Modiphius' Kickstarter for Robert E. Howard's Conan Roleplaying Game closes this weekend. Right now it's at £304K ($438K), which means it's almost certainly going to end up in the top five RPG Kickstarters of all time. The latest bonus unlocked for backers is pretty cool -- "Modiphius can exclusively announce for ENWorld that having smashed the £300,000 level we have unlocked not only a free conversion guide from d20 to 2d20 for Conan fans but also all backers including 'Every Unlocked Book In PDF' (like the PDF Master or Print & PDF Master Pledges or PDF Subscription) now will get a bonus set of all the Conan d20 PDFS courtesy of Conan Properties."
They have more to say, of course! The last days of a Kickstarter are always something of a frenzy:
"Conan has a long history in the roleplaying world starting as far back as the first TSR Boxed set and Conan Properties has kindly offered our backers access to the d20 Conan PDF's. Whilst our team are focused solely on Robert E. Howard's writings, under the guidance of a team of Conan scholars led by Jeffrey Shanks, we value the history of Conan in both literature and games. Modiphius is therefore pleased to offer that history to our Conan Kickstarter Backers!
We had a lot of groups asking how they can port over their d20 characters and campaigns to 2d20, many of which have been running for years and now we're giving them the tools with the Conversion Guide which will be free with all Conan RPG Kickstarter Pledges.
Today we also announced that Modiphius will be supporting Roll20 for the Conan RPG, unlocked the Conan the Brigand Book and overnight unlocked the Nameless Cults book which dials up the cosmic horror even further in your campaign.
The big news yesterday was that Modiphius unlocked PRINT SUBSCRIPTIONS - this crazy deal adds every book in print for the next 2 years to the two big available pledges - the Hoard of Yezdigerd (£300 - all the books) and Secrets of Mount Yishma (£600 - all the books, all the accessories) making them incredible value (especially considering our £300k pdf bonus)."
They've also sent along some cover images Conan the Brigand, and Nameless Cults (both mentioned above).
Click on any of the images (or just click here) to head over to the Kickstarter. You have until Sunday!
