PAX Unplugged Pickup ONLY!

You may be aware that we (Meeple Source) have represented Stonemaier Games at previous PAX Unplugged conventions, and 2026 will be no different! Pre-order your copy of Braided Skies and other popular products and ensure we will have them set aside for you to pick up at the show!

Pickup will occur at the Meeple Source / Stonemaier Games PAX Unplugged booth (#3151). If you may not be in attendance personally and someone else is going to pick it up for you, you can specific their name in the optional field below. If between now and December 1st you need to make a change to your pickup day and/or pickup person's name, you can email us at meeplesource@gmail.com to make necessary changes such as these. If this pre-order needs to be cancelled and refunded to you because you don't pick it up at PAX Unplugged (or cancelled for any other reason), we will have to deduct the card processing fee from the refund, as it is not returned to us either.

Braided Skies

In Braided Skies, you take on the role of an airship captain in the Shallows, seeking to build the greatest magical travel company in the Northlands. Your mission involves exploring land and sky for new wonders, upgrading your travel company operations, and picking up tourists—all while maintaining a steady supply of tapstones, the magical gems that fuel the Northlands. Accumulate fame to become the Commodore of the Clouds!

This is the first in a series of games set in the Smoking Bones universe created and illustrated by Andrew Bosley (Everdell, Tapestry, etc). This is a standalone, single-session competitive game (not a campaign or narrative game).

• Set sail on airborne drop ships to shepherd tourists and harvest tapstones from locations on an unlockable topographical map.
• Experience a strong sense of progression by adding outposts, crewmates, and harvesters, plus outfittings for powerful recall turns.
• Discover magical Wonders for instant benefits, track advancements, and ongoing benefits.

If you enjoy Lost Ruins of Arnak, Dwellings of Eldervale, or Galactic Cruise, we’re excited for you to play Braided Skies!
