Project FAQ
An advanced version of D&D 5E released by EN Publishing in 2021 after a million dollar Kickstarter crowdfunding project. You can find out much more about it at https://www.levelup5e.com/ and EN Publishing has made an amazing rules reference website at https://a5e.tools/ .
Both! They are optimized for Level Up: A5E which is backwards compatible with original D&D 5E and compatible with D&D 2024.
There are a series of Class Drilldown posts at the top of www.mikemyler.com.
There are 5 different appendices covering rules for Radiation, a new heritage/species (smart walkers), creatures, dozens of feats, a ton of equipment, a system for building customized melee and ranged weapons, magic items for every class, and more than 30 spells.
Your PDFs will be with you February 2026 Digital (PDF) rewards will be fulfilled as soon as the crowdfunding ends. Your books will be with you March 2025 As soon as addresses are collected and the funds transferred all of the books will be ordered, printed, and shipped—they should arrive at your homes before April.
You'll enter your address in the pledge manager. Once the pledge manager has closed you will not be able to update your address in the Backerkit platform, but if your address changes before your books arrive please message me directly and we'll get you sorted.

It is! This is my first crowdfunding project on Backerkit but my 18th crowdfunding project overall.
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.
