In November 2017 we presented the all-new Worldbuilder’s Toolkit +5, our fifth annual bargain-priced collection of gamemastering ebooks that help you design RPG campaign settings and run adventures. There were three titles in our Starter Collection (retail value $51):
- Be a Better Campaign Master, Book One: Building the World (Absolute Tabletop, retail price $13): Michael Barker of the BeABetterGameMaster YouTube channel helps you create a world map, step by step.
- A Magical Medieval Society: Western Europe Third Edition (Expeditious Retreat Press, retail $18): The new 2016 edition of the venerable reference work about the nuts and bolts of medieval cultures.
- Sly Flourish’s Fantastic Locations (Sly Flourish, retail $20): The author of The Lazy DM’s Guide gives you 20 fabulous and fascinating system-agnostic settings you can drop into any FRPG.
Those who paid more than the threshold (average) price also got our entire Bonus Collection with four more titles worth an additional $70.50:
- Ultimate Toolbox (Alderac Entertainment, retail $30): Four hundred pages, that’s 400 pages, of tables and adventure seeds for any fantasy game system.
- Kobold Guide to Plots & Campaigns (Kobold Press, retail $10): Nineteen essays by 13 expert gamemasters including Jeff Grubb, Zeb Cook, Margaret Weis, Robert Schwalb, and many more.
- Palladium Compendium of Weapons, Armour, & Castles (Palladium Books, retail $12.50): This 232-page Fifth Printing (1999) of the classic 1981 treatise debuts here in electronic form as a brand-new .PDF with searchable text. This Compendium is currently available only in this offer and nowhere else.
- Hand-Drawn City Maps (retail $18): Cartographer Alyssa Faden provides this exclusive collection of beautiful full-color city maps. (See some of these maps in Alyssa’s Cartographers’ Guild portfolio.)

Is there a way to choose an alternative charity? There are multiple problems with Heifer International, both in principle and practice.
Whether or not you agree in principle with “gifting” other animals, Heifer International’s programmes aren’t always what people in developing countries actually need.
There’s a more detailed critique at this link, from a development charity that disagrees in principle:
http://awfw.org/no-animal-gifts/
And here’s from a charity evaluator who has no in-principle issue, but has more practical concerns:
https://blog.givewell.org/category/heifer-international/
Contact me (allenvarney (at) Gmail) with the offer you bought and the amount you paid, and ask that the charity portion of your payment be designated for the contributors instead.
That is eye-opening material about Heifer International. I’ll think carefully before donating to them again.
