Thank you everyone for believing in this project! 

We feel beholden to you to ensure this Kickstarter does the best it can do, so after watching a critique video of our Kickstarter from Bower's Game Corner, we worked to implement changes to the Kickstarter page to hopefully streamline and better highlight the features of the game. 


We'd love to hear your personal stories! What excites you the most about Quests & Cannons?

We're so happy to be on this journey with you! 


Thank you,

Eric & Shannon Geller

First stretch goal in 9 hours!

What an exciting first day and it's not even over yet!

We've unlocked our first stretch goal! 3 New Loot Cards! 

We're thinking that the cool thing to do here is that we can vote on some ideas for these loot cards! What does everyone think about that? If you have any ideas for loot cards, write them in the Kickstarter comments! At the end of the campaign we'll all vote on the ones we like the best! 


Here's the new updated Stretch Goal graphic! Up next are some material upgrades! 

Matte lamination on the player boards will give them some added durability and surface protection, which will be important on account of how often Quests & Cannons will get to our tables! 

Lastly, since it has been requested and we unlocked them, here's some lore for the Gobblelins!

Gobblelins can be found throughout Miraheim from the hills of Dwunarren to the Delvarian basin footsteppes, and even in cave networks throughout the harsh Kelwolohan expanse! Known for being ingenious inventors and artificers, Gobblelins form societies at the cross sections of the major nations, most notably in the surrounding areas of Windshear Retreat and Boulderpoint Stronghold. Gobblelins structure their societies around a pecking order established through ceremonial combat, fashioning prosthetic limbs and modifying their bodies to outperform their challengers. While seeming brutish, Gobblelin society has learned to be compassionate and empowering to the members of their society born less physically able, with an understanding that it’s not what you come into the world with but what you make of yourself that matters!

 

Funded in under 3 hours!
