What it says on the tin. 13 days to support as I post this, already met its goal.

How will you know if their stuff is right for your game? Their stuff comes in two major flavors: Midgard is a Norse setting but with heavy emphasis on monster-ish races. If you like shifters, goliaths, aaracokra, yuan-ti purebloods, etc. they have lots of this flavor logically blended into a Viking era. Their other side is British/Irish fairy tale, this would be the Tales of Margreve and Courts of the Shadow Fey series. If you like the Tuatha dey dannan, the legends of the sons of don, the mabinogion, etc. these settings will appeal to you. Their creature codex and tome of beasts had stuff for both and some for generic fantasy settings. They also do generic fantasy stuff, but I have found these two themes are their strong points.

I asked in the comments if there was an option to get the FG integration of the Lairs PDF, and they responded that if you back at the FG VTT level you will get access to all the content in FG. Seems like a great deal.

I also asked if you wanted everything (physical, pdf, and VTT) was there an option for that given the limited set is sold out. They replied that both VTT versions will be added as options at the backerkit stage. Apparently some people also had wanted both a roll20 and FG version so this was their solution. Which means you can pick any backing level you want and then add FG at the end.

This is good to know Gavin. I was looking at this and I wanted just the hard cover and FG version and didn't see that option for some reason. So if I'm understanding what you are saying, I'd just order the hardcover and then the option for FG will be added later when they send out the survey?

That's the way I understand it Dax. With all these Kickstarter campaigns, if you order one thing, you can always make changes to you pledge when the Pledge Manager survey comes out (after the Kickstarter ends). As long as the item is something the company is willing to offer a la carte, you should be able to add it to your pledge. Sounds like they're going to let us mix and match pretty freely.
