So Savage worlds has “Savage World Fan” and Apocalypse World has “Powered by the Apocalypse”. What are all these add-ons/hacks going to be labelled as? Maybe “Designed with a blade”?
Can’t wait for the Bluecoats hack never mind the other goals which are amazing.

Stabs in the Dark
Backstabs
Unsheathed Blades
João Castro wins! Just need a groovy icon now
What about the subtly different Hacked with/by a Blade?
There is a a precedent with John’s games: Lady Blackbird hacks were sometimes called “hackbird(s)”. That’s why we can call Blades in the Dark hacks something like “hackblade(s)”. ;-P
Sharpened blades?
Nathan Roberts +1 Hacked with a blade
Honed blades.
Stabs. As in taking one.
Designed in the Dark (the worst illustrations in the whole industry).
CUT FROM THE DARK
I like it Matt Horam!
What about Cut from the Dark Cloth?
Speaking of hacks…
I was just watching Penny Dreadful last night, and mate, that’d rock via the BitD system methinks.
Hmmm a classic monsters Team? Or League of Extraordinary Gentlemen? (The Comic, not the shitty film)
Ooooh! Oooooh!
What about: ‘A SWITCHBLADE (production)”
Matt Horam I was thinking “A Dark Cut” 🙂
I like it Stefan Grambart!
Thanks… and fiddling at work today and this happened: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/260198/bladesinTheDark-hacksLogo.png
Noooice!
Too late for
“A Hacksaw Blade in the Dark?”
“A Forged Blade” – when making knives there are two ways, stamped which is cheap and breakable, then there is forged using a single piece of iron that is reinforced and sharpened many times over.
Maybe just a simple “Forged with Blades In The Dark”
I think John Harper may have already given us our answer… “Hacked with a Blade”?
Nothing is official! I just tossed out that phrase somewhere. Don’t canonize me. 🙂
Forged In The Dark Seems elegant, simple… alludes to the Blades part (I liked Chris Willhelm’s description of how they’re made).
And it cites Sauron! ;-P
I’d go with Carved with Blades in the Dark, or maybe Etched with Blades in the Dark.
I am kind of against using the full title since it does flow easy, for example: “power by the apocalypse” vs “power by acopalypse world.” We should pick blade or dark as the key word. That said I really like “Forged in the Dark” right now.
More fiddling around in Photoshop…

Well. Dang, Stefan. That is bad ass.
Is it me, or are those links broken now?
It is my experience that this is a security issue. Note the url is HTTPS. The S is for secure I believe, and indicates that the file is being shared in a certain way that isn’t helpful to people who aren’t also signed up to drop box and maybe friends with the person.
The links are public, they were just broken. Fixed now.
