As 2020 Ends - THANK YOU!!

As 2020 comes to a close, the Everything 2020 Bundle at Drivethrurpg will disappear in about 3 days.

There's been a little buzz on Dragonsfoot and Bryce Lynch's reviews at https://tenfootpole.org/ironspike/ have been generally positive and supportive (we have several "the best" entries - which is awesome!)

So there's been a bit of uptick in bundle sales.  I'm so appreciative of every single order. I've rolled a fair amount of the money made back into stock art for future products as well as purchases to support other small press folk on Drivethru.

THANK YOU to everyone who has supported Rosethrone Publishing in any way. We can't do it without you.

Some Titles In Print

 This has been a long and frustrating journey, but I think I'm figuring out the ins and outs of print on demand at Drivthrurpg.

Finally got my proofs for the four most recent adventures. The larger books - the sandbox adventures that clock in at about 100 pages each - work much better as perfect bound books than the shorter - 32-36 page - adventures. I'm exploring how to do the saddle stitched option - it means that the book is "premium color" which I guess just means they can charge more? I'm okay with that as long as the end result looks and feels good. 

So here's the four proof copies. I'm only comfortable releasing the larger ones into the world at large - and I might wait until after the holiday anyway - releasing a larger group (maybe the whole collection?) and/or some omnibus editions...

Coming Soon

 We're putting the finishing touches on a re-write of a very old adventure that we've had kicking around for years... decades, actually... 

Hope Cross Village is central to the whole Upon the Face of the Deep Campaign, at least at this point! Jabob's Well and Hope Cross Village are at the the geographical center of the Highlands, in a Freehold (so politically at the center of the Highlands) and in the middle of the very real fight between the Church of the Holy Saints and the New Cult of the Old Gods, both religious movements are hampered by corruption at the highest levels while the faithful live out their day to day lives.

So, here's the cover. We HOPE to have this out on DTRPG by the beginning of December so that we can cap off the Everything 2020 Bundle with this and the Storm's Impending Rage.

Some So-Called Art

Here's a couple things I drew for The Storm's Impending Rage. I'm no artist, and if I could pay a real artist to do drawings for these works, I'd give them these and say, "Here, make something like this, only good." But I do these to help visualize some of the things that I think are hard to "see" with only a description.

Mule's Corner

Two of the Eight Faces of Creation

Wall of Vines

Verdant Portal

Upon the Face of the Deep Campaign New Offering

 While not the first adventure in the Upon the Face of the Deep Campaign, we just published the 100 page sandbox adventure that is intended to be the kickoff of the Campaign:

The Storm's Impending Rage

The title, by the way, is a line from Samuel Taylor Coleridge's poem Dura Novis

The PDF is available at Drivethrurpg and the print version is in pre-media, waiting for approval and then a proof will be ordered. The last proof I ordered (Bonepicker's Tower) just shipped but the warning is that media mail could take over a month to get here... sigh

Three New Offerings at Rosethrone Publishing!

Last week we published two adventures and a little sourcebook introduction to one of the Clans of the Rosewood Highlands.

The Sandbox Adventure: A Shadow Over the Greatwood for levels 5-7 - 100 pages! (Ironically, the working title of this was "Quick Adventure")

A quick drop-in adventure for levels 3-5 - 16 pages.
