Excellent news Hawkins, good luck with the kickstarter project and hopefully we will see your work in print.

Cheers

UPDATE: Okay, evidently there have been some delays for the launch. I can tell you that the sourcebook will be martial arts-themed. Also, I will probably have to do a podcast. Once again, I will keep you posted when I know more.

Congratulations. This looks exciting, and I bet you're thrilled.

Have you read the source-book "Qin: The Warring States"? I'm pretty confident, having read your blog post that you've got lots of relevant books, I'm just wondering on your opinion on it.

No, I have not read that one yet. I do have plenty of material; I would love to read every one that a potential patron suggests, but my main problem with that is my budget.

Congratulations, Hawkins.

I just saw the announcement on the KQ forums. I've had my eye on Rite Publishing projects for some time now, still kicking myself for not signing onto some of their previous projects. I have a keen interest in this topic and funds permitting you likely have another backer.

Thank you! I am excited that we are already $575 out of the first $1,000 of funding to be raised. Basically, for every $1,000, I will be designing approximately 32 pages of material.

It basically works like Kickstarter, tough if you do not meet your goal the Funders can choose to still fund a produce with the lesser amount (if you don't make your goal on Kickstarter than the project is just dead).

-Congrats.

-If you can answer, how exactly are you handling martial arts? In 3e, they generally appeared as feat trees, which were underwhelming at best. Personally, martial arts are handled better as similar to Maneuvers from Tome of Battle.

Basically, each school will have 5-7 "techniques" (basically relabeled maneuvers because Pathfinder has many types of other maneuvers and I did not want to clutter the term) that you will gain access to by gaining prestige in a martial arts school. Techniques will in some cases be powered by a point pool instead of a uses per encounter mechanic. You can gain prestige in a school by doing quests, leveling, and taking certain feats appropriate to the school. Much of this will be showcased in the upcoming preview material that I spent that last month working on.

Congrats on the impending project.

Like the direction it's headed base on the preview and your post here. Already signed up, see you on the development boards when they go up.

Hawkins, I will certainly purchase your Martial Arts Guidebook. It looks intriguing!

I am curious though ... will there be any compatability conversion instructions for playing these rules in 3.5?

If not, I'm curious if you might provide some instructions to do that are perhaps external to the published product.

Thanks!

I am pretty sure it will be pretty easy to use with 3.5. But if there are a few bits that are not, feel free to bug me he here at the 'Keep.
