Looks very interesting in concept and setting. Text over art never works out. I'm going to give it a look - thanks for reviewing

[@WillyMuffinUK]

I hope you enjoy it! It's really nice seeing indy publishers going for high concepts.

[@artvandelay8830]

It looks awesome. The art is as evocative as the setting. Rick Priestley is one of my favorite game designers. I'm in!

[@WillyMuffinUK]

Bear in mind that it's the skirmish game, not the RPG, that Priestley helped author! But I do love the art. It really does help to capture the feel of the game.

[@artvandelay8830]

@@WillyMuffinUK yeah, thanks. I think Im going to get both. xD

Rhye would work well!

@@WillyMuffinUK True, that's also an old favorite of mine. Seriously, we need more fairy-themed rock operas.

Sorry for the totally unrelated request, but something I'd enjoy very much would be game prep: there is very little of that on youtube, and I think watching an experienced GM prepping a session (even more so analyzing after what went right and wrong, and doing several sessions like that) is the best way to learn, and would be a lot of fun. Thanks for all the videos!

[@WillyMuffinUK]

Now, that is a good and useful idea. I'll see what I can come up with!

[@Sylentmana]

The art is lovely

[@WillyMuffinUK]

It is gorgeous.

[@stephenclements6158]

Sounds like a cool game.

[@WillyMuffinUK]

It is 🙂

>review copy That's how you know you've made it

[@WillyMuffinUK]

Heh - maybe. Came out of the blue, but if I can do my small part in helping indy publishers get out there with their good games, I'm happy.

[@tinyelvenmitten1774]

The concept seems intersting, but I am very unnerved by the amount and quality of the art, it gives me very strong AI vibes :(

[@WillyMuffinUK]

I can't answer to that. For me, that it is stylistically consistent and not replete with the usual oddities would suggest otherwise - but I am far from an art expert.

I like dice pool systems - but not with this many dice.

How do you get on with Vampire?
