Project FAQ
DCC RPG stands for Dungeon Crawl Classics Role Playing Game. DCC RPG is published by www.GoodmanGames.com and is an excellent RPG that captures some of the old school feel of adventure gaming coupled with some more modern design choices. If you are totally new to RPGs, this is a great system to start with because it is very easy to learn and supported with a tremendous catalog of adventures and settings.
If you are following rules-as-written for XP and leveling, these adventures are not large enough on their own to get PCs all the way up to level 5. Judges may wish to either adjust the pace of leveling for a faster paced campaigns. However, the book will include an Appendix: O (Other Adventures). This appendix entry will contain a list of 1st and 3rd party DCC adventures that thematically fit with The Conquest of Chaos. In a larger campaign, adventures within The Conquest of Chaos would be considered "touchstone" adventures.
Yes, but you have to wait until after the campaign ends! Once it's over, we'll offer various PDF and physical products.
For stretch goals on the BackerKit platform, click the "Community" tab at top of the project, then look at the "Achievements" section or on the Campaign page.
The Foundry VTT support will include maps, token images, and journals. The Foundry package will be available separately later via DriveThruRPG but at a price higher than the $10 add-on price. Normal file images of the maps will also be included for use on other VTT systems such as Roll20.
Not in the slightest. Everything is crafted by the human mind.
I am able to cross-reference Kickstarter campaigns that I was the "Kickstarter creator" on. If your Backerkit email is the same as your Kickstarter email, then you will automatically be added to the "free sticker" list if you backed one of the following projects: The Brimstone Cradle & The Hills That Hunger Mysteries of the Multiverse for MCC RPG Elfland: Beyond The Fields We Know (DCC RPG) The Technomancer of Candy Mountain (MCC RPG) Big Trouble For A Little Blood & Visitors To Fairhaven Bloody Barbershops & Sanguine Scissors (DCC RPG) If your Backerkit email is different, please send me a message and I will manually add you to the "free sticker" list.
Shipping will be charged during the pledge manager phase, after the fundraising campaign is completed. It is estimated around $10 for most backers. We expect products to ship by the end of July 2025. Due to complexity of international shipping, we are only shipping within the USA. The book will be later available through Goodman Games and limited retail distribution.
We offer USA and Canadian shipping. USA based shipping is estimated at about $10. Canadian based shipping is based at about $20. Due to the complexity and expense of international shipping, we are unable to offer shipping in other regions. After backers receive their books, The Conquest of Chaos should become available through Goodman Games and other retailers. If a backer is aware of a fulfillment partner in their region, please reach out to [email protected] with information.
BackerKit FAQ
BackerKit Crowdfunding is an all-or-nothing collaborative funding platform. Creators share their project ideas and set a funding goal with a deadline. Backers pledge money to help make the project possible.
If the project meets its goal by the deadline, pledges are charged and the creator moves forward. If it doesn’t, no one is charged.
Backers often receive special rewards for their support, such as:
- Exclusive products
- Bonus rewards for backing related projects
- Discount pricing
- Behind-the-scenes updates
- Creative input opportunities
Pledging in crowdfunding is a commitment to support the creation of a new product or project. Unlike a traditional purchase, you're not buying an item that already exists. Instead, your contribution helps bring a creative idea to life, and in return, you typically receive rewards (such as the product itself) as a thank you for your early support.
- Select a pledge level with the reward(s) you would like to receive
- Select any add-ons
- Confirm your pledge!
- You are charged only if the campaign meets its funding goal.
- Charges happen when the campaign ends, not when you pledge.
The creator will send you a survey to:
- Ask you for more information about your rewards (selecting options, etc)
- Collect shipping information
- Offer additional items you may want to add to your pledge
- Collect shipping fees (if applicable)
The survey will be sent to the email address we have on file with your pledge. Additional payments are charged when you complete the survey.
Only the project creator and the BackerKit Support Team can see your pledge and contact information. Other backers and the public cannot see your individual pledge amount or personal details.
You can change or adjust your pledge level and add-ons before the campaign ends. After the project concludes, cancellations or changes are at the creator's discretion and may depend on what stage the project is in.
Overtime Mode extends your campaign past its original end time to give backers a final chance to make their pledge. It will add an additional 10 minutes past the end time as long as pledges keep coming in. The campaign will end when there is a 10-minute period without any new pledges.
