Ernest Gary Gygax Jr's Marmoreal Tomb Kickstarter is LIVE

GP Adventures is very proud to present the Marmoreal Tomb Campaign Starter, a complete kit to start playing in the campaign created by Ernie in 1978, and now available to all.

The direct link: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1709227718/ernest-gary-gygax-jrs-marmoreal-tomb-campaign-star

The Marmoreal Tomb Campaign Starter is a completely self-contained sandbox module introducing Ernest Gary Gygax Jr.'s setting, The Hobby Shop Dungeon, and the lands of the Duinnsmere around it, to the gaming masses.

The Campaign Starter can be used with its own default setting of the Duinnsmere, and/or in conjunction with other settings, published and home-brewed. Its design seeks to reflect both the way Ernest Gary Gygax Jr. runs the game, and to be amenable to one's own preferences and play styles.

It is made of three parts, each presented as the classic modules with full color maps and keys and all the details you need to run them, which you can use together or in conjunction with one another, as the GM desires. It is presented in a First-Edition TSR compatible format, with guidelines to use with different editions and variants of the game, including Fifth edition and Pathfinder, even different genres and role-playing games. Full conversions are part of our stretch goals.

Already half-funded after a few hours!

This is of course directly related to the Hyperborean Hobby Shop Dungeon ideas shared on this forum.

I'm in, too! And because it has direct connections to Hyperborea and will contain advice for using the Hobby Shop Dungeon in a Hyperborea campaign, I've also posted this KS campaign in the official "Announcements" section of the forum. Best of luck, Ben! (Not that you need it!)
