live "Flee, Mortals!" - The MCDM Monster Book for 5e

[Guyra]

MCDM is making a monster book, and it looks awesome! I've backed MCDM's other two books, and think they make top quality stuff, so backing this one was a given for me.

This book is sort of reinventing a lot of classic creatures, making them much more fun to play and fight! It also has brand new creatures. There is a preview PDF linked to on the KS page.

 

 

This KS went live yesterday, and it's already funded($600k) and well beyond its first stretch goal of $800k, which adds Rival Adventurers to the book! The next stretch goal is at $1m, and will add Lairs & Hoards to the book - or it might potentially become its own separate book! (Similar to Kobold Press' "Lairs" supplement to their "Tome of Beasts" series of books, I guess.)

 

There's going to be a single mini available for this KS, and it's the creature from the cover art:

Just passed $1 million! The Lairs stretch goal has been reached! 😄

I like their stuff, but the price is a bit steep for me. $50 for a book is already getting rough for me on normal D&D books.

That's understandable. I wouldn't normally pay this much for a book, myself. :)
