We're creating a line of flat plastic miniatures, similar in scope to the pathfinder cardboard pawns - they're cheaper miniatures that can supplement your normal miniatures, and even work alongside cardboard pawns, but they're printed (double sided) on clear plastic.

Here are Prototypes

Here's our sketchbook with some really cool unfinished stuff

A pinterest collection of all our completed pieces

And our patreon page if you're interested in supporting us to create new art

A kickstarter will come in time, but we need to lock on a good plastic supplier and make final prototypes that were comfortable with. In the mean time, we appreciate all the support we can get making the new art, almost all of which goes to the artist herself so she can continue working during this transition period.

We expect to release between 4 and 13 "themes" with 62 pieces each, with an entire theme pack costing $20 (domestic shipping included), with a "you get everything" pledge of $100 (which could net you upwards of 800 miniatures with stretch goal unlocks of different themes, bringing your total per piece down below $0.13 cents each, cheaper than cardboard pawns) we'll also be making unique art for every piece, with a set or two of "horde monsters" in each theme, 4-6 of the same basic type of monster (say, 6 zombies) but each being distinctly different so you can tell which monster is which at a glance.

Any and all contributions on our patreon will be credited toward the KS, plus net you extra benefits such as digital copies of the tokens asap and first-production runs of the miniatures themselves.

This is my story:

When I was a brand spanking new DM, I didn't know what to do. So I made the SIMPLEST campaign I could possibly imagine.

Bandits grab a townsperson and retreat to a fort.

Players, you can (just a mild suggestion) go save said person. But do WHATEVER YOU WANT.

Go. That's all I bothered doing, because I was new, and I wanted to learn 'off the cuff' gming. My players actually debated, because the rogue didn't wanna get killed, and ended up CLIMBING into a tree, and literally abandoning the party / campaign.

It was HILLARIOUS, the rest of the party went and had a hell of a time infiltrating and fighting in the fort. The rogue eventually saw fire and said "okay, at this point I'll go and see if I can help..." he was about 1/4 mile away in the tree.

At the end of the day, it was one of the best experiences in DnD I've ever had in my life. The players felt completely free, and if they "ruined my campaign" it was okay, because I was new, there was nothing to ruin since I didn't invest much into the story and was ready to adjust, and the players did the work to make it fun.

Do NOT complicate things on your first run. Don't get a module, don't make a complex story, don't give yourself more things to juggle. Just get comfortable first.
