Kickstarter - Ernest Gary Gygax Jr.'s Marmoreal Tomb Campaign Starter

[Varsuuk]

Doh, I was like hmmm interesting, started to look and consider what I would get for what amount when realized it was long over... baaaaah!

I need to watch out for Undead threads more carefully

So, John, did you get it and if so, what did you think about it?

Nothing delivered yet from this. As far as I'm aware, nothing has been said about a FG conversion but since they're building for I think OSRIC compatible with added on guidelines on conversion to other iterations, probably unlikely unless someone takes on the mantle for personal use.

There were some health related delays/setbacks I believe, plus I don't think I've seen a small company effort that delivered on time if it wasn't basically done before fundraising started.

I pledged at the $90 level. Hoping for good things.

[Varsuuk]

Well, hopefully gets done sooner than later!

There is an official google + page for this if you want to follow the progress on it. https://plus.google.com/u/0/communit...09045896272164

I've no doubt that it will take longer than expected. But, if you can't trust Ernie Gygax, then who can you trust.

Apparently they're trying for mid-2017.

DAAAMN... all those really cool WoG hex maps are making me envious.

I'd love for them to sell some VTT maps of those.

Anyone familiar with if this is available from them or others - I am not going to be able to plow though the whole thing on the groups any time soon.
I did skim some and saw them recommending to get the WoG Folio (check) and the Castle Zagyg / Yggsburg (?sp) books (ahem... isn't that long out of print from C&C??) and then BRW's Mad Archmage pdfs (could get). Umm with that MIDDLE step missing no luck.


IF no official maps, do we know of any really artistic mappers that have put out their own hex maps or otherwise on the Nets?

Check out Anna's site:

Yes Anna has the best maps out there if you want Greyhawk content. She compiled information from pretty well every source available for all of her locations.

I love the big Flaeness maps (one jpeg was broken, I'll check back for it) gonna check the others.

i was envisioning the old school more colorful non realistic / arty one of the 1980 folio. But that's probably more than half nostalgia.
