Dear friends,

It’s Day two of the FLAMES OF FREEDOM Kickstarter, and you all continue to be amazing! We reached our first Stretch Goal yesterday afternoon, which means your books will include a full-color perforated World Map illustrated by Gabriel Brouillard. Let’s keep it going!

We think it’s about time you met our fantastic team…

FLAMES OF FREEDOM has been a collaboration of an incredibly diverse crew of developers from many different backgrounds. It simply wouldn’t be the same game without their full range of voices, talents, perspectives, and feedback. So stay tuned as we introduce you to them over the next weeks.
Today, we’ll kick it off with our two team leads:

Richard Iorio is the creator of Colonial Gothic, and the originator of the FLAMES OF FREEDOM manuscript. Recently, he shared his thoughts on the Rogue Games website about why the name change to FLAMES OF FREEDOM. You can follow Rogue Games and Richard over on Twitter.
 

Hopefully, you all know me by now. But I don't want to talk about me. Instead, I want to talk about why  diversity in tabletop RPGs is important. Would love it if you followed me on social, so we can get connected.
More to come later this week!
Did you miss Kay's First Look at the Quickplay last evening? You're in luck, because we just uploaded it to YouTube:

Finally, we've got an exciting Actual Play lined up tonight! Lead by Matt Jowett (aka the Grim Streamer), he will be joined by an incredible cast to play through 'SIN EATER' this evening:

Be sure to catch it tonight at 9pm CDT, exclusively on Twitch at the Zweihander RPG partner channel.

Cheers,
