Hey Everyone,
I have not forgotten you! Here is a much belated but up to date product update from KenzerCo HQ. Enjoy!
Kingdoms of Kalamar
Recent Releases:
Pekal Gazetteer - 64 pgs - $12.99
This Kingdoms of Kalamar world supplement is for DMs and players alike. It includes expanded information on the nation of Pekal. From the powerful College of Magic to the war with the Kingdom of Tokis, Pekal is in the middle of it all. Explore Bet Rogala, the capital city, and keep your wits about you as you become involved in the long-running intrigues of the various secular, political, subversive, magic and religious organizations of the realm. As this book includes character creation guidelines for the Living Kalamar™ campaign, it is ideal for learning about RPGA member driven organized play or for independent home use. The Pekal Gazetteer also includes two new Kingdoms of Kalamar adventures for use in any campaign!
Living Kalamar was a HUGE hit at ORIGINS this year, and looks to be even more popular at GenCon. This book is great for use in living campaigns or as a resource for Pekal in your home campaign. You won’t be disappointed with this one.
Upcoming Releases:
Villain Design Handbook - 176 pgs est. - $24.99 est.
ALL NEW! This Kingdoms of Kalamar supplement is perfect for the Dungeon Master who wants to easily create fantastic villains with detailed histories and motives. This is more than simply a book of NPCs! This handbook contains dozens of new villain archetypes that DMs can use as a foundation for creating their own villain, prestige classes, feats and anti-feats, as well as information on giving villains real motivations and obsessions, the criminal psychology of the villain, the villain’s place in society, building levels of intrigue, how to avoid common stereotypes, prestige classes, feats, anti-feats and more! A new Kingdoms of Kalamar adventure is also included!
The Villain Design Handbook has been significantly altered since the project started. Tons of cool content has been added, and it will really be a great aid for making villains that are memorable. In fact, I have incorporated many of the ideas into my HackMaster game, and it is designed for any D&D game. It was delayed because Wizards of the Coast had many comments that needed to be resolved, but it is now on its way and should be out in the beginning of August. An unfortunate delay, but well worth the wait.
Lost Tomb of Kruk-Ma-Kali – 96 pgs - $19.99
ALL NEW! The legacy of Kruk-Ma-Kali – a long-dead hobgoblin king – is still remembered throughout the lands of Tellene. Now, your players have the opportunity to search for Kruk-Ma-Kali’s lost tomb and locate the riches (and dangers!) within. But beware... it will take more than just a strong sword-arm to solve and survive the many puzzles and riddles of the tomb! This D&D adventure for 8th to 14th-level players is located in the Elos Desert, in and around the city of Dijishy and the Elenon Mountains, and gives players the opportunity to adventure in city, dungeon and wilderness areas. This adventure module also includes new monsters, new magic, and a special edition of ImageQuest, illustrating each and every room within the tomb!
Kruk should be back from the printer any day now. It is an awesome high-level adventure with tons of information. It should be a significant challenge for characters 8th – 14th level. After editing the adventure, I wanted to play it right away.
Kingdoms of Kalamar Atlas – 272-314 pgs - $29.99 est
ALL NEW! The ultimate RPG Atlas! For those with a love of maps and graphically presented charts, this is the book for you! Done in the useful style of a scholarly real-world atlas with plenty of graphs, charts, illustrations and maps, this supplement details the essential nature of the Kalamar world. One look and you will realize this is a book for the ages. Aside from zoomed-in, detailed topographical maps, this atlas defines each nations industrial, population and wealth concentrations, raw materials, imports and exports, military deployments and dialect languages. The Kalamar Atlas also defines coastal currents, seasonal winds, climate, temperatures, rainfall and vegetation. For use by players and DMs alike.
All I can say is, this book will rule. The maps look really good, and there will be more information than you can shake a stick at. The Atlas should be ready in early August, hopefully by GenCon.
HackMaster 4th Edition
Recent Releases:
HackMaster Player Advantage Character Record Book - 16 pages - $4.99 est.
ALL NEW! Don’t waste your time with those dinky one-page character sheets - pick up a copy of the official HackMaster Player Advantage Character Record Book instead! This full-size, 16-page book gives you a sheet everything you need, no matter what type of character you’re playing, with space for all the information on your family record, grudges, quirks and flaws, space for all your treasure and magic items, and much MUCH more! Also featuring a complete spell log and adventure log, as well as a new set of HackMaster player coupons!
The record book is a big hit. Every last detail is covered, from the location of your gear, to "The List" (as in, "You just made the list, buddy!"). Anyone that did not receive a sheet of coupons with their book and would like one can email Steve Johansson at steve@kenzerco.com. We apologize for the mix-up.
Upcoming Releases:
Spellslinger’s Guide to Wurld Domination - 96-112 pgs. - $19.99 est.
This is it! HackMaster’s complete guide to magic-users for BOTH players AND GameMasters! This thoroughly researched and finely crafted tome includes everything you ever wanted to know about the masters of this craft. Included are details concerning the eight magic specialists, over a dozen specialist sub-classes, spellware, ley lines, spell research, familiars, academies, magical organizations, background packs, careers, new spells (yes, including the ‘woeful’ spells) and much, much more than you can shake a wand at! Whether you profess to be the greatest spellslinger, or need to need to gird yourself for battle with such a power-wielder, this is the book for you!
When placed side by side with upcoming guides for other classes, the cover of this book will also form a hack-filled panorama!
After having written and edited a significant portion of this book, I want to run a magic-user in HackMaster more than ever. There are a huge number of new character options, great new quirks and flaws, priors and particulars, and a bunch of new spells. I can’t wait to see the printed version. It should be ready by GenCon.

Knights of the Dinner Table is the longest running comic book on the subject of games and gamers. The principal characters – B.A., Brian, Bob, Dave, Sara and the dastardly Black Hands play numerous characters in their role-playing games. But their essential characteristics and hilarious interactions always shine through whatever roles they’re playing. In addition to the comics, KoDT features articles geared to a gamer’s perspective. A fantastic and hilarious slice of (fantasy) life in strips.

WOW! It’s been 16 months since the last one. Here, as many of you have requested, is the compilation of Knights of the Dinner Table issues #25 through #27. This 96 page book also comes with approximately 20 pages of extra material. That’s almost like getting an extra KODT issue for free!
