Do you know who is universally loved and adored by RPG players and the tabletop community? Bards. These whimsical, musically talented being should never be overlooked. As in the new 5e RPG Kickstarter, Sirens: Battle of the Bards, the bards are out and ready to kickstart the brand new revolution, coming from Apotheosis Studios.

There is no catch, if you do not want to be a bard when entering the city of Salvata, you do not have to as the realm welcomes all different walks of life. Players can join an already created faction within the game, or build their own way into the game.
The pledges on this Kickstarter comes in all different shapes and sizes. Including the option for the full adventure to be played virtually. This campaign has partnered up with some incredibly popular platforms such as Weave, Roll20 and FantasyGrounds so you can get stuck in without waiting for the mail - although it is worldwide shipping. However, if you want to play this game without being linked to any other platform and just download and play, the PDF version is available too.

If you are anything like me and have a weakness to the spoils and shiny objects of Kickstarter: the stunning hardcover with all needed accessories is certainly one to not be overlooked.
The book contains 300 different pages jam-packed with everything you need to know about the universe and set off into an adventure on your own. It includes 20 different adventures are 10 new bard sub-classes for you to rock out in fantastical style. There is so much information and opportunity awaiting with Sirens, I am looking forward to see what stretch goals become available when they start to unlock.

Kickstarter has been live for one whole day and was funded in the first 40 minutes of the campaign being live. I will be keeping an eye on this campaign as it is most certainly a world I would love to visit.
"There is a whole world that can be taken from this Kickstarter - and quite literally. Where do I even begin? Well, Sirens: Battle of the Bards is not just a campaign for 5E, no, no no! It is a setting with endless opportunity too. "
I presume you were trying to link to the ks video, but the one above is a ‘Let’s Play’ for Warmachine.
However… having visited the ks and watched the actual video… I think the war machine one is better.
Terrible lip syncing by that woman who always dresses up as an elf made me cringe. Somethings you can’t un-see no matter how much you want to.
The next UK Eurovision contestant.?
An interesting looking game.
