I got Midgard races for 5e last night and it looks great. I'm hoping they'll expand their 5e stuff. Like more adventures...

Shadows of the Dusk Queen is a good adventure and I was hoping they'd release a 5e version. Anyone else interested in more 5e content from Kobold Press like a 5e version of Dusk Queen.

My group loved the two official 5e adventures Kobold Press created, so yeah, I'd definitely be interested in seeing them do more 5e stuff.

I know that Hoard of the Dragon Queen & Rise of Tiamat both got mixed reviews, but I really enjoyed running them, especially Hoard.

All of the adventures, really, but Courts of the Shadow Fey and Halls of the Mountain King especially. Shadows of the Dusk Queen too, but of course you mentioned that already.

Little kobolds are working toward such goals. Adventures and... Other Things We Cannot Name.

So yes, expect more 5E support from Kobold Press.

Are you guys still taking monster submissions for the blog?

I heard about some such during one of your Gamer's Tavern podcasts, the Gen Con presentation if I recall correctly.

Yes indeed, we still publish occassional Monday Monsters on the Kobold Press blog.

So glad you're enjoying Midgard Heroes! I'd welcome any specific comments or criticisms you have, and if you'd be willing to drop a review wherever you picked it up I'd be extremely grateful.

Just echoing the Head Kobold's words above, there is some extremely exciting 5e stuff on the horizon from Kobold Press, and I just wish I could say more. But... there would be consequences. Probably involving spring-loaded pain. So...

Good to see 5th edition getting such love, Dan. I'd love to share my thoughts on Midgard Heroes, as soon as I get the book. I will be able to very soon...

Awesome! I think you'll be pleased with what you see, and I'd love to hear your impressions.

And you know, 5th edition has really hit a sort of magical stride for me, blending my AD&D/2e grognard-ish roots (can I claim full grognard status for that? I'm not sure...)with some of the things I love about the 3rd edition era (meaning all the 3's, up through and including Pathfinder), and even some good things that came out of 4e (which wasn't my favorite, by far).

I have many of the same impressions, and am hoping to really dig into the system and everything that it entails. It's my new favorite, and I only barely touched upon 2nd edition. I'm no grognard by any stretch, but it really appeals to me in a simplistic yet robust way.

To the OP, I'd LOVE to see a 5E version of Shadows of the Dusk Queen. Hopefully we can make that happen at some point!

One of the main things that would need converted to 5E, of course, would be the handful of new monsters in the adventure. Too bad 5E versions of those new monsters weren't already available in a really awesome, massive book of 5E monsters or something ....

Oh well ...

pledged for both books!


Huzzah! An announcement of bestial proportions!

That's the thing, the one I couldn't talk about without risking kobold-inflicted dismemberment. :)
