It sure has been a quiet month for the spirit of this blog hasn’t it. With the chill winds washing over the land, school projects for the fourth grade year, and an actually gig for a third party company (more on that later) the spirit of the blog has gone into a quiet sleep as its master works his fingers off.
As I said on google+ on Monday MEPAcon was amazing and the adventures I ran there were well received! Assault’s 5e version was a hit and I hope to revisit that version of Usarm soon … however, for me the true hit was Pyramid of the Forgotten King. I was very scared running that adventure and while I did end up losing a player to boredom (or play style differences I’m unsure) I gathered a lot of supportive and constructive comments from the group as a whole … enough so that I am going to go ahead and within the next three weeks to start a kickstarter for the project!
Wait … WHAT?!
As it stands at 90% completion Pyramid of the Forgotten King is 30 pages long of nothing but text … of course this is an alpha version of the adventure and some of what I learned at MEPAcon will be added or removed after my 3rd party project is complete (so mid-December). I’ve already started contact the artists and cartographers I would like to involve in the project, getting very rough estimates on the amounts of money needed for their work. I still have some more math to do … but I think the current price point I have in mind works.
No details on who is involved yet because I’m still working on some of that and others I haven’t formally contracted yet. Needless to say I am liking the choices I have so far made!
In other news I am very busy finishing my first Pathfinder adventure for a certain quarterly adventure magazine! I’m having great fun with it and can’t wait to see what the response if from the crew in charge of said magazine … Speaking of Pathfinder anyone willing to look over a manuscript for me and give me some feedback before I submit?
