Re: Any word on Ruins of the Lost Realm?

Well it's August 22 already and no shipping notice yet. I've only briefly glanced at my pdf since I much prefer the hard copy. Hopefully it will come soon, but we've got a couple other adventures in the Bree area before we venture further afield anyhow.

Re: Free League announces The Lord of the Rings Roleplaying for 5E

Well, we can't stand the ToR rules and have been playing this game using White Box so I can't see much issue with converting it to 5e. I think it depends on exactly what people want from their Middle Earth Roleplaying experience. We just want to game in Middle Earth. I don't need a bunch of gimmicky...

Re: The One Ring Kickstarter sets shipping

I received my package a couple of days ago. This is my first hard copy of a Free League game, and my summary is: These folk do not screw around.
Except with dice, quality control, proofreading, misbound books and choosing shipping companies....

Re: Lifepaths Stretch Goal

I believe Tomas said in the latest video update that the pdf material might be available in print at some future date. That would be great! I really dislike pdfs. Feels too much like I'm reading something for work. I need my physical copies as they'll inevitably look better than the spiral binding ...

Re: Physical Goods Very Nice

Still waiting on a shipping notice as well. Had the My Preciousss level with both the regular & CE book and extra dice set. Hoping I don't get one of the misbound starter set books. Skimmed the pdfs, but I really want the hardcovers, especially as I'm converting the system over to White Box and ...

Re: TOR Box Set Availability

Yeah; some of the online retailers here in the US are listing it for pre-order. And at the rate they're fulfilling KS pledges you might get it before those of us who actually backed it!

Re: Kickstarter: Fulfillment has Started!

Still not crazy about the rules, but judging from the unboxing video, the game looks good in hard copy. However, the Eriador map still looks bad because of how they wrote "Eriador," which is a shame because the Shire map looks fantastic. Looking forward to getting my pledge & if we ca...

Additional KS PDF Releases

Have they said if the stretch goal pdf releases are coming out together or one by one? Just curious. Most interested in the Strider mode material. I'm not on facebook or in the Discord so I thought they may have posted something there.

Re: Getting Excited for the Printed Materials!

Actually I'm in the opposite camp. While the books themselves look okay, the rules look awful. Can't see my players enjoying this convoluted mess of a game. So at best we'll convert it to a system we actually know and like. Otherwise, I may just flip the books once they arrive, which is getting fur...
