In doing a kickstarter, you can link revisions of the material (other editions of the game) to pledge levels reached.
I would love to see a 3.5/Pathfinder edition update, even though I am currently playing in a 5E game.

Please keep us updated.


I was thinking the same thing. I figure the stretch goals can include things like additional systems, such as Pathfinder/3.5, Savage Worlds, etc.

I'm also looking at stretch goals for i,proving the artwork, maps, etc.

I will definitely keep everyone here updated on the progress!

Not to derail the thread but here's as good a place as any for a Companions module question; I'm wondering if anyone can tell me if the "map included" for Gems of Death is the b&w maps stapled into the center of the book...

Thanks!

Mine has one large fold-out map, something like 17x22 (or larger).  So yes.

It should have one large B&W map sheet with numerous smaller maps.  It also should contain a color map stapled into the center as well.  I returned a copy I bought because it was missing the color map, but was complete with the other map.

You can compare the maps using the table of contents list of maps to make sure you have all of them.

Still looking for a complete copy of this one....

I will make sure I keep everyone on here updated on the status. In the meantime, please spread the word!

Thanks!


Curious too if this is still being worked on  :)

I just picked up about 100 pages of Islandia campaign material from someone who played in Wm. John Wheeler's home campaign back in the 1980's. Lots of interesting Islandia history that I hadn't seen in print before.

So looking forward to this project!  I would be honored to help write Sacrifices to the Orc Lord and Abbey of Odeo, Lord of Hatred.  If any ideas can be gleaned from the notes, I will gladly help flesh these out.

Bill, do you know if that material could be published?  I'd volunteer to do that work if it was possible...

I doubt it would be able to be published without significant obstacles. But thank you for the offer Thom.

Well, the offer stands indefinitely.

Would love to see that Islandia work sometime.  A trip from New England to the midwest just keeps getting more important.

No Treasure Trove II.

Missing from your list are another version of Fantasy Furnishings (different scales) and a hex pad. Nothing else in the generic fantasy genre. They did a second edition of a WWII RPG called Behind Enemy Lines as well.


Areas of interest/knowledge: Harn, WFRP, Ars Magica, anything BRP based such as CoC, Runequest, Pendragon and all their related games
