Calisco Civil War
Wednesday, January 19th, 2022
I wasn’t planning on putting this Mission Sheet up, for the tenth phase of our Band of Blades campaign, as it deals with the Fort Calisco mission, which isn’t handled like other missions. But here it is anyways, since the sheet was mostly complete (I’ve finished fleshing it out for posting purposes) and you can see how we ran the mission in our campaign. As normal, this post includes some additional notes on meta-game events that affected play.
General information about these sheets and a full archive of previously posted sheets can be found on this page.

If you’ve ever played Red Hook Studio’s Darkest Dungeon video game and thought “I wish this were an RPG” and then thought “Stress and trauma in a gothic shell? That sounds like Blades in the Dark!” then oh boy do I have something for you!

Some other projects and real life issues have created the long delay between posting the last set of Mission Sheets and these, for the ninth phase of our Band of Blades campaign. As usual, this post includes some additional notes on meta-game events that affected play. This phase (and these missions) took place in the Talgon Forest.

Paying Pros
Sunday, September 12th, 2021
There is a lot of outrage, upset, and scoffing recently over the idea that it is OK to pay gamemasters to run games for people. I find these reactions misplaced.
First…are we really complaining about someone using their talents and skill to improve their personal financial conditions if someone is willing to pay them to do so? Is it really anyone else’s business to tell someone else it is wrong for them to make a living providing entertainment to other people?
Yes, traditionally gaming has been a hobby entertainment of friends sitting around a table having a good time. But why is that all it has to be?
