Kickstarter - The Complete Virgin Mine AD&D/5E Mega-Dungeon!

I've been following Art of the Genre for years now. Scott's work is always high-end, and the artists he secures for the covers are second to none. His orange spin releases fit nicely with the orange spin AD&D 1e books.

The Complete Virgin Mine is Scott's latest Kickstarter and is a compilation of seven parts initially released as soft-cover adventures (Folios), brought under one hardcover, orange-spined book. Or snag the individual releases - but then you won't have the orange spine...

I really need to organize my 1e collection/Folio Hardcovers to get that full "orange shelf" look ;)

The Complete Virgin Mine is a 7 part mega-dungeon with another series of rooms in the higher levels that feature access to 'the shadow realm' in which even more monsters can be encountered!  It is a project that is four years in the making, and has taken on a 'life of its own', much like that original Roslof Keep campaign (see below). As this project compiles 6 Folio adventure modules (#26-#31) and 5 mini-adventures, and a bonus 'boss monster' encounter for the final endgame (is the book cover giving anything away?) I thought it was important to offer the first five modules in both physical and PDF format, AND also produce Folio #31, The Dungeon of Death, which can also funded ONLY in this Kickstarter (for all you looking to keep your Folio collection complete!).

Kickstarter - The Complete Dungeons at World's End (OSR & 5e)

1E & 5E gaming mechanic swords & sorcery dungeon series done in classic orange spine hardcover style.

When Art of the Genre publishes its "Orange Spine" releases, they look perfect on my bookshelf next to my later AD&D 1e releases. The orange may be a little off, but I think that is more likely due to 40-some-odd years of discoloring of the originals than anything to do with Scott's current releases ;)

Welcome to the newest 'orange spine' adventure book from Art of the Genre, The Complete Dungeons at World's End!  This book compiles two adventure sets, as well as includes new and never before released content that helps expand the sets.  The adventures revolve around explorations into the unknown, one into the wild magic highlands of a distant island and the other mounts and an expedition into the ruins of an empire in the arctic north.  All adventures inside the book are laid out with incredible maps and in both classic AD&D and new 5th Edition D&D mechanics.  This book, and the adventures within, have been years in the making, and I look forward to seeing this collection help DMs take both high and low-level characters through the challenges of settings on the edge of the known world.

What is within these pages? This book will contain two complete adventure campaigns with incredible maps, new monsters, deadly  NPCs, and all manner of dungeon-crawling wickedness.  The first adventure set is for higher level characters, levels 10+, and the second is for new characters, and both are rendered mechanically in both 5th Edition Dungeons & Dragons and classic Advanced Dungeons & Dragons formats.

Who’s it for? ALL gamers, both new gamers and old-school gamers as it is easily expandable or playable as is. Each trilogy introduces the characters to new 'micro-settings' adaptable to most sandbox worlds and gives the characters good opportunities to explore and dungeon delve. The base mechanic will be for AD&D with 5th Edition stat blocks in grey.

If you haven't been grabbing The Folio as it releases, this is a great way to catch up, as well as simply being a great-looking addition to your gaming collection.

The Complete Dungeons at World's End is 15 bucks in PDF and 45 bucks in print plus PDF. There are further options with the addition of prior releases you can back for. All of the "Orange Spine" books are 128 pages.

Kickstarter - FAST Core Rulebook - Multi-Genre RPG System (from the creator of The Folio)

I've known R Scott Taylor for a number of years. His Folio series has been consistently very good to amazing in quality and content, and he certainly knows old-school gaming. This is why I am in for the $80 "Kitchen Sink in Print" level for the FAST Core Rulebook Kickstarter. Sure, I don't need yet another RPG, but I do need a streamlined multi-genre RPG. I no longer can parse GURPS like I used to when I was younger ;)

FAST is a multi-genre tabletop RPG that streamlines game play for both gamemasters and players alike.  The purpose of FAST is to help over-burdened users create and play fun scenarios without hours or prep time.  The system revolves around a single die, the D10, and character creation and updating is made to reflect the ease of first generation RPGs in which multiple books, massive skill trees, and weighty feats and additions didn't quickly send character builds out of control.  At its core, FAST is about quick fun, without the headaches of overly 'crunchy' and rules heavy systems.
