Heroes of the East III [June 15th]
The HoE line is back with the biggest helping of eastern themed goodness you've yet seen! Included are 4 new styles, 9 new archetypes (I thought I saw a ninja around here somewhere...), 2 new base classes, 2 prestige classes, plus new weapons armor feats and SO much more!
More information on this next week.
Equinox Mini-Campaign Setting [June 29th]
Another taste of a fantastic world at a low price! This one centers on a plane that is the result of the violent merging of two others! Now seasons determine everything and a new "shift" mechanic influences both class and race dramatically!
"Dinosaur Book" [Early/Mid July]
So one of our writers (Caleb) and one of our artists (Viking) LOVE dinosaurs. So they have been BEGGING to do a dinosaur themed book for a while. And we are pulling out ALL the stops! Dinosaur themed races, feats (kung fu styles anyone?) and all the primal goodness you can feed a T-Rex with!
Necropunk Core Rulebook [July 23rd]
You've heard us ramble on about this at GREAT lengths. Rather than do it injustice take a look at the successful Kickstarter Page.
Race/Culture Book [End of July/Early August]
We have a fantastic book on cultures in constructed worlds, racial classes (archetypes and prestiges), as well as new races, and rules for alternatives to racial prerequisites for prestige classes (like arcane archer for example).

HoE III
Well one fills a paladin/ranger/druid role and the other is a full caster reminiscent of a VERY old class from an obscure setting unrelated to this.
Equinox
Well every race is two races (a springblessed state and a wintertouched state). They shift kind of like werewolves. For example, humans become orcs and gnomes become goblins. There are two "new" races (a fey one and a very paradoxical one). There are a few new spells and whatnot that deal with the mechanics. I'd have to see about feats.
Necropunk
Our notes on character creation and management have been compiled into a Google doc right now and we will be transferring them to either a free PDF or as an add-on for the CRB (no charge).
Race/Culture Book
LOTS of races. We dedicate a half dozen pages to culture tropes in constructed worlds. There are racial classes for everything from wizard prestige for elves to commoner alternates for halflings.

Okay, a couple of questions:
1) The Necropunk kickstarter says our rewards will be delivered in October, does this release mean that those rewards are moved forward to July?
2) "Another taste of a fantastic world at a low price." - huh? Where was the first such taste? (This sounds like a line of products I'll be very interested in, so I'm actually asking a legitimate question, not being sarcastic.)
3) What do you mean "constructed worlds"?
| Little Red Goblin Games |
1) Yep. Our updates have the schedule in it. October is for some of our farther products that were announced as part of the line (bestiary, adventure path start, etc). The book is slated to be launched BY July 23rd. We work hard here to make sure you guys get the product as fast as possible!
2) We actually started this line of products with Of Angels and Demons. We are releasing $0.99 "mini campaign settings" or "campaign inspirations" which help you twist the Pathfinder rules in a way not done before. There are generally like 5-10 pages long and give a "taste" of a full campaign setting. Equinox is the 2nd one we are putting out. We have a few other ones coming as well.
3) The term constructed world refers to any artificially created universe. In RPG terms this generally applies to settings. In books and games it is the mythos that is created, the backdrop if you will.

So what you're saying is that you're ahead of schedule? (By which I mean you plan to start delivering on your promise early, not deliver the promised product on the last day possible and only then start working on the other books.) Way to set an example. :)

Ok, I have that, I just hadn't realized it was what you were talking about. Cool.

I have no idea what this means. When you say artificially created universe are we talking about campaign settings such as Darksun (which isn't artificially created within the setting) or are we talking like "Blah blah race created this planet out of metal, covered it with dirt, and seeded the following races on it"?

We set out delivery date ahead of our projected date in case of something messing up. We'd rather deliver it ahead of time and surprise people than deliver it late and piss people off.
We are cooking with gas at the moment. We have a few editing passes to go and some artwork for the kickstarter backers + a cover to do and then we are good to go with the Core Rulebook.
Constructed Worlds
Oh no it's just a design term. When I mean artificially created I am referring to "not the real world". Any imaginary setting/world/universe. Any campaign setting is technically a constructed world because someone made it up. It's an umbrella term.
It is the same concept as constructed langues (languages that do not exist in the real world but are made up/fully developed).

I like this. I wish other companies would follow your example.

So it is an out of game term rather than an in game term, gotcha. Thank you.

Yeah. That's out pride and joy!
Our production schedule is based on agile development techniques (SCRUM based) to make sure we deliver products on time.
We have only ever had 2 products delivered late. One was due to an artist who we eventually fired and the other was because we were not happy with the quality of editing we had done so we delayed it 3 days.
We think it's important to deliver not only GOOD products but products delivered in a timely manner when we say we will. Unless we adjust the schedule for a larger product we deliver a product every 15-20 days.
When we know we need more time on a big product (like the Legendary Level books) we release lower quality/shorter free goblin rations to make sure we are still keeping to our schedule.

Have you compiled any errata for previous products to be released? For instance the Primal Host? I'm playing one right now. It's great and have had no issues. I was just wondering if there is one for something I might have missed.
Well I do have on question actually. The morph that allows you to shape your natural weapons as martial or simple weapons when you spend a favor token, how long does the reshaping last?
Also, might there be any supplemental or expansion materials in the works?
