…But you pay just $14.95 for our Starter Collection of three complete titles, including The Midderlands OSR Setting and Bestiary corebook, The Midderlands Expanded, and the location sourcebook The City of Great Lunden. And if you pay more than the current threshold price ($29.95), you’ll level up and also receive all seven titles in our Bonus Collection, including the seven-scenario collection Adventures in Great Lunden, Fighting Folk and Folk Magic of the Haven Isles, three full-length adventures, and The Midderlands Rivers and Lakes.

Only 48 Hours Remaining

After almost 30 days of crowdfunding, we are approaching the final gates. The Midderlands for Fifth Edition Kickstarter ends this Thursday at 2:42PM UTC+0. The project is now counting down in hours not days!

Less than 48 hours remaining!

This may be the best 5E setting book you will purchase this year.

As I write this, we are at 308 backers and just under $12,500 USD in funding (that’s just under £9,600 GBP). As always, I am humbled by the support and pledges offered for what I believe to be the finest third-party setting book for 5E that I have seen. But then, I would say that.

It’s worth owning, even if you have the Swords & Wizardry version, as there is enough difference in its presentation to continue to inspire adventure.

There is still enough time to get on board, and with most of the work completed, it should be fulfilling pretty quickly!
