[h=3]ZEITGEIST Adventure Path Kickstarter Continues[/h]
Just over a week left to get in on our ZEITGEIST adventure path Kickstarter! We just reached our third stretch goal, which adds a bonus dungeon crawl to the five excellently-reviewed adventures you're already getting. We've added new Player's Option pledges as well, including a discounted package that includes both a softcover copy of the Player's Guide and a portrait of your PC done by artist Claudio Pozas!
Also, all members of EN World - whether you pledge to the Kickstarter or not - are welcome to participate in the Villainous Convocation. This is your chance to play as the villains, deciding what next plot they will enact. Your choices will appear in the 7th adventure of ZEITGEIST: The Gears of Revolution, and will influence the fate of the whole world. People who cast a vote are entered into a drawing for a free copy of the compilation PDF, and we'll pick one participant to receive a free hardcover.
Finally, we're close to our next stretch goal, at $10,000, which adds extra content to the Player's Guide, and if we reach $11,000 we'll also produce a compilation of the next four adventures in the campaign. The Kickstarter ends July 13th, so don't miss out.

In just one short week from now, on July 11th, Catalyst Game Labs will be releasing a new edition of the game which slammed high fantasy and cyberpunk together, and produced one of the most popular role-playing games of all time! Shadowrun has been a smash hit of the role-playing game community since its first emergence in 1989. Although bought and resold by several companies, and having endured four previous editions, the heart of the game setting - a blending of magic and science fiction, cyberpunk and fantasy, the Matrix and Great Dragons – remains intact, and enthralls role-playing aficionados generation after generaton.
