This is one of our all-time favorite holidays, celebrated each year. It's an occasion for change and new surprises, and we've got three cool changes for you here to day:
First up, are you missing your Monthly Monster Hunt?
If so, it could be because many of you - almost 200 - grabbed their free copy of Conquest, but a little less than half did not sign up for marketing email when they did it. It's a checkbox at the bottom of all of our online store purchases.
You can also sign up for our email at the bottom of our homepage, shown below:
So, if you've missed one or both of the Monthly Monster Hunt series, #1: Tale of the True Tarasque or #2: Talos, Man of Bronze, the Original Iron Golem, sign up now! Use the homepage signup or grab Conquestif you've not already.
Next up, our new adventure path, the philosophy-focused Witch's Wyrd, launches next Tuesday, June 17, with a funnel adventure, Old John Stuart's Mill, and a 9AM PST launch party!
Author Archie Fields III discussing how he started introducing D&D to his philosophy class at the University of Calgary
Exploration of the use of gaming in the classroom to teach, through Archie's experience, much as he spoke about at GenCon 2024
The Witch Pleas focus on weaving education with gaming
Comparisons of the 5e version of Old John Stuart's Mill with the DCC version
Discussion of The Curse of Endless Hunger, the new spell in Old John Stuart's Mill, and how it can spawn legions of zombies - and worse undead!
So follow the project on BackerKit to receive the livestream link this weekend, and to back this funnel/1st level adventure for DCC and D&D 5e respectively, Old John Stuart's Mill!
As with many of our Witch Pleas titles, it's not just an adventure, it's a setting and a source for scholarship, with New Spells, New Magical Items, Rumors & Secrets, Curses, Philosophical Encounters and a Scholarly Essay on Philosophy in Fantasy RPGs!
Lastly, we have our printing updates. I'm still receiving quotes from printers, not because I'm shopping around, but because so many details of Campfire are custom, like the case and cards and quantity of Story Sheet booklets. All of the printers we're talking with say they can do it, but none have arrived back with a definite quote yet.
Thanks for joining us on this thrilling journey, Campfire fans. You've joined our team during a time of major transition - moving shop and moving from paperback booklets to a stainless steel set with waterproof cards. It's taken longer than we had hoped, but we appreciate your great energy, gratitude and patience.
Thanks for being the magic within Witch Pleas - and enjoy all the free adventures and new projects ahead!
