Clarification: FlexTale Encounter Generator
over 6 years ago – Tue, Jan 30, 2018 at 01:59:28 PM

Quick clarification, as I've gotten a few backer queries: everyone who pledged at a level above Lurker ($1) automatically gets a copy of the FlexTale Encounter Generator (FTEG) PDF.

In the context of the recently-launched and still-active FTEG Kickstarter, this means you get the "General Purpose" FTEG, and a lifetime of free PDF updates, automatically included as part of your Bestiary pledge.

If you're interested in the Context books that have been unlocked as part of that project, or if you're simply a completionist, you can pledge at the "Context-Only" levels to get all of the Context books at an absurd discount: As of this writing, that's another 15 books, for $50 PDF, or $75 hardcover and PDF.

Hopefully this clarifies things.  As always, please let me know if you have any questions or concerns!

Onward!

FTEG: Context-Only Pledge Levels Added
over 6 years ago – Wed, Jan 17, 2018 at 02:46:20 PM

In response to backer requests, I've added two "Context Only" pledge levels to the FTEG Kickstarter.  

For anyone who's already owed a copy of the FTEG via a prior Kickstarter, if you want the Context Books as well, pledge at a "Context Only" level and voila.  

Hope that makes sense. Thanks!

I’ve gotten a few questions about this: to check if you replied to the survey already, or if the original notification from BK was lost, go here and put in your Kickstarter account email address:

https://aquilae-bestiary-of-the-realm.backerkit.com/

Plus I’ll pull the trigger on closing on Friday the 19th to give folks some extra last minute time.

Hope that helps!

New Kickstarter: FlexTale Encounter Generator
over 6 years ago – Tue, Jan 09, 2018 at 06:42:15 PM

The New FTEG Kickstarter

Surprise! It's another Kickstarter project. Check it out here. 

This one is simple: I've finished Version 1.0 of the FlexTale Encounter Generator. As in, it's done. Content's all written. Nearly 100 pages of it. Had to do it anyway as part of developing DO2. 

So why a Kickstarter for something I've already written? 

The simple answer is, backers asked for it. All backers, across all projects, who are entitled to a copy of Dark Obelisk 2, will automatically get a PDF of the FTEG. 

For everyone else, though--and there's hundreds of other backers, now, across more than a half-dozen other KS projects--they don't want to miss out. Dozens of backers from those other projects have asked me if and how they can get on board with the FTEG. Well, this Kickstarter is an answer to those folks. 

Who Gets What 

If you're getting DO2, you're automatically going to get the FTEG. Whether or not you explicitly asked for it, or were explicitly promised it. The FTEG is required to use the DO2 book; I couldn't physically fit everything I needed in a single book without doing it this way. So if you're not getting the FTEG already, and are interested in it... or if you ARE getting a PDF of the FTEG, but want a hardcopy... please check out the new Kickstarter. 

Zero Impact 

This new FTEG Kickstarter will in absolutely zero way impact the timeline, development, etc. of any other product that has been promised, in any other Kickstarter campaign. As I said, not only is it already completed, but I had to create it as part of fulfilling DO2. Future versions of the FTEG will have to happen anyway to fuel other products.
