Just bumping this as a reminder for anyone who wants to back in. There's only 12 hours left. Currently it's sitting at $2.4 million. That puts is at over half of the $4.6 million dollars the original crowdfunder made. Super impressive results!

Dang it would be fun to have Matt run Draw Steel for you. That was a fun little video that did a good job of explaining the Draw Steel gameplay loop to people. Honestly I hope to see more stuff like that video. I’m really enjoying Draw Steel but it feels like MCDM isn’t really promoting it...

I dropped $200 on the everything physical and digital bundle for Crack the Sun when that Draw Steel crowdfunding campaign started. Before that I bought The Summoner and Fall of Blackbottom digital release for Draw Steel on black Friday. My last physical purchase was the Daggerheart book back...

Glad to see Daggerheart was such a huge success. I haven’t personally played it yet but it looks like it was be an awesome game for in person play. Yeah reading over the core book you’re 100% right about that, and while some people are great at that, I think a lot of GMs aren’t great at that...

Just speculation based on the fact the OGL stuff was hitting mainstream news outlets, like the following: https://www.washingtonpost.com/video-games/2023/01/19/dungeons-and-dragons-open-game-license-wizards-of-the-coast-explained/...

Yeah I don’t think the OGL crisis had any major effect on HAT box office. I suspect the biggest impact it has was a high level exec at Paramount may have made an angry phone call or sent an angry email to Hasbro telling them to fix whatever that thing that all the D&D fans were angry about...

While the main way to get XP is victories in combat (which convert into xp when taking a respite), you also grant victories for successful negotiations and skill montage tests. As a director of my characters did something clever to get around a combat encounter I would give them a victory for...

I’ve been running the Delian Tomb for my group. We’ve gone through a number of sessions- they’ve gotten to level 2 and have completed most of the sandbox quests. Both myself and my players are really enjoying system. We’re all super impressed with how polished the game feels and the game itself...

I imagine it will do worse, as Matt has mentioned it’s very likely many backers backed because of the OGL crisis or haven’t actually played it. It’s also more specialized than the two core books. Still I think we’ll see it be very successful. I wouldn’t at all be surprised to see it hit 2 or...

And Crack the Sun has officially passed its $1.25 million goal about 14 hours after launch.

I’ve been watching Matt’s livestream from earlier today (not the pre recorded video ) and he mentions that Draw Steel sells hundreds of units a day right now. First time I’ve seen him mention sales numbers (though he has mentioned it’s very successful in the past). He doesn’t break down the...

I’m not a patreon and I still use Codex.

I’m running the Delian Tomb in the Codex right now. The Codex is in alpha right now so it’s still early and in active development. It also only goes to level 3 right now. Still it works pretty well and there is a Delian Tomb module you can download that has pretty much everything set up. I...

If you have people who might be interested pick up the Delian Tomb on the MCDM store for $10. It’s a level 1-3 adventure with all the rules you need for those levels for only $10.

Agreed. And even with their realistic goal of 1.25 million they’re probably going to hit it by the end of the day.
