We are hard at work reforging the Adventurers Spellbook! We are done reforging all of our spells from the Player's Handbook and the Adventurers Backpack, and have finished all of our rune lore spells as well. Steve and Chuck are toiling away at the elemental spells now; the Aranowl expansion book should be finished writing early next week.
Thank you all for your patience! Feel free to reach out to us at [email protected] if you have any questions. We're happy to help!
Only 24 hours remain to back the Adventurers Spellbook Reforged!
We only have a few stretch goals left; the next, and possibly the most anticipated, is our 100k goal: publishing the Adventurers Spellbook in Full Color, instead of the black-and-white publication we were planning. This update would bring the Spellbook in line with our full-color core books for Castles & Crusades, as well as the Spellbook's sister publication, the Adventurers Backpack.
We are planning a livestream for tomorrow morning (details tbd) to close out this incredible campaign; we hope you'll join us! The campaign ends at 12pm CST; you have until the Overtime Backer Train ends to complete your pledge for the greatest spellcasting resource in all of SIEGE gameplay!
🔥 The Adventurers Spellbook Reforged: NEW STRETCH GOALS! 🔥
Greetings from the Troll Dens,
We are stunned by the support for the Adventurers Spellbook Reforged!! With under a week left, we have added four final stretch goals to this project. The Adventurers Spellbook may come to life in FULL COLOR, we have TWO NEW BOOKS to bring to life, and Engineering Crafting may receive BONUS CONTENT! Keep reading to see the details!
This is a content upgrade for the Adventurers Spellbook Reforged; it will be automatically included for all backers regardless of pledge level!
What's Included:
This book was originally intended to be a black and white book, like the Adventurers Armory; however, if we hit $100,000 we'll make it full color! This will make the margin tabs pop visually and become easier to navigate, make the spells themselves easier to read and stand out on the pages, and will allow for a heavier, more durable paper stock. Some color art will also be included!
This is a brand new book of its own, separate from the Adventurers Spellbook Reforged! To get the PDF of The Melithius: Pledge at the $27 level or higher To get the Print of The Melithius: Pledge at the $75 level or higher
This lost tome contains ancient prayers, rituals, wards and boons that tap into the esoteric art of subtle evocations. Rhymes, chants, and actions are detailed that can grant your character situational bonuses to certain attribute checks. Need to convince the bartender that your prying questions are innocent? A quick prayer to Narrheit, god of chaos, may grant you a +1 bonus to fool him. Roleplaying tips and flavor text are included to bring these rituals out of the realm of the strictly mechanical, and into the world of the truly divine.
This is a brand new book of its own, separate from the Adventurers Spellbook Reforged! To get the PDF of Witchcraft: Pledge at the $27 level or higher To get the Print of Witchcraft: Pledge at the $75 level or higher
It's not exactly a new character class, per-say. The magic of Witchcraft is of the earth and of dreams, and in so being, is accessible to all. This path of progression will allow your character to harvest materials, brew potions, chant unique spells, perhaps enjoy the company of a witchy familiar, and lay mystical enchantments upon friends and enemies alike. Any character of any class may choose to walk this path. Transform the battlefield by calling upon a magical armory that no one will expect: the natural creativity and primordial trappings of a witch.
Now is the time to get the most bang for your buck! You can not only save money on these new publications and content upgrades, but help us make them possible. Share with friends and your C&C-loving community! Thank you all for your incredible support; we can't wait to see how this campaign ends!
You may have seen the posts floating around social media; we promised you all that if we could break over $80k and our final stretch goal by 12pm CST today, we would distribute the Adventurers Armory PDF Bundle to all Backers who pledge prior to that deadline.
Thanks to you all, we've hit that goal! The Adventurers Armory PDF Bundle will be distributed to all backers who pledge to the Adventurers Spellbook REFORGED campaign prior to 12pm CST TODAY. We've spoken with the Backerkit team and, with their help, we plan to distribute these three PDFs to all eligible backers on Monday. Backers who pledge after 12pm CST today, 2/20, will not be eligible to receive the bundle.
To celebrate, join us live at 11:30am CST! Chuck and Jeremy will chat about our next stretch goals (hopefully getting some ideas from you all), answering questions about the Adventurers Armory bundle and fulfillment, and more! You can watch from Twitch, YouTube, or right here on the campaign home page.
From us in our dens to you in yours, thank you for your support on the Adventurers Spellbook! We are so thrilled to see so much excitement for this beloved volume. We can't wait to deliver a spellcasting tome worthy of your campaign's most legendary mage! 🧙♂️
The campaign continues to climb, we are very close to reaching the next goal:
$80,000 - Spell Casting as a Trade Guidelines! Rules for bringing spell casting as a trade to your table, be it for NPCs. players, arcane merchants or for the church!
So we have come up with a new giveaway! Want a free PDF of the C&C Adventurers Armory Bundle, delivered to you by Monday?
🔥DEADLINE: Feb 20th, 12pm CST🔥 Please Share Where You Can!
Let's get the Adventurers Spellbook Backerkit campaign over $80,000! If we can beat this goal before 12pm CST tomorrow, ALL BACKERS WHO HAVE PLEDGED PRIOR TO THE DEADLINE will receive the Adventurers Armory PDF Bundle by Monday!
I would like to extend a very heartfelt THANK YOU to everyone who has backed the Castles & Crusades Adventurers Spellbook campaign already. Because of you and your support it is off to a roaring start, funding in under an hour and still moving along!
We have just published the next round of rewards and all of these focus on the book itself and work toward bringing you the most content for your table! Its going to be packed.
🚨 REWARDS SPOTLIGHT: There is a real jewel in the new stretch rewards that kicks in printed at the $75 pledge level and above:
$70,000 || New Publication - Aranowl ! The Citadel: Aranowl (R-ah-nawl) is a bastion in the world of Aihrde. It rides high upon a rocky sea stack in the Perrin Straights. There upon the heights sits the Citadel, a sprawling walled complex that serves as both a wizard’s guild and the world’s font of knowledge. Here stands the Great Library, the College of the Magi, the Marbled Hall, the Curia and more. Touched upon in the Codex of Aihrde, explored in The Marbeline Coast, we’ll explore the Citadel in whole, in its own publication, detailing the wizard’s guild, the Curators, Council, the inhabitants, the buildings, lore, and the archived magic that resides there. Unleash the power of the history of Aihrde! This stretch reward goes to as a PDF format to all backers at the $27 (ALL DIGITAL PDF ONLY) pledge level and above, and Print format for $75 (Adventurers Spellbook Combo) and above.
We are hard at work reforging the Adventurers Spellbook! We are done reforging all of our spells from the Player's Handbook and the Adventurers Backpack, and have finished all of our rune lore spells as well. Steve and Chuck are toiling away at the elemental spells now; the Aranowl expansion book should be finished writing early next week.
Thank you all for your patience! Feel free to reach out to us at [email protected] if you have any questions. We're happy to help!
I backed the Spellbook Reforged before the deadline (see the email receipt below) and never got the email with the link to download the pdf. Can you correct this?

I just realised that I asked this question TWO MONTHS AGO and I have not had a reply. I added the new Reforged Adventurers Backpack as a PDF to my pledge. The campaign text said that it would be available soon after the the project was funded. In the meantime, while I sit and wait for my PDF, it has now been released on Drivethru RPG. I don't think this is good enough from TLG in terms of either customer communication or delvering on promises made during the campaign. While you have moved on to your next campaign, the silence on here for existing customers is deafening.
PM is scheduled when ? might be asked and answered but couldn't find that.
Also I added the whole gambit -- PDF and PRINT versions of the core three books -- are those able to be released sooner as they are already for sale.?
