Incline OSR Games - Official thread

The pledge manger isnt up yet but they confirmed in the comemts of update 20 you should see prices go dowm for shipping.

The shipping issue is being resolved. Your shipping price should go down. It was stacking add ons with the pledge prices so we are working with BackerKit.

That can happen if the package gets bumped from one weight category to another. For instance, my global mailing rates for up to 500 g are about $7, but at 501-2000 g, it suddenly jumps to $25 (and from 2001 g, it would be a really unpleasant $66!). Splitting the order can help keept the costs down, but not for weightier items.

Nobody is happy about this, but postal prices have increased significantly in the last decade or so, particularly for international shipping.

Two 25-page softcover books won't bump it two categories, that's the bug. It shouldn't even bump one, if you ask me.

Kevin Crawford's Worlds Without Number kickstarter went live about 75 minutes ago and it's reached its goal already. I splashed and went for the printed book since it's not being printed in China this time around.

Man, this fall has been really bad for my credit card...

 

[Bara]

I like how on the WWN kickstarter he has a image of a roaring dragon underneath the words stretch goals and it's immediately followed up by "There are no stretch goals planned for this project."

Baller move I got to say.

Also If I understand it right if I back this project at $25 dollars the code provided covers the cost of the book but I'll just have to pay for shipping?

 

[Stormcrowfleet]

Kevin Crawford is the only one I bought a book from in the OSR. The other stuff I use is TSR D&D (but I highly respect and use online tools for OSE). Cool for him to get it that quick.

Yes. Based on previous experience wtih DriveThru's POD books, the POD version won't be quite as nice since the quality is closer to what you'd get if you printed the PDF on your own printer, but the differences will be negligible for actual reading and playing purposes. I'm getting the offset printed book anyway because I'm a bit of a collector.

By the way, the KS is currently sitting at over $100K.

(Happy 1000th message, me!)

Nice, Exalted Funeral fixed the OSE shipping prices. I'm down to a total of $28, that's acceptable.

 

[Bara]

Sweet now I can stop checking every day to make sure I get my pledge survey done. Can't wait to get my hands on those rules and adventure books.

Now to play a game of SWN or use the free material from WWN to try the system before the kickstarter ends.

 

[Sacibengala]

Yeah, they fixed it. Mine is 34 now. Pretty Steep if you ask me, but at least it is not 54 as it was before.

No, he is just aggressive. I talked to him many times. He can be an asshole, but he always respond and don’t ignore. I’ve seem him block only people that actively tried to attack him, and he always attacks back before he blocks.

 

[Alex]

Or people who make fun of porn actors. He doesn't like those as well, for some reason.

Pounding out shitloads of content under the CUBE WORLD moniker, suing people, and not much else.

That I'm aware of. I haven't been playing attention.

Apparently I meant "heading" not "moniker". Sue me.

Dang it what is with this month and all these kickstarters.

Troll Lord Games is doing one on the 12th also

This is so they can print out a new set of Castles and Crusaders players hanbooks as supply is down along side some new books like the "Adventurers Spellbook"

 

[Bara]

So Welch of the Things Mr. Welch is no longer allowed to do in a rpg list has been doing a video series on Mystara lore and is 189 episodes deep over the span of three years.



While its not to some peoples tastes I love the setting. So watch and enjoy maybe find some ideas to use in your own games if not the setting itself.

Pulp fantasy setting is best fantasy setting!

Vacillating among "VIHAN LAPSET: VASTARINTATAISTELIJAN OPAS", "MYRSKYN SANKARIT: PEUKALOISPRINSSI", and "SALAISUUKSIEN KIRJA". Those are some great titles.

(I hope they don't mean mundane stuff like "Lords of Darkness" and "Keep on the Vastarintataistelijan")
