So I saw a thing by Jeremy over on the Double Fine forums from a few years ago about a computer game he was designing called the Knockover…

This got me thinking about Blades as the premise was the same, just a different setting. But the ‘props’ could be the same!
So I just spent the last few hours making a thing! It’ll get its grand test at Ettin Con, what with Andrew Shields’s Heist cards, Volsung 2d6plusCool’s PC / NPC cards and my own score type cards.
The idea is a visual ‘planning board’ to pin characters, locations and obstacles (with clocks) on.
You drank that much wine in a few hours?
I like it. Cute cork board too – not seen one like that before 🙂
But any chance to have coloured strings on pins and make it look all trope investigation-ey (or in this case nodes for a heist) gets added points for flavour and style.
Yes Matt Horam, I’m verrdy dwunk… Hic.
Nathan Roberts​ so you’re running the 7-10pm session? It conflicts with The Laws of ISAAC, which sounds so cool as well 😂
Scott Maclure I was about to suggest that Isobel might be keen to run two sessions of ISAAC, but I see your dance card is already full! I’ll see you at SOTH.
Soth and Blades have both been on my “to play, someday” list for ages, so I couldn’t pass them up.
