  1. Privilege: This word calls to mind the #Oxventure #BladesInTheDark campaign. I listened to in preparation for running a #Genesys game set in Doskvol. One of their PCs is Barnaby Fortescue III, a charismatic fellow (playbook: Slide) from a wealthy family whose upbringing makes him completely out of touch with the struggles of the rest of his crew. Differences in the socio-economic background of PCs can make for interesting roleplaying conflicts.

  3. The heists and criminal lifestyle of characters in _Blades in the Dark_ accumulate (mechanically) an ever-growing **burden** of trauma, debts, enemies, and consequences. The question is often “how much can you carry before you break?” The game inspired a Creative Commons SRD (“Forged in the Dark”) which powers a diversity of other games (itch.io/c/1712796/forged-in-th).

  5. @b4ux1t3 my copy of Blades ‘68 is in the mail, but in the meantime I’ve been browsing a bit through the pdf, and man is it a fun imaging of the #BitD future. One of these days I’m going to have to find people to play one of these with - right now I mostly just collect and read a few different TTRPGs.

  7. Did some more tweaking this afternoon. Now have a _really_ clean trace from inkscape. The SVG is still rough around t eh edges (literally), but here's the PNG!

    I intend to render the vector down to normal paths instead of the. . .whatever it is inkscape does to do the tracing. Looking forward to figuring that out. Here's to not having to draw it all by hand!

  9. A few hours of tweaking in everyone's favorite terribly-named open source project, and I have a nice PNG background for my players in #BitD on Owlbear Rodeo.

    I've been a Foundry guy for a while now, I _always_ prefer self hosting, but figured I wanetd to try having a "persistent world" BitD campaign with wifey and some friends, and getting foundry set up safely for that is. . .eh, nightmarish.

    It feels good to get into the guts of an image processing pipeline again.

  13. Loïc Mougeolle, son co-fondateur, nous raconte comment. Sur le mythe du #ChatGPT militaire, les leçons du terrain ukrainien, pourquoi copier #Palantir serait une erreur fatale, la place de @MistralAI dans une architecture de défense souveraine, le niveau d'investissement nécessaire pour que la #BITD européenne ne décroche pas face aux Américains, et une levée de fonds conséquente qui sera annoncée dans quelques jours à #Eurosatory.

  15. 🇫🇷🇮🇩 Belle semaine pour l'industrie française !

    L'entrée en service des six premiers #Rafale dans la force aérienne indonésienne rappelle, s'il en était besoin, que notre #BITD est au sommet.

    @Dassault_OnAir bien sûr, mais aussi @mbdagroup, @Safran, @thalesgroup et tous leurs sous-traitants. C'est tout un écosystème industriel qui performe et qui s'exporte.

  16. Ensemble, ils dressent un tableau sans concession de la guerre économique et industrielle que subit laFrance. Un millier d'alertes d'ingérences économiques en 2023, soit trois fois plus qu'en 2020. 80 % des attaques contre la #BITD visent les sous-traitants. Et pendant ce temps, 60 à 80 % des communications de nos adversaires transitent par des messageries que nos services ne peuvent pas intercepter.

    La menace est là, documentée, chiffrée.

  21. i must say, the Friends and Rivals system in Blades in the Dark and inspired systems is so useful for a GM, especially if you then let the players tweak each NPC to make them more personal. it's a great way to create recurring characters other than the various factions.

  23. Ran a Blades in the Dark game in place of the usual GM, today! The crew unknowingly crashed an ambush of the Reconciled against a member of the City Council while trying to take control of a lightning tower.
    They decided to help the Reconciled and things almost went south when their target used a special spirit bottle, grafted into their chest, to trap the ghost trying to possess them.
    It took harm and a new trauma but they gained both control of the tower and new ghost allies!

  25. Wrapped my first true-blue Blades campaign last night, after about 8 or 9 sessions. Enough time to get to get to Tier 1 and gain some serious territory, but I want to play more 🥺

  27. I've been enjoying the Deep Cuts sheets for months, but man, I really did not appreciate how much had changed from the original Blades until I looked at them side-by-side. What an impressive redesign!

  29. 🔥 New Delhi sort le chéquier XXL : feu vert pour 114 #Rafale !

    Quand la France vend du Rafale, c’est la preuve, noir sur blanc, qu’on sait encore faire du très haut niveau.

    C’est de la puissance industrielle, de la souveraineté, et des années de boulot.

    Bravo aux équipes de #Dassault Aviation, bravo aux fournisseurs, bravo la #BITD.

  30. pression logistique).

    Le cœur du livre, très concret, c’est une idée de management : apprendre à se mettre à jour sans casser la machine.

    Pour la #BITD, le message est celui-ci : l’innovation n’est pas un service, c’est une mécanique d’exécution.

    Ça passe par trois obsessions simples :
    1/ La disponibilité d’abord : au bout du compte, la question est simple, "qu’est-ce qui est réellement opérationnel demain ?"

  31. Beaucoup l’espèrent...

    Force à notre #BITD.

    Oui, c’est beau l’industrie en France quand elle conçoit, quand elle fabrique, quand elle livre.

  32. Au fond, la question est simple :veut-on une cadence politique ou une capacité industrielle ? Parce que pendant qu’on discute, d’autres livrent et dans ce marché, le temps long n’est plus un confort, c’est une vulnérabilité.

    Et c’est bien là le point : on ne fait pas une montée en cadence avec un mot d’ordre. On la fait avec des machines, du cash, des bras… et du temps. #BITD

  33. 🇰🇷🇳🇴 @HanwhaEurope ancre un peu plus la Corée du Sud dans la #BITD européenne : contrat d’environ 922 M$ signé avec la Norvège pour livrer 16 lance-roquettes #Chunmoo à la @Forsvaret_no, missiles guidés et soutien logistique inclus.

  34. @evilhat spin Blades in the Dark forward a century into the Bluetime, where plasmovisions glow in every home and the authorities insist everything's groovy. You nod politely. You have other plans. On Backerkit soon. #BitD #TTRPG l.d20.ninja/X8sUez

  36. 🚨 Bercy a validé la vente de LMB Aerospace à l’américain Loar Group, en passant outre l’avis de la DGA... et sans entrée de Bpifrance au capital.

    À ce rythme, la #BITD devient une variable d’ajustement !

  37. Been loving playing Blades in the Dark as run by someone who *loves* running Blades in the Dark. Extremely different from all my previous experiences, in which the system never sang because we didn't commit to it — Blades is the sort of game where taking a cog out makes the whole machine collapse

  38. @niq i know you already ordered the books but I would nonetheless recommend a different system than DnD. Maybe take a look at Legend in the Mist, Blades in the Dark, CBR+PNK, Bump in the Dark or something like Outgunned. There are so much more and better Systems out there that are perfect for new people without locking them into the Hasbro/WotC World.
