First 36 hours - A Success with Excellent Effect
Hey friends,
Thanks to over 1900 of you, the first 36 hours of the campaign for Blades in the Dark: Deep Cuts was a resounding success! This project funded in just 68 minute...
Thank you so much for supporting Blades in the Dark: Deep Cuts! Nearly 5,000 of you helped bring this project to life and the BackerTrain kept us rolling into overtime for almost two hours!
The next couple weeks will be fairly quiet in terms of updates. BackerKit needs to collect and distribute your funds to us. John is in the process of making some final revisions to the text and we'll be working to get the limited edition rewards designed and laid out.
We'll keep you apprised as we hit milestones, but for the near future we'll be busy working behind the scenes. We take pride in delivering our crowdfunder rewards ahead of schedule and we're going to make every effort to do that here.
Finally, if you have an issue with your pledge, your payment, or anything else you need our customer service team to tackle, please email us at [email protected]. We do our best to monitor the comments here, but emailing us directly is the most efficient way to get eyes on your issue.
On behalf of the whole team, once again: thank you again for being part of this project! Blades in the Dark has left an indelible imprint on how people play and design TTRPGs. Your support for this new expansion was truly overwhelming. We can't wait to see what you do with the lore and mechanics provided in Deep Cuts.
First up, you've funded all eleven stretch goals!We're frankly a little gobsmacked at the outpouring of support. Thank you!
The final three stretches granted 8.5" x 5.5" sticker sheets to every backer getting physical rewards. We turned our spectacular graphic designer Cris Viana loose on these and we're happy to give you a little preview today:
The goal here is to provide a wide set of icons you can use on... your Red Ledger notebook, Doskvol Map, character sheet, game journal or laptop. We've included clocks, NPC portraits, the iconic Twin Daggers and more. Use them to track Heat, mark a safehouse, or memorialize an encounter with Ulf Ironborn.
All that being said, this is a prototype design so if there's something you think is missing or any other suggestions you might have, let us know in the comments.
Become the Gentleman Scoundrel, a Doskvol rogue who wields a pen as well as they handle a blade. Guided by card draws from the Cutter's Deck along with custom prompts, write a 13-line poem to canonize your crew, reach into the ghost field, intimidate your enemies, and throw a wrench into the gears of oppression.
Designed by Allison Arth, this standalone, solo roleplaying game is a special Blades-themed hack of Gentleman Bandit. It's a writing-focused RPG you can play with a deck of cards, an optional six-sided die, and the writing implements of your choice.
Added to Scurlock's Vault and unlocked for everyone at the $12 level+ when we reach 4000 backers!
We're humbled by the success of this campaign. It's been a wonderful turnout for fans of this groundbreaking game. And it's not over yet.
Thank you again for your support and keep spreading the word!
I know the campaign just ended but is there any chance we could get a nice cover variant to upgrade to for the base Blades in the Dark book as well? One that matches the nice cover for Deep Cuts?
Built specifically for cinematic immersion and theater of the mind gameplay, Alchemy doesn't just offer the traditional features of a VTT but also incorporates animated environments, ambient sound, particle effects and more to enhance the experience. Don't just just view a map, share a scene together.
Backers of this campaign will receive first wave access when the modules for Blades and Deep Cuts drop onto Alchemy later this fall.
Reserve your module today by updating your pledge with these Alchemy add-ons:
We're excited about this partnership and look forward to the results of Alchemy's diligent work on this!
With just 7 days left, we're headed into the final stretch of the campaign. Keep spreading the word and stay tuned. We'll have more updates for you as that clock keeps ticking down!
