THE PHYLACTERY 4 and THE PHYLACTERY OMNIBUS

Created by Levi Combs

Celebrating our fourth year of putting the grind back into the Grindhouse, Planet X Games is bringing you The Phylactery Omnibus - a thick, overstuffed 6" x 9" hardbound collection of our first four zines (The Phylactery 1-4). This volume includes an additional 50+ pages of ALL NEW, never before seen content, along with creator interviews, a cover gallery, bonus art and a sketchbook that takes a look at the evolution of the zine since its inception. The content of The Phylactery zines is ALL OSR, ALL THE TIME – completely compatible with clones, retro clones and spawn-vat simulacra from early editions of the world’s most popular fantasy RPG. This big ole' boy is perfect for the "plug-n-play, straight from the page to the table" function that the original issues are known for.

Hello everyone!

The campaign is at the halfway point, so I wanted to drop some crispy previews and show off some of the great NEW art that will be going into The Phylactery 4 and The Phylactery Omnibus "Bonus Material" Section. These zines (and especially the collected omnibus) are PACKED full of art and are loaded with content.

This is just a very small sample of what's coming to you guys!

You guys did it! 

A huge thank you from the entire team here at Planet X - you guys made this our most successful Kickstarter to date!

There would be no Planet X Games if it were not for the loyal support of each and every one of you. We remind ourselves of that with every book published, every email answered, every package sent and each time we toss dice with you guys at cons. You guys showed up in a big, big way and we are very, VERY grateful for you. 

Special thanks to everyone who helped us promote this Kickstarter, from the many podcasts who had us on to talk about it to everyone involved in the live stream plays. Shout out to the righteous dudes over at the Independent Publisher’s Union and to the entire art and graphic design team for all of the hard work and support. Shout out to all the other publishers who put us in their newsletters and social media stories. Special thanks to everyone who retweeted, shared and spread the word across social media to boost the signal, time and again. The biggest thanks, of course, goes out to the backers who believed in this project enough to support it. Because of each and every one of YOU, we were able to make this project an overwhelming success. 

We are very much looking to get this in your hands and we promise that you absolutely won’t be disappointed when it lands!  

Thanks again everyone! You guys rule!
