We want to thank you all again for your support and patronage, you really made this all happen!
We've been hard at work getting everyone's pledges out the door! Progress has been slower than we'd like; we've been sending out pledges in batches as quickly as possible, but we haven't moved through the whole pile just yet. We are looking to finish up shipping by the end of next week!
When you receive the notification that your pledge has shipped, please allow a few business days for the post office to scan and update your tracking number. Sometimes packages are not scanned until they reach the distribution center, which can take a few days.
To all of you who haven't received your pledge yet: thank you for your tremendous patience. We hope that the final product is worth the wait, and that you love the new book as much as we do. If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out anytime at [email protected]!
If you want to hop on board to receive the Adventurers Backpack's companion book, the Adventurers Spellbook,click here for more information on the campaign! The Spellbook contains all of the information you'll need to play or run spellcaster classes in your Castles & Crusades game.
Every spell ever published for Castles & Crusades is included; the entries that require it have been thoughtfully rebalanced, and all OGL content has been removed. A veritable mountain of new content has been added, with more to come depending on how quickly we crash through our remaining stretch goal (if you have any ideas for new stretch goals by the way, do please let us know what you want to see included!).
Strongholds: A king must have his castle, and a wizard must have their tower. Inside the Adventurers Spellbook, you'll now find write ups for abodes and strongholds catered to each spellcasting class.
Specializing Arcane Casters: Create a psionic, necromancer, conjurer, and more! Groups of spells have been thoughtfully bundled for specific caster types, plus bonus abilities to help you bring new classes to life, beyond what's offered in our Players Handbook.
Divine Spheres: We've organized the divine spells of C&C and beyond into spheres, tied to certain types of deities; the gods of war, nature, chaos, and more may now grant their divine champion specific abilities and specialized spell lists.
The Gears of Spellcasting: From druidic plants to sacred clerical garbs to all the manifold components you'll find in a wizard's pouch; everyone's spellcasting power comes from somewhere or is amplified by something. Bring more flavor and vibrancy to your caster's practice!
Spell Casting Gone Wrong Tables & Rules: When the knight rolls a nat 1, they drop their sword, trip, fall down the stairs, impale themselves on the 10 foot pole. But what spectacular failures are afforded to the humble mage? We’ll include a set of easy-to-reference rules to unleash critical failure for your spells. It's not all bad; if you're not crying over the result, you'll probably be laughing.
Scrolls; Their Creation & Use: Magic scrolls can be found in unearthed crypts, dungeons, and keeps; the best ones, however, are now found in the Adventurers Spellbook REFORGED. Explore new specialized scroll options and quickly calculate their cost in the rare event your party finds themselves purchasing one legitimately— or selling one on the black market.
New Publication - Aranowl: The Citadel rises! Aranowl (AR-ah-nawl) is a bastion in the world of Aihrde. It rides high upon a rocky sea stack; a sprawling, walled complex that serves as both a wizard’s guild and the world’s font of knowledge. Set your next campaign in the College of Magi, the Wizard's Guild, or the Great Library.
What's Next?
Our $80,000 Stretch Goal will unlock Spellcasting As Trade; all the tools you'll need to build arcane merchant NPCs, charge cold hard cash for your services as a healer, and more.

When we sent out the last update for Castles & Crusades Adventurers Backpack REFORGED!, we left out some important language that has confused some folks as well as an issue with the mailing list that also caused all manner problems .
Let me address each problem separately:

When the update when it out for Castles & Crusades Adventurers Backpack REFORGED!, it went to the main mailing list, not to just the backers of this project so many of you were alerted for no reason, creating confusion for those that actually did not back the project and suggesting that they did.
If you cannot login and have reason to think you did back it (email receipt, messages etc.) or just need to verify, please email us (see below) and we can look in to it and get you squared away, one way or the other.
I would like to apologies to everyone, I think I was going a little to fast and didn't catch every last piece of getting this out properly, I will work harder in the future to make sure this doesn't happen again.
Please email us/me here: [email protected] if you need any assistance with the above or anything else.
