Sales Updates, Reviews and a New Legendary Race

Dungeon Crawl Classics First off, I'd like to note that our first release for the Dungeon Crawl Classics line has broken even in five days. Going forward we will see things called "profit" for any additional sales. We have a second release in playtest for DCC and another that is in the final stages of writing. Reviews: http://www.tenkarstavern.com/2012/07/mini-review-bone-hoard-of-dancing.html http://www.rpgnow.com/product_reviews_info.php?&reviews_id=76676&products_id=103661 Indie+ Participating in the Indie+ bundle has turned out to be a good idea because it has helped make a lot of people aware of our work and the work of other small publishers. If you haven't checked it out there is something like $90 worth of product in it for $4. http://www.rpgnow.com/product/102982/Indie%2B-%5BBUNDLE%5D Pathfinder Roleplaying Game Endzeitgeist is the person that most consistantly reviews our products. Recent Pathfinder compatible products he has taken a look at are: Feh...

Evil Thought #417

Image
Pugwampi Legendary Races: Rakshasa is now out for sale. Currently it is available at Rpgnow and hopefully it will get unstuck from the pipe at Paizo. It looks like Monsters Unleashed V.2 could be out before the weekend. This issue will have clay warriors, quickgrass, knollman, corpse orgies and Fenris Wolf. For my evil thought of the day, I draw your attention to the pugwampi to the right. So my idea, certain to make it into level 2 or 3 of Purple Mountain is for a new magic item called a pugwampi's foot . Similar to a rabbit's foot except it exudes an aura of unluck. So that 10 ft. wide pit filled with spikes, it doesn't look that bad to jump over. <Player attempts> oh, sorry, you need to roll that check twice and take the lower roll. Mhahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.

Legendary Races: Rakshasa by Stefen Styrsky First up, we now exist at the Paizo.com store as well as at Rpgnow. I believe I will be setting things up at Lulu.com as well so whatever your Rpg Shopping venue you will be able to find us. So far I only have the Legendary Treasure series up for sale on Paizo but I will be uploading the rest over the next several days. Secondly, a book that Stefen has been working on for a while is finally done. All the art is in and the layout is finished. Heck, it even has a fancy purple minimalist cover. I expect it will be released tomorrow and I don't want to spoil the surprise so I'm not going to mention its name right now.

Admittedly, Paizo will probably update this in Bestiary 3

But Stefen and I thought we could update the Rakshasa Maharajah from one of the early adventure paths and include it in Legendary Races: Rakshasa as bonus content (until the official update is out). What do you think, is it too powerful like this? RAKSHASA MAHARAJAH Floating serenely with legs crossed over one another, this exquisitely attired being casually examines the curved, long-handled blade in its hands. The face staring contemplatively ahead bears beautiful human features, but from the creature’s neck emerge several fearsome animal heads, each considering a different direction.   RAKSHASA MAHARAJAH                                CR  18 XP   153,600 LE Medium outsider (native) Init  +11, extra initiative  [+7 Dex, +4 Improved Init] ;  Senses  all-around vision, darkvision 60 ft.,  true seeing ;...

Greetings!

Hello everyone, this is the other half of Purple Duck Games here. Well, maybe I should say the other "one-third" since I just write game stuff while Mark gets to do layout and advertising and all the necessary, but boring, things that keep this joint running. Today we release "Legendary Items", a bunch of magical accouterments that become more powerful as their owner gains levels. This series, along with "Legendary Blades" and "Legendary Weapons" is intended to make magic items more integral to a PC's identity. Instead of selling or throwing away useless equipment because it no longer grants enough benefits to a high-level character, the Legendary series attempts to construct items a PC can use over an adventuring career, and also works with the character's unique combination of abilities, skill and feats. We feel this mimics the source material better, and grants the game a more epic feel. Elric never traded in Stormbringer for a better ...
