Sean Nittner – if Alliance has left-over books in this initial shipping, would it be possible to purchase extras? I ask because a couple of my player’s said they were going to purchase books, but ended up not due to finances at the time – and I would happily purchase books for them if they are available.

How could you not use this in your blades game?!

I’m buying a couple 🙂

Quel cachotier ce Guillaume Tavernier, il ne nous dit pas ici sur G+ qu’il a lancé une campagne de foulancement pour un artbook avec ses superbes plans. 16€ (+4 à 6€ de frais de port) pour l’artbook et le pdf, 8€ pour le pdf seul, avec au moins 64 pages / 32 plans. (Là maintenant on en est à 36 plans + 1 donjon sur 2 niveaux.)

(Petite demande personnelle : dis, Mr Tavernier, par rapport au proto, tu retirerais pas le cadre pour donner encore plus d’ampleur au plan ? Parce que moi c’est vraiment lui qui m’intéresse.)

Question for those of you creating your own content: How are you making your play / crew books?

Question for those of you creating your own content: How are you making your play / crew books? Is there an InDesign template that is available? Or, something else? Thanks in advance!

Hmm, my copy of Blades seems to be misprinted.

Hmm, my copy of Blades seems to be misprinted. It goes from page 184 directly to page 217. Anyone else receive a copy like this?

So, I was sharing in the Blades of the Emperor thread regarding my last two sessions of BitD and how my players were just killing me. They chose assassins for their crew and honestly bungled their first two jobs just to not listening.

Partly they want me to produce targets constantly but then veto one after the other because it may cause complications with other factions. I mean, they are wanting to play so nice that it’s practically making the crew, and story, impotent. It also feels like they expect more drive from my end. I figure if I have say Lampblacks cornering them in street because they’ve made themselves appear weak as a faction that I’m betraying the BitD GM/player trust.

It’s keeping their in game stress low but it’s surely raising my real life stress.

I can see stories like this making it into papers in Doskvol, except that many of the outlandish supernatural ones…

I can see stories like this making it into papers in Doskvol, except that many of the outlandish supernatural ones would turn out to be real (bitten by a skeleton indeed)!

I see many, many grim adventure hooks here, from a real life newspaper from the late 1800’s up to 1939.

Nobodies of Doskvol: Callum Torborn, no. 8 of 2.

Nobodies of Doskvol: Callum Torborn, no. 8 of 2.

I think of Callum as becoming like Frank Sobotka from S2 of The Wire. Maybe a little larcenous, mostly loyal and valiant. Nonetheless getting increasingly dirty as he tries to make a place for his distrusted ethnic enclave amongst the shipyards and docks of an unbelievably corrupt city. Some Vigilantes might hang him from a lightpost as a warning, but maybe he’s as good as it gets in Doskvol.

Blades of the Inquisition, final version.

EMPEROR PROTECT!!!

We did it! Here is the finished document with the rules modifications, crew sheet, and playbooks. Anything that is not included here works exactly as in standard Blades in the Dark. Except retirement. Duty is eternal, so you either die an Acolyte, or become the Enemy. Have fun!

You can adapt this to both Askellon and Calixis (or to a Sector of your own design). Hopefully someone will make good use of this! Annnd I’m also done spamming about it 😛

If you guys have question, ask them down here 😀

Also, if I ever add or change something, I will probably put updates in the comments section of this post.

Now go out there and purge some heretics!

Question: What’s the font?

Hi, is the font that’s used for headlines in the book publicly available? If not, do you know any alternatives?
