I hope this isn't against the rules and I'm not promoting any of these, but there are so many good small press sites (and some not so small), that I have a hard time keeping up with them. I'm sure everyone here knows about 99.99% of these but I thought it would be good to have a spot for listing sites that actually publish their own items.

I know there are some members here that have sites as well and if I failed to list it, is only because I just started this for that reason. There are so many I am losing track.

I hope others can contribute more.

Unseen Servant is real small, FA1 -- The Peril of Ardun -- $6.99 | Unseen Servant Press , just one module.

But a good one. It's really a part of the excellent PbP forums that he has running.

& Magazine is part of the larger & Publishing Group and we have not only the mag available for free download, but also free modules, free supplements and a free megadungeon. & Magazine
All good stuff in our downloads section: Downloads » & Magazine

Thanks,

I can't find the website for Small Niche Games. I found them on RPGNow and Facebook but nowhere else. Do they have a site of their own?

I don't think SNG has a web site.. they did do a successful kickstarter as well (they actually devilvered as well;)
Small Niche Games â€” Kickstarter

IMHO i would not list here publishers such as goodman, moongose or troll lord... i'd not fldefine them "small print"...

My 2 cent: our frieend Thorky... he should have a lulu page only i believe (search for RC Pinnell as author).

aia,

I actually agree with you. My list grew a lot more than I first thought it would.

I want to go back and sort them by which system they support as well. That way if someone is looking for something in particular they won't have to visit every site.

This blog collected a list at one point. If you look at the blog and scroll down a bit on the left side you will the list he put together.

May be worth comparing your list to

Gothridge Manor does some nicely weird old school mini-adventures, and an excellent value printed zine, The Manor.

Oh, and there's Wizards Mutants Laser Pistols which is another really competitively priced old-school zine.

And I don't think your list picks up Venger Satanis either, though I don't know whether he counts because the print version of his Liberation of the Demon Slayer adventure is published through rpgnow.

Here's another one, with the first of what the author says will be series of delicious looking old school modules:

Freakshow Games

Edit: Yes, NSFW. Apologies (and thanks for pointing that out benjoshua)

NSFW!!! I'd be interested in a review of DUNGEONS #1-THE HANGING COFFINS OF THE VAMPIRE QUEEN which was a Kickstarter project. Any purchasers here? :?:

Mine came in the other day but I haven't had the chance to even flip through it. I did talk to the author and he is a nice guy.

In not sure if they are still available but he was including a signed photograph of a model as the vampire. Neat idea.

There is a link at the bottom of the page which says:

USA Orders (Print + PDF) $25
(includes $5 shipping
via 1st Class in USA

I clicked on the "Add to Cart" button, and it appeared to work.
