Blades in the Dark has reached the land of the midnight sun!(Yellowknife NT) Thought I would show off the end papers rather then the awesome cover. This is a quality book! Postal packaging was great also, I’m always happy with service from Starlit.

I finally had the chance to watch the first 3 seasons of Peaky Blinders.

I finally had the chance to watch the first 3 seasons of Peaky Blinders. (I won’t be spoiling anything significant, so you’re free to read this regardless of whether you’ve seen it or not.)

Season 1 is, for me, a near perfect example of a low tier Blades game. The interfaction fighting, the scheming, the things that were planned in flashbacks; it nailed it. And it’s a hugely enjoyable show to boot. I consider it almost mandatory viewing for someome wanting to get in to Blades.

Unfortunately, seasons 2 and even more so season 3 take huge steps forward in terms of tier and the show was both less enjoyable for me personally and felt less like Blades (though admittedly, I’ve only played low tier stuff so far).

Still, it has some great moments; trauma, infighting, loss and gain of turf, double agents, etc.

What did other people think? Again, try to keep it spoiler free for those who would like to see it fresh, but the comments section may contain spoilers, so if you’re worried, go watch the show first.
