Hey everyone! 

We finished at $30,303. Nice work! And if you missed some rewards or you're a patron looking to add more on so you can spend credits, don't worry, as we'll have Pledge Manager open in a couple of weeks.

Here's the schedule for what's going to happen:

Today - Campaign ended!
2/24/25 - I receive the lunar dice from Yaniir at GAMA trade expo.
2/25/25 - Campaign funds. Any lingering items are paid for and ordered.
2/26/25 - Pledge manager opens. You'll add in your addresses, pay for shipping, get some add-ons, and so forth.
3/12/25 - Lock-in date. That's when we charge for shipping and finalize addresses. PDFs go out for all the content, namely the main book.
3/15/25 - Goods start shipping. Stuff in the US will come from my store in Oklahoma. Outside the US will either come from the US (if it's got stuff other than the books) or from our printer, Kindle Direct, if it's just books.
4/8/25 - The next Broadsword campaign begins—Guide to the Negative Energy Plane.

If you have any additional questions, let me know here or contact us at [email protected].

You're also free to message me on Discord any time you like.

Thanks again all!

Final 24 Hours
about 1 month ago – Mon, Feb 10, 2025 at 10:28:58 AM

Hey followers!

If you're following along, we're now in the final 24 hours! As previously stated, everything is done and ready to go. So as soon as you sign up and the campaign is funded around the 27th, we'll send out the links for the Pledge Managers. After a two week grace period, we'll charge and then you'll get the PDFs followed shortly by shipping notifications for physical backers. 

I plan to post all notifications of shipped goods so you know the status in case anything gets hung up in customs/tarrifs, etc.

So make sure you back soon if you want to grab a hold of this book!

Later!

Stretch Goaly-Goal
about 1 month ago – Sun, Feb 09, 2025 at 09:15:53 AM

Hey friends,

Call it a stretch goal if you will, but I've decided that for all of you who backed this campaign, I will automatically share with you the next Broadsword Guide (coming in April) PDF for FREE!

What is the next Broadsword Guide? Glad you asked!



Dead things, Mikey. Dead things.

Note that this isn't completed yet, but will be by around late March to April. In the meantime, you'll be getting everything else that you paid for (and any extras I feel like giving you) shortly after the Pledge Manager opens.

Enjoooy!

Well dang... here's another FREE adventure for yas
about 1 month ago – Mon, Feb 03, 2025 at 08:23:30 AM

This is an oldie but a goodie.

It took me about two days to go back through it and proof it (for like, the fourth time). I just finished it up last night and have it all reformed.

This is an adventure I hold near and dear to me.

Plus, it's a part of this campaign:

It's QUEEN OF THE SHADOWS...

A 5th-level adventure featuring love, betrayal, revenge, and a whoooole lot of undead.

https://www.patreon.com/posts/121411571

This is one of my larger adventures; it's got 50 pages of content. All of it is free, although I did omit the maps (it took me a few days to recreate Tom's maps, but don't worry, I gave links to Tom's versions).

Anyways, enjoy!

And if you haven't already, back this darn pre-order campaign!

The Best of DMDave - Shrine of the Emperor of Bones (FREE)
about 1 month ago – Thu, Jan 30, 2025 at 07:17:34 AM

So this is going to sound weird.

I've been thinking for a while about how to make my business more "modern."

It's a weird idea, but here goes...

What if I just gave away some of my digital stuff for free?
 
I mean, I've got tons of it. And let's face it... we all need a little bit of escapism right now.

Now, sure, sure... I want your support. After all, I've got employees to pay (I honestly couldn't gaf about my own paycheck, but the wife likes paying the mortgage), and I really like these folks I've got working here. So if you want to support us, that would be great. I'm going to be writing no matter what.

Anyways, where was I?

Ah yeah. FREE stuff.

Today, I've decided to release SHRINE OF THE EMPEROR OF BONES as a free module. You can get the print version on here. It's very pretty and printed in the US.

You'll need to access it via my Patreon. If you're not already a Patron, no worries—no sign-up is required.

Anyway, this is my way of giving back. I'm pretty exhausted from all the song and dance and marketing nonsense. 

(Yes, I know this is a form of marketing called "Permission Marketing", but cut me some slack, pal.)

Enough ranting. Here's the link:

Thanks again!
