With resources scarce and the clock ticking, every decision could mean the difference between victory and the end of the world 💀
Today we just sent out the 'smoke-test', testing out the survey on about 5% of backers. In the next few hours we'll check to make sure everything is working as planned and we'll send out the survey to everyone else.
Thank you again for all the support.
We're closing down the late pledges on Kickstarter, until we close out the project you can pre-order through the Backerkit page here.
We're scheduled to send out our surveys on October 21st and 22nd. We wait two weeks from the project ending because it allows Kickstarter to sort out the financial side of the campaign. Please make sure you check your email for a link on those days.
In the mean time, check out some of the latest layout examples going into the book:

We've been hard at work getting A Hill to Die On ready for print and distribution. 60 pages of Factions, Creatures, Traps, Investigation, Combat and more are bundled into the adventure, and it is nearly done! Here are a few of our favorite spreads to whet your appetite:
We are very excited as the whole thing is coming together. A handful of additional Cult Creatures will be added when we hit our $4,000 stretch goal, and the layout for the end-states of the adventure are being crafted as you read this. We don't assume success or failure in the adventure and instead are equipping GMs with the tools to roll out appropriate outcomes for their player's actions.

As the primary antagonists of A Hill to Die On, the Cult of The Defiler is a foul faction that must be stopped. The adventure comes with a host of Cultists and Creatures to confront your players, but more than that, A Hill to Die On includes Cult lore, rumors and schemes to bring these villains to dramatic life.
Here is a sample of the Cult's twisted doctrine:
From schemes to corrupt public officials, to sacrificial rituals and more, the Cult of the Defiler is a dastardly faction ready for you to weave into your games before, during, and after the adventure: A Hill to Die On.
The 'Bookmark Bundle' comes with EIGHT custom One-Eyed Werebear bookmarks, featuring the art of Eugenio Frosali and Hilary Fehr. Shipping to your address for these gorgeous pieces is included in the add-on price.
Never lose your place again as you mark important pages in your adventures with iconic imagery.
They work equally well to save your page in whatever book(s) you are reading away from the game-table. For wizards that kick-ass and take names, I recommend The Dresden Files, by Jim Butcher.
The giants of Gorgonia are on the rampage and you, as a newly inducted assassin of the Claw of the Raven, a chapter of the assassin's guild dedicated to the termination of titans, have the opportunity to raise your reputation. Can you kill a colossus in a surprise round and become the Killer of Giants?
Killer of Giants is a DnD 5E game of gaining knowledge. In the lead up to the hit, you attempt to learn an accurate stat block of your target. A trip to the library may reveal damage vulnerabilities or immunities (although a bad roll may misinform you). A trip to the armoury gives you access to thousands of traps to craft. An interview with an eye witness may reveal the weapons the giant uses. Tracking your prey may reveal how strong they are. Stalking your prey may reveal the perfect place for traps and where and when to strike.
When it's time to strike, take the giant out in a surprise round, and your rep as assassins increases, allowing you to charge more for the next hit, craft better traps, buy better items and feel like a heavy metal hero!
Killer of Giants features seven hits. Each hit has a challenge rating and a suggested group number and level so you can work your way up, or select one hit as a drop in or a one-shot for any party.
