Yeah, I’ve been playing this too much for the last few days. The thing is, though: I WOULD PREFER A TABLETOP VERSION SO MUCH MORE.

How ‘Card Thief’ Developers Created Tension in the Game – If you like reading about game design or just really liked the excellent Card Thief [$1.99], you’ll be happy to know that Arnold Rauers, of Tinytouchtales, wrote a great blog post about creating tension in Card Thief. The game is all about a thief sneaking into a castle and stealing all kinds of items, so the developers wanted to create a high-tension experience to evoke the feeling of trying to sneak in and out of a highly guarded p…

Hmm shipping notice from starlit citadel? Soon…. soon….

EDIT: Seems I’ve hyped this prematurely. Read the comments, seems it’s a bit crap.

This game seems to be relevant to Blades. 🙂

Looks like a ~~delicious~~ stew of Banner Saga, Gunpoint, maybe Mark of the Ninja.

My setup – dice, pens, gang business cards, reminders (the green cards) and coin. All served in my imperial dice tray

Campaign Website

Hey Guys, I made a website for my campaign:

http://lostcolonies.manuel-huber.de/#/

It’s supposed to be a small wiki-like page for my players. It’s designed with mobile devices in mind and the content (in German) is my homebrew world (Mix of BitD & WH40K).

You can open the menu by clicking the top bar.

The player page (“Spieler”) has an entry for every player which contains their current character. The achievements (image+title) are clickable to reveal the description.

The faction page (“Fraktionen”) has all of the gangs (the campaign is brand new so there are only a few), their business card and a brief description.

The world pages (“World”) are for general info (“Allgemein”) and for the city Ebrichsburg. There are interactive maps with points of interest for districts (so far there’s only 1 district named “Hasard”)

I’d love your feedback! Design, Bugs, features you’d like – If you speak German you can comment on the content too 😀

If you want, here’s the code: https://github.com/manuelhuber/LostColonies

In case anybody is interested about anything at all, message me 🙂

Conspiracy theory after reading the testimonial at page 160: the powers that be let such a powerful criminal element in Doskvol to keep the underground tunnels and canals flowing with death and misery to attract leviathans to the city and keep the blood trade running.

Conspiracy theory 2: after the Unity War the leviathans started migrating to Skovlan.

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.

I’ve got a game of Blades coming up Saturday, and I’ve been worrying that maybe I was too proud — flew too close to the broken sun — and I wouldn’t have my dear darling book by then.

No reason to worry! It was waiting for me at home! It’s awesome, feels great, love the gloss on the knives, and besides a little print error-y looking line it’s as gorgeous as could be. Time to crack it open and finish my prep!
