Create and run 5E adventures that crackle with rich lore, dark plots, and glorious NPCs! A homebrewer’s guide to better fantasy cities.
From Lankhmar to Minas Tirith, from Waterdeep to Zobeck and on to King’s Landing, cities and towns have always played a pivotal role in fantasy games and stories.

Campaign Builder: Cities & Towns provides a complete toolkit to create, expand, and enhance the cities and towns in your 5th Edition game, whether you are running an established setting or working with an original or homebrew setting. From guilds to temples, and from useful NPCs to wild tables of plots and rumors, Campaign Builder: Cities & Towns strengthens and expands your game’s world immediately.
In addition to the Campaign Builder hardcover and PDF editions, this Kickstarter will fund the creation of the Cities & Towns Map Folio of 10 wet/dry-erase battle maps (each a hefty 24 inches by 36 inches in size) as well as a Roll20 VTT edition for digital play that includes those maps and all the monsters and NPCs (included with all pledges at no extra charge!). This last element marks the first time Roll20 has made it possible to offer a “buy the book, get the Roll20 version included free”—so you don’t pay twice for the same content in different formats!

The products created by this Kickstarter (including the hardcover book, the map folio, and Shard and Fantasy Grounds VTT) are also available as add-ons.
Once you choose a primary reward, you can add digital items if you have a digital reward, and digital or print items if you have a print reward.

This project ships worldwide, with friendly shipping the US, Canada, UK, EU, and Australia/New Zealand. More details are in the FAQ.
“Friendly shipping” simply means bulk rate shipping to reduce postage costs (in some international projects, postage costs can exceed the cost of the reward itself).
Kobold Press packs and ships rewards on a container on a freighter (or a truck for Canada) and ships that way to a local partner. The local partner then packages and ships rewards to backers in that country.

Once we hit our minimum funding level, we will expand the project with stretch goals. With each stretch goal, we will add to the project: more maps, more NPCs, and even more more tables for the city development charts.
