From ULTRAMODERN5, on BACKERKIT Ultramodern5, A 5E Universal Sci-Fi Sourcebook + Campaigns & Adventures CIVILIAN Let’s be honest, most of us would fall into this category. Don’t be discouraged, you can still be a unique and interesting individual. Just because you were not professionally...

I had a step ladder. I never knew my real ladder.

There's always been some confusion regarding this new mechanic we offered in Ultramodern5. Ultramodern5, A 5E Universal Sci-Fi Sourcebook + Campaigns & Adventures In traditional 5th Edition rules, classes represent defined fantasy archetypes. The type of story that Ultramodern5 seeks to...

Thanks for the coverage. We're about to cross $35K

FUNDED!!

I did an adventure in my homebrewed Ghost In The Shell campaign once where players entered a virtual reality and fought fantasy creatures. In Ultramodern5, we have this alien oil-like substance that forms into fantasy monsters--another way to have your cake and eat it too.

Amethyst did something similar. We used a dragon language called Pleroma that shaped the universe. In the first books back in 2008, it was a Vancian system. In our new book, you create living spells by speaking a word.

I guess that depends on the direction you want to take. I am more interested in offering spellcasters that are completely off the style scene in the core 5E books. I have made so far four different spellcasters. The oxomancer in Torus uses deckbuilding to determine power level. The Abecedarian...

Well, we are certainly not looking to imitate another artist, as we have an awesome one with Nick Greenwood, but we have been investigating avenues to accelerate output. There are already several major programs along with Photoshop which do not employ the current AI systems that are already...

We launched and are close to funding after only two days. Ultramodern5, A 5E Universal Sci-Fi Sourcebook + Campaigns & Adventures

We done it quite a few times, actually. NeuroSpasta is cyberpunk, Apex offers superheroes. Then we have the Affinity trilogy, which offers sci-fi fantasy, space opera, and steampunk. I imagine we'll cover every genre we think of. This new Kickstarter is going to offer weird west, space horror...

Thanks for the comment. Ladders were inspired by the "heroes" in D20. They give you a basic level 1 ability, most often to change your primary attack attribute. Then as you level, instead of choosing an ability score bonus or feat, you can select your next ladder ability. So it's like this...

It’s come to our knowledge that a certain… well-known—I mean, I guess—board game is launching on June 20th, the same day as ours. And while we would expect some carryover promotion, the potential to get lost in the miasma of hype has convinced us to advance the clock a bit. Also, Backerkit’s...
