Just one hour. That’s all it took for Northlands, our brand-new two-book campaign overlay, to reach full funding on Kickstarter. And as of today – Four stretch goals have been unlocked—with more on the horizon.

We’re thrilled and humbled by the overwhelming support from the community. Over the past 48 hours, Kobold Press has been fielding numerous questions about what exactly Northlands is, what this campaign overlay entails, and what backers can look forward to.

To answer those questions, Kendo sat down with some of the brilliant minds behind the project to give you the inside scoop. In this new Scouting Party video, the team dives into:

  • What is the Northlands?
  • The different regions and adventure locations you’ll find in the books
  • A deeper look at the tone, themes, and player options that make Northlands unlike anything else in the world of tabletop RPGs
