My Friend Matt is Not Helpful

Well, when he's not designing logos for me he's not.

I'm trying to come up with a good 400 word blurb for Isle of the Unknown's "Featured Product" message on RPGNow.

Since I suck at this kind of this sort of thing. I can make cool stuff, publish cool stuff, talk your ass off about it... but I can't sum it up without being corny.

330 hexes of adventure, with over 100 unique monsters and more magic and mystery than you can shake a stick at! The Isle of the Unknown is a setting that can be inserted in any traditional fantasy role-playing campaign.
That's bland and sucky, right?

So maybe I should get sarcastic. Landed me a wife off of OKCupid, worth a shot.

330 hexes of adventure, with over 100 unique monsters and tons of magic and mystery and more. DAMN is it cool. See that cover art? How cool it is? The coolness of that cover is totally representative of the coolness inside this bad boy. The Isle of the Unknown is a setting that can be inserted in any traditional fantasy role-playing campaign.
hmm. So I ask Matt for some advice. His suggestion?

Without Isle of the Unknown your campaign is as naked, evidently, as everyone on all of my covers.
*sigh*

    I thought my first suggestion of TOGA! TOGA! TOGA! TOGA! was perfectly fine.

    "We don't know what you want, but we know what we want: 330 hexes of adventure, 100 new monsters we've never seen before, magic, mystery, terror and absolutely no filler. We're going to get a lot of fuel out Isle of the Unknown no matter what kind of fantasy RPG we run. You can take it or leave it, but we're pretty happy."

    Personally, I can't see why there's anything wrong with matt's suggestion.

    "Lot of used colouring books for sale. Master colourist Billy, aged 5 when he began - now 7, has tastefully decorated these bestiaries using every colour known to man. Proceeds go to Disney Foundation for Blind Orphans."

    There's a dread land known in every mans heart, somewhere which is too far, too much the edge of existance itself. The unknown is always in a lovers embrace with death, for how often do men know when they are about to die?

    The isle of the unknown is that place where you end and something else, something distinctly not human, continues on, in your shoes.

    And so on... :)
