I can't wait to finish it and release it! Easily the best thing I have ever done (as it should be given 5 years on and off). The art is unbelievable. The game mechanics are tight. The new stat-blocks are so much fun! The sheer EPIC craziness is off the charts. Thirteen new Planes introduced...

Howdy Impeesa amigo! :giggle: Drivethru take 30% (with exclusive rights) and 35% if they are not the sole seller. They are the #1 online RPG pdf retailer, so I don't have a problem with their cut. At the same time if I could set that up on my website I could offer it at a slightly lower price...

Hey amigo! The current build is 416 pages. Looking at current pricing (of other books in Kickstarters and on Drivethru) I'll probably have to price it around $34.95 (pdf) and $69.95 (physical)...maybe $99.95 for the Limited Edition version with the gilded page edges and other stuff. For the...

(Just got my new Monitor working 5 minutes ago!) :love: Hard to say without knowing more about these figures. You generally need to know who have they fought/defeated or who fears them or who prays to them, etc.

Definitely Expertise in the procrastination Skill...to my shame. Almost certainly. Any system with comparable spell damage (of non-epic spells) should be a good fit. Initially I was trying to match the spell levels of the old 1st/2nd. Editions. Like Karsus Avatar, etc...and indeed a spell for...

Cheers amigo. I appreciate the love...and most of all, the patience. Crawling to the finishing line. Progress was going decent until my monitor blew Sunday afternoon (replacement arriving Thursday). But it has given me a chance to go over the 82 Epic Spells and see if I am missing anything...

The best resource for interplanar rivalries (IMO) are the Gary Gygax "Gord the Rogue" series of books. I suggest getting those on ebay.

Interesting stuff (coincidentally I was working on a CR 24 Ancient Red Dragon stat-block today to show off my own changes to stat-blocks for the book). My initial thoughts on your dragon would be maybe there is too much for the GM to remember - but I know you love your big stat-blocks. Also I...

Labyrinth of Madness always came across as tough in a very unfair way. Whereas Nightmare Keep (IIRC) was still tough, but fair.

I got to 117th-level in AD&D; leveling back then was unlimited - though offered little boost after about 10th for most classes.

If that 5% (or whatever) is starving for content, then maybe they'll be more likely to 'bite' though?

Well they do say there's a thin line between genius and insanity. :giggle:

Aspirational Heroes (Superman, Thor) are not for everyone and cater more towards those positive idealists who see the glass as half full rather than half empty. They deliver uplifting stories featuring positive role-models. Tragic Heroes (ie, Batman, Spiderman) are certainly more relatable...

I agree its niche although I'd be surprised if a 5th Edition Epic Tier Handbook didn't sell better than certain other books they have released over the past few years.

Likely because its 100% fluff, 0% crunch and borderline unplayable. ...nice book though. Well D&D since Deities & Demigods* has always been happy to encroach into the realms of the immortals. That's where I cut my teeth. My method of implementing Divine Ranks flows seamlessly after 20th...

...and best of luck to you. I guess you can't please all the people all the time. Some people are interested though.

Why can't RPGs have it too? Making decisions, choosing to do the right (or wrong) thing IS character. Keep on the Borderlands says otherwise. I don't think it is harder, but it is more niche. So its not RPG material to write if you want to make money and appeal to a wider audience...

I agree. Which is why in my subsequent post I stated you still have to have those 'munchkin +10 swords": you still need the crazy epic monsters, ridiculous weapons and artifacts, higher dimensions to explore, insanely epic spells. That's where the fun lies. Not everyone wants to run their own...

Well I can advocate (in the book) that an Immortal Tier will be better if the Player has Worshippers on the Mortal Plane and a Divine Realm on another Plane of their choice and give all the rules for that. But I noticed when I did this back in my 3rd Edition - Immortals Handbook: Ascension book...

To which my first thought would be, but does it speak to lesser character development, or just the same? If its just the same then its not a valid criticism. Which is why I always suggest with greater power comes greater responsibilities. High Tier should add running a Stronghold. Epic Tier...
