an important point to note... It's important to note that KQ is a *gaming* magazine, and one focused primarily on Dungeons & Dragons 3.5 and beyond... (although, I seriously doubt that a good CoC pitch would get passed over.) But it's the "gaming" aspect that's important there. While they're...

Malcolm McClinton joins forces with Open Design to create artwork and the cover for Halls of the Mountain King! Come take a look and stay for the project. The OGL version is on target for a late June/early July release, and the conversion process to create a 4E version begins in just a few...

To be fair-- Open Design has been nominated, but it hasn't won an ENnie (yet!) for any one of the three projects that competed-- Castle Shadowcrag, Empire of the Ghouls, and Six Arabian Nights. Since last year, Open Design won the Diana Jones award and has produced Blood of the Gorgon (by Nick...

I should also note that if you sign up for Halls of the Mountain King, you can get it as the 4E conversion that will be done when the OGL version is complete. -Ben. -- Small but Fierce. Kobold Quarterly News Minion.

So we're in full playtest mode now, with drafts in hand for over half of The Halls of the Mountain King. There's still time to get in on this project, and participating in the playtests is a great way to make your voice heard even though you might have missed the initial brainstorming...

Don't just take my word for it: The Grand OGL Wiki: Wrath Of The River Kind -Ben.

From Wolfgang: "I’m happy to report that we’ve already seen a massive amount of design work, pitches, and discussion for the Halls of the Mountain King project. The dwarves of the Golden Citadel have taken on a history, great dangers threaten them, and I daresay we have a theme, a start at the...

Kobold Quarterly #8…one issue from two full years, and this magazine has matured wonderfully. The cover is gorgeous, but a little busy. I wouldn’t have had R.A. Salvatore’s name cut across the dragon like it does, but then I don’t have my own magazine. It has a smattering of advertisments...

I apologize if that's the impression, it's unintended. Let me be clear... I'm for Open Design. It can be OGL, it can be 4E, ... hell, I'd love for it to be Ars Magica 5E. But as Kobold Krier, I'm for Open Design, whatever the commission is. To be honest, I'm more comfortable designing in...

Fifty 4E patrons remained with the project, sufficient to confirm that there will not only be a conversion of the OGL adventure to 4E, but also the 4E Iron Gazetteer, with rituals, clan lore and rules, new equipment and magic items, and much more. If you were on the fence about becoming a...

This project is go! It has met commission and will begin development as an OGL project! There will be a 4E conversion and if there is sufficient support, a 4E Gazetteer featuring new rituals, clan lore and rules, new equipment and magic items, and much more. Details will go to 4E patrons by...

This project is just about ready to get the green light! OGL is in the lead, but there has been serious talk of a conversion for 4E and maintaining a 4E Gazetteer with paragon paths, rituals, items, powers and more. Once the project begins, the price for patronage will go up about $5, from...

It's more like "Purchase _Halls of the Mountain King_ and have the option of purchasing _Wrath_ at some point over the course of the patronage." _Halls_ is projected to ship in...June, iirc? So you'd need to scrounge up about $5.50/month to pick up _Wrath_ before the option disappeared. In...

At this point, it appears that OGL is slightly ahead and that the commission is 50% met. -Ben. -- Small but Fierce... Kobold Quarterly's Public Relations Minion.

Wolfgang Baur is happy to announce Open Design's 9th project: Halls of the Mountain King! Open Design has gone to cities, deserts, the underdark, castles, and more, but we've never done a traditional dungeon. (And we're never going to!) Instead, Halls of the Mountain King will be a very...

Disclaimer note: I was a senior patron and as such, I got to contribute to the Zobeck Gazetteer. Take that for what it’s worth. Zobeck weighs in at 50 pages, subtitled “an introduction to the free city.” It has some very pretty cover art and then dives into the material—the first half covers...

Disclaimer note: I was a senior patron and as such, I got to contribute and playtest portions of Wrath of the River King. Take that for what it’s worth. The first thing that hits you as you open it up is the front cover. It has a definite "Wild Things" vibe to it that's great. The fantastic...

First, I'll qualify this... I wrote the Dwarven Airships article, so I might be a little slanted in my praise... But! This issue continues to blow the doors off. It comes packed with 4 new Pathfinder monsters, 4 steampunked variants of OGL monsters, and two creepy templates befitting the...

I've been on board since #1, and it has only gotten better with time. With an option to get print and pdf you can't go wrong-- I, for one, like to read my issue on the go or on the can, and you can't do that with a pdf. The material's been great and it promises only to improve. Whether you...
