Many third-party publishers have banned together to produce a massive bundle of 68 PDFS (and growing) for a $25 contribution to help send industry pros Christina Stiles, Amanda Hamon, and Owen K.C. Stephens to GenCon. Additionally, the publishers want to get fan-favorite reviewers ENDZEITGEIST and KTFISH7 to the Big Show.
GO HERE to view what's available from publishers like Super Genius Games, Rite Publishing, Fat Dragon Games, Fat Goblin Games, Green Ronin Publishing, Pinnacle Entertainment Group, Clockwork Gnome Publishing, Legendary Games Publishing, Battlefield Press, and many others!
The newest additions include the following (added to IndieGoGo very soon):
BATTLEFIELD PRESS
Sherwood: The Legend of Robin Hood (Savage Worlds Edition):.
CLOCKWORK GNOME PUBLISHING
The Virtuous and the Vile--Morithal, Lord of Unceasing Hunger.
FAT GOBLIN GAMES (8 MORE!)
Call to Arms: Archer's Arsenal.
Detective Carnacki’s Serial Killers of Vathak.
When will the bundle be available for those who contribute? At the end of the funding?

I may have to wait until after I get paid, but after a look at the list of contributors, enlightened self-interest dictates that I support this. Wow...
I'm unsure as to some of the differences between IndieGoGo and Kickstarter. Will the PDF's be distributed to the contributors regardless of whether full funding is reached, or will that require you to reach your goal?
When will the bundle be available for those who contribute? At the end of the funding?
I was intending to wait until the end of the project, as we are gaining more contributions almost every day. I will, however, find out if that's an issue and get back to you!

Yes, we are AMAZED by the 3PP community support. You don't want to miss out on this bundle!

Yes, we will distribute the pdfs to those who have bought in for them, regardless. That may not be the case for all IGG projects, but we are doing so.
Another difference is that the funds are immediately charged from your account, while KS waits until the end date.

Some of this I have, other I want. Alas, I'm banned by the SO from Paypal. If only I could use visa...
I don't see a way of changing that option. There's 15 days to the end. You could always forward a money order, if you really wanted. PM me if you do.
I'm unsure as to some of the differences between IndieGoGo and Kickstarter.
One difference to keep in mind is that your money is deducted immediately for IndieGoGo. They collect money right then, meaning that the project gets paid no matter what. It allows campaigns, such as Christina's, to decide what they do at partial funding levels. Kickstarter is all or nothing. Either it funds, or it doesn't. That is likely they chose Indie. If they raise some, but not all, they can still send somebody somewhere.
BTW, I went in for $25.

The support from the publishers for this is incredible, but I want to throw some serious love for those folks helping whether they are pledging to help or are helping to spread the word, I got nothing love for what if going on here. And yes, for the record, I am right there with those out there wanting to see End! get to the big show...so lets keep driving to help those this whole thing started for and get funding covered for getting them and home and covering the necessities...from there, let's get to work on helping get End! here.
Seriously, I want to see Thilo get the chance to see GenCon with his own eyes. Anyone with as much passion for the 3PP community, with as much love for gaming period, deserves to walk into the single largest playground for us big kids :). Not to mention, let's face is, those of us within the ranks of publishers, designers and writers is would be pretty freaking awesome to finally get him to whip out the official stamp of approval on one of our books to take back to the office wall....admit it, now that I have said it, I'm not the only one who wants that framed book on their wall am I?
My friends, I hope we all find the road to GenCon this year.

Just checking cause it makes sense. Will the bundle be sent by email?
I would imagine it would be delivered via RPGnow/Paizo/DriveThru or similar with complimentary codes for each product. I do have a vivid imagination however.
Just checking cause it makes sense. Will the bundle be sent by email?
Yes, you will receive an email with a link to the bundle, which is being built on DriveThruRPG. There are a few outliers that I will email directly, since those folks do not have accounts there--it is more like one or two at this point.

Shouldn't that be "banded together"? I don't think you were all banned.
Ha, yes!
Actually, we were all banned from Graceland "together." Lol!
And now I've got Paul Simon's "Graceland" running through my brain...
Lol! I had a friend who was actually thrown out for laughing about the King dying on the crapper. Well, she and several people she was with were thrown out. That's what made me think to say that.
Sing your song!
Expecting some more PDFs on Thurs.
::Looks at list. Drools::
OK, hubby gets paid tomorrow. ;)
Wohoo, Spiral_Ninja! :)
I'm hoping to hear back from Troll Lord Games today, too.

Those wonderful Trolls have graced us with four products, bringing out total to 78 PDFs for the Get Industry Pros/Reviewers to GenCon project!!!
Here's what they added:
Castles & Crusades 5th-edition Player's Handbook I LOVE THIS GAME!!!
AMAZING Adventures (pulp-action Castles & Crusades by Jason Vey). This is very good stuff!
A1 Assault on Blacktooth Ridge adventure. This is part of an adventure-path-like series. I believe they are up to A11 now (but don't quote me).
Curse of the Khan by Casey Christofferson. I really enjoy Casey's work. He just completed the Jack of Lies TLG will be printing in hardcover very soon. Check out his Fields of Battle boxed set, though.
Now how can you say no to 78 PDFs for $25?
So, having just gone through the latest PDF bundle list, going on current pricing (excluding the exclusive items included here just for this) the total is around $465 for a $25 buy in.....yeah, this is about as good of a deal you are going to find friends.
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
In for $25!
Thanks, Spiral_Nija! There are just 8 days left to make this happen, and we are still very far away from getting KTFISH7 and ENDZEITGEIST to GenCon! Please share the IGG project wherever you can. We need to get the word out to make this happen for the community's wonderful reviewers!
Thank you much, Doug!

I threw some money at this. I'm especially fond of Enzeigeist and Owen, since I've talked to both a little, and they were very cool despite my occasional fan boy screaming.
Lol! Thank you, Jon! :)

I believe it's all done as one bundled product through DriveThru, but I could be wrong.

Alrighty, got an answer for ya! Most of the PDFs will be available through one DriveThruRPG code, but two individual products will have separate codes. So, if the total of PDFs stays the same, it'll be 78 PDFs with one code and two with their own.
Hope that helps. Thanks so much for your consideration, cmastah!
I have another question: if I put in a second payment of $25, can I gift it to a friend? Jeff Erwin alluded to this HERE just want to make sure!!!
Dot so I don't forget when I can actually look into this in a bit more depth. Can't believe I almost missed supporting this.
@Aleron: Don't be too long - not many days left!!!

Yep, you can certainly do this!
Christina will be sending out DriveThruRPG codes to all the contributors, so you might want to just shoot her a note to make sure she sends you separate codes for your friend (if you grab the additional bundle). Or I can shoot her a note to ask her to do this.
Just let me know what you want to do, and thanks so much for all your awesome support! I really, really appreciate it!
Dot so I don't forget when I can actually look into this in a bit more depth. Can't believe I almost missed supporting this.
Hi, Aleron. Morgan is right -- we only have 67 hours left to go! Thanks so much for your consideration!
I contributed! Hope you guys meet your target.
I have another question: if I put in a second payment of $25, can I gift it to a friend? Jeff Erwin alluded to this HERE just want to make sure!!!
Yes, you can. Before I send up the email list on the bundle, I can change one for you.

Thank you, baronbloodbath!
We have just under two days to go, and we're getting SO CLOSE to our goal! Thanks to everyone for all your help!
