Evil Hat Productions will be bringing two recent RPG Kickstarter successes to trade in 2017: Blades in the Dark and Karthun: Lands of Conflict.
Blades in the Dark is a roleplaying game about a crew of daring scoundrels attempting to build a criminal empire in the haunted industrial-fantasy city of Duskwall. Players will participate in heists, chases, occult mysteries, dangerous bargains, and bloody skirmishes as they attempt to gather riches. The game is designed by John Harper (Talislanta 4th Edition, Danger Patrol, World of Dungeons). The Kickstarter raised $179,280 from 3,925 backers ($45.68/backer average) on April 9, 2015. The hardcover rulebook has an estimated MSRP of $30.00 and will release in March/April 2017.
Karthun: Lands of Conflict is an epic fantasy setting that players can use with their favorite rule system (Fate, D&D, Savage Worlds, Pathfinder). The land of Karthun was ravaged by the unleashing of the Worldfire and the breaking of the planes. Rulers now wage war against the Three Demon Kings, and each other. Adventures are needed to explore the realm and battle the demonic hordes. The Kickstarter raised $42,859 from 1,058 backers ($40.51/backer average) on October 15, 2014. The hardcover book will release in March/April 2017. MSRP was not announced.
