[MEG PR] Dogs of War!

Mystic Eye Games Announces Dogs of War PDF series.

Release the hounds! Mystic Eye Games is proud to announce their latest PDF product line, the Dogs of War. A monthly series, each Dogs of War presents two non-player characters for use as antagonists in your campaign. However, these aren’t just ordinary characters—each has the following special features:

Complete Character Background
Adventure and Plot Hooks
Ideas for Using the Characters in Gothos or Bluffside
Complete Stat Blocks at 3 Different Challenge Ratings (giving three full sets of stats for each character)
Crunchy Bits Filled with Open Game Content from Mystic Eye Games and Other Companies
Design Notes Revealing “What the Author Was Thinking”
Full Color Art from Leading Industry Artists

Every character is designed with the “complex creature” in mind; these are NPCs who take a while to build due to their multi-classing, templates, exotic races, and compilation of Open Game Content. Mystic Eye Games has done the legwork to collect this material into usable, interesting, and always challenging NPCs. Averaging CR 9 and up, these characters provide a worthy opponent to most middle to high level PC parties.

Each NPC is written by 2002 ENnie Award winning designer Charles W. Plemons III (contributing author to Creature Collection II: Dark Menagerie), who is well known to fans of the Foul Locales and Dragonstar Adventure lines. Open Game Content from a myriad of sources is used in the creation of each character, truly showcasing what the Open Gaming License allows publishers to do with new and existing OGC. Don’t worry, all the details to use the OGC are printed in the Crunchy Bits section of each NPC, so you don’t even have to have the original source of the content!

Throw your PCs to the wolves with these dangerous adversaries who are sure to make a lasting impression in your campaign! Whether you are playing a published campaign, a homebrew game, or the Gothos or Bluffside settings, there is something in each Dogs of War for you. Available soon at fine PDF retailers.

Are you going to have NPCs that use some of the OGL from MEG and other compainies or is it going to be core rules only? Are the CRs for the NPCS always going to be the same or varied?

We will be pulling material from absolutely everywhere for these and everything you need to use that character will be included so if we add some strange OGC feat the info it will be included in the Dogs of War write-up.

In vol 1

Dogs of War NPC pack vol 1 will have two very complex NPCswith progressions in three different stages of levels.

Trelise Hellstormer is a Female Half-Fiend, Two-headed Troll who progresses up through the Barbarian and Wizard Classes.

Ogu-Ky is a Female half-Medusa Harpy who starts as a Bard and eventually progresses through Assasin and then Shadow Mage. Every bit of info you need to run these NPCs is included (of course you will still need the PHB and other core books) and the list of where the OGC material was drawn from is included as well (in the section 15 as it should be) but you will not need the original source.

I doubt you'll get much arguement around these parts

Yes, and RPGNow is willing to print it for me, so that's an idea. Do they bind it too or send it loose leave? I guess it wouldn't be too much trouble to take care of that myself regardless.

Seeing as I'd never get a Credit Card (supposedly anyway) and likely will avoid Debit (I'd go mad with it's easiness; creating large amounts of Rubber). Does someone happen to do a Checks by Phone/Checks by Web thing?

That's always worked well for me.

Print on Demand

When they do a Print on Demand version, you get what practically looks like a book: perfect bound, colour glossy cover, but I think laser-printed interiour. We just got our copies of Three Arrows for the King in, and it's GORGEOUS! The main advantage of the POD system is, you pay for your product and get to download the PDF right away so you can use it immediately, and at the same time your book is mailed out. I'm surprised more people don't do it !

As for the cheque thang, I can't really help you with that.
