Patreon Premiere - The Battle of Valmy (Patreon)

Dear Patrons,

We're delighted to bring you our latest premiere - the Battle of Valmy!

In this episode we dive into the tumult of the French Revolution, and explore the momentous battle upon which its future depended. Keen readers of credits will spot that we are welcoming another Macartney-Filgate onto the team! Christopher is the younger brother of Patrick of PMF fame, proving that this is not only a very talented family, but one with a profound passion for musket-era warfare!

-- Before we leave you to enjoy the video, a quick 'Public Service Announcement' regarding Patron payments...

As newsletter readers will know, we've got a lot of new videos premiering on Patreon over the next two months: two new videos in May, three in June.

While this is undoubtedly fantastic and exciting news, we thought it worth quickly reminding all our Patrons that you are billed per video, and not per month.

BUT - if you have any concern that our sudden burst of industry will leave you out of pocket - Patreon allows every supporter to set up a 'monthly max', which means you can still get access to all our new videos, but only be charged up to your monthly max amount.

You can find out how to set this up here: https://support.patreon.com/hc/en-gb/articles/115002984506-How-do-I-set-a-monthly-max-for-my-membership.

Of course, there is no charge in any month that we don't release a video, and three videos in one month is still going to be a very rare occurrence.. so we hope you'll keep this in mind if you're setting up a 'monthly max' ;)

We hope that's been helpful for anyone who is unfamiliar with Patreon's payment system.

Thanks as always for your tremendous support. Enjoy Valmy, and we'll be back with the next instalment in our Rise of China series soon.

Toby
