The forest is the heart and lifeblood of fantasy, from sun-dappled fairy glades to tangled thickets infested with monsters, and if you are a fan of classic RPGs adventure, this one is for you! 3... 2... 1... LAUNCH!!!
The Forest Kingdom Campaign Compendium Kickstarter is HERE!
This incredible accessory incorporates our entire series of River Kings/Kingdom-Building Adventure Path Plug-Ins for Pathfinder and 5th Edition, most of which have never been available in print before. In addition to classic LG adventures like Cold Mountain and Horns of the Hunted, you'll find marvelous monsters from the Boreal Bestiary and Coldwood Codex, magnificent magic items from Treasury of the Kingdom, ready-to-play characters from Conquering Heroes, and incredible new rules subsystems for fey in Faerie Mysteries and Faerie Passions. Stretch goals will provide not only enhanced artwork but also an ever-expanding bestiary of beasts of the wild. PLUS bonus goals also will bring you incredible never-before-seen content including new forest feats, archetypes and character options, as well as the long-awaited rules for royal tournaments and festivals of every kind! You also can add on copies of our award-winning kingdom-building and mass combat books like Ultimate Rulership, Ultimate Battle, Ultimate War, and Kingdoms for Pathfinder or 5E, or our classic Gothic Campaign Compendium if you want to add a taste of horror to the heart of the forest!
The book's final page count depends on stretch goals, but we expect it to end up around 280-300 pages, and almost all of the planned written content (including stretch goals) and artwork is already done, and we have artists standing ready to take on newly sponsored artwork chosen by YOU, should any of you wish to be dubbed Knights of the Woodland Realm or crowned as part of the Royal Court of the Forest!
This Kickstarter project runs through Monday, April 24th, but you want to get your pledge in TODAY, and help us spread the word. Please like, share, +1, retweet, and comment when you see us on social media to help spread the word and make sure everyone knows about this book. If you've got questions, let us know on Facebook, Google+, Twitter (@LegendaryGamesJ), the Paizo messageboards, rpg.net, ENWorld, or directly by email at makeyourgamelegendary@gmail.com!
We appreciate the support of so many fans and friends and all you do to help make our work possible, and we hope you that this exciting new book will absolutely Make Your Game Legendary!
Been waiting so long for this and I am backing the honey out of this as much as I feasibly can. A pity I missed snatching that backer #1 bragging right though, heh.
I sincerely hope this Kickstarter will have all of its stretch goals met. :)

So, that was a fast and furiously forested first 24 hours! Not only did we fund in just FOUR(est) hours, but we blew past our first bonus goal in the first 24 hours as well! With almost 100 backers already in the woods, we're almost halfway to our next stretch goal too, with forest-flavored feats and class options galore!

This is truly tree-mendous. I almost cannopy-leaf (okay, that's a stretch) how well this going. I definitely think this is going to sap some bank accounts (including mine, curse you shipping costs!). I'm definitely rooting for this to go a lot further and can't wait for it to chlorophyll a space on my bookshelf.
Alright, I'm done. I tried stamen the course and couldn't.

Congratulations on how well you've done with this, and for getting Wicked Witches onto the list of non-Paizo top ten last week.

Wow, canopy-leaf. That's actually rather brilliant. :)
Just a thought: you may want to share a link to this Kickstarter in the Kingmaker Forum (and other similarly adventure paths forum that include a lot fey and/or forest adventures). A lot of DMs for the Kingmaker AP could really mine this compendium for ideas.
Cheers!

If you go down to the woods today
You're sure for a big surprise
If you go down to the woods today
You'll never believe your eyes.
We really are not having you on
You're sure to have tremendous fun
This Legendary Games kickstarter is fantastic!
Edit: sorry, just in the mood for word play today.
Heh, nice, Chemlak. I would join in but it's hard to come up with some prose if I do not have music in the background.
Keep it up thought! :)

I think that's a fine idea, though as a matter of professional courtesy as a 3PP we don't tend to directly post things into discussion forums for official Paizo products.
Now, if some enterprising fan were to do such a thing, far be it from us to object! I'm sure we'd be happy to come and comment there. :)

Aaaand, we're less than $500 away from ANOTHER stretch goal, with a bounteous collection of barbaric boreal beasties! Thanks to Rick Kunz and the Paizo web team for giving us a shout-out on the store blog. Spread he wood and get #IntoTheForest!

It is a time for ROYALTY in the Forest Kingdom Campaign Compendium for 5th Edition and Pathfinder, as we chop down ANOTHER stretch goal and pass the $10,000 mark - bringing on board a bevy of new boreal beasties and opening the way to the next stretch goal, the long-awaited ROYAL TOURNAMENTS! You'll find traditional archery and jousting, of course, but so much more with festival challenges and tournaments for all kinds of characters!
Plus, we give you a peek inside what it means to pledge yourself to become part of the Royal Court of the Forest, and all the goodies that entails, courtesy of one of our backers who has already brought us his royal scion to be included in the book!
Check it out and spread the word to every 5E fan and Pathfinder player who loves wilderness adventures, faerie forests, and exploration and conquest on the borderlands - it's time to go #IntoTheForest!
As someone who bought all the listed products, this book would have as new content all the stretch goals and...? I'll probably back anyways, i simply want to set my expectations.

First of all, thanks for picking up all of those PDFs!
As for what's new, he stretch goals will be new content. Some of it is mythic fey creatures, which depending on voting will include a mix of existing mythic fey creatures and new forest-themed mythic monsters that have not yet been released. We will also likely do a bit of light editing to revise things that might need it from those early books.

Link fixed.
Any chance of a possible future stretch goal being the addition of more Kingdom Building materials (new buildings, hex improvements, etc) or revision of a class like the bard, cavalier, or ranger (like you did with the Legendary Paladin or Legendary Rogue)?

We might add a little bit more kingdom stuff in here, but I think a full class book is outside the scope of what we want to add. Part of the plan with this Kickstarter (and upcoming campaign compendiums like it) is that we be fast on delivery, which means we are finishing as much work as possible before even launching, even for stretch goals, so we don't want to add anything that is going to drag out the process.

By the way, less than $150 away from adding Royal Tournaments to the book!
Go #IntoTheWoods and back the Forest Kingdom Campaign Compendium!
Eh, wishful thinking on my part, but a gamer can dream, :)
It's pretty impressive to hit 300% your funded goal within three (or is it 4?) days. At this rate, within 12 days the Kickstarter may well hit the last stretch goal listed there. Maybe the next stretch goal could be...mythic options? :D. I can always dream.

It's time to celebrate, because the ROYAL TOURNAMENTS and FOREST FESTIVALS are here! Careening past ANOTHER stretch goal, the Forest Kingdom Campaign Compendium for Pathfinder and 5E just added a BIG piece, with extensive rules for tournaments, festivals, and events to challenge your heroes' strength, speed, stamina, spellcasting, and sociability, and even more fantastic and fiendish fey friends and foes are coming to an ever-expanding bestiary in this book!

Hey, I have no complaints about hitting a new stretch goal EVERY DAY! :)
And as for mythic content... it's not as far-fetched an idea as you might think. Just sayin. :)

And another stretch goal! More beasties to brazenly battle!

I love having unkeyed maps for my virtual tabletop games, :)
What is next at 225 backers? Come on, Paizo forumites, join in the kickstarter - get it for yourself or make it a gift for your GM's homebrewed campaign!
Cheers!

Hey, had a small question here; in the KS, it mentions that some of the stuff in it is written by N. Jolly, but none of the listed books have him as an author as far as I'm aware (please correct me if I'm wrong). Does this mean he's doing something else in this book? I've just really liked what he's done so far, and I wanted to keep up on it where I could.

p.s., it would be amusing to see a collection of in-game drinks based around fey and forest themes for the festivals content (there better be a drinking contest! ;) ). Just saying!
