April 17, 2024: Join The Campaign For Saethor's Bane

Saethor's Bane, an introductory programmed adventure for the Dungeon Fantasy Roleplaying Game, funded on Backerkit on March 9 after reaching the goal to upgrade all the art to full color. The campaign is – for a few more days – accepting late pledges, which includes a limited number of Dungeon Fantasy RPG box sets.

The adventure is ideal for learning GURPS via the Dungeon Fantasy RPG. It rapidly pushes four characters from "competent new heroes" at 112 points to well over 250-300 points by the time the adventure is over . . . perfect to start an ongoing Dungeon Fantasy RPG career. It gives new players – and experienced ones! – a great overview of the capabilities and growth pathways for the professions.

It also fully supports – and extends – the Delvers to Grow model of modular character generation, which has been used at home tables and conventions to create new characters in 30 minutes . . . [more]

April 15, 2024: Discworld RPG Bundle Of Holding Available For A Limited Time!

Bringing the realm of Sir Terry Pratchett's beloved Discworld series to your gaming table has never been more affordable, thanks to the Discworld RPG Bundle of Holding.

The Disc Collection consists of three PDFs. The shining jewel is the Discworld Roleplaying Game, the Powered by GURPS stand-alone RPG that gives you everything you need to explore the Disc's magic, mayhem, mirth, and mortals (and immortals!).

This bundle also includes two other useful books. GURPS Low-Tech helps serious-minded individuals add realistic options to their GURPS Fourth Edition games. GURPS Fantasy-Tech 1: The Edge of Reality collects less-serious-minded ideas that people once upon a time thought might be possible or work, but – as it turns out – weren't feasible, making it perfect for settings where the impossible is a bit easier to come by.

The links in the previous paragraph were provided so you could . . . [more]

April 14, 2024: Ogre Minis Set 4 Shipping Early!

Earlier this year we launched Ogre Minis Set 4, our first project on BackerKit's relatively new crowdfunding platform. Not only did the platform work well, we were very happy with the response to Set 4. Our tried and true Ogre fanatics showed up to support it, and we were also happy to see a lot of new folks interested in experiencing Ogre for the very first time! The response to the new-player pledge levels was so strong that we sold out of multiple pledge levels on the first day. Thank you!

Now on to the even better news.

At the onset of the campaign, we had estimated a June 2024 fulfillment date. We're happy to report that we are ahead of schedule, and the Warehouse 23 team started shipping orders of Ogre Miniatures Set 4 on April 9! Look for miniature tanks to arrive in mailboxes around the world over the next few weeks.

The remaining sets of Ogre Miniatures Set . . .
