Hi all,
Hi all, it's been a busy Thanksgiving week and more here at LG central, with multiple family guests in from out of town, and we are thankful for your patience and support as we get things all sorted out. I've finished up our Backerkit survey and submitted it for internal review. Our Backerkit rep will get in touch with us early next week and we'll finalize any corrections or adjustments needed, and once that's approved we'll send out a "smoke test" - an early bird survey that goes to 5% of our backers to do a final live check in case there are any issues. As long as there are no issues (or they are easily fixed), we'll send the survey out to everyone next.
Long story short, we should have Backerkit surveys ready for everyone by the end of the week if not sooner. You'll be able to pay shipping and add any extra items you decide to get, including print books, VTTs, etc. We'll also upload all PDFs here at Backerkit, so anyone who is missing them can get them here.
Once we've got about 80% responses, we'll start locking orders, and once orders are locked and it looks like things are solid, we can start locking addresses and shipping books! The sooner everyone replies to their survey, the sooner we can get everyone's books on the way!
Thanks again and we'll let you know when the smoke test is ready for you next week!
Thanks to everyone for supporting Templars & Tyrants!

We appreciate each and every one of you for jumping on board and making this project a reality. We juuuuuuuust missed hitting 600 backers, with Landisthethief getting in as our final supporter at #599!
I'm downloading backer reports here shortly and I'll be getting out links to products tonight so you can start getting your PDFs! Keep an eye on your email inboxes and we hope you love having some new game books to read over the Thanksgiving break!
IMPORTANT NOTE: We are sending out download links through DrivethruRPG, so make sure that you are logged into your DrivethruRPG account to find the PDF links in your downloadables. We are using the email addresses you provided to us through Kickstarter, so if by chance you have a different email address associated with your Drivethru account, let me know and I can resend links to that email.
Just 5 hours left!!! It all ends at 5 PM (Pacific) tonight!

Hi all and thanks for your spectacular support for Templars & Tyrants! We wanted to send a special shout-out to DaJumpinJak (backer #300) and Miguel Warlock Patreon (backer #400) for pushing us past our milestone markers! Our previous class Quick-Starter, Battlemasters & Berserkers, had a few more backers but lower total dollars with 5 days to go, so I'm excited to see how far we can ride this new class book with your support! We're also curious to know: What class books would YOU like to see Legendary take on for 5E in the future, after having already covered fighters, barbarians, paladins, and antipaladins. Let us know in the replies!
As we've mentioned before, we love being part of a supportive community of game publishers, and we wanted to give a shout-out to some other projects that we think you might enjoy. For 5E fans, Traven’s Travelogue of Treasured Taverns is a delightful compendium featuring an array of distinctive taverns scattered throughout the realm. These one-of-a-kind establishments provide an assortment of delectable libations to satisfy the most parched of throats and a wide range of familiar and exotic dishes to satiate insatiable hunger, plus games, conversations, story hooks, detailed descriptions and history of the taverns and their neighborhoods! If you want more than just a generic mug of ale at the inn when your adventuring day is done, this is a super fun resource book!
We also have had questions from some of our fans as to whether we'd be doing a Pathfinder Second Edition version of Templars & Tyrants. We aren't right now, but we are definitely preparing a PF2 version of our Mechanical Monsters Kickstarter from earlier this year, which we'll be launching probably in December or January, and we also are continuing to work on Mediterranean Monsters for PF2. Meanwhile, my brother-from-another-mother Jonathan Nelson at AAW Games has his Mini-Dungeon Tome II for Pathfinder 2E going right now! Much as the tavern book has an awesome assortment of taverns and neighborhoods ready to drop into your campaign, the dungeon tome is exactly what it sounds like: 120+ easy-to-use one-shot mini-adventures you can drop into your campaign anywhere. Don't bother with boring random encounters! You've got awesome adventure options at your fingertips ready for any occasion and every level, each beautifully mapped and illustrated! We've got more PF2 stuff coming soon, but if PF2 is your bag you can check out this awesome adventure book right now!
Check out all the amazing gaming stuff coming your way this fall and keep sharing the good news about Templars & Tyrants with your friends and fellow fans! See you next Tuesday with fulfillment headed your way!
Thanks for a Legendary beginning!

Hi all,
Thanks for your early pledges to Templars & Tyrants! We hope you are all looking forward to these terrific new expansions to your campaign. Paladins are my all-time favorite class, and adding a truly villainous alternative was a lot of fun, plus adding magic items and spells for glorious good and execrable evil! We want to send a special shout-out to our milestone supporters too, with Anonymous clocking in as backer #100 and GeekGamer as backer #200!
We hope you'll continue to spread the word among your friends and fellow gamers and point them toward our project! We also believe in a strong gaming community that works together so we all grow and prosper, and to that end one of the things we love to do in our projects is send a shout-out for other gamers, especially people who are just breaking into the business. The folks at Legendary Scribes are putting together their very first Kickstarter devoted to the arts of alchemy and potion-making: DnD PotionCraft! Alchemical items took up a full chapter of our Ultimate Treasury project last year, so we are definitely excited to see what they've put together, with a recombinant ingredient system that lets you unleash your alchemical creativity. Check it out and let's have a terrific rest of our project!
