The Future of Archvillain Games
Hello all!
We are so thankful for your support over the years and very excited to announce our plans for the future!
We launched in November 2019 with a dream (and can you believe it's been 3 years already?!). You’ve helped us make that a reality, month by month and we cannot thank you enough!
But we knew we could offer you more than just a monthly collection of models with a cohesive theme...
What we’ve accomplished so far:
In January 2020, we released our first 5e module with Mistresses of Despair, and look how far we’ve come with your help! We’ve now released 33 modules! We’ve even revamped older modules with new covers and now have fully illustrated covers!
And while we’ve always brought the most detailed and unique models in the market, we continually strive to up the ante. Just look at what's coming out next month!
In July 2021, we introduced the Archvillain Society, which now has 16 volumes with 48 character models! These three are coming out next month with Moondance: Gate to Argantos:
In June 2022, we introduced Relics, our first venture into life-size props! Here's a look at the life-size Moonmask coming out next month for Fantasy and Omniversal subscribers:
The retail price of what you get each month has grown from $60 to $85 for Villains and from $60 to $97 for Archvillains since we launched at no additional cost to you, the subscriber!
Changes to subscriptions:
Current subscribers can stick with where they are with no worries and no change in price!
We’ll be adding a new “Sci-fi Villain” tier along with an “Omniversal Archvillain” tier.
The Omniversal tier gets everything we release monthly! Yowzers!
The new tiers go live on November the 1st!
Here’s a matrix to show a clear breakdown of what tiers get what rewards and how much they save versus retail:
What the future holds for you, our subscribers:
We’re launching an entirely new line of sci-fi models for all you sci-fi gamers out there!
And you may have seen us mention Battlerune™, but for those who may have missed it, we’re finally ready to bring our own skirmish wargame to your tabletop!
Every month we’ll be releasing the Battlerune™ unit stats, meaning every month you’ll have access to a new army to play in both fantasy and sci-fi and new units to augment your current skirmish teams!
We’re also introducing some new Patron Subscriber goals.
Patron Subscriber Goals:
8,000 Patrons = Loyalty Rewards for Sci-fi
8,500 Patrons = Relics for Sci-fi
9,000 Patrons = Archvillain Society for Sci-fi
We want to be transparent so you, the subscriber, can decide what’s best for you.
We hope this helps clarify our path moving forward and gets you as excited as we are for the things to come!
Happy printing,
The Archvillain Games Team

new tiers...new tiers...new tiers...are they live?
Will you make a post when the new tiers are live?
How do I upgrade my subscription to omniversal? Should I cancel this month to get it next month if I want to avoid paying both subscriptions next month?
Keep your current subscription, and when the new tier launches on Nov 1, simply upgrade. It will only charge you the difference and you'll gain immediate access.
Looking forward to it. Personally I'll switch to the new tier Just two questions: - Are there any future plans for your fantasy themes? They are and probably will be always my favorite subscription. :) - Will you count your patreon and tribes supporters together for your next steps? Keep up the great work.
Hey Narses! There are plans that we will be revealing soon! As for the Patreon goals, only subscribers on the Patreon platform count towards them.
The Omni tier doesnt look to be available yet is it live on November 1st? or before?
Hey Andy! The new tiers come out on November the 1st!
Well I'll be upgrading to that Omni level. From the examples you've got up for next month, its going to be an amazing set.
Great to see my favorite villains grow. However, the road map is quite villainous toward the earliest joiners (yes, I have a mercantile interest). The upgrade path forces us to lose the early joiner advantage.
Will this offer be available on MMF Tribes and which is financially better for you Patreon or MMF? I beleive MMF is a bit better for me only because I don't need to download anything, itself populates in my library which is a massive time saver for me.
I'm curious about this as well. I'd like to support the team wherever it benefits them the most.
Can i switch from fantasy av to omni at the start of November,?
Absolutely!
The only thing that I would change is having the sci-fi stuff in Starfinder system, not 5e. Other than that? this is amazing and I'm totally onboard. Archvillain is #1 in quality so still a no brainer.
Greetings, We do not currently have any plans to offer 5e content for our SciFi line. We will be offering stats for our own game coming out in November - Battlerune.
are there going to be limited number of the Omni tiers?
The Omniversal Archvillain Tier will not be limited.
Interesting, loving the figures so far, absolutely amazing. Looks like it works out cheapest to go full Ommi if one wants SciFi and Fantasy, but I have yet to see what you are offering in the SciFi tier. One preview does not a patreon make. Holding fire on that, but if I do sign up then it will have to be Omni.
I am ready for the new changes. Well worth everything being done
I’m super hyped here. I have been hoping for sci-fi from you guys since I started as a subscriber with the first Empire of sands. I’m not going anywhere that’s for sure
How will this interact with your Sci-Fi Patreon page? Should I just get the Omniversal here or will there still be a reason to be a patron on both pages?
We are preparing an announcement over at the SciFi Patreon page but the gist is that most subscribers asked for both sets of content to be hosted on one Patreon page so Omniversal Archvillain right here on this page will be the way to go!
Super stoked! I’m not usually a fan of sci-fi but your preview models are just as unique and interesting as your fantasy models. Might be going omni!
If I upgrade to Omniversal, will my prior time at the Archvillain tier count towards loyalty rewards?
Yes, it will!
Any plans for commercial licenses? I’d love to get access to that!
Greetings Nicola, We will be making some announcements concerning commercial licenses next month. Stay tuned!
This is amazing
How soon can I upgrade to the Omniverse?
Hey Adam! The new tiers come out on November the 1st!
WOW! The next month is looking INSANE! Can't wait for full reveal! guess i'll also be swapping from fantasy to omniversal and some sci-fi after over a year of fantasy sub!
