The Torchbearer Rimholm graphic novel by D. Koch and Thor Olavsrud will launch on Indiegogo on October 22nd. You can sign up now to be notified and receive special early-bird rewards. This 48-page graphic novel anthology saga of myth and metal features incredible art by Kurt Komoda, Duamn Figueroa Rassol, and Alessandra Imperio.
Join the campaign and explore the haunting world of Rimholm.
We’re splashing out on this like never before. The new edition is based on 7 years of playtesting and feedback on the first edition. We started off with the intention of making a few tweaks like fixing the bow and wound up revising the entire game.
Don’t worry! It hasn’t changed so much that your existing supplements will be useless, but we’ve clarified, revised, refined and expanded the rules. If you back at a tier that includes the Lore Master’s Manual, you’ll get tons of new material, some of which I know many of you have been clamoring for. It includes:
New class: the thief, go from a knife-wielding cutthroat to the shadowy power that rules this town
New class: the shaman, fueled by the Immortals of Beasts, channeling their wild power
New stock: the Troll Changeling; they’re part troll, part human and all trouble
New conflicts: Banish, Abjure, Bind and Battle
New settlements like Borderland Fortress, Shire and Walled Town
Lots and lots of gear in a comprehensive list
Rules for making base camps—good for tackling those megadungeons.
Economic rules so you can crash the economy of your town
Travel rules
Simple guidance on town adventures
More spells and invocations
More monsters!
Wild new rules for spiritual quests
And more!
Join us in this adventure and you’ll score some fabulous loot!

We’re excited to introduce the Kickstarter for our latest Torchbearer project: The Bridge of the Damned. Follow the link to back this project and help me bring it to fruition!
The Bridge of the Damned is a new adventure targeted for characters levels 2-3. It’s based on the amazing contributions all of you have made in the Robber’s Bridge series of posts right on this blog:
My apologies, but if you’re here for the announcement of the new Torchbearer adventure Kickstarter, we’ve opted to push it back by a day. Sorry if you’ve been waiting with baited breath, but thanks for your interest!
Let’s talk about magic items. If you’re a GM, are you placing them in your adventures? If you’re a player, are your characters finding them in their delves? I hope so!
Fair friend, We write to you now to say that we have missed you, and that we are sorry for having abandoned you to the cold, unfriendly climes of the internet.
But, as penance, we have labored long and in secret to recreate our tiny fallen kingdom. Behold, the new Burning Wheel HQ forums!
