Journeys to the West Kickstarter (C&C?)

Hey, gang:

I'm currently leading a sea-based adventure anthology/supplement project for Open Design Games, makers of Kobold Quarterly, set in their world of Midgard, but generic enough to use in any setting. So, I'm wondering the following: If I could convince our great Troll Lord to let us do some C&C conversion on the monsters (and possibly adventures), would you guys be interested in helping to support the project? You know I'm one of you, so I'd do you proud. Here's the link:

Currently, it will be a Pathfinder product. Also, if you sign up at certain tiers, you can pitch adventures, monsters, islands, and the like.

Let me know your thoughts.

That is great news CS! And of course, I would certainly back any effort to convert your monsters to C&C from this module. The Troll Lord would be a silly goose to deny such talent. ;)

For those Crusaders who have not seen Christina Stiles work, it is simply fantastic. The SpirosBlaak setting for d20 is inspired stuff. Also, CS has published articles for Kobald Quarterly. I hate to sound like a gushing fanboy, but it's just great stuff. Consider me a supporter. :D

Of course you can have a license! That would be bad ass!

I can send the paperwork over, just let me know!

The Journey's project has met its minimum, but we'd like to add more word count and art, so please consider helping us!

The kickstarter ends in just 4 days. Currently, putting in just $25 gets you a lot of goodies! I've listed the info below. We are almost at 11K, at which point I sign your softcover copies. Look at all you get for $25! Awesome deal. Hope some of the C&C crew join me on this journey.

Journeys to the West is designed for maximum use in any nautical or edge-of-civilization Pathfinder Roleplaying Game campaign. Backers will participate in brainstorming sessions, and some may add feats, spells, traits, and gear to the book as patron designers.

Backers at the Captain level and above may pitch seven islands, six adventures, eight monsters, and eight pirate lords. Their successful pitches will turn into fully credited design in the Open Design style.

Rally your crew, and hoist the sails! Fantastic voyages await!

Expanded Rewards

If Journeys to the West exceeds the $4,200 funding threshold, you will get more material included in the project: More pages of adventure, more art, more maps, a hardcover edition, and/or rewards given at a lower level.

Details on all the options seem a bit premature now, but Journeys will definitely seen an expanded 128-page book (33% more!) if funding hits $5,500. NOW INCLUDED

An ocean chart poster map for all backers will happen if Journeys reaches $6,500: provided in PDF for $25 and under backers, and in glorious print for bigger backers! NOW INCLUDED

A set of treasure maps. a logbook, secret aboleth glyphs, additional art to show players, deck plans, and other player handouts if Journeys reaches $8,000. NOW INCLUDED

A complete pirate secret society writeup with leaders, monsters, lair, ships, and nefarious plans, a 16-page standalone mini-expansion for all backers if the project reaches $9,000. NOW INCLUDED

If Journeys reaches $10,000, all backers at the $25 level will get a print copy of the softcover book (includes US shipping, requires $10 shipping for international backers). Likewise, at this point all captains also get a copy of the limited edition hardcover instead of the softcover. Bosuns get an expanded reward at this point as well. NOW INCLUDED

All backer print copies will be autographed and numbered if the project hits $11,000.

C&C conversion of the first 5 Journeys monsters is underway. These may show up in an issue of Kobold Quarterly--with Steve's permission.

Looks like the conversion info might go in the summer issue of Kobold Quarterly (tentatively, at any rate). That would be issue #22.
