June 14, 2012 Redmond, WA — Super Genius Games is already one of the most popular and prolific 3rd-party publishers of support material for the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, but this summer they’re taking it up a notch. Since November of 2009, the company has published at least one Pathfinder-related PDF product every week, and now they proudly announce that from June 14 until September 13, 2012 they will instead release two products every week. They’re calling the event the Summer of Bullets, in no small part because a good number of the products will be part of their “#1 With a Bullet Point” line of supplements.
“Bullet Points are particularly short products,” explained Hyrum Savage, Super Genius Games’ co-founder. “Each one features just a few examples of a very specific game feature, like ’8 Barbarian Feats’ and ’4 Ghostbusting Items,’ and this summer we’re going to let the bullet points fly so be sure to check out the Summer of Bullets website!”
Each week during the course of this event, Super Genius Games will release their regularly scheduled product early in the week (generally on Tuesdays) and then a bonus Bullet Point product later in the week (generally on Thursdays).
“The bonus products will all be spell-related,” said Owen K.C. Stephens, Lead Designer for Super Genius and author of all of the Bullet Point products to date. “They’ll feature material that will let spellcasters use their spells in new and novel ways. In effect, they can gain some new capabilities without having to learn any new spells.”
Another highlight of the Summer of Bullets will be the release of three new products in the Anachronistic Adventurers line: The Luminary (for diplomat/faceman characters), the Tough (for thug/biker/bruiser characters), and the Sensitive (for high wisdom perceptive/spiritualist characters). Each of these products will present new base classes that allow you to play modern-era heroes in your Pathfinder game.
“Anachronistic Adventurers line grew out of the ideas we had a few years back,” said Stan!, Super Genius Games Creative Director. “In 2010 we ran a Kickstarter campaign we called ‘P20 Modern’—a full-fledged modern-era RPG based on the Pathfinder rules. Although the fund raising wasn’t successful, we didn’t give up on the idea completely. We just broke it into smaller parts. With these three, we’ll finally have all six of what could have been the base classes for a modern-era Pathfinder game.”
At the end of the Summer of Bullets, Super Genius Games will release the “City of Lights”, an adventure that ties directly into the Anachronistic Adventurers line and is the first in a series of adventurers and supplements that support Pathfinder games in modern settings.
I see you're living up the title of the Minister of Propaganda!
Sounds pretty interesting though.
Very cool!
You're trying to kill me, aren't you? I'm already behind on Bullet Point reviewing as it is! *sigh*
Oh, and: "City of Lights"? MEGA-awesome!
;)
The discipline to do a release a week consistently, let alone two a week, amazes me. Very impressive.

We started things off with our first Full Clip Bullet Point, with more goodness than we can cram into one page of rules!
And #1 With a Bullet Point: 7 Magic Missile Feats has already picked up two reviews, a 4/5, and a 5/5!
Then this week we put out another Full Clip Bullet Point, for the Summer of Bullets!
#1 With a Bullet Point: 5 Fireball Feats. Which already has a 5/5 review!
BP reviews caught up, ready to rock....bring them on!
I am truly looking forward to new material for the Anachronistic Adventurers line, it's some of my favorite material from any 3rd party publisher. And maybe we can hope for some Bullet Points that pertain to those classes?
