[QUOTE="SlyFlourish, post: 9620017, member: 54840"] Dale Critchley of Wyrmworks Publishing launched the Free5e Kickstarter today: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/wyrmworkspublishing/free5e-a-free-open-source-dungeons-and-dragons-alternative[/URL] The intent is to build three full core books for 5e that are 100% Creative Commons and able to be printed anywhere in the world. This significantly helps countries whose economics are far different than other countries (A D&D 2024 PHB is the equivalent of $500 in India for example). Dale is using the funding for art, editing, layout and the rest. The Kickstarter rewards include lots of accessories since the books themselves will be released digitally for free in a huge host of formats intended to help usability and accessibility. It looks like an absolutely fantastic project to take 5e outside of the bounds of any one publisher and get it into the hands of everyone it can. Much of the source material for this book comes from Level Up Advanced 5e. Thanks to Morrus for releasing the largest 5e system in the CC. A bunch of my own material, also released in the CC, is in these books as well but I'm receiving no compensation for this. I'm just happy to help promote it. Anyway, take a look. [/QUOTE]
