Hello, blog family. It’s been a minute. I’m happy to inform you all that I’ve just ordered a proof copy of Brink of Calamity for DriveThruRPG. When I receive it, assuming it doesn’t look like total ass, it will go live for sale. About 18 months later than originally intended, but hey, we all do our best.
It’s 180 pages (about 30 of which are a revised/expanded version of Melonath Falls, the rest new) and will be $14.99 in pdf or $21.99 for softcover print (+ pdf for nothing extra - if you get the print version you’ll also want the off to print out table copies of the maps because they’re in the back of the book so using them in play would be a hassle). It includes all of the art Gabor Lux commissioned for the Hungarian version of Melonath Falls plus a bunch of PD stuff and some material from my late father’s sketchbooks but nothing AI-generated. About half of the maps (including a really beautiful wilderness map) were drawn by Sean Stone, the rest are by me (alas) - the dungeon maps rendered with DungeonScrawl but the town and building maps and dungeon cross-sections are scans of my hand-drawn originals, which will hopefully be at least legible (we’ll see when the proof arrives).
The playtest campaign is still going (session #29 coming up next week; the PCs are mostly 5th & 6th level now) so there’s a LOT to play through here, but hopefully there’s enough modular stuff that people who don’t want to commit to running the entire campaign will be able to strip-mine out for their own games.
I put a lot of love be and effort into writing and producing this thing and am pretty proud of how it turned out and excited that it’s so close to the finish line. I hope you’ll buy it when it goes live and enjoy reading and playing it.
