While we march on toward the next stretch goal, we're thrilled to announce that the Character Tools for The One Ring™ are coming to Early Access on the Free League Unbound dedicated digital toolset next Tuesday, October 6! You’ll be able to build and manage all your characters with easy-to-follow steps, contextual guidance, resource tracking, and more in the character builder and interactive digital character sheet.
To ring in the new release and see the Character Tools in action, join us for a Walkthrough and Q&A livestream on Tuesday at 5 pm CEST (11 am US Eastern / 8 am US Pacific), featuring Free League Unbound co-creator Adam Bradford, project manager Tomas Härenstam, and The One Ring lead designer Francesco Nepitello.
In the meantime, get ready for the Character Tools by updating your pledge with Free League Unbound add-ons as a great way to help reach the next stretch goal!
You just smashed the final stretch goal we had unlocked – a new detailed map of Bree, painted by Francesco Mattioli, will be a full spread in the updated core rules. The map is also now available as a cloth map add-on, ready to be added to your pledge. Thank you for your support!
Also, we have now revealed a new stretch goal: bonus rules for Cultural Rewards. If we reach this goal, we will add this feature to the updated core rules. Cultural Rewards are specific improvements, typical of the traditions of each folk. A Player-hero may spend a Fellowship Phase at home to gain a Cultural Reward as their next Reward, or to replace one of their Rewards with a Cultural Reward.
Keep the momentum up and we'll reach the next goal too!
The 40x30 Inch Cloth Map of the Shire, painted by Francesco Mattioli
Hello!
We hope you all had a very nice weekend, planning your future adventures in Gondor, Rohan and beyond!
Today, we're happy to announce that we can now offer a number of new hotly requested add-ons. All of the below are now possible to add to your pledge:
Eriador Cloth Map
Shire Cloth Map
Moria – Through the Doors of Durin Collector's Edition
Moria – Shadow of Khazad-dûm 5E Collector's Edition
The One Ring Black Dice Set
Please note that all of these are limited in number, as they are stock remaining from previous crowdfunding campaigns and will not be reprinted – so don't delay if you want these collector's items!
On another note, quite a few 5E backers have noted with some disappointment that the Gondor-themed engraved custom dice set stretch goals was only for The One Ring. We have now remedied that and added a full set of Gondor-themed transparent polyhedral dice for The Lord of the Rings Roleplaying 5E – including two d20s engraved with the Rune of Gandalf and the Eye of Sauron. One such dice set is now included in each physical 5E bundle, and additional sets are available as add-ons.
Keep the momentum going and we'll reach the final stretch goal we have currently lined up – a new detailed map of Bree, painted by Francesco Mattioli. If we unlock this goal, the map will be a full spread in the updated core rules, and made available as a cloth map add-on.
We hope you're having a great weekend. We just wanted to let you know that yet another stretch goal has been unlocked, a digital compilation of art collected from all of the compendia in this campaign. Thank you for your support! In total, no less than 14 stretch goals have now been unlocked – check them out below!
Just one more stretch goal remains the current lineup – a new, detailed map on Bree added to the Core Rules manual. Let's go get it!
Art from The White Tower and the Hall of Gold / Realms of the South 5E
Hello!
We're almost 48 hours into the campaign, and the support has far exceeded our expectations – which were already quite high, as we know what a great community there is for The One Ring and The Lord of the Rings Roleplaying out there. Thank you so much!
Since our last update, two more stretch goals have been unlocked: the The Tower Of Triumph bonus Landmark and the Setting Up Camp bonus rules. Next up is a digital art compilation and a new detailed map of Bree painted by Francesco Mattioli, to be added as a full page or full spread in the updated Core Rules manual, and made a available as a separate cloth map.
Lets keep the momentum going and we'll reach those too!
On another note, some backers have requested separate pledge levels for the new Collector's Editions volumes, and we're happy to oblige – these have now been added to the mix.
