Only if it hits 500 subscribers. Long way to go yet!

If you don't hit 500 subs what is the plan for the material you have planned for the Gazette? Will that end up going somewhere else into another supplement or will that become en5ider content?

I just joined up for the magazine so I'm hoping you hit your subs!

I think the first issue was funded as a Stretch Goal, but further installments of the publication would be issued on the Patreon's subs...

Could be wrong.

The first issue is a Kickstarter stretch goal and will be published for free whatever happens.

Yep got that. But if the subs don't hit 500 do you have plans for the material that would be going into future issues of the Gazette? I'm just curious as its a route for support going forward and it sounds like its all materials that wouldn't be covered in a big book release.

I'm not even going to consider planning anything at this stage. If we get the 500 subs, then I'll start planning. There isn't a pile of unused material lying around waiting.

Makes sense to me. I guess I'll just cross my fingers and hope we hit 500 subs. Thanks for the info!

I can tell you what I want to do. But this is all just hopes and dreams right now.

• ongoing support through the Gate Pass Gazette
• two big books a year.

For the latter, that would consist of:

• a fantasy cultural setting book written entirely by people from that culture
• a genre book, starting with future, then modern, etc.

We need to do what WotC isn't doing. They make adventures, so we don't need to. Their adventures will work with our game. We can do sci-fi, and modern, and cultures they aren't doing.

This sounds pretty promising, and something the game could use. For example, I would really be interested in a fantasy cultural setting based on Japanese cultural themes that was written by a Japanese team- as long as it didn't delve into anime tropes.

I'm interested to see your guys' take on a sci-fi setting, but I'm more inclined to homebrew those when the desire to play in one crops up.

I think the key for your continued success is to keep the system compatible with 5E- it gives you a built-in player base instead of trying to recruit from the outer reaches. If they come out with 5.5 or 6.0 version of the game, adapt LU to remain compatible while maintaining all the good stuff you've already added in. Just my 2 centavos.

Will the core books be going to regular retail channels?

We’ll happily sell books to any distributor or retailer while stocks last.
