Defenders Assemble!

Greetings, Heroes, we’ve got great news for you today!

Shadows of the Northern Woods campaign PDF

The responses to our previous Update seem to be overwhelmingly in favor of having an additional copy of theShadows of the Northern Woods campaign as a separate PDF file, in addition to the Core Book.

What does that mean? Quite simply, if you’ve backed at the Adventurer level or higher, you’ll receive an additional PDF containing the Shadows of the Northern Woods campaign, for free, in addition to any other reward that comes with your pledge level.

Just to be clear: the campaign will also be included in the Core Book, this PDF file is just an extra that you’ll get at no additional charge.

Unlimited Defenders

By popular demand, we’re also unlocking the number limit on the Defender pledge level!

We didn’t think that GM Screens would have been so popular, but they’ve literally vanished in a matter of hours.

We don’t want you to be forced to expose your secrets to the prying eyes of the Darkmaster (or of your players…), so we’ve decided to make the GM Screen available to anyone. Plus, Andrea Piparo’s art just looks Epic on it.

In other words, no more limits on the standard Defender pledge level. If you backed at Hero level or lower, and want to get a physical GM Screen with your rewards, you can change your pledge to Defender by clicking the Manage your pledge button, then Change your pledge, and selecting the Defender level.

Alternatively, you can just wait until the end of the campaign and select the physical GM Screen as one of your Add-Ons from the pledge manager.

In the immortal words of Judas Priest: “Come on let's tell the world! We are Defenders of the faith!”

A Great Victory!
