Kickstarter [Kobold Press] The Labyrinth Kickstarter is LIVE!

A Wild and Wondrous Week: Beadle & Grimm's and 2 Unlocks!

The last week has certainly felt big to the kobold crew!

Here's a review of all the exciting things backers have unlocked this past week, and details on the Beadle & Grimm's GM Vault.

UNLOCKED: 5 More Monsters
Designer Richard Green is bringing new worlds and factions to the Labyrinth, and his track record with Kobold Press is deep, including adventures, NPCs, and monsters in dozens of Kobold Press titles.

UNLOCKED: Maze Runner, a level 7 adventure
A minotaur elder uncovers a path to an ancient city thought lost to the ever-changing will of the maze. With her help, the party must navigate unstable portals and pathways to reach a legendary temple at the city’s heart. Can our heroes solve the temple’s puzzles, face its guardian, and claim its treasure—before the city is erased from reality forever?

Kelly Pawlik's design experience is vast, from Deep Magic for 5E to Tales from the Shadows and Tales from the Wastes to multiple Warlock contributions, including the joyful three-part Fowl Play farm adventure.

Beadle & Grimm’s joins Kobold Press to create the official GM Vault for Labyrinth!
The officially licensed Labyrinth GM Vault contains all the elements a Game Master needs to create an amazing experience for their players. Make this adventure the one your gaming group will remember forever.

The Labyrinth GM Vault is packed with exclusive, immersive gaming items, including:

• 6 BATTLE MAPS: A hallmark of Beadle & Grimm’s boxed sets are the beautifully rendered battle maps, and the Labyrinth set continues that tradition with 6 full-color, scaled-for-minis battle maps for the biggest boss fights. All are created by B&G cartographers and are unique to the GM Vault.
• 10 GM MAPS: We’ve included separate 8.5x11 versions of the most important GM maps for easy reference and annotated them with an at-a-glance Map Key to all the areas.
• 15 IN-WORLD HANDOUTS: The Labyrinth is full of puzzles, letters, maps, and clues. Instead of describing them to your players, hand them an artist-rendered, full color creation!
• LABYRINTH GM SCREEN: This unique screen has adventure art on the outside to immerse your players in the world, and Labyrinth-specific reference guides on the inside to aid the GM.
• 30 ENCOUNTER CARDS: Share the campaign setting’s new creatures with your players. Designed to rest on the top of your GM screen, these 30 encounter cards feature the new, gorgeous artwork from Kobold Press on the front, and stat blocks on the back for the GM’s easy reference.
• VTT TOOLS: All six gridded battle maps and all the handouts will also be provided as VTT-ready digital files!

Ready to join in, but want more? Scouting Party!
Just before the launch of the Labyrinth Kickstarter, the Kobolds held an AMA on Discord to give everyone a chance to ask questions about the book and to give the designers a chance to geek out on their fantastic work.

Sly Flourish talks about the Labyrinth Kickstarter!

Nice b&g tie ins, I enjoy their items like creature or encounter cards.

I like the $109 pledge for the world book and adventure hardcovers and PDFs but also the B&G stuff for just $125 for a total not including shipping for 234.

The B&G GM Vault is going to be super awesome!!

We unlocked a three new Lineages at $300K! Thanks to everyone for the support of the Enter the Labyrinth Kickstarter.

3 New Lineages Unlocked:

• Derro: These underground dwellers are known for being clever, stealthy, and quite nimble. We can’t wait to see how this strange and devoted society fits into your game.
• Saytr: It’s no surprise we would encounter these curious and fun-loving messengers of the gods amidst the pathways of the Labyrinth. What song will your Saytr play?
• Sydrean (Arcane): In this world between worlds, we find a new form of a familiar mystical being, harnessing a new type of power. Where does it originate? What will it look like?

There's still time to gain access to all of the Labyrinth's mysteries including 8 unlocked stretch goals, the exclusive GM Vault by Beadle & Grimm's, and more than 10,000 worlds for you to explore.
