The DUNGEON MASTERS GUIDE City of Brass cover is good and bad at the same time. While its very representational of a high level adventure, it sends a clear message to the dumb: Satan is going to cornhole Miss USA with a big red member and theres nothing science or the military can do about it. - Gene Weigel

Yep another Kickstarter offering more than it could deliver. It was in 2014. (Some maps in PDF delivered and nothing else so far... Occasional updates about how 3-5 pages of layout are completed)

@Panagiotis Govotsos your badgering is disrespectful. Please remember Who Frank is. You sound like you might be from the Knights & Knaves Alehouse.
:lol:

If you dare question this poorly constructed kickstarter in any way, you must be from the Knights and Knaves Alehouse!

Please. Remember Who Frank Is. Such as he does not deserve the sort of skepticism which would be absolutely normal for you lesser people.

Stop being mean, Pangeoisis. This is simples respect to Mr. Mensers.

If you got burned by a past KickStarter, and are leery of future KickStarters...you could be from the Knights & Knaves Alehouse.

If you ask writers about whether they will use a professional staff or guest writers...you could be from the Knights & Knaves Alehouse.

If you don't have a natural inclination to blow every ex-TSR employee that didn't die from a lifetime of smoking...you could be from the Knights & Knaves Alehouse.

I give it two more days, then the KS comments page will be declared full of trolls, and the whole operation will have to move to Indiegogo.

Doesn't this mean that Toby comes here? Sounds a bit hypocritical.

I went through the comments and didn't see where Panagiotis was trolling. Here was the latest question or comment. He is looking for a clarification about 1E/2E. I am confused. What does trolling mean? Apparently I don't understand the term. Has it changed in 2017? I would hate to be trolling my wife if I ask her to pass me the salt.

@Derek Jones that has been my assumption but as we all know assumptions can be wrong. An explicit answer and updating the campaign text would remove doubt. It may also help @Mike from having to answer the question repeatedly although experience with past projects is that sometimes backers still ask the same question a lot of times :)

Just more evidence that Panagiotis = EOTB :D

Reminds me of part of the plot of Jodorowsky's "Holy Mountain"?

Or we could hope for a Mensers Transformation. But I suspect it will devolve into Mensers Primal Fury.
