Vote on future release changes

Hello fellow trappers! There are a few things we wanted to discuss today. The first is the model quality for the spiny throntail and the toad king. It seems that ZBrush (the program our sculptors use) changes one of their features in their most recent update that effects how we cut our models. Long story short it caused models to go out that weren't up to our standard of quality. Luckily these will be getting fixed and updated models will get sent out with an a much higher level of detail. We apologize for delivering a subpar model and we will make sure everyone who originally received those models will get updated versions. Additionally the dragon for next month will be a little late while we get it taken care of. 

In other news we want to make sure we are creating releases that give you models you can use and enjoy. Currently there are 4 trappers and one with a mount. We can keep it that way or here is a proposed alternative. Still have four trappers but instead of a mount just have another large size monster added to the mix. The reason for the change would be that currently the mount has to be something rideable while if we nixed the mount idea we could make it into any type of creature that is large size. We could reserve the mount for stretch goal characters perhaps. let us know below.

I agree that mounts are more valuable than plain monsters but pack animals, siege-armoured animals, and the like are all also interesting ideas

Gregory Morris

If not a mount, I would like a pack animal. I really like the tacked animal aspect of Dragon Trappers.

I want monster corpses!!!

Mike Bolin

That’s a good idea

I like Lunacy’s idea. Mount when it fits the theme, large creature when it doesn’t. I also wouldn’t be opposed to pack animals/creatures every now and then.

Jason Holloway

the mount is my favorite part of your releases, please don't replace it.

DarthUrsus

The mounts are what drew me in. So unique to other accounts.

maybe do it so every other month is mount or monster

That’s doable.

The Dragon Trappers Lodge

All the mounts have riders :)

The Dragon Trappers Lodge

Why does it have to be one or the other? I like the mount option and I don't think you should get rid of it. But that being said I wouldn't complain if you did the occasional monster instead. I voted for the mount but it is not a strong vote just that I slightly favor the mount option.

Eric Jackson

I wouldn't mind a monster every once in awhile, especially if you come up with a particularly creative one that fits theme but just can't be worked into being a mount! But mounts are definitely like the most unique part about you guys. And if peoplw have trouble using them in dnd they arent being creative enough haha

James Constantino

Good to know. thats why we asked first.

The Dragon Trappers Lodge

The mount is one of those things that defines your releases. Just another monster makes it more like the others. Same with the stretch goal polls which steer towards generic monsters. Sure it’s more usable for the dnd only audience, but it also waters down your uniqueness

Jeffrey Ernst

always keep the mount! its my favorite part of this patreon!
