Set Sail for Adventure! 

From the jeweled islands of the tropics to the ice-choked polar seas and everywhere across the bottomless briny blue, the Pirate Campaign Compendium from Legendary Games offers 450 pages of amazing expansions for any nautical campaign using the 5th Edition of the world’s most famous roleplaying game. This beautiful book is perfect for embarking on epic journeys of exploration above or below the waves, voyages to distant shores, or full-on pirate campaigns of plunder and pillage! The Pirate Campaign Compendium brings you an incredible collection of rules for nautical campaigns of every kind, including:

  • Dozens of archetypes, class features, feats, and more for nautical characters like the privateer, and ship mage, new sorcerer metamagic and wild shape options, and tricks for underwater combat like Eel Strike and Sea Shooter, plus new character backgrounds and expanded firearm rules!
  • Maritime magic with over 60 new magic items and nearly 70 spells drawn from traditional Caribbean pirate lore but also from the distant corners of the fantasy world, from Arabia to the Arctic, to the Far East and South Pacific!
  • FIVE complete adventures for characters from 4th to 14th level! 
  • Over 40 savage sea monsters ranging from Challenge 1/8 to 23, from coral golems and seaweed leshies to deep ones and the star-spawn of Cthluhu
  • Nearly 70 ready-to-use NPCs from common pirates to officers of the line, as well as richly detailed and evocative heroes and villains ideal as recurring characters and playable pirate PCs.
  • Simple and advanced ship-to-ship combat rules, plus a dynamic and exciting fleet battle system for running major naval engagements and modular rules for shipbuilding and special ship modifications.
  • Plus tons of bonus material for navigation and storms at sea, fame and infamy, aquatic and underwater terrain, shipwrecks and plunder, shipboard roles, pirate punishment, grog, seasickness, sea shanties, a pirate glossary, and even peg legs and eyepatches

The Pirate Campaign Compendium is your indispensable resource for any 5th Edition campaign that charts a course for adventure on the open sea! Grab this book and your compass and sextant; it’s time to leave the shore behind and Make Your Game Legendary!

Will there be a POD of this and is there a list of contents for the product anyway? I have Tarin's Crown pdf, is this in the compendium?

Is there something wrong with the DraeDevil Boots?
+21 bonus on attack rolls seems ridiculous.

Is POD coming back? Is this PDF the latest revised edition? Also, $30 for a PDF seems pretty stiff, especially if I need to pay full price for a POD later.

I'm glad I dragged my feet buying the POD since I would be like the other person... paid and waiting due to your revision.... I think I will just homebrew my own and save my money....

I just recently bought this in print. It hasn't been delivered yet. I'm a little confused on whether or my copy will be the original or revised edition. Am I getting the revised one?

We uploaded a revised print file to our overseas printer, but we have not yet uploaded a revised edition here as we are going to be sending out the revised edition of the printed book to our Kickstarter backers first. Backers already have their PDFs so the Revised Edition PDF is available to everyone here.

It most certainly was the original version. Any news on when us non-backers will have access to the revised book in print? I am loath to have to buy this again but I like the revised book more.

I notice the promise of a POD last year... did you abandon the idea of offering a POD?

We uploaded one last fall, and in fact I have a sample copy right here... but something went weird with the file at the printer when we tried to make it go live and it's been a strange cat-and-mouse game trying to reexport and reupload. We finally did manage to get a new version up and into the system last week and fingers crossed that whatever strange glitch is happening (due in part to large file size, apparently) doesn't crop up again. POD hopefully available soon!

I also support the idea of a Pod option here. It can only help you make more money after all, to have another print option available.

We actually are getting low on our print-run copies of the book, so I've inquired with our layout artist about exporting a POD version of this book. I'll keep everyone up to date as things develop!

Again, consider POD, please. I really would like to have this book, like many others from your company. But those I could buy as POD+PDF bundle.
If I would buy the book from you I would have to pay more for sending it and paying taxes than the book it self costs! And that is not even considering my time at the custom-office which is one city away...

What are the five complete adventures offered in this compendium? I'm considering the "Islands of Plunder" titles, as well as "Fort Scurvy". Knowing whether any of these adventures are in the compendium would save me from purchasing a duplicate title.

Those are the same five adventures contained in this book - the four Islands of Plunder plus Fort Scurvy.

Hi all,
This book is at the printer right now, as we are doing a full print run of 1000 copies rather than doing it as print on demand. That means it won't be available through DrivethruRPG, since they only sell hardcopies through their own POD system; however, it will be even more beautiful when it arrives. The printer estimate is that books will arrive in Seattle in January and we will begin shipping them out then. You can preorder the hardback at the Legendary Games website; if you've already ordered the PDF here at DrivethruRPG let me know at makeyourgamelegendary@gmail.com and I'll be happy to give you a discount on the print book.

Please consider adding a POD version here for those in the UK as your website doesn't include us as a shipping destination. Even if it did, going by the cost of shipping to the Isle of Man (the nearest location to me in your list), it would be too much: $40!

Our website has a strange glitch with some UK customers (don't know why it's only some and not others), but if you email me directly at makeyourgamelegendary@gmail.com I can set up a transaction manually and might be able to save you on shipping.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
