World of Hurt and lots of pictures in the Field Guide. This is going to be a great edition of the game.

Oh yeah!!! Jeff uses the word "definitive" in some of his promos and it's certainly shaping up to be exactly that!!  |

21st stretch goal reached!
$90,000 - Storm Surge Adventure Trio: At this funding level, we will produce a three-scenario set, suitable for use as standalone adventures or as an interconnected campaign. The scenarios will trace the rising tide of conflict between the Incorporate city states and the native insurgency and follow the seemingly vain efforts of the GEO to keep peace on the waterworld. The players can be of any or related factions, and depending upon their interests, moderators can lead the story directly into the secrets of Wormhole. This reward will be offered in PDF format only.

This Kickstarter is going better than I could have imagined, holy hell we might clear all stretch goals! My excitement is palpable. I know my gaming group is all excited for me to run BP again in a new edition! |

22nd stretch goal reached!
$100,000 - Wormhole Bonus Content and Print-on-Demand: At this funding level, we'll double the size of Wormhole to 20k words and produce a POD version of the book. After all, even these extra pages will not be enough to contain all the secrets we want to share. Backers will get a POD code for at-cost purchase though DTRPG, but will be responsible for all shipping and at-cost printing fees. Please note that production logistics mean this book may be delivered after the primary rewards of the campaign.

23rd stretch goal reached!
$107,000 - Virtual Table Top Assets: Funding this goal will provide a collection of Blue Planet: Recontact resources (maps, counters, artwork) in generic formats that can be downloaded from DriveThruRPG and used on most online, RPG virtual play platforms. We will also produce a number of platform-specific, automated character sheets - the given platforms will depend on development costs.

24th stretch goal reached!

Final stretch goal reached!
$120,000 - World of Hurt Bonus Content and Print-on-Demand: At this funding level, we'll double the size of World of Hurt to 20k words and produce a POD version of the book. There are too many tales of trial and triumph to be told on Earth in 2199 not to give you more room to play there. Backers will be given a POD code for at-cost purchase though DTRPG, but will be responsible for all shipping and at-cost printing fees. Please note that production logistics mean this book may be delivered after the primary rewards of the campaign.
Above $120,000: Any funds raised beyond this level will go toward improving the quality of the core books and previously unlocked stretch goals with more illustrations, maps, freelance assignments and production upgrades. We are intentionally ending itemized stretch goals here so that we do not risk “mission creep” and overload production. We are dedicated to keeping the scope manageable and the project moving forward. This campaign has been a wonderful and surprising success, and we want to be certain we deliver as promised. Thank you for your faith, generosity and ongoing support.

All stretch goals! Fantastic news for Jeff and Biohazard! I'm really looking forward to the new edition. Lots more content about the Wormhole and World of Hurt, all the illustrations, campaign archetypes, even more gorgeous maps, and everything else that's going into Recontact.

Ok, that was one awesome ride. To be honest I wasn't 100% sure if all the goals will get unlocked, really happy to see they were. Now I need to get my players organized a bit, I wonder if I'll manage to run a campaign for a year and a half, and then move everyone onto the new system...  |

I didn't dare hope this Kickstarted would be as successful as it's been! It's going to be amazing to see Blue Planet back for a new generation of gamers to discover. I can't wait to have my copy when we're finally ready to have gaming conventions again so I can introduce people to the game without explaining how it's been out of print for twenty years. |

What a time for my bank to think they found something suspicious on my card and cancel it. Let's hope the new card arrives before the "please pay Kickstarter" deadline passes!
