Free RPG Day is Coming This Saturday!

[DeathInFrance]

Hey, so Free RPG day is Saturday, June 16th & below. Just curious why Privateer Press decided to not participate.

Here the link to the official Free RPG Date site: http://freerpgday.com/

The link will show you all the sweet swag you LGS will be giving away.



*NOTE: I'm in no way associated with anyone who organizes Free RPG Day or any LGS, I just found out about this today & was surprised to not see PP's name on the list of participants.*

My guess: It would be due to them waiting till their official launch of their RPG. To quote the website:

For Free RPG Day, Impressions works with participating hobby game retailers and RPG publishers to bring NEW
RPG Quickstart Rules and Adventure Modules into the hands of gamers.

As they state new rules and adventures. While IKRPG is new, it's not even released. They wanted to save the big release for GenCon doing this might take some of the wind out of it.

It's all about timing. Would have required getting something together at a moment when we were already quite busy with L&L and getting the first actual RPG book to press. If this event was a little later in the year, things might have aligned.

There's always next year. It's probably a better time anyway. You'll have the book out and a legion of PGs ready to run events at their local stores.
