Epic Legacy Hero's Handbook

Created by 2CGaming

Remaster and expansion of the Epic Legacy system - bringing the Core Rulebook to its zenith.

Latest Updates from Our Project:

November Update - Backerkit Open + Art Progress
over 2 years ago – Thu, Nov 04, 2021 at 08:24:32 AM

Whoa it's been a minute! So sorry for the radio silence here, but we're finally ready to open up the backerkit pledge manager, and show off some of the *great* art that'll be strewn throughout the Epic Legacy Hero's Handbook, and get started on the monthly progress updates - there's been a lot of work going from the art and design team, even if the administration here has been delayed!


Backerkit

Right off the bat - BackerKit is open! You should have received an email indicating as such. If not, feel free to pop over to your survey here: https://elhh.backerkit.com/backer/welcome


For those with physical product, you'll be entering shipping information. You can also pick up many of our other products here at a discount, and bundle their shipping with the Hero's Handbook for some extra savings there as well.


Art Progress

One of the main things you'll notice in backerkit is the Alternate Cover option for the Deluxe Print of the Epic Legacy Hero's Handbook! We're so excited for this piece - showcasing Masako the Epic Barbarian tearing through a collection of lower-level foes.

Hero's Handbook Alt Cover - by Daniel K.

Backers picking up the Deluxe Print will have the option to select this cover through Backerkit! Side-by-side below, for reference (note that other deluxe elements, such as foil stamping, deboss, spot matte, etc. are the same in both, though not shown below):

Standard Cover Art vs. Deluxe Cover Art

Beyond that, there is *so* much art for this project. One of our main goals with this upgrade was to make the art in this, the "Player's Guide" for Epic Legacy stand strong aside our most art-dense book ever - the Tome of Titans - Vol. 1. To that end, we are filling this book to the brim with Epic art, some of which we're able to show off below!

Collection of Final Art Pieces by Chapter
Collection of In-Progress Artwork (More to Come!)

We're particularly excited for the new monster art - lots of wonderful work from Juan Arrabal (and others, yet to come), illustrating Mythic foes, both old and new!

New Mythic Foe - Prismatic Wyrm

Next Steps

The next Kickstarter update will be Sunday, December 19, or earlier.

Estimated Hero's Handbook Project Completion!

We are currently on-track for a March delivery of the PDF and August delivery of the prints! No schedule changes at this time.


As Always,

Stretch Goal Unlocked - Last 10 Hours!
over 2 years ago – Sun, Sep 12, 2021 at 09:49:58 PM

Put on your shades...

This book is going to be stunning!

You’ve done it! With your generous support, we’ve unlocked our Mythic Printing stretch goal, which means both the standard and deluxe versions of the Epic Legacy Hero’s Handbook will receive major quality upgrades (and a unique alt-cover available as an option for the Deluxe version of Hero's Handbook). We can almost hear the sound of that silky-smooth paper turning as you consult this prestigious tome. 

It’s the final countdown!

In the blink of an eye, the end to this Kickstarter draws nigh! We have just under 10 hours left until this campaign draws to a close, so now is the time to blast the horn of summoning and assemble your party to help a strong finish for the project!

Don’t forget, if you are planning to grab any add-ons or upgrade your pledge, now is the time to do so before those limited-run goodies are off the menu. Let’s light this last day up!

Best,

The 2CGaming Team
