Many times our audience have asked Elliott and I how they can go about donating to the website. The reply has always been our policy to never solicit donations from our visitors or listeners. This was something we decided upon before we got up and running back in August of 2010. We believe just as firmly now, as we did then, in not looking to browbeat people who stop by or listen in order to financially support our endeavor.
This said, we have some interesting items we’d love to bring to the public while also satisfying the urge some folks have in lending us a hand in the continuing operation of The Gaming Gang. Elliott and I are just a couple of working Joes so it isn’t as if we’re dipping into some magical trust funds or inheritances to cover the expenses of traveling to various conventions or the rising cost of hosting the website and the ever growing bandwidth requirements for over 130+ audio programs.
Our first release under our TGG Productions umbrella is The Gaming Gang Guide to Great Game Mastering. This is simply the first of a planned schedule of goodies we’re going to bring to the public. We’re using the book/audiobook bundle as a way to gauge what sort of interest people have as far helping support TGG as well what we’d like roll out in the future. I understand the focus of this release might not be our main audience’s cup of tea but based on the success of this initial project will determine if we continue with future products that might be more up someone’s alley. As a bit of a tease, if we find enough interest in the game mastering guide, in late August/early September I’ll be releasing Jellicoe and Scheer, a set of World War I naval era miniature rules for quick playing battles regardless of fleet size. Elliott and I are also working with some film professionals and are in the early planning stages of a project, which will more than likely end up on Kickstarter, to bring something to the public that many historical and wargamers will be very excited about as the project is something never done before. Yet, these are on the horizon and will mostly be based on the success of the book/audiobook.
