Carcosa Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 The only Gloranthan Classic I was unable to get as a hardcopy was Pavis and Big Rubble (have the pdf), I was hoping they would reprint it but it looks like I might have to get the version from this Kickstarter instead.

Steve Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Pledge, pledge, pledge for Soloquest! If you want any of the PDFs for the unlocked stretch goals, don't forget to amend your pledge to add the relevant amount. That way it helps us get closer to the next goal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MOB Posted December 21, 2015 Author Share Posted December 21, 2015 As we're drawing close to the BORDERLANDS stretch goal we'll share a little-known Chaosium fact... one of the authors receiving equal billing on the Borderlands box (alongside such luminous names as Greg Stafford, Steve Perrin, Sandy Petersen et al) was a 12 year old kid. One Friday back in 1979, unannounced, this kid knocked on Chaosium's door and showed some improvements he'd made for the RuneQuest rules. Steve Perrin liked what he saw and asked the boy to come back on Monday. This was his first paid gig. And that kid, Reid Hoffman, grew up to become a self-made tech billionaire... http://www.nytimes.com/2011/11/06/business/reid-hoffman-of-linkedin-has-become-the-go-to-guy-of-tech.html 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOB Posted December 21, 2015 Author Share Posted December 21, 2015 BORDERLANDS unlocked a few hours ago! With four hours to go, we seem to have broken Kicktraq's algorithm, so who knows where we will end up? https://www.kicktraq.com/projects/224590870/runequest-classic-edition Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOB Posted December 21, 2015 Author Share Posted December 21, 2015 59 minutes to go, currently just under 200K. If you want to pledge, better get in while you can... can we reach Trollpak, or will it be a troll bridge too far?... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
