Welcome new Patrons! (Patreon)

Holy MOLEY this Patreon is suddenly enormously enormous! Welcome new patrons! We realize you new folks are here for ARCADIA and we are also here for it. :D

I just wanted to say hi to everyone and let you know we are hugely excited by the influx of new patrons. You are our supporters and we want to make sure you feel welcome and valued.

Arcadia is definitely the focus of this patreon now, but this is also the official MCDM Patreon, so in addition to ARCADIA you’re gonna see some other stuff here related to what we do. We tag each post so it's easier to find whatever it is you're interested in, and you can use the little tag carousel at the top of our page to jump to posts that share a tag.

We release videos on YouTube about running D&D, how to get started as a DM (it’s fun and easier than it looks!), how to be a better DM, or just how not to make the mistakes I made. :D So you’ll occasionally see the scripts for those videos here. Not a big deal, just a behind the scenes look at the next video, usually goes up a day or two before the video releases.

I also run a D&D game on Twitch called The Chain of Acheron which is currently in suspended animation while the players and I wait for a vaccine and for it to be safe to gather in person again. Once that starts back up later this year (crosses fingers) you’ll also see my weekly notes.

We provide these just so new DMs can see at least one other way another DM organizes their sessions. By no means the “right” way, but new DM’s sometimes imagine their notes should be very organized and then experience some relief when they see how an experienced DM’s notes are more of a mess. :D

We also produce larger, more ambitious 5E products like Strongholds & Followers and Kingdoms & Warfare. Kingdoms and Warfare is currently my main focus, but updates for that are posted on the Kickstarter site.

Generally, I think if you like ARCADIA you’ll also find value in the other stuff we do :D

In the meantime, stay tuned for more Arcadia! We'd like to get out a post about Arcadia development every week or so, showing off some of the behind-the-scenes work that went into developing the previous issue and maybe some previews of what's coming in the next one when it's ready. Probably use some polls to see what you folks are interested in, that kind of thing.

Peace, Out!
