Quickstart rules are a great way for a group to dip their toes into a new system without spending tens of dollars or wrapping their heads around 300+ pages of new esoterica.

IndieGoGo, GameOnTabletop, GameFound, ItchFunding, BackerKit, and Crowdfundr as well as Kickstarter, so many choices to run an RPG crowdfunding campaign on. I have to dig deep to discover all of the RPGs crowdfunding at any given time. From these options, I prepare a sampling of what’s out there for tabletop RPGs. This week, I feature RPG projects that end between February 28th and March 3rd...

D&D gets nothing this week. I’m as surprised as you are. However, Dungeon Crawl Classics gets a new adventure and Traveller gets three new adventures that work with the Mercenary Box Set. Dyson also has magic swords for your d20 fantasy. More adventures: a train assault for Achtung! Cthulhu 2d20 and a film crew stalked by TerrorHog for Crawlspace.

Sure, they call them Starter Sets these days, but a lot of companies are reviving the tradition of peeling off the plastics and cracking open a few evenings worth of roleplaying.
