This is not an April Fool's fakeout! You can go to our new Kickstarter page now and download Battlezoo Ancestries Fusions for free. This new ancestry will allow you and your friends (or just you if your game is short on players) to jointly take control of a hydra, cerberus, or two-headed giant and work together to create powerful combination effects like the mighty Omega Beam! It's available for PF2, 5e, Pathbuilder, Foundry VTT, animated tokens... the works. And it's all free!
While you're over there, we'd love it if you wanted to back our new project, Secret Dragons, four new dragon books, each detailing a new and exciting family of dragons: fairy dragons connected to fey, misfit dragons with weird magical mishaps, leshy dragons connected to plants and fungi, and battle dragons who live for the thrill of battle. To continue the wild launch day offers, if you back in the first 48 hours for all four dragon books, we're throwing in a special edition of the original dragon book, plus PDF, plus digital assets (all three combined worth a total of over $100) for free!
You Asked For It: Battlezoo Ancestries Dragons Expanded At Long Last!

Thank you so much for supporting Battlezoo Ancestries Dragons and for all the requests over the last few years to expand with even more dragons. We heard you, and so in honor of the Year of the Dragon, we decided to make a major expansion called Secret Dragons with four new books, each introducing a brand new family of dragons, with rules for playable dragons, lore, statblocks, great wyrms, and more! If you're like me and you can't get enough dragons, check out that new Kickstarter campaign, launching on April 1st! Just for checking in, you'll find a free PDF available on launch day!
Here's a list of key features for each book:
• Five New Playable Dragons Per Book: New feats and options when playing these new dragons as player characters—expanding on the rules found in Battlezoo Ancestries: Dragons! But you won’t need to own Battlezoo Ancestries: Dragons to use these rules. • Full PC Rules: Detailing how to play each family as a player character in 5e or Pathfinder. • 20 Dragon Statblocks for the New Families: Each new dragon family is fleshed out with new statblocks for GMs to pit against your players! • Lore and Background: Tons of information on each new dragon family, plus additional lore on each new dragon type. • Specially Named Dragons: Pit these ultimate Great Wyrms against your most powerful characters and watch them scream in terror! • Tons of New Art and Tokens: Each book has a full set of art and tokens for use in any VTT or online game. • Free Pathbuilder 2e File: This free JSON file for Pathfinder 2e allows you to easily add all the new dragons to your Pathfinder games. • Full access to the development team: Everyone has full and free access to the development team to answer any and all questions! • And much more can be unlocked with DOZENS of amazing stretch goals!
Thank you for being part of the Roll for Combat community and for supporting my vision for Battlezoo Ancestries Dragons from the very beginning. I hope to see you on the new project, and I'm looking forward to our new adventures together. Let's see just how far we can go!

Devils Out Now! Evil Eyes Sent to Heralds!

– Wed, Jan 17, 2024 at 07:46:48 PM
Devils PDFs, Foundry Modules, and Animated Tokens Out Now!
Getting out devils to everyone was ... a devil of a time! It was tricky to get this released as we had to figure out a way to release the Foundry module separately, as well as the other materials, without messing up the existing Year of Legends. But everyone should have their devils, and if you haven't downloaded your devils yet, here is how you can!
Devils PDFs, Pathbuilder 2e JSON, and Digital Assets
Everyone will find the Devils PDF in their BackerKit account within the downloads section. It will also appear in the Year of Legends Battlezoo.com PDFs as well, but not until the end of the year! For now, the only way to get Devils is through your BackerKit downloads.
You will also find the Pathbuilder 2e JSON for Devils with all Pathfinder PDFs and digital assets.
Devils Animated Tokens
You will also find the animated tokens within your BackerKit account for download. Those with the animated tokens Foundry module, simply update the module to version 1.1 to have the tokens downloaded into your Foundry module.
Devils Foundry Modules
Those who have purchased the Foundry module will notice a new key in their BackerKit downloads specifically for Devils. We had to release Devils as a separate module as it's unavailable to people outside the Kickstarter. However, at the end of the year, Devils will be added to the Year of Legends Foundry module, but for now, it's a separate module.
Simply use your Foundry key to unlock and install the module as you would any other.
Evil Eyes Released Now to Heralds
Finally, all Heralds can access the downloads section and get their Evil Eyes! As for everyone else, you'll get to see them in a few weeks!
Also, if you are a Legendary Herald and haven't been invited to the private discord channel, please contact me with your email address and discord name, and I'll make sure to add you.
Whew, and with that, Devils is done! More to come!

Jewel of the Indigo Isles 5E Foundry VTT Released, The Year of Legends Ends This Week, and Battlezoo Black Friday Sale!

Jewel of the Indigo Isles 5E Foundry Module Released!
After much testing and hard work, we are happy to announce the release of the Jewel of the Indigo Isles 5E Foundry Module! Anyone who backed the module should have received an email with a redemption code. The full instructions will be emailed to you, but here is a quick overview of how it works:
You will receive a link to the Jewel of the Indigo Isles Foundry Key for 5E, which automatically includes your discount code. You can either click on this link directly or go to the Jewel of the Indigo Isles 5E Foundry page found here and input the code during checkout.
This code will give you a 100% discount off the Foundry Module, but only the 5Eversion.
Complete the checkout process and make sure the amount owed is $0 for the Foundry module.
After you complete checkout, you will receive an email with your Foundry code from "SendOwl Downloads <[email protected]>".
While you are at the store, feel free to order anything else you might like! :) Thisdiscount code can be combined with other products.
Do NOT select any other options on the order page if you are receiving different versions. Only add the 5E Foundry VTT version without any other options.
All Physical Orders Shipped and Completed
All orders, over 6,000 packages, have been shipped and sent. Please let us know if you haven't received an update on your shipment or the package. One small note that is super annoying is that the very last shipment of around 50 packages was sent... and then FedEx lost them. I was told this is fairly common as they aren't lost, but instead, they weren't scanned at one of the shipping destinations. I have been told that 99% of the time, these packages will make it to their final destinations and are found along the way.
The good news is that FedEx found nearly all of these packages last week, but around ten are still missing. We have been in daily contact with FedEx, and these packages nearly always show up, but we will ship replacements if necessary. However, it's quite annoying that of all the shipments, this happened during the very last shipment of the Kickstarter.

A quick update on the final shipments. At the very end of the fulfillment, we ran out of CHDDR pins and had to delay around 35 orders. I contacted the few people waiting for the CHDRR and alerted them of this issue, and the pins came in last week! Finally.
This week, the few remaining orders are going out, and hopefully, all physical products will be 100% fulfilled and complete by the end of this week!
We also pushed a very large update for the Foundry VTT Pathfinder version last week, where we updated a few minor text issues and redid the CSS throughout the module to make it even more awesome. And as for the 5E version, it's nearly complete. We hope to start releasing the module in parts, like we did for the Pathfinder version.
