![]() There are a lot of petty lordlings in Midgard, as well as dukes and emperors. Every single one of them wants their nation to show allegiance in clear, pictorial form. Heraldry is one of those things that makes Midgard entertaining during play: describing a shield to players can get a reaction from the person who recognizes it, or call for die rolls if someone wants to try to puzzle out information from it. It's also just a sign of who is rich and powerful, of course. Check out the latest update for three samples of the heraldry that will be part of the Midgard kingdom writeups, art by Addison Rankin; he'll be doing the honors for the book, and I must say I like the look of it! For Midgard veterans are their any heraldric devices you're particularly interested in seeing? https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/350683997/midgard-campaign-setting-dar k-roads-and-deep-magic/posts/1806706 ![]()
![]() When we titled this project "Dark Roads & Deep Magic", we definitely wanted to give equal weight to both setting and sourcebook. Midgard has always been a dark setting, fairly twisted in its biggest empires of evil, and one of the ways that works out best at the table is if the DM has some toys that the players don't know much about. In the early days of Zobeck and Midgard, those toys included necrophagy cast by the ghoul warlocks and later it grew to include Red Portal magic in the Southlands. Read on to find out more about Void, Blood, and Doom magic. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/350683997/midgard-campaign-setting-dar k-roads-and-deep-magic/posts/1803629 ![]()
![]() You've done it! Thank you for getting us past $100,00! It's a big milestone and it brings a lot to the campaign. And now we charge on to the next stretch goals, $105k will bring us Deep Magic: Chaos Magic to the Heroes Handbook and $110 ushers in 5 more iconic characters illustrated by Bryan Syme. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/350683997/midgard-campaign-setting-dar k-roads-and-deep-magic ![]()

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!

![]() 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. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1084491323/dragon-kings/ ![]()
![]() 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. ![]()
![]() 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. ![]()
![]() ShadowcatX, thanks for the comments. We were considering those exact ideas and things were in the works for adjusting them, see our announcement below. Could you explain your second stretch goal comment in a little more detail, I don't follow. FUNDING GOAL REACHED, ALL GAME STRETCH GOALS ADVANCE ONE NOTCH! Excellent news, everyone! Not only have we reached our funding goal, but we’ve secured separate funding to ensure the Black Fortress Falls Song Trilogy Stretch Goal is already achieved (details on that coming soon!). So, all subsequent Stretch Goals are bumped forward (see the Stretch Goals section for details)! That means the next Stretch Goal we’re striving toward is the 13th Age PDF Rules Supplement (now just $36,000), followed quickly by the Sorcery’s Wrath adventure (now just $39,000) right after that. Game fans, spread the word – the Dragon Kings game universe is expanding quickly! http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1084491323/dragon-kings ![]()
![]() Dragon Kings fans, Today we announced a new rebate offer to all international backers. This comes from listening to our current backers and responding to fan requests across the community. We took these suggestions seriously and hope you like the new offer. The rebate can be taken in one of two options at the end of the Kickstarter for international backers who are receiving the printed World Book as part of their rewards: 1) Cash Rebate Option. International backers get a straight rebate after the Kickstarter concludes ($10 for most, or $20 for Canadian backers) -OR- 2) Bonus Rebate in Add-Ons Option: International backers can take an additional $10 greater than that amount in add-ons (such as print versions of the PDF rules supplements, miniatures, poster maps or other products). Also a reminder from last week, we announced three new pledge levels: Digital Gamer, Gamer of Khitus, and Champion Gamer of Khitus. These give potential backers new assortments of products and provide access to the World Book at lower levels. Please let us know what you think of these new international options. Thank you for all your feedback so far, we appreciate it! ![]()
![]() International backers, we’re listening! We’re considering several options to make print copies of the Dragon Kings items more affordable and attractive to international backers. International postage is expensive, but there are some things we’re considering for international backers who are getting the printed World Book as part of their rewards. Join the discussion at the Dragon Kings Forums to let us know what you think! ![]()
![]() Dragon Kings fans, thank you for your discerning eyes and constructive feedback. Dragon Kings is a complex multi-media project and we want to give you the greatest possible options to enjoy it the way you want. Over the past 24 hours we’ve taken all of your comments and concerns and boiled them down to these new game-centric pledge levels. Enjoy! http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1084491323/dragon-kings DIGITAL GAMER: $25
