TELL US: Player or GM and for how long?
over 5 years ago – Sat, Jul 11, 2020 at 01:42:09 AM

Hey everybody,

Things are still cruising along!  I'm still wowed every day when I see all the support.  Truly.  But today I want to talk about YOU!  Comment below and tell us if you are a player, GM or both.  Then tell us how long you've been playing tabletop RPGs.

Update: The Tabaxi bloodlines were intended as part of the 75k stretch goals, despite us accidentally posting a different goal for 75k.  We'll likely hit that goal in the next day or two, so you'll get both. 

One last thing you can do is to upgrade your pledge for extra goodies now instead of later in backerkit.  If you want any of the following items, you can simply increase your pledge amount and add on items now.  You will also have the same opportunity later in backerkit.

• TPK Games T-Shirts $25 - INCLUDED ALREADY IN THE WYRM'S HOARD. 
• Fifth Edition Options (5E Sourcebook) $24
• Metal Dice Sets $39 - INCLUDED ALREADY IN THE WYRM'S HOARD. 
• Monstrous Dice Sets $12 - INCLUDED ALREADY IN THE DRAGON-RIDER & DRAGONLORD. 
• Valkyrie’s Sky (5E Adventure) $24
• Fighter Folio (5E Sourcebook) $24
• The Bleak Harvest (5E Adventure) $20
• Slaughter at Splinterfang Gorge (5E Adventure) $20
• Recovery Dice Options (5E Sourcebook) $15 - INCLUDED ALREADY IN THE DRAGON-RIDER, DRAGONLORD, & WYRM'S HOARD.
• VTT Package $25 (Maps, FG, R20, Tokens) - INCLUDED ALREADY IN ANY PDF REWARDS.

The Dragon Temple VTT Map
over 5 years ago – Tue, Jul 07, 2020 at 07:46:43 PM

The Dragon Temple VTT Map

For those of you following along, here's a killer first look at some of our mapwork for the Book of Monstrous Might.  Within the tactics section of this book, you'll see a number of mini-adventures highlighting the clever tactics of monsters with gorgeous maps just like this one.

Since we unlocked all the virtual content, you'll also get your own downloadable VTT maps for them as well, allowing you to run the encounters or make up your own!

I'm narrowing down my checklist of things to-do each day, so here's a few for you.  

1) Like our official Facebook page 

2) Join in on the discussion of all things nerdy over at Fans of Total Party Kill Games.  Post whatever you like that's related to gaming.

3) Share the link to the Kickstarter on your social media outlets, tag us on Facebook or comment below so we know you did!  We are down the the final couple of weeks and we'll need all the support we can to unlock the final stretch goal at 100k.  Note, we've updated the stretch goals (see the main page).  

But I did mention a $100K stretch goal right?  At $100,000 we are adding a very special author.  Our friend Luke Gygax, son of late Dungeons & Dragons co-creator Gary Gygax will write the foreword for us, talking about the wonder of the early days of D&D and why monsters are such an integral part of the game.  If you think that's awesome, please like and comment below!

Thank you again guys.  We are doing something awesome together here, and I've got a ton forthcoming to show off over the next few weeks.

New Stretch Goals and Retailer Level!
almost 6 years ago – Sat, Jul 04, 2020 at 11:21:15 AM

Man... you guys are MONSTERS!  We crushed all of the stretch goals laid out for this campaign already, and I had to go back to the drawing board and figure out what else we could do to really make this exciting and reward you guys for your fantastic support.  Luckily, I never run out of ideas...

• 56k - Fantasy Grounds Conversion Digital Reward
• 60k - Roll 20 Conversion Digital Reward
• 65k - Monstrous Character Sheet Added!
• 70k - Monstrous Bloodlines & Ancestries Added
• 75k - New Tabaxi (Catfolk) Subraces Added!
• 80k - Half-Orc Ancestries Added!
• 85k - Giant Ancestries Added!
  

Those are some pretty epic stretch goals.  In order to hit them, we'll need some extra effort on your part though.  Help us get the word out.  Share links in your favorite social media groups, talk about this on Reddit, etc.  

Do you have a favorite FLGS?  Ask them if they would back the project.  We are giving our local gaming stores a deal that's as good or better than standard distribution.  You can also comment below with their name and address and we'll reach out.

One last thing you can do is to upgrade your pledge for extra goodies now instead of later in backerkit.  If you want any of the following items, you can simply increase your value pledged and add on items now.  You will also have the same opportunity later in backerkit.

• TPK Games T-Shirts $25
• Fifth Edition Options (5E Sourcebook) $24
• Metal Dice Sets $39 
• Monstrous Dice Sets $12
• Valkyrie’s Sky (5E Adventure) $24
• Fighter Folio (5E Sourcebook) $24
• The Bleak Harvest (5E Adventure) $20
• Slaughter at Splinterfang Gorge (5E Adventure) $20
• Recovery Dice Options (5E Sourcebook) $15
• VTT Package $25 (Maps, FG, R20, Tokens)
  

You might also be asking yourself what Bloodlines and Ancestries are.  Well, they are mechanically similar to a subrace.  Monstrous blood can mingle through the normal ways, but also through nefarious experimentation.  Bloodlines and Ancestries replace a subrace, but keep your core racial abilities intact.  Meaning you could have a dwarf character with a fire giant bloodline.  Or an elf, with a silver dragon bloodline.

So there's a lot to look forward to.  Talk to your local game store people and share this kickstarter project.  We'll be wrapping up sooner than you think and I want to give you all the amazing content we can!  Have a great weekend!
