Goodman Games has just launched a Backerkit project to fund a modern edition of the classic fantasy adventure Caverns of Thracia. Available for both Dungeon Crawl Classics and 5E D&D, Jannell Jaquays’s mega dungeon can easily provide a year or more of action and adventure at your game table. There are a variety of pledge levels with additional adventures and more but you can reserve a copy of the Caverns of Thracia hardcover (with PDF), in your flavor of choice, for a pledge of $53.99 through July 23rd. Sadly, there currently isn’t any info on the expected fulfillment date. Or at least none I could track down.
About the Kickstarter project:
The end of one empire sees the birth of a new one deep within the earth. Born in the forgotten chambers and caverns of age-lost Thracia rises a formidable foe: the Minotaur King, along with his host of dog brothers, gnolls, lizardmen, and others. Some say that even Death itself lingers in the Caverns of Thracia, ready to claim any who stumble upon its unholy chapel. The secrets of Thracia are manifold, its treasures thrice that. Do you have the mettle to survive… the Caverns of Thracia?
