Last Day of the Sale

Today's the last day of the big sale. When I wake up tomorrow, I'm setting all the prices back to normal.

Hope everyone had a good year and here's to an even better 2013.

The Big Book of Graph Paper at Lulu

I finally realized that if I ever wanted a thick hard-backed book filled with graph paper for a reasonable cost I'd have to make it myself, so I just did. I've called it (oh so creatively) The Big Book of Graph Paper and I've just put it up for sale at Lulu for only $25. Couple that with the 26DEC coupon going on right now for 40% off and you've got a pretty good bargain. It's 181 pages of .25 inch graph paper with 11 extra pages of isometric graph paper for 3D doodlings.

I kept the cover very neutral as I expect people to want to use this for their gaming, but I think it's distictive enough to allow the eye to quickly find it on a bookshelf or such. Hopefully, the graph paper spine will stick out on the shelf.

It's the time of year when "Some Assembly Required" can be its own adventure. Best wishes to you and yours.

Advanced Adventures #29: The Doom of Red Rauthim

Thought I should drop a note letting everyone know that I've finished lay-out for AA#29 and sent out the art order. Today feels like a lazy day (snowing) so I may just goof off for a change for the rest of the day.

30% off Hardcovers LULU coupon (20DEC)

As a head's up, Lulu's put up a 30% off hardcovers coupon for today only. You probably wouldn't get a book before Christmas, but it's still a good price.

A Shadowvein Expansion?

So I've got each of the areas in underground player's map below fleshed out (In The Pod-Caverns of the Sinister Shroom, Down the Shadowvein, and The Mouth of the Shadowvein), but on the GM's map  there are about two times as many potential places to flesh out as shown below. Part of me thinks I should slowly work on each area and then release an underground wilderness-crawl. I think that given the relative low-level of the adventures (2-6) it could turn into a good resource for GMs to raid for their own campaigns.

Great Art for Gaming

Daermaa World Map (well part of one at least)

Here's a big overview map of the world I'm setting my adventures in...

Tome of Tomes

Holy Carp, Batman! It's been almost a month since the last tome of tomes. Time to correct that!

The History of the Banthams
Author: William Wisstelthep
Race: Human
Dimensions: 8x8x1
Weight: 4lbs.
Materials: Leather-bound, stoneboard, parchment
Rarity: Rare
Fields of Study: Humankind
Special Knowledge Categories: History, politics & genealogy
Value: 35 gp

This long, dry history chronicles the rise of the Banthams from mean beginnings to the ascendancy of King Arnold IV. Written by the official house historian, the work seriously whitewashes the history of the family. Although most of the major issues are discussed (such as the civil war) they are presented in the most pleasing manner possible and are simply not to be trusted as an authoritative account.

The Witch Mounds - Jan 2013

Here's the cover from The Witch Mounds - an Advanced Adventure releasing in January 2013. This is the first one for us by Keith Sloan. This one was ran at Gary Con IV to much enjoyment.

Bitterroot Briar - Feb 2013

Here's the cover for an upcoming Advanced Adventure due in February 2013. This is the first module by Lang and I like the tone. It's got a great "fairy tale: feeling about it, IMO.

AA Compendium Two Also Sold Out

I've just sold out of Advanced Adventures Compendium Two and I've put it up for sale at LULU for a discounted price just as I did the first one as stated in the prior blog post.

Again, thanks for everyone's support.

10-Year Sale Update

Well, we're 6 days into our big sale and I have to say that I didn't stock as well as I should have. We've ran out of Advanced Adventures Compendium One, AA #20, and AA#15. We're also out of the 1-on-1 Compendium (but I'd expected that - I need to do a complete reprint of that one).

Thankfully, such errors on my part are at least not terrible errors. From a business perspective, it's always nice to underestimate the response to a sale as opposed to an overestimation.

That said, I know there are a lot of people who wanted in on the AA Compendiums, so to help make up for my mistake, I've changed the LULU price of Advanced Adventures Compendium One to something similar to the sales price for our big sale after you use the discount coupon FELICITAS to get 20% off. This way, those who you who really wanted it will be able to get it.

My apologies for running out of stock and thanks to everyone who's made a purchase and my apologies for those who wanted something we're now out of.
