2020 freerpgday digital offerings

[haldir]

@Inarah posted in the Getting to Know you better for this month in regards to today's question about freerpgday. I thought a seperate post where you can find the digital offerings would take it out of that thread.

 

Paizo's offerings will be offered on their site. I'm not exactly sure when this time. Generally it's a month or so after frpgday, but who knows this year. (August 25th or so)

 

Root rpg quickstart is on drivethrurpg. Just look for Root rpg. (Kinda wish I would have seen their Kickstarter now)

 

Humblewood is on deckofmanythings . com's webstore (Humblwood 2nd page or 1st page digital)

 

Roll20 is a code for 3 free months of Pro subscription.

 

The painting guide & Mantic mini(s) are obviously not digital. The guide might be, but it's basic painting techniques.

 

The above is all I got today.

I saw that by searching for Paizo and Free RPG a number of scenarios from previous years were available for download on their site. 

 

Also drivethru has older titles for free download.

Yah, Paizo will release, they just wait. It use to be like the Monday after Saturday, but I think the people behind freerpgday requested they wait a month or so before releasing. Who knows how it'll go this year, 2020 being 2020 in all.

 

I just downloaded all the freebie stuff from Humblewood off their site (totally forgot this one was a KS, I was interested in but backed out of it). Looks like a neat setting but I think if I were to change my rpg at the flgs (when we resume) & I was gonna go anthro, I think I'd rather run Root. It's not DnD, but a different system.

I can't find the code for the Roll20 free sub.

It's on the bottom of the physical card, you got today. It's different on each card.

Oh, I figured they'd give some of that out online given the current situation.

 

Cases are on the rise in my area, I wasn't going to risk a venture.

Paizo is contractually obligated to hold its Free RPG Day offerings for thirty days before they release them. That includes the digital releases. It also means that those of us who are volunteer coordinators need to wait until 30 days after release to schedule sanctioned games (unless they're scheduled in the store that bought in.). It's not ideal, but Free RPG Day is meant to support the game stores who took part.

 

(So yeah, the August 25th date should be roughly accurate!)

 

The other offerings were pretty awesome too. The Roll20 coupon, when I redeemed it, went a little wonky though--so watch out for that one!

Hmmn. Well, I'll check it out on Tuesday and see if the local store has any left, thanks.

So... went by the store this morning, picked up some figures (put in an order for some more) and asked about Free RPG Day stuff.  Was handed a box and told I could help myself to whatever was left.  Surprised to see most of the library bookshelf minis in the box, got one for myself and one for DH, also got us each a Roll20 code (they are unique) and picked up the Keyforge adventure booklet.  I don't know the system, but it could be inspirational.

My shop sent me a message today about a backorder (Wizkids Kraken!!!!), so I think I'll make my way up there tomorrow & see what's left. Not much I really want, as I got what I wanted Saturday. Kids on Brooms might be something, maybe more of the library, etc etc.
