I was thinking EGG as E. Gary Gygax for a second there.

Congrats to the James Brothers and associated contributors for a successful project. I know there are some days left, but this thing is funded and well on its way.

We've blown past unlocking the Red Aegis Hacker's Guide to FATE CORE (woohoo!) and are now chipping away at the tactical miniatures game! Then on to 13th Age!

I finally got around to backing this project. I'm looking forward to everything to do with Red Aegis as the days and months go by. This will be good.

Look for me and my content at EN World (user name: sanishiver).

I've felt an near-overwhelming sense of contentment since backing this project.

I'm really pleased with practically everything I've read so far about RED AEGIS. I look forward to what we'll learn next!

Ladies & gentlemen, we have TACTICS.

One more stretch-goal reached; lets get that Erik DeBie story now...

Over on the Loremaster forums Brian R. James recently answered some questions about the Red Aegis game system and gave some details on the scope of the game. Worth a look.

I think the Tactics expansion is an awesome stretch goal that will give lots of gaming joy to all. Now, for the tall guy.

FIVE (5) days remaining. If you haven't jumped on. You might want to consider it now. We won't be able to replicate the value you'll get by supporting via Kickstarter. At those beneficial levels, you'll get a bucket-load of content, add-ons, and additional games.

If you have any interest in this project, PLEDGE NOW. Quick... before the zombies eat your brains!!!

Wow. I almost missed out on this. Even though time will most likely not allow me to play, I am more than happy to support you guys and grab a hardcopy (hopefully to get signatures at a future con).

Congrats on getting funded and more importantly, congrats on your team. It's like you got the entire first round of a fantasy draft. This project will rock.

Only 3 hours left. Jump in while you can. We would be more than happy to sign anything you want at the next Candlekeep seminar at Gen Con.

I've spent most of yesterday and today reminding even the most peripherally-connected gamer [RPG, video games, tabletop games, etc.] at most of the locales I frequent to pledge for this Kickstarter.

I get the feeling that RED AEGIS will come to eventually offer a little something for just about every fan of gaming in general.

Thanks, I'll check it out soon and make sure my backing is where I wanted it to be.

If anyone here at the Keep pledged to Red Aegis and needs access to the backer-only forum. Head over to Loremaster.org and sign up. We're starting to put some stuff out there.

For those of you following or participating in the devlopment of Red Aegis, Matt James has posted a November update that's worth a read.

Look for me and my content at EN World (user name: sanishiver).

Jeremy, thanks!

As of now, in February, we're moving into beta testing. That means our backers will soon get to playtest as well. All is rolling along and we're soon to take the book and explode in ways only Realms fans can appreciate (lore, content, and yummy gooey story!).

Sorry for my delayed response.

1) My non-gaming career has absorbed a huge portion of my life in recent months. Things should calm down soon enough.

2) I didn't want to spend too much time working on Loremaster.org while Red Aegis was in development. It will grow back to it's former self. In fact, there could be some rather exciting an interesting news regarding it, and another rather large website (don't worry, I'm not selling).

3) Ed turned over his work on Red Aegis. Ooooh eeeeemmmm geeeeee. It's pretty surreal to think that one of my favorite storytellers has put his touch on our world. He can take a grain of sand and turn it into a world. Keep your eyes peeled.
