Let's say I only play the 13th Age system, but I like your project. I can either back your project and hope it gets on the system I play, but that's a gamble. I'd rather wait until I'm sure my game is going to be supported and then back, but if I do that, I'm not helping you reach that stretch goal.

Also, even if you do make it for my 13th Age system, it is an add on, it isn't something you had in mind when designing things and you may or may not be able to get it out on time with the other systems or it may be delayed. Will other books on the setting include rules for the 13th Age since 13th age is just an add on?

Third, you're kind of working against your current backers by having a stretch goal that they, very likely, won't benefit at all from. I, literally, wouldn't pay an extra penny to get 13th Age rules, so I'm not going to increase my funding if we get close to that goal. I also have no reason to encourage people to support the kickstarter if that's the funding goal we get close to when time is running out. (I'm using personal experience here, but I'm sure plenty of other people feel the same way.)

Please don't think I'm trying to put you or this project down in any way, I'm not. Just, from what I have seen, incentives like this aren't very good. Better incentives are things like the adventure. You moving everything up will help as well, I think that was a very good idea. :)


I've been watching this since day one, and I have to say I've never been so torn on a kickstarter before (I've backed 47 projects). The more I read, the more I see a music centered kickstarter with some nostalgia gaming stuff. Will I get $25 worth of gaming material out of it? Hard to say.

If you've been following their facebook there wouldn't be a doubt in your mind. A world book with the quality of writing they've been putting out, full of Brom's art, even if the mechanics fail, is easily worth the price of admission.


I have been following their facebook.


Thanks ShadowcatX.

Each of our PDF rules supplements is being designed by a veteran designer with a history of writing for that game system. We're confident they'll get the rules supplements in on time.

We've found that a significant portion of the audience plays multiple games and seem to be intrigued at the thought of the world of Khitus displayed in several systems.


ThatWeirdGeckoGuy,

Thanks for sharing your concerns. We think you'll definitely get $25 worth of gaming material out of the combination of World Book, Art Gazatteer, Map, & Rules PDFs you get from the Digital Gamer pledge level.

Our goal is really to make a comprehensive package of inspiration. With the hardcover tome you can flip through to find what sparks your interest with words, the large format art gazetteer allows you to browse the great pieces of art and wonder about the world of Khtius, then there's the 12 song CD (and now additional 3 song trilogy) that will really pull you into the devastated world of Dragon Kings.


Pssst, there's 1 more left..hurry!

DRAGON KING: As COMPLETE DRAGON KINGS FAN plus one of our artists will create an original, digital, piece of art for YOUR Dragon kings character.

Shiny!

So with all pledges "moved up" one, are we nearing the 13th Age or the Sorcery's Wrath?


@ ShadowcatX - Yes.

The 13th Age rules set is $36K.
Sorcery's Wrath is $39K.

Plus, with the Crowdfunding on the Dragon Kings Project site until January, It's very likely that both will be met.

(The Kickstarter is at $34,898 as of this post.)

Liberty's Edge

But if all the pledges moved one up, shouldn't we have already met the 13th age rules and sorcery's wrath be at 36,000?


Update #4 on the Kickstarter page clarifies it.

The original $36K stretch goal was the "Black Fortress Falls Song Trilogy", which received separate/independent funding, so they bumped everything up.

That means that the "13th Age Rules" became the new $36K stretch goal.


We just passed $36k! That means the 13th Age rules supplement is going to be a reality! Industry veteran Darren Pearce will write the supplement. If you want more than a PDF you can add-on the supplement in print as well.

Next on deck is “Sorcery’s Wrath” Adventure (PDF). A 16-page adventure with rules for every unlocked rules system. We've got 44 hours to go to hit $39k. Let's do it!

Oops, thanks Oceanshieldwolf!


With your help we'll make the next ($39k stretch goal), we're only $1,080 away! Here's a little bit more about the Sorcerey's Wrath adventure stretch goal. Less than 24 hours left on the Kickstarter!

Sorcery's Wrath: King Darome of Hethesh, a ruler of power and grace, lies dying in his chambers of a wasting disease, soon to follow his young wife and child into death after their terrible accidents. The people whisper of curses, the soothsayers blame Ynusth, a court wizard banished for his wickedness. Tracking him down puts his pursuers beneath the glare of powerful magic, but also into the abandoned fortress of Tharcluun, a long-missing Dragon King, where its secrets are laid bare.

Pledge now! Less than 24 hours left!

Farcluun! Umm, I mean Tharcluun!

So cool. Really hope we get some more pledges to make this a reality :-)


The last 15 minutes until this is successfully funded!

:D

EDIT: And it's DONE!

Huzzah!
