Re: Astonishing Swordsmen & Sorcerers of Hyperborea 2nd Edition
Congratulations to everyone involved on what looks like a very successful fundraiser for the hardback! You have almost 900 backers and over 450% funding, super awesome. Can't wait to see what's in store through updates over the next few months. Is it August 2017 yet?

Re: Astonishing Swordsmen & Sorcerers of Hyperborea 2nd Edition
Indeed congratulations; cannot wait for my PDF and new map also (I wonder how it going to look when I change it to suit my campaign world 
).
Looks like a lot of new changes to rules and extra stuff to enjoy...
Good stuff!

Re: Astonishing Swordsmen & Sorcerers of Hyperborea 2nd Edition
Many thanks, fellows! Wow, what a great response! Now I'm back to work on Volume IV, tinkering away, adding new critters, etc. More art has been rolling in. I talked to DMP last night, and he told me Volumes I, II, and III are nearly in the bag. Going to run a little Black Friday sale, the last one to feature the original boxed set. I will be sending out surveys soon, giving folks options to add stuff, etc. Busy, busy! Thanks again for making this KS rock, my friends!

Re: Astonishing Swordsmen & Sorcerers of Hyperborea 2nd Edition
Awesome! (As long as you don't cleanse it by taking out the devils and demons etc.)
It'll be a kinder, gentler Hyperborea, so as not to offend any soccer moms. Does anyone really play assassins and monks anyway? You'll hardly miss them. Plus, check out our new d10 initiative system.
