Time is running out! Psi*Run is one of my favorite games, especially for introducing new roleplayers to the hobby. Don't miss this one!

Wow! We're $50 shy of $21K! That's awesome! There's 45 hours left, and two more stretch goals: More Money For Artists at $24k, and More Game For Everyone at $28K. Will we get there?? You can help find out! Back, share, and enjoy the run! #PsiRun2e #ttrpg #PBTA www.kickstarter.com/projects/117...

So, part of the joy of publishing is that I got the complete Blades 68 deluxe package this week. It is, soup to nuts, amazing and gorgeous, full of small, lovely details that I could geek out about at length. But the thing that is really, really moving my needle is the *map*.

Hello friends. Wanted to give a quick update. I haven't been active here for a while, because my health took a very unexpected steep turn for the worse, culminating in surgery and a long-term hospital stay. Thanks to the amazing healthcare pros that took care of me, I'm going to be ok, eventually.

If you are exctied by Blades 68 from @evilhat.bsky.social and @olddog.games then you should check out the source from @johnharper.bsky.social. I got the chance to play it a good long while after I started running it and wrote up my thoughts from the player side of the table. buff.ly/Dj59TXr

Blades in the Dark - Player's Review - The Giant Brain

I revisit Blades in the Dark. This time instead of running the game I've had a chance to play the game and wanted to offer some new thoughts.

Only 67 book backers until everyone gets More Art in the form of a new map in the book! Corey's maps a very cool, and I am excited to see what he makes. Looking ahead, if we hit 24K in the next 8 days, I get to give all three artists a bonus, which would ROCK! www.kickstarter.com/projects/117...

I love this for them. A reminder that NPI currently stands as one of the few — if not only — boardgame channels not doing sponcon of any type AND no longer taking review copies. The former should be standard. The latter is above & beyond.

Real talk. We did not expect this but people are showing up. We are 1/3rd away from realistically affording studio space. If we can keep that momentum - it is actually realistic we can get there. THANK YOU!

The collection of stretch goal material for Blades '68 grew so large that it has exploded from the Palace Dossier into THE BLUE FILES. It's almost 60 pieces, from an amazing array of contributors.

Cover for "The BLUE Files", a collection of additional material for Blades '68. Shows a yellow car sailing through the air above a bridge, with a multi-coloured explosion behind it. In the background is a city skyline, and a blue sky with radiating circles.

fyi DTRPG has waived their usual fees, so 98% of your purchase goes directly to Rae via this bundle. If for whatever reason you don't want to use that service, Rae also has an itch page at temporalhiccup.itch.io or you could consider his (somewhat dormant) patreon www.patreon.com/swordqueenga...
