Scalding Seas - Coming Soon

Announcing Scalding Seas by Pyroguy, a new biome in the Kingdom Death Monster world. 

What is Scalding Seas

The survivors will struggle to survive in this new aquatic landscape, hunting new quarries and facing down against all new nemesis monsters in a new campaign that re-utilizes and tweaks the skeleton of People of the Lantern. Discover the power of watercrafts through the new engineering line of innovations, build new bui...

Character Sheets

I was never going to release these, but had been getting an unusual amount of request for them lately. I use a mixture of dry eraser during the showdown, and pencil afterwards, so I wanted to a character sheet that recorded information with that in mind.

Secondary, I HATE tokens. I forget about them all the time. So, I wanted to include information that would have been recorded on tokens in a spot where math was right there. (Ie. You will see attributes have boxes for normal, gear, and ...

Early Game Gear - Final Release

Author: Duce*

Additional Materials from Ripptor and Revel911

Playtesting and Feedback from Mr. Pelo, ChaoFarseer, Slay, Cryptix, Pyroguy, and many more.

This new release increases the amount of Bone Gear potentially built, while also adding in completely new gear that is Acanthus focused. Each of these sets has been tied to the game's Death Principles (we have included CE versions for those that prefer playing with CE) to add more choice and narrative when your group chooses...

Vermin Cards - Public Release

CCG is looking to bolster one of the thinnest decks in the core game. Out of the Vermin contest last year + a few others, here is the Vermin we will be releasing.

The bookmark Nightmare Paella is not solely CCG, and is "official content" from the KDM Facebook/IG pages that we've just turned into a more accessible asset.

Edit Notes: Due to feedback, we reworked some of the existing ideas.

Strain Milestone Tracker

Hey everyone!

Just releasing this utility document we’ve been working on! Now you can keep this document with your settlement and survivor record sheets and track your overall strain milestone progression between your campaigns. Say “goodbye!” to having to flip through an increasingly larger stack of cards to see if you’ve met a strain milestone condition and say “hello!” to being able to quickly glance at this sheet instead!

There is lots of room to write custom strai...

Looking to make new Vignettes - Need Help

The idea of the vignettes CCG makes were about two things:

• Have ready made survivors at a variety of levels to test upcoming CCG content
• Have ready made survivors so that players can jump into ANY content at ANY LY. Why create a new settlement just to test out a new expansion?

The issue that some of our vignettes were over-powered. Ripptor who's settlement some of these are from is one of KDM's elite power players. What I want to do now is make another set on ...

Test, Test, Test ... Releases around the corner

Greetings folks

We are hard at working getting a few projects into the beta phase for everyone.

Whatever feedback ANYONE is willing to give towards the improvement of Harvester Worm or Wandering Watcher ... WE WILL TAKE!

The more feedback we get, the quicker we can release these out the door.

We will be releasing Settlement Terrain into the wild. My desire has always been to bring Nemesis fights into town. I started this with Hovel and Cowering Survivor as part of F...

Black Friday Special from CCG - Alternate Prologue

In a land of carved stone faces, men and women with pale lanterns awake from their dreamless sleep. Their sojourn has been long, but their efforts finally gift them a safe place to call their own. Before they can establish a sense of order, strangers with ink-stained eyes and blood-covered hands stumble into their midst, dragging a horrific carcass behind them.

The Alternate Prologue introduces roll tables for players to quickly establish their Kingdom Death: Monster campaign without re...

Quackalope

Wanted to pass this along as we support our friends in gaming, especially when they will be playing some Kingdom Death.

Those that came for the Quidditch Miniatures Game

Good morning. If you recently signed up to see updates for the Quidditch game that I was producing freely for the community, I have been requested by Patreon and those at Warner Bros to take all content down. I will be evaluating if there is a next step and if I can show progress of such progression on this website. I do greatly apologize.

King's Coin is ready

Only the ignorant believe their survival depends on strength and luck. To those who have held a King’s Coin, the veil of limitations falls away and far greater freedoms are made known. The most powerful and prosperous found out long ago the value of such a currency and do their utmost to ensure they do not end up in the hands of common folk. But on occasion, a King’s Coin is dropped by the fallen to be wasted in the hands of those who know little of its worth. For the astute however, a pr...

Storm Dancer Public Release (With and Without Drifter Knight Patch)

From the beginning stages of the Drifter Knight, Jay and I had always felt there was a natural synergy between the Storm Knight and Drifter Knight as beings of water.

We also saw both of our gear sets as incomplete.

This small expansion remedies that. In this expansion from Jay and I, once you finish fighting the Storm Knight a new nemesis appears bored of the weakness of the world. Now, they are still different beings with different agendas, but they are tied together by this Leg...

A "Card a Month" from CCG Contributors

We have quite a few large expansions in the works, but I wanted to give back to the community some smaller returns. So, members of the CCG group are gonna release an internal contest of new cards each month where we jockey for best each month.

• October: Gear - Armor and Accessories
• November: Disorders
• December: Fighting Arts

The Every month on the 1st, CCG creators will start creating a new card. On the 20t...

Forsaker Sisters - Nemesis

 In the darkness only the strongest survive, or the most fierce. Some take this philosophy to heart and become obsessed to create the strongest progeny who may prey upon their nightmares rather than be preyed upon.

The Forsaker Sisters come from a far-off land, seeking the settlement’s strongest for such sinister purposes. Grace and Glory enjoy toying with their enemies as much as they do slaughtering them. Their rage and bloodlust can only be outmatched by their intoxicating all...

Custom Gear - Artist Spotlight

I want to introduce the first wave of custom art for gear and resources thanks to the generous donations from this Patreon.

These are from the artist Valentina Barić, freelance artist mostly doing illustration, board game assets, environment, and creature concept art.

The CCG People of the Lantern Pass and Play Campaign Has Begun!

On Thursday night, a group of CCG members engaged in the Prologue and Lantern Year 1 of this new campaign. Survivors died, we built cool stuff (weapon crafter and a Zanbato at the second settlement phase), and some at least the beginning of a quite powerful survivor began.

What's next?
Cheshire and I will spend the next couple nights making sure the board is 100% cleaned up for people, as well as making sure all correct expansions have been added and are easy to find...

Tactics and Building Better Monsters

Hi! I’m ChaosFarseer, or Alex in real life. I’ve been working on a custom monster for a while, now, as well as obsessively commenting on other Kingdom Death homebrew monsters or content. This article is inspired by a friend of mine, who found quite a few Kingdom Death showdowns to be boring, straightforward puzzles, which led to thinking about the difference between a good and a bad showdown, which led to this. 

I’ve developed a general theory for what makes a good tactical e...

Lantern Year 5 Vignette

These low level Vignettes from ChaosFarseer come with a great timeline that can be found here. We have posted a ton of very powerful Survivors, but when testing .... we also need to test the reverse side.

One of the things the CCG team will be creating is custom vignettes so the players can playtest our new expansions or just jump in to a later game of their own. Th...

In honor of Gencon, the CCG is excited to announce our first group-play kingdom death campaign!

 In honor of Gencon, the CCG is excited to announce our first group-play kingdom death campaign! Join us in a TTS (Table Top Simulator)-based People of the Lantern campaign including CE and CCG content where each player will be playing 1+ Lantern Year and then passing the TTS file off to the next player. If there is enough interest in this revolving campaign, we will do multiple tables. We are accepting CCG Patrons, contributors, and any KDM player who wants to join in for fun.

Quackalope is Elevating Kingdom Death

About two years ago when I was 100% consumed by my love for Kingdom Death: Monster - I found myself frustrated by the lack of both audio products and narrative storytelling within the community. I decided I would attempt to change that. 

After hours of research, playing, and writing I started to produce a KDM journal that I then transformed into a narrative story from the perspective of a scout. I wanted to find a balance between gameplay, story, and accu...

Forsaker Sisters Art Poll

I have attached two Illustrations for the upcoming Forsaker Sisters' book.

The objective was to go in a very line art illustration style in the vein of Blood Witch, but the artist sent me a version with a simple background.

Which version should the CCG team go with? Whatever direction is chosen, we will be doing the same for all of the illustrations in the book.

Mundane Terrain

Here are a few new terrain options to bring out more variance for your showdown board.

Flower Knight - Non-Bloom People Campaign Integration

by: The Aluminum Man

Spurred on by a simple question from the user Ketchup through the Lantern’s Reign discord channel where they asked:

“Any homebrew rules for adding Flower Replica Sword and Flower Helm to a non-Bloom campaign?”

I decided to whip together an “integration package” for this rare gear. Normally, these gear cards are only available to survivors from the Flower Knight expansion’s Bloom People campaign, where the Flower Knight is deified and inspire...
