Thanks.

Thanks, I appreciate it. It’s a little like sharing my GM notes, so I was a little worried, but so far people like these weirdos.

Yes. page 23 has an example, an actual sheet is here. It’s bundled with the documents from the Itch page, but maybe I should also throw it on the end of the book?

Indeed there are free web-based rollers, a discord-bot, a free app, and even a free 1st party Fantasy Flight app. Still get a lot of eyerolling at the dice.

Blades is incredibly slick in it’s design. I think it’s the best example of modern design where the mechanics and lore lean on each other. Because of the way many of the setting decisions are designed in subtle clever ways to add to the play, it makes me intimidated to run it, because I’m worried I’m going to get it wrong and weaken my game. I would have to do a lot of studying and run it a few more times before I felt I was really getting it.

Sure. I’m still trying to get the lay of the land over here. In my defense, I’m not selling anything and would really like to talk about lore in rulebooks.

That’s a neat example. I bounced off of teaching myself fate from the big book because it didn’t seem worth the trouble, I guess I should have looked at the little one.
