Another Bundle; Iron Kingdoms: Requiem

[ffutures]

This is a new bundle, a magic + steam engines + gunpowder technology setting for D&D 5th edition. There was a previous bundle based on the separate Iron Kingdoms RPG, which has its own rules set.

This all-new Iron Kingdoms Requiem Bundle presents the latest version of Iron Kingdoms: Full Metal Fantasy, the mecha-fantasy RPG setting from Privateer Press, newly adapted for the Dungeons & Dragons Fifth Edition rules. Steam power and gunpowder meet sword and sorcery in the Iron Kingdoms, a fantastic world rebuilding itself after an apocalypse. Armed with mechanika and accompanied by mighty steamjacks, you'll play a human, gobber, trollkin, Rhulic dwarf, ogrun, Iosan, or Nyss elf in an adventuring company of gunfighters, gun mages, warcasters, arcane mechaniks, and combat alchemists. Explore the soot-covered cities of the Iron Kingdoms as the world marches onward to industrial revolution.

We presented the original 2013 Iron Kingdoms standalone RPG in the very successful September 2016 Iron Kingdoms Bundle. That game, based on Privateer's popular WARMACHINE miniatures game, is set on the continent of Immoren, where dozens of squabbling states use arcane mechanika to fight ancient feuds. In 2021 Privateer ran a spectacular US$594K Iron Kingdoms: Requiem Kickstarter campaign to adapt the standalone RPG as a campaign setting for D&D 5E. Released in 2022, Iron Kingdoms: Requiem shows the once-thriving Kingdoms recovering from an infernal invasion called the Claiming. One early Requiem release, Legend of the Witchfire, is a direct sequel to the d20 System trilogy that launched the original RPG setting two decades ago.

Privateer followed the Requiem Kickstarter with the October 2021 Iron Kingdoms: Borderlands and Beyond ($329K) and, now in progress, Iron Kingdoms: Into the Deep Wild. This all-new offer presents most of the current Requiem line through Borderlands, including six recent titles not yet available on DriveThruRPG.

We provide each title complete in .PDF. Like all Bundle of Holding titles, these ebooks have NO DRM (Digital Restrictions Management), and our customers are entitled to move them freely among all their devices. (Note that the DriveThruRPG versions of these files are inobtrusively watermarked.)

Ten percent of each purchase (after gateway fees) goes to this Iron Kingdoms Requiem offer's designated charity, Direct Relief. Direct Relief sends protective gear and critical care medications to health workers, with emergency deliveries to medical facilities across the US and to regional response agencies across the world.

The total retail value of the titles in this Iron Kingdoms Requiem Bundle is US$135. Customers who pay just US$14.95 get all five titles in our Starter Collection (retail value $65) as DRM-free ebooks, including the complete Iron Kingdoms: Requiem Campaign Setting (retail price $25); the 5E version of Monsternomicon (retail $20); the GM's Toolkit (retail $5); the full-length adventure Legend of the Witchfire (retail $10); and the introductory adventue An Echo in the Darkness, originally distributed for Free RPG Day 2021.

Those who pay more than the threshold (average) price, which is set at $29.95 to start, also get our entire Bonus Collection with five more titles worth an additional $70, including the setting sourcebook Borderlands and Beyond (retail $25) and its Gamemaster companion The Borderlands Survival Guide (retail $20), along with three adventures: Shadow of the Seeker (retail $10), Escape the Mind Slavers (retail $10), and A Strange Light Breaks (retail $5). (These Bonus titles, and An Echo in the Darkness in this offer's Starter Collection, aren't available on DriveThruRPG.)

You need the Dungeons & Dragons Fifth Edition rules, not included in this offer, to use these books.

I can't actually remember much about the previous incarnation of this game, and I think that due to other commitments I wasn't actually able to spend much time on it, and that's going to be true for this one too. About all I can really say is that this is selling at about the same prices as the previous bundle, and going by file size it looks like you get a reasonable amount for your money.
