    Kickstarter Tome of Beasts 2 Kickstarter Launched! D&D 5E

    Patrons definitely get to submit monsters this time around! Would not be a Kobold Press project without some kind of competitive submissions and playtest!

    Kickstarter Tome of Beasts 2 Kickstarter Launched! D&D 5E

    Some are indeed realworld names from folklore, and some are just oddball names in the D&D tradition, just like "illithid" or the like. I agree that some don't roll off the tongue quite as readily as others! Wolfgang

    A Look Inside Ghosts of Saltmarsh: Contents, Saltmarsh Map, & More

    We looked at the 3.5 DMG II, but the Saltmarsh described there is not of a struggling fishing village with smugglers and swamps abounding. This take on Saltmarsh sticks with the U series tone for a fishing village, without the Victorian bits of the DMG II take.

    Kobold Press' Warlock Gaming Zine

    You know, I have gotten that request often enough that I am going to make that category happen. The Warlock Ethereal tier is now available, and digital only. I could go for an Astral Warlock tier at an even higher, all-digital level, but first I want to see whether the non-print side gets a...

    RPG Crowdfunding News 074: Dragon Kings Player’s Rulebook, Changeling The Lost 2nd Edition, Aventuri

    That timing makes a LOT of sense, noting things during the lull or closer to last call. Thanks for listing these, I know I've caught word of several projects this way that would have been off my radar otherwise.

    Whoops, missed a big one! Or maybe we just missed the cutoff this week. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/350683997/creature-codex-5th-edition-monsters-including-comm/

    Kobold Press Launch Patreon For 5th Edition Booklets

    I guess my reaction is "One experiment at a time." We just finished a big Pathfinder Kickstarter, and now we're figuring out how things are going for 5th Edition Patreon. Though if we were going to consider one for 2018, it might be Starfinder.

    Kobold Press Launch Patreon For 5th Edition Booklets

    Going to politely disagree with MNblockhead here; this won't work as a Kickstarter. I've seen Kickstarters for ongoing support material, but they always look weird, like "Support the next 3 issues for $30" or the like. I think Patreon is the *perfect* way to generate additional material for 5E...

    Starfinder Starfinder News From PaizoCon - Core Rulebook, Races, Guns, Alien Archive

    I am in the unfortunate position of not having played it directly. But what interests me about it is two things: 1) You can throw the party into starship combat immediately, that is at level 1 2) the system uses roles to give everyone something to do, not just a pilot and a gunner My own...

    Starfinder Starfinder News From PaizoCon - Core Rulebook, Races, Guns, Alien Archive

    I gotta sit closer next year. But yeah, the Starfinder system and space combat in particular look really, really interesting.

    Kobold Press' MIDGARD Campaign Setting For 5E & Pathfinder

    And WOW, we just hit our second stretch goal of the day: the Star Citadel and the Void Lore section added to the Midgard Campaign hardcover. Very nice addition to the Deep Magic: Elemental Magic that we added earlier today, and the Bearfolk options from last night. Lot of great momentum heading...

    Kobold Press' MIDGARD Campaign Setting For 5E & Pathfinder

    Yes, we actually heard from an Australian partner that might help bring shipping to Australia/NZ down a little, but it's a lot of additional logistical complexity for a fairly small savings. We just haven't cracked the overseas shipping nut as well as we'd like.

    Kobold Press' MIDGARD Campaign Setting For 5E & Pathfinder

    We took your advice and made a new mockup! It's landscape, and 4 panels. Take a look.

    Kobold Press' MIDGARD Campaign Setting For 5E & Pathfinder

    Yes, seems like Bearfolk will work well for all those options. Lots of expansion for them to include racial variants and probably some spells or rituals unique to the race. EDIT TO ADD: Thank you for your support, Arjomanes!

    Kobold Press' MIDGARD Campaign Setting For 5E & Pathfinder

    If you own the Pathfinder version of Deep Magic, this isn't a reprint of that. However, the Player's Guide includes new ley line magic, new shadow magic, and new elvish magic for Pathfinder, plus domains and mysteries and inquisitions and the like. The goal around the Deep Magic effort is...

    Kobold Press' MIDGARD Campaign Setting For 5E & Pathfinder

    Sure, the Heroes Handbook is compatible with 5th Edition of the world's first RPG, and the Player's Guide for the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game. EDIT TO ADD: Whoops, already answered!
