Feliz Navidad to everyone and thanks for your support of Legendary Games! 

P.S. We have a new project coming in January for you - revisiting our Mechanical Monsters 5E and PF1 project from last January but adding an all-new version for Pathfinder 2E, plus a companion volume, Mechanical Heroes, chock full of player options like ancestries, archetypes, feats, spells, and gear to make your campaign magnificent! We look forward to launching in early/mid January and hope you'll check it out! 

Update on Latin American Monsters Fantasy Grounds plus new Templars & Tyrants for 5E & PF1
5 months ago – Tue, Nov 14, 2023 at 02:24:35 PM

Hi all,

Our Latin American Monsters 5E VTT module for Fantasy Grounds had been stuck in the development hell for a while, but we've recently brought a new FG converter onto the team who has worked with some of our friends at companies like Kobold Press and has begun work to get it finally up and out the door. We appreciate your patience with this last bit of the project and we hope we'll have it ready for you soon! 

We also wanted to let you know about our latest smaller-scale Quick-Starter this month, Templars & Tyrants for 5E and PF1! This project features an 80-page encyclopedia of all things pure good and ultimate evil for 5E paladins, including oaths, spells, magic items, feats, and class options, including an all-new variant antipaladin class, or for PF1 fans a bundle of our Legendary Paladins and Legendary Villains: Antipaladins! Plus over 1000 pages of awesome add-ons for a campaign of crusaders and corruption for 5E, and over 300 pages for PF1. Best of all, it's a QUICK-starter, so we'll have immediate PDF fulfillment as soon as the project ends. This short project ends in just one week, so we hope you'll check it out and share the link with your friends and fellow 5E and PF1 fans!

Islands of Adventure and Mediterranean Monsters!
9 months ago – Tue, Jul 25, 2023 at 06:06:38 PM

Hi all,

When we were running the Boricubos Kickstarter, we shared promotions with our friends at Roll for Combat on their Battlezoo Bestiary for DnD 5E and Pathfinder 2E, in part because of our mutual love of parrot people (a key part of their Indigo Isles setting) and in part because we both just love making amazing books. They have recently launched their full-scale campaign setting, Indigo Isles, and while it's not a specifically Latin American campaign world like the Koboa Kickstarter we shared a few months back, it is an awesome island adventure setting that pairs beautifully with Boricubos, with tons of terrific new races/ancestries, creatures, adventures, and more. Roll for Combat makes great stuff and we think you'll love it. Check it out on Kickstarter for 5E or PF2! 

Of course, we'd be remiss if we didn't also let you know about our Mediterranean Monsters 5E Kickstarter, which takes island adventure in a very different direction with over 140 incredible creatures from the legends and lore of Greece, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Sardinia, and Malta, with a killer team of authors and artists rooted in those cultures. Plus, we've also got the companion Mother of Monsters Adventure Path, inspired by ancient Greece, now expanded to 400 pages of adventures and setting material! Mediterranean Monsters ends this Thursday, July 27th, so you have just 2 days left to check it out! If you loved our Latin American Monsters and Boricubos Campaign Setting, we think you'll love our latest project too! Check it out today and make another part of your gaming world Legendary!

Creatures include (from left, clockwise) the fata (Italy), bicho cidrao (Portugal), lamia matriarch (Greece), ramidreju (Spain), and barlat lakbour (Morocco)

The current Kickstarter is 5E only, but we're already working on PF1 and PF2 versions of Mediterranean Monsters, which we'll be launching in a followup Quick-Starter this fall! 

A spectacular South American Campaign Setting - Just 45 hours left in the KOBOA Kickstarter!
11 months ago – Tue, Jun 06, 2023 at 11:01:18 AM

Hi all,

As always, we thank you for your amazing support of the Boricubos Kickstarter, bringing a ton of terrific material for 5E, PF1, and PF2 rooted in the myths and legends of Central and South America and the Caribbean.  I just noticed a new Kickstarter project that I thought you might want to see as well, Koboa: A South American 5e, PF2 and CFR Setting! 

This project is created by an all-South-American creative team, primarily from Brazil and Ecuador, bringing their stories to life in a vibrant and exciting campaign world with beautiful artwork, killer creatures, and tons of great player options for your choice of systems including D&D 5E and Pathfinder 2E, plus VTT options and versions available in English, Spanish, and Portuguese! This campaign is a great complement to our own Boricubos: The Lost Isles setting, and we hope you'll check it out and support this amazing team in their new project. 

If you want to try before you buy, they've also created a 60+ page FREE preview PDF that you can check out right here to give you a taste of the terrific material inside! 

The Kickstarter is already well-funded with over 800 backers and multiple stretch goals unlocked. It ends in just two days, this Thursday morning, so don't miss it! 

At long last, Amazon International Shipments Incoming! Plus, Asian Monsters for PF1, PF2, 5E, and VTTs!
over 1 year ago – Thu, Sep 08, 2022 at 03:37:42 AM

It has been a mind-shattering grind to hack through the Amazon bureaucracy to unlock our Boricubos books but at last, it is done! The first 20+ packages of international books are on their way, with the remainder on their way soon! Thanks for your patience as we kept going round and round and round with them, but the plus side of Amazon shipments is that they are pretty fast on overseas orders, so books should start arriving in a week or two! 

That leaves only two pieces of unfinished business on this KS:

1.  We have hired a new Fantasy Grounds person to take over the stalled Latin American Monsters 5E module for that VTT. Apologies on the delay in getting this one turned around. If any of you who have pledged for the Fantasy Grounds version would be interested in getting the module for Roll20 or Shard VTT instead, let me know and I can get that version to you right away. If not, hang tight as we work to get this Fantasy Grounds module done ASAP! 

2.  We have about 24 people with missing addresses. I've emailed everyone on that list again tonight, so please check your inbox if you haven't gotten anything from us yet. If we don't have your address, we can't get your books to you! 

Boricubos was a great project that we loved working on, both for its depth of research as well as being able to offer it for all three of our favorite systems: DnD 5E, Pathfinder 1E, and Pathfinder 2E. We ran a number of Quick-Starters last year as 5E-only projects, and this year we're catching up on offering some of those for the two Pathfinder versions, plus offering new add-ons and a ton more VTT support, including right now the Asian Monsters KS for DnD 5E, PF1, and PF2

If you already got the Asian Monsters 5E book last year, this is the same one so no need to get it again. However, if you're a Pathfinder fan (for either or both editions), this is an awesome opportunity to get this killer collection of monsters for your favorite versions. DnD fans who backed the 5E PDF the first time and want to get the print book can use the $1 Special Order pledge level and request a print book for the price difference + shipping. 

Plus, for fans of all three systems, we've been working hard in the intervening year to provide extensive support for Fantasy Grounds, Foundry, Roll20, and Shard VTTs, including complete virtual tabletop assets, creature descriptions, statistics, and artwork, plus VTT modules include the accompanying VTT Pawn Set as a separate ZIP file. All of the following VTT modules are available in Kickstarter Add-Ons (or through Backerkit later on). All of these modules (except of course for Latin American Monsters on Fantasy Grounds) are done and ready to go as soon as we process the backer surveys! 

DnD 5E VTT Modules:

  • Fantasy Grounds: Asian Monsters, Latin American Monsters*, Mythos Monsters, Sea Monsters, Eastern Journey adventure bundle
  • Foundry: Asian Monsters, Mythos Monsters
  • Roll20: Asian Monsters, Latin American Monsters, Legendary Ninjas
  • Shard: Asian Monsters, Latin American Monsters, Mythos Monsters, Sea Monsters

Pathfinder 1E VTT Modules:

  • Fantasy Grounds: Eastern Journey adventure bundle
  • Roll20: Asian Monsters, Latin American Monsters

Pathfinder 2E VTT Modules:

  • Foundry: Asian Monsters, Mythos Monsters
  • Roll20: Latin American Monsters

Whatever your favorite system, we hope you'll check out this new version of the Asian Monsters Quickstarter, with PDFs going out immediately after the KS ends on September 23 and print books and VTT keys going out as soon as we process backer surveys!
