters aren’t “built” yet – you must place some progress cards, gather shining gems, and gain several Ether markers. Slumbers are perfect for that.
- If you’re not prepared to face them, some Slumbers can be often Skipped – and the Skip cost is usually lesser than playing the full Slumber.
- If you know what Deliverance is (if not, you’ll discover it sooner or later), try understanding what you’re facing and then act accordingly to your knowledge. It may help you with getting rid of the most unwanted Slumbers.
- Time your victory well – if you win during the right Turn, you may gain the Loot you need, such as curing Distress or acquiring Ether.
Before we say sweet dreams, let us thank you for being with us this year and wish you a wonderful upcoming holiday!
