[QUOTE="MNblockhead, post: 9056134, member: 6796661"] I backed 7th Sea because I was still in my excited phase of just getting back into TTRPGs. The length of time involved in getting the materials and the eventual realization that I just didn't have the time to use the material was my first lesson in avoiding knee-jerk backing of projects. I hear enough about 7th Seas in on-line communities that I assume that there is an active community of fans but I've never run into it in the wild and I can't even recall seeing it in the various on-line game matching forums. Yes. Matt Coleville has a large and dedicated fan base. You'll see this book reocommended in forums fairly frequently. I've recommended in EN World threads on a number of occasions. It is one of the 5e books that I've gotten the most use of. I didn't get the Kingdoms and Warfare book, but I am backing his Flee! Mortals book. I feel confident that when I back an MCDM project it will be of good quality, will be managed well, generally deliver on time, and will have great communication with backers. I put MCDM up there with Kobold Press for well run Kickstarter campaigns that are more than just pre-selling. They make their backers part of the development and play testing. 7th Seas feels like a one-hit wonder to me, but perhaps I'm just not hanging out in the same online spaces as its fans. MCDM is no one-hit wonder. Matt has built a highly successful company and community off of the Strongholds & Followers campaign and has consistently delivered quality content, including fanzines, video content, 5e supplements, miniatures, and is now working on his own game system.
