All,

I'm finally launching the Kickstarter for God Slayers today.  I'm aiming for 2pm EST for those that care about getting in early to secure a low print number.

I'll update this thread 30 minutes before launch, including the link to the project.

God Slayers completes the 3 part False Promises series (False Promises, Fury of Thringalesh, God Slayers).

Thanks,

Thom

Last Pre-Launch Update:  KS goes live at 2:45pm ET.

Update:  1:45pm EST:  I must have been in a strange state on the account page - logged out, logged back in and it let me finish the setup.  Ready to go in the next 15-30 minutes.

Update: 1:30pm EST:  KS is having an issue with my account setup (last 3 hrs) and it appears that their submit page is broken!  It's not letting the simple update occur.  Ticket open since this morning...

Thanks for the heads up... Backed!

Good luck with project and the next ones :)

Are you still ok combine shipping with the 2016 releases?


I draw the line at collecting... D&D beach towels.

Shoulda been: ".. from Pangreenia to Floratopolis, from mystical Treeonia of spectral Forests to Schruborial dimensions." - The Forests of Leng

Thanks Dave!

For the 2016, do you mean upcoming KS/offline books or for NTX 2016 books?  I guess I need clarification...  :-)

That would be Island of Blight and the digest modules. I'm happy to wait until there are enough books to make international shipping worthwhile.

Dave,

Ah, got you now.  I can do that for you if you wish.  I'll note that we'll combine the shipments in early 2016 - probably will have to refund you shipping costs if I continue to KS these [Island of Blight for sure, but the digests may be an offline limited print run, exclusive to dedicated backers only, tbd).

Island of Blight is pretty darn close to completed.  We finish playtesting one of the digests 'Wicked, Woeful Web' this Saturday.  'Halloween Goes to Hell' was playtested last month at Sticks & Stones, a CT con, but was too hard for the players (surprise!)... I'm not going to tone down the combat difficulty (is supposed to be hard), but better clues are needed to help players figure out how to stop the events.  'The Shambling Thieves' has been playtested but needs a full rewrite, including a journal supplement (add on).

So, work doesn't stop with 'God Slayers'!  lol

Thanks!

Thom

Thanks guys, the support is much appreciated!  We're 75% there will plenty of time left - would love to get to goal soon so I can push for the first stretch goal - a color illustration on the back cover!

Thanks!

Thanks to all that have already backed the 'God Slayers' project, it's very much appreciated!

As we crawl through the doldrums of the project cycle, if you've thought about backing this but haven't yet, I'd politely ask that you do so.  The sooner we get to goal, the closer we are to the first stretch to get a color illustration on the back cover!  Lucas would like to get started on it if we can get there soon!

Thanks everyone!

Thom

*** Final Reminder ***

The 'God Slayers' Kickstarter ends in 30+ hours...  I'm only going to print about 10-15 extra over the KS requirement.

Thanks everyone!
