D&D 5E [Kobold Press] Announcing Tome of Heroes!

Ugh. Alright, Kobold. I'm game for at least the PDF.

Kobold Press is one of the most important 3PPs, even one of their books is going to be published into Spanish languange by Nosolorol. Can anyone to say the same?

I wish them success and I hope more books to be translated.

Awesome. Is this going to be basically rolling up the Warlock and Deep Magic releases into a new book, or is it all unseen material?

They just last year released Deep Magic 5e as a compiled book with all the Deep Magic release i though, no need to do that all again I would have thought?

I do hope that if it's basically a Heroes' Handbook 2.0, then they update the quick setting summary at the start to the timeframe of the more recent books. I love the Midgard campaign setting book, but the body text does contain a lot of spoilers re secret plot developments like the whole Nethus thing. It'd be nice to have something spoiler-free to give players.

Some material will be picked up and compiled (mainly from smaller releases like Warlock and the various Players Guides) but most of the material will be brand new!

How tied is this to Midgard? I had not picked up books like Midgard or SCAG because they seem strongly tied to a specific campaign world. If this is easily dragged and dropped into a home brew like Xanathar’s, I’ll be happy to give it a look!

Great question!!

This is not tied to Midgard, it is a setting neutral source book like Deep Magic or Vault of Magic, and is easily used in any campaign setting or homebrew world!

There will be some sidebars in the book detailing how some things tie into Midgard, but otherwise this is a book that will work for everyone's game!

I have it pre-ordered. Can't wait. The Gunpowder mechanics, from what I've read, sounds pretty interesting.
