Frog Gods, Troll Lords and more on Humble Bundle

I'm not associated with any of these companies, but I'm still not sure whether I should post this in this forum or in news/adverts - but I'll go with here and welcome the mods moving it if I was mistaken.

I'm just writing to let folks know that Humble Bundle has a good collection of 5e products available for the next two weeks or so.

Since you're not associated, there's no problem with posting this in the main forum. Thanks.

So, anything worth checking out?

I am more concerned about my time than money, since its obviously a good deal when compared to buying separately...

I personally think the Cults book from Kobold Press is excellent. The Rappan Athuk maps are very good even for older editions. The World of Jordoba setting is system neutral and is interesting.

The adventure modules are generally pretty decent. The Troll Lord ones are castles and crusades adventures converted over to 5e and their stories have been around for long enough with good enough reviews that they should be decent (I think they are good).

Yeah I got the full Humble Bundle for this.
Lots of maps and stuff, which are OK, but I probably won't use them much. Well, I might build some of the 3d terrain things.

But also lots of short scenarios, a setting book.
Various NPC/adventurer character profiles.
Much more stuff I haven't downloaded yet.

It's a bargain. There's a LOT of stuff.

I wasn't impressed by this bundle, but it inspired me to try to track down my stuff from the cool 2017 bundle. Turns out I could (with difficulty) recover the Kobold Press stuff from HB, but not the Frog God stuff - HB gave me a key to send to FG to ask for it...

Lesson of the story: always register an account with HB, and back up your files to the Cloud.

If I played 5e, I'd buy that bundle. There's a fuckton of stuff for lunch money.

I bought it because Stacy doesn't want me to.

Of course, I did adjust the sliders to give more of the money to the charity...
