As long as you pledge for *any tier before 11:59pm Eastern Standard Time on Friday August 02, 2024 then you will receive it! It will appear in your cart once you have access to the post campaign pledge manager, which is sent to backers about 1 month after the campaign ends. *No Reward and Digital Only tiers will have the option to receive the early backer reward in the Pledge Manager, that way if they decide to switch tiers then they will not loose tier reward. As with all physical items, shipping will then be added to their pledge in the Pledge Manager.

Not as long as you change to another physical pledge! The time you make your initial pledge is always time stamped with your pledge, so even if you upgrade your pledge tier we will always be able to associate you with the first 2-day backer group.

All PDFs will be available as a digital download via BackerKit. Backers will be notified via email when the PDFs included with their pledge are available for download.

Yes! You will have the ability to change your pledge via the Pledge Manager, which will open after the campaign ends.

No, they are two parts of the Vastlands setting.

No. It’s a tribute.

No. While the Guidebook presents a loose and creative old school system for use with Our Golden Age, Ultraviolet Grasslands, and other strange, mind-bending worlds at the end of time, it is not required. You can easily adapt the setting and adventures to most old school or d20 based game systems, such as Old School Essentials.

Good question. Don’t you?

We have no plans right now, but who knows … maybe with a stretch goal?

If you mean whether it covers the same places, yes. But it’s not designed to fit seamlessly together. The Grand Map of the Circle Sea is square. The Grand Long Map is, well, long.

No, it uses SDM - synthetic dream machine - an offshoot. SDM is available for free in web page and pdf form (and I don’t have the link on me right now, hang on)

It’ll be up soon here and on exaltedfuneral.com and on drivethrurpg and on itch.io and the stratometaship patreon. It’s just undergoing some final polishing and Luka has to attach the cover. Throw nice emojis at him to make him work faster.

No. The Vastlands Guidebook is ready, but Luka is still trimming, tucking, and illustrating Our Golden Age and the Mother Machine. He was allowed 250 pages for the book and he’s over that limit. It’s his own fault.

Well, it’s the work of one writer and illustrator, so if he’s hit by a very small bus that puts him in hospital with a minor injury, or if he has to suddenly spend more time taking care of his baby or his dog or his wife, you know, that’s delays right there. Ropes and players and all that!

No. That’s the Temple of the Personalized Noösphere. A place where the immortal humans of long ago could go to live forever in digispiritual immaculate perfection.

Does a person need anything? No, but maybe you want them?

They present characters, places, and items for the Nemesis Ministry story arc in Our Golden Age and the Mother Machine. They also work as a random generator for NPCs, item and technomagical powers. Finally, it is not confirmed that they also work as a bonus card game you can play when your PCs are too tired to roleplay.

Not yet because Luka still has to draw it.

There are four. Polis - for the starting area and peaceful downtime: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SzVEWmi_27U&list=PL1CCI2wbN8ijbFkzWLuHXrWrpl_8DFzNh Road - for the travel sections. Complements the UVG: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8tPsaSPraks&list=PL1CCI2wbN8iib7vW3KnHttRCXBv-M-TxB Agony - for the conflicts: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UVzcJbfoN2w&list=PL1CCI2wbN8iinAnvHAPp9xJ2nhXs_4CHf Jubilee - for the really weird times when players meet the Builders and the Daemons and other weirdoes at the end of time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=la3y-i0qu7Q&list=PL1CCI2wbN8ijwM_D3hJvz7Q5NvaYfn7BM&index=5

That should be pretty easy. There’s a Troika adaptation of the Ultraviolet Grasslands already. Go for it.

Go wild, just make sure to share alike, give credit and reference your sources. We like to see folks having fun, hacking and sharing our games. The Vastlands Guidebook has a third party license based on Mörk Borg’s with more details.

Nope, not directly. Think fair use. You can quote parts of the text or use an illustration by providing its source and context. As for reselling the art and text? That’s a no.

Yes. … Ok, roll d6: (1) it’s happening Long Long Ago (2) it’s happening Long Ago (3-4) it’s happening at the sameish time as the Ultraviolet Grasslands. (5) it’s happening in the Nearmorrow (6) it’s happening in the Longmorrow … That’s a table from the start of the book. The goal is to leave the setting open by design, so each table creates and experiences its own flavor of the Vastlands. It also hopefully removes some burden from the GM’s shoulders on “making everything fit together flawlessly”.

Probably that’s one way to put it, yes.

Ah! Well, on a long enough time scale, all questions are asked infinite times …

Never.

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.

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.

1. Select a pledge level with the reward(s) you would like to receive
2. Select any add-ons
3. Confirm your pledge!

• You are charged only if the campaign meets its funding goal.
• Charges happen when the campaign ends, not when you pledge.

After the campaign ends, you'll receive a survey to pay for any applicable shipping fees, calculated based on your shipping address.

Pay Over Time allows you to split your pledge into multiple payments over a set period. Your card will be charged according to the payment schedule (four monthly payments). Only available for projects that enable this feature. Learn More »

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.

For specific questions about your pledge or the project, you can view the Project FAQ below, search for your answer within the project, or send a message to the BackerKit Support Team or to the project creator.
