Listen up Gamers and Metalheads! Today’s update is special.
We start this concert with showcasing the Metal Maestro screen behind which you will be crafting your Ragnarock GLORY!
Crescendo into spotlighting upcoming kickass Gods of Metal: Ragnarock streams you won’t want to miss (like Felicia Day & The Guild’s cast, or Metal band members of Gygax & Stitched Up Heart!).
Then our rock ballad encore is all about sharing some love for a fellow Kickstarter!
LET’S DIVE INTO THIS MOSH PIT!
Your Metal Maestro Screen
There’s been a lot of talk of the official Gods of Metal album, a limited edition vinyl featuring unreleased music and more with bands such as Rock and Roll Hall of Fame nominee Motörhead, Fozzy, Icon For Hire, Gygax and more.
What your players will see, hands raised in devil horns tribute to the Metal you're dealing out.
That alone is seriously amazing... but Daddy Hunters Entertainment always goes the extra mile for you! What’s METAL AS ALL HELL is the fact that the gatefold cover doubles as a tabletop screen during gameplay — elevating the everyday gamemaster into a full blown METAL MAESTRO! 🤘 (It’s not only an incredible album, it’s your GM Screen!)
This Metal Maestro (MM) Screen acts as a setlist for each game (or jam) session — helping even your most hungover self keep track of all the important ins and outs of the game.
What you, the Metal Maestro sees as you jump up to lay the Metal smackdown on Mundania.
While this is an absolute must have for any gamemaster — NOW AND FOREVER KNOWN AS A METAL MAESTRO IN GODS OF METAL: RAGNAROCK — you’ll definitely want to pick this up as a player as well. Why?
It’s cool as hell.
It’s metal as hell.
No boring-ass Mundanian poser would be caught dead without one.
In all seriousness, this is a unique, not to be missed collector’s item.
Seven of the tracks are exclusive to this album only, and the music can only be available on vinyl. Not only that, but the album itself has a strictly limited run.
Once this run of vinyl is sold out, there can’t be another. We know we’ve all heard that before, but our Mundanian lawyers told us that we actually mean it!
So, if you haven’t already, we definitely recommend you consider pledging at the $100 “NOICE!” pledge level or more so you can get the core rulebook AND the album/Metal Maestro screen.
Not only that, we’ll also throw in a PDF version of the book, a CD collection (which will also be digital), and all stretch goals, such as a dope-ass Vinyl Art Insert (featuring the Metallicorn!), Guitar Pick Tributes, and 6 full prints (8.5” x 11”) of the 6 different Gods of Metal.
BE THERE OR BE SQUARE.

YOUR WALLS ARE LOOKING A LITTLE BORING. Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered.
Now that we’ve reached the $60,000 threshold, we’re going to include 6 full prints (8.5” x 11”) of the 6 different Gods of Metal with your pledge — assuming you pledged $50 or more for the physical book or beyond (note, this will NOT be included with the standalone album pledge).
In case you somehow missed it, the Gods of Metal are a pretty big deal in this game (it is called Gods of Metal: Ragnarock after all). I mean, they’re the whole reason why you were stripped from Mundania (with your boring walls...) to become an Avatar of Metal in Ragnarock (where any walls are made of GLORY)!
Why wouldn’t you want to bask in their eminence?
BEHOLD. These Gods of Metal posters, brought from the Kickstarter page and e-hand delivered straight to your eye hole sockets. BEHOLD.
Where do your allegiances lie? Which God of Metal are you going to follow? We’d love to know in the comments below!
Press
As we’ve set out on our Gods of Metal: Ragnarock tour (aka our Kickstarter campaign) we’ve drummed up some pretty slayin’ press. Check out some of the latest hits below!
Since you were awesome enough to help us hit our $60,000 stretch goal, we’d like to set your sights on $90,000 so we can unlock an original soundtrack by REZODRONE, a group composed of Jason Charles Miller (Godhead) and Jamison Boaza.
They recently created the music for the radio tracks on the hit action role-playing video game Cyberpunk 2077 from CD Projekt, and their original Gods of Metal: Ragnarock soundtrack will provide the perfect jams to fill the backgrounds of your most epic adventures! GO GET ‘EM! 🤘

ICYMI: 666, Felicia Day, and a Rules Sneak Preview...Oh Myyy 😈 🍾
666 Backers
We hit 666 backers. 🤘 This is THE MOST METAL OF NUMBERS! So, of course we rocked a screenshot...
Thanks to everyone who helped us reach this goal and beyond!
As a token of our appreciation, we wanted to highlight a couple of different ways for you to experience some Gods of Metal: Ragnarock for yourself.
The Guild Visits Ragnarock
FIRST OFF, Felicia Day and The Guild came to visit Ragnarock! After converting their Guild Characters into Mundanians, we went down the pathway of the Umbilical Descent and discovered some Avatars that are... well very unique, even for our Metal Inspired world.
Come discover the Metal inspired version of The Guild characters guided by our Metal Maestro, Ivan Van Norman! And by the Gods, don't break up Vorks Cork. You can catch the stream here!
Rules Preview
SECONDLY, we wanted to share that you could download a whopping 32-page Rules Preview consisting of Chapter 2 and 3. You can download it HERE.
Of course, this is only a work in progress — but consider this a backstage pass to get that TASTE OF RAGNAROCK that you’ve been craving!
Fast Approaching the Next Stretch Goal
LASTLY, we are SOOOO close to hitting our $60,000 stretch goal, which will unlock 6 full print posters of all 6 Gods of Metal. So, yeah. Let’s make it happen!
That’s all for now, metalheads. STAYED TUNED FOR MORE ROCKIN’ UPDATES!

The Umbilical Descent

Thank you so much to everyone who helped us reach $50K!
That’s so totally RIGHTEOUS! We look forward to reaching $60K so that we can unlock 6 full prints of the 6 different Gods of — A resounding BOOM sounds above you as lightning splits through your skull and device, heating up your meaty innards.
As your meat puppet is catapulted forward like a rag doll towards THIS, your brain babbles.
What is this place...?
Why are you here...?
The last thing you remember is reading a Kickstarter update...
Now you're in a dark room with the light of blue-flamed candles casting a haunting glow on a chorus of glistening GIANT METAL ANGELS with featureless angular faces and chrome wings... What’s going on
One of the righteous creatures addresses you directly.
“WE ARE THE ROGNUSKULL, THOSE WHO BRING THE CHOSEN TO BEAR WITNESS TO THIS LAND AND SAVE IT FROM ALL THAT IS MUNDANE.
YOU ARE IN THE UMBILICAL DESCENT. THE BIRTHPLACE OF ALL AVATARS.
STATE YOUR RIGHTEOUS CAUSE SO THAT YOU MAY BE JUDGED.”
You stand there in silence, completely awestruck.
The creature doesn’t seem to notice. It speaks with the same booming authority.
“YOU HAVE SUFFERED. TELL THE ROGNSKULL HOW YOU WISH TO BRING TO BEAR YOUR SUFFERING AND TEDIUM.... FROM IT YOU WILL BRING GLORY TO THIS WORLD.
WILL YOU PROTECT THE INNOCENT? PERSECUTE THE WICKED? WITNESS THE UNSEEN? IF GIVEN POWER, HOW WILL YOU USE IT?”
For several moments, only the sounds of the flickering blue flames dancing in the room fill the air.
Finally you hear your voice fill the void, as you roar your Righteous Cause…
— Metal. Whoa.
That experience was pulled from “The Umbilical Descent” — the beginning of a character creation scenario for Gods of Metal: Ragnarock designed to help players get RIGHT into the game.
By the time this immersive, tonally awesome scenario is completed, players will not only be familiar with the rules and unique style of Gods of Metal: Ragnarock, but they’ll also have fully fleshed out character — ready to jump into the music-shredding adventure!
Stay tuned for more lore explorations, product highlights, and general progress updates. But mostly, STAY METAL! 🤘

First Stretch Goals Unlocked
Then the Gods of Metal said, "Let there be shreddage!" And there were Guitar Pick Tributes added to Kickstarter on the third day.
That's right! We've smashed through not one, but TWO stretch goals within the first 72 hours of launching the campaign.
That means we've unlocked a dope-ass Vinyl Art Insert. Behold the majestic glory of the Metallicorn!
We’ve also unlocked Guitar Pick Tributes, which everyone at the $100 "NOICE!" pledge level and above will receive!
Thanks to everyone who helped us reach these milestones.
With our combined efforts, we look forward to reaching our next stretch goal at $60,000 — 6 full prints of the 6 different Gods of Metal! 🤘
$500 Pledge Highlight
Beyond celebrating how much you all crush it, we wanted to take a moment to better highlight some of the awesome stuff featured in the higher pledge levels.
First up, we have a set of six GOD CANDLES that are 8" tall, glass, and packed with UNIQUE scents that are sure to set the mood before gameplay. Did we mention that Prayer Cards are included? Check them out below!
Additionally, we've got a total of six 6” METAL GODS STATUES (with a stretch goal of making them even taller down the road) so that the likeness of the Gods of Metal can grace your table (or bone altar) — worship at their Godnessess if you don’t rock enough for them to have presented themselves to you in person… YET.
These GOD CANDLES and METAL GODS STATUES (on top of all of the other awesomeness included from the lower pledge levels) — a total of 12 items NOT included in lower levels — are what really crank the volume up to 11 in this $500 level.
You DO NOT want to miss out on these Kickstarter limited items. Once we exhaust our Kickstarter run, we won't be making any more — so DEFINITELY nab them while you can!
Stay tuned as we highlight more unique items from our pledge levels!
Shred the Tabletop
What’s more metal than supporting your comrades and bandmates?
Our very own Christian Shelton — who is posting this update (how METAL is that!?) — has one week left in his own Kickstarter campaign for Skate: The Card Game.
It’s a fast-paced tabletop game with a unique 2-card hand limit for up to 8 players. You can totally blast the Gods of Metal: Ragnarock album while shredding the tabletop! 🤘
