Supported! Your page doesn't seem to keep a "live" total on number of backers, though. It still said zero backers even after I placed my order via the Amazon link.

Its the most unique city I have seen in years. I never saw it before you made the C&C version. I'd put it up there with Bard's Gate and Ravens Bluff.

Might just be on my end, but the pdfs I extracted from the zip archive all had errors ... redownloading now.

EDIT:
PDF corruption confirmed. The zip archive is fine but the map pdfs throw up a pop-up error dialogue saying "Internal error" and don't display and the actual book yields the following messages: "Internal Error", "Cannot extract font XYZ ..." and "insufficient data for an image" and although you can read most of the text, there are quite a few display errors.

Same problem for me too. All the pdfs had internal or drawing errors and would not open for me.

Sorry for mixup! I'm pretty sure this one lands at my feet as I uploaded the files to Tim.

I've been busy skimming for the past hour or so. Great stuff so far, definitely lots of fertile ground in there and lots of stuff I can steal and integrate into my game world.

I have the old version of Bluffside, so I'm wondering what's new in this edition/version?

We added a few new POI's but not tons of new stuff, but it is nice if you play C&C since all the conversions are done for you already.

The Aristrocat class is new. Also races, classes, spells, magic items, and monsters were pulled from the old web enhancements. There is also a bunch of spells from the SRD included.

Yes, the book included miracle, the cleric's wish. Fortunately it's easily banned, just like the other wish-type spells.

Okay, thanks everyone for answering my question. I decided to order a print copy and am crossing my fingers that we reach the $4K level.

I very briefly describe all the races that are available in Bluffside if you're interested, check it out over at the Castles & Crusades Facebook page.

I actually quite like soft cover, and preordered one but I sure hope we can hit the hard cover goal!
