My interest is in using more recent and capable arm boards which 
can handle D.

What can I do and not do currently with LDC?

What advice can you give me (if I'm missing something)?

Haven't really tried it but will in some weeks. As far as I know LDC works for compiling code for STM32 microcontrollers, however coding for them is a lot more complicated than using Arduinos, because you need to go low level (or use things like stm32duino but that doesn't use D and it's not as complete). At least they're cheap and powerful. Look at an STM32F103c8t6 for example.
