Last year at NTRPG con Bill and Matt slaughtered over 40 PCs between them. At least that is what I was told. I didn't participate that time. I was too busy having a blast with Frank Mentzer, David "Zeb" Cook, chatting with Jim Ward, playing Paranoia, and trying out Cthulhu Wars demo'd by Sandy Peterson. Oh, and an all day session in which Greg Vaughan tried to kill us all with his new adventure addition to "The Blight".
I should keep quiet about this con. It's particularly good because due to fewer persons attending you get plenty of chances to hob nob with some of gaming's greatest and nicest creators, writers, and artists.
Ps. I usually run a late night game on friday and saturday thats just a walk in. I take the first 15 players usually.
I'll definitely have to remember that. Assuming I can scrounge up the funds to make it to the Con this year.

I have everything Necromancer Games and Frog God Games has done and I will continue to buy everything they do.
I also enjoy going to pick up the big books at the Frog Pond and talking with Bill and whoever else happens to be working their asses off that day.
Looking forward to Sword of Air and this and everything else that is coming out.

I don't have everything (can't afford to buy all of it) but I have most of it! LOL on the improvised weapon!
I have everything Necromancer Games and Frog God Games has done and I will continue to buy everything they do.Same way for me. The adventures never disappoint, and the books are indestructible (and give a 2d6 damage bonus as an improvised weapon).
I think that they also count as "masterwork" so you can enchant them.
As much as I would like to have a +4 Sword of Air, that is way beyond my budget!!!! Grrr:(
Just watched the video that will be part of the Barakus Kickstarter. Its worth it as a mini movie alone!
sword even...
You have editors for that Bill.

Thank goodness! One day, we'll compile a few books of Bill's notes, so us editors can have the pity we deserve lol j/k
:-)

I have a print copy of Bill's RA notes, they are rather amusing! And also written for some unique RPG ruleset too! ;-)
One of these weekends, when deadlines dont crunch me, Ill have to get some tips from these kids. They're pretty darn good, from what I hear.
Love the video!!!!!
One thing I would suggest is a tier ($80?) for those that want non-leather hardcovers in both Swords & Wizardry and Pathfinder versions.

I just asked the same question on the KS page. Thanks for the preview.
Good call DaveMage, also is there a mention that FGG products can be added to the KS pledge at a later date to combine shipping?
we'll add that mach.
Ill make sure Bill considers the 2 book option guys. good feedback
Oh my. Loved the video, very inspirational. I can hardly wait for this to begin.
Hoorah! I have to say that was THE best video talk that I have ever seen in a Kickstarter!!! When does this start now?
I just got the pdf of the original on the Paizo sale. We have been waiting for this one as we missed it the first time around.
I don't think it was silly, or if it is then I have been silly for the last 33 years because that is how I feel about the game which is why I support FGG!
Video got me pumped.
I sent an email to get a new tier created.

I'm excited. Thanks FGG for doing this. I'll be pledging as soon as it goes live (Assuming I'm not at work at the time, asleep, indisposed, captured by aliens, killing zombies, piloting the Starship Enterprise, assaulting Tsar, plotting my takeover of the universe or possessed by a demon).

Come on bro...in half of those scenarios you'll have internet.
:P
Tomorrow!
Can Not Wait!
FGG is making excellent choices about which NG mods to update/convert.
I have been wanting to run this one for a while. I'm the type that doesn't mind converting 3.5 stuff on the fly (more like basically just using as-is if I'm honest) but I tend to wait for the PF upgrades for another surprising reason that might seem minor to most folks.
Not to downplay the work of whoever does the crunch converting, because of course it's great to know the CR's are going to be right for PF and everything, but I have to say the subtle layout improvements in the PF updates of RA and Stoneheart Valley went an amazingly long way towards making me reach for them when I need something to run.
Oh, not to mention having a thoroughly bookmarked to use in conjunction with the hard copy, that makes all the difference in the world at the table.
Anyway, I'm glad this one is getting the update.

Looks like they did it for $75 dollars - Herald of the Lost Lands (US): both game versions Hardcover + PDFs for both versions....
..and it also looks like we may need to fight for this one boys, only 40 slots available.
Check your initiative modifiers.
What time does this go live again?

Aux--if we run out I'll add another level. The only REALLY limited pledges are the leather books.
Aww Bill that's no fun!
And here I was ready to go to cue this.
I would have won too.... I calculate in weapon speed.
I give Auxmaulous! I can't hit anything that far with a pistol anyway. Now with my Marlin that is a different story...

You'd be surprised at how good the WiFi is in Rappan Athuk. Tsar, not so much.

Probably due to Tsar's stupid pall!!!!!

It's the Pall, I know.
