Goodman Games to Publish 4E "Raiders Guild" Adventures

Goodman Games is pleased to announce that it has signed an agreement with Axe Initiative Games to publish its line of 4E Raiders Guild adventures and supplements. The Raiders Guild line will be published under the GSL license from Wizards of the Coast, utilizing the Dungeons & Dragons Fourth Edition mechanics. The first Raiders Guild adventure is slated for publication in spring 2009, to be followed by quarterly releases thereafter.

“Raiders Guild is a brilliant concept that fits perfectly with what D&D should be about,” said Joseph Goodman, President of Goodman Games. “Raiders Guild lets players be heroes. These heroes challenge a dangerous world, exploring dark places and recovering lost treasures. But they’re not just aimless wanderers – they’re brothers in a mighty guild. It’s a new vision for the archetypal D&D adventuring party.”

“Working with Goodman Games provides the dynamism that Raiders Guild Dungeons & Dragons products deserve,” said Sasha Bilton, co-founder of Axe Initiative Games. “Joseph has a wealth of experience in getting gamers involved in his products and I’m convinced his involvement will give us huge audience.”

The Raiders Guild series was created by eminent RPG author Robin D. Laws, and features art direction by Dave Allsop. Drawn by ProFantasy Software master mappers, Raiders Guild maps are some of the most beautiful and usable available. They’ll be available in a variety of formats, configured to print out at battle map scale, so each and every encounter can be played against a full color backdrop. The first adventure, Mission: Sea Crypt sees new guild members race against time to retrieve an artifact from a coral grave that rises from the deeps once every fifty years and features a new race of foes, the writhing certhoa.

Retailers will be able to order the first Raiders Guild release in spring 2009 under their Goodman Games listing.

Goodman Games is a publisher of role playing games, adventures, and accessories that celebrates its seventh anniversary this year. It is best known for its Dungeon Crawl Classics line of adventure modules, the longest-lived and most popular d20 product on the market.

Axe Initiative Games was founded in 2008 by Sasha Bilton & Simon Rogers, co-owners of Pelgrane Press, formed in 2000 and whose recent Trail Of Cthulhu RPG won two silver Ennies.

Wraith Recon Available Now!

An original new setting written specifically for the 4th edition GSL, Wraith Recon transports the players into new roles and terrible responsibilities.

The Kingdom of Dardarrick is beset on all fronts. To the east, open warfare with the Republic of Lorn has claimed tens of thousands of lives over the past decade and trenches now run parallel to the border, uprooting towns and villages in their wake. To the south, Lorn’s ally, the Kingdom of Torres constantly threatens overt military action, and has been implicated in many raids on nearby towns as the nation reaches a fever pitch of religious hatred. The wildlands to the west and north are home to goblinoids, ogres and giants, who must be constantly beaten back as they encroach on Dardarrick territory. And even within Dardarrick itself, evil lurks as the followers of the deposed theocrat Tomarsson plot their fanatical return to power.

Players take the role of the legendary Wraith Recon units, dedicated special forces trained and equipped to operate far from the rest of the army. Entrusted with the most dire missions, the Wraiths are capable of overcoming almost any obstacle.

Midnight Harvest (Call of Cthulhu)

Tricks, Not Treats...

The Autumnal Costume Fete fills sleepy Five Lanterns, RI with outlandish garb sewn by the country's best costumers. This year, some of the outfits seem a little too real... and their designer will go to any length to keep his identity secret. A rash of missing children, the discovery of unholy texts, and gibbering lunatics wandering the streets, hide the true menace as it reaches for its blasphemous goal. Can the investigators solve these disparate clues in time to stop the Midnight Harvest?

Midnight Harvest contains everything a Call of Cthulhu group needs for an evening's worth of Mythos-inspired fun, including pregenerated characters. It is the latest in an innovative new series of Call of Cthulhu scenarios and supplements from Super Genius Games.

Midnight Harvest is available at RPGNow.com.
