The Publishing Plan

The group has been discussing how to best format publishing the Mord Mar campaign setting for a while now. I stumbled across this Kickstarter:
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1409961192/dungeon-crawl-classics-the-chained-coffin

Which got me to thinking more about how I want to format for publishing. Currently, we expect the Kickstarter to look something like this:

PDF version of Mord Mar Source Book $10
PDF version of Mord Mar Source Book + PDF of all Stretch Goals $20
Physical version of Mord Mar - Soft Cover $?? (similar to Dragonspear Castle)
Physical version of Mord Mar - Hard Cover $?? (similar in size to Castle of the Mad Archmage)

Stretch Goals:

XXXX$ Mord Mar Poster
XXXX$ Mord Mar Glossy Maps (Side View, and Attraction Map)
XXXX$ The Goblins of Mord Mar: To the Citadel (Module MM1A)
XXXX$ The Goblins of Mord Mar: Ironfire's Keep (Module MM1B)
XXXX$ The Goblins of Mord Mar: The Corrupted Church (Module MM1C)
XXXX$ Mord Mar Monster Addendum #1 (A booklet with 20ish new monsters for levels 1-3)
XXXX$ Turn all the Stretch Goals into a Boxed Set

Long term, I expect somewhere between 10-15 total Kickstarters. I would like to find a way to reward perennial backers, like alternate cover colors or art. Maybe an additional Monster Addendum or even an exclusive module.

Gen Con Registration

Gen Con registration is on Sunday. I've been spending a lot of time setting up my wishlist. That's why nothing is going on here. Check out the Mord Mar events at Gen Con:

RPG1460521 Thursday 11am
RPG1460530 Friday 9pm
RPG1460534 Sunday Noon

There may be a Wednesday event too. That hasn't been processed yet. . . If you get a ticket, let me know here!

UPDATE
The Wednesday event went live Sunday morning. Then all 4 events sold out during the initial rush for tickets!

Couldn't get one for Gen Con? Plan a trip to Grand Con. That event is going to be crazy! (Here's a hint: 5 GMs)
