We're down to the last three days of Best Supporting Actors, which ends 9pm Central on Staturday, April 8. In today's update, I talk about the new retail pledge tiers, some discussion on the new cover - which is only $670 away, or about 13 pledges - plus a new preview of some of the higher...

Just some notes! 1. That sounds right. I'm rapidly approaching something like 40 books or so for TFT, 5e, Dungeon Fantasy RPG, and now OSE. The OSE one is very nearly done fulfillment. All the books I can ship are either shipped or staged to do so internationally. 2. Thanks. I like heavy paper...

Tooting my own horn a bit, but the Nightmare Fuel campaign has some "starter sets" that include the core rules, plus a bunch of monsters. Delvers to Grow is of course available as an add-on. The covers for the three new books are my somewhat whimsical placeholders. The new cover art will be...

For what it's worth, taxes knocked that down by $20,000 in 2021. There are oddities there in terms of me running on a cash basis rather than accrual basis, but I managed to probably eke out $30-40,000 in "transfer to the household" income after all was said and done in 2021. This is on a...

ARISE, OH THREAD OF DOOM! Just so folks are aware: The PDF was distributed quite a while ago. The books have been distributed to the rest-of-world customers, and the ship arrived in NYC and is being unloaded over the next week or so. Current projections, which go totally wonky at a moment's...

I will. There will also be pre-orders, so folks who missed the KS can get in at least on a la carte stuff.

HOLY MOTHER OF MEGAZON!! We just hit 192 pages https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/gamingballistic/nordlond-bestiary-and-enemies-book/posts/3380672 Dinosaurs next, ya know.

Not only did we pass it, but we're already over $48,500 ... and there are still over four hundred people following the campaign who have not yet backed. Finally, here's some cool imagery from the Foundry VTT module included in some of the pledges revealed in the latest update.

Update 35: Kickstarter Wonkiness - We May Have Passed 176 pages · Nordlond Bestiary and Enemies Book A generous backer just pumped in enough to push the project to 176 pages...but Kickstarter didn't allocate the full boost to the total. Another backer upped by $110 and that's not there either...

The Nordlond Fantasy Bestiary and Enemies book is now 160 pages, with 25 hours to go. It has surpassed The Citadel at Nordvorn in backer count, making the Bestiary the highest backer count of any Dungeon Fantasy RPG project I've run thus far. The next stretch goal for 176 pages is at $46,000 -...

Layout tweak, but deciding on white or beige background. Both should work with print since I like matte paper.

Where are we? Well, the short answer is about $600 or so from the next stretch goal at 160 pages. That gives us a bunch of nifty undead. After that? 176 pages: Dire Animals 192 pages: Demons and Slimes 208 pages: Animals and almost-humans 224 pages: Dinosaurs and Plants 240 pages: Human foes...

Your VTT Pack Just Got A Lot Cooler I was hoping to be able to announce this, and thanks to some great support by Steve, Phil, and Alain at SJGames, plus Nick and Nose doing simply fantastic work, now I can. What, then, is this about? Gaming Ballistic is thrilled to note that the "VTT Pack" is...

I chatted for a bit less than an hour yesterday with Barry Dewey-Robertson, who runs the Shadow of the GM podcast. He's a Patron of mine, and also running a Nordlond Actual Play campaign. In the podcast, he asks a lot of the key questions. Why a Bestiary? Why now? How portable? Share...

FUNDED! OK...what a big day was yesterday. Over $3,000 raised in a single day, making it the second-largest day of the campaign. Even bigger than the second day, which is traditionally carried over from launch day. So now it's about stretch goals. There are still 400 people who have...
