Latest Updates from Our Project:

Hello Mechfinder, My New Friend
about 1 year ago – Wed, Nov 01, 2023 at 03:24:14 PM

Hello everyone! My name is James Beck, I am one of the original creators of Mechfinder and am so excited to be talking to you today! If you backed Monstrous Beasts, you'd recognize me from all of the updates, and if you didn't, hello! I tend to write updates, distribute PDFs for playtests, and have the honor of writing a large portion of the project.

Digital Add-on's

We will be sending out surveys soon and with that, we will start distributing the files for ancestries, classes, etc through DriveThruRPG. If you don't have a DriveThruRPG account, we highly suggest you make one so we can keep your files up to date with any errors we find in them.

Playtests?

We are working on getting the first playtest for Pathfinder 2e to be out by December 1st! This is going to cover:

  • Chapter 1: Handling the Rules
  • Chapter 2: Building a Pilot
  • Chapter 3: Building a Mech

This is going to cover 30+ pages of content! (an insane number I know). We are also working on a Mech Builder Google Sheet to help accelerate the process of mech building. We are currently reviewing how to make the chapter more accessible and make more sense.

As I wrap up this update, I will leave you with the name of a rank 10 spell written by one of my co-authors, PJ Megaw. The name is...Planar-Nuclear Devastation

Funded and Now What?

Hello! Welcome officially to Mechfinder: Universe of Mech and Magic! My name is James Beck, I am a co-founder of Eldritch Osiris Games and one of the lead writers of Mechfinder! You're going to primarily hear from me with every update.

Funded!

Yes! We're funded! I know we were funded a few days ago but we wanted to hit a few stretch goals but also form a plan in terms of playtesting. We continue to crush stretch goals (thank you very much) and we continue to add more authors and add more content to the book.

Now What?

When the kickstarter ends, we're going to continue working on the book (I'm currently running playtests to test out the AI companions and are writing the AI Eidolon which originates from Cyberyllous (the cyber plane). Our playtests are going to hit a few bases with each one. We plan on doing at least 1 playtest per month with the first dropping in November (can't believe that's only 2 months away). It's going to cover the basics of building mechs, mech families, and some lore! Our playtests will generally follow a basic structure of content for players, content for GM's, lore for everyone! We're going to start playtests in Pathfinder 2e and will release 5e versions of the playtests as they get converted into 5e. We're going to be writing for Pathfinder 2e first and then sending the content to our 5e team (which I get to work on with an amazing 5e specialist from Monday Monsters) to convert. I'm also working on expanding on the "mech building" section to provide more options for each and every part and more systems.


Thank you everyone for backing Mechfinder and I can't wait to show you what we've got so far!
