Blades '68: Limited Edition

Across the Shattered Isles, it is the Age of Consensus. Superstition has been replaced by the superior values of science, conformity, and consumerism. It is a world at peace.

Or thats what they try to tell you.

Progress is here, but only for some. War may be over, but the shadowy game of espionage has never been more heated. Discontent bubbles under the surface and threatens to erupt at any time in any place. Theyve tried to tell you that the future has arrived and everything is fine now, that its not the time to make a fuss. But you know better. Youre a scoundrel, a chancer, a troublemaker. You know the streets and youre not afraid of danger.

The moment is now, everything youve dreamed of is within reach.

About Blades 68

Working in consultation with John Harper, designer Tim Denee advances the timeline and the technology of Doskvol one hundred years into the future with Blades 68.

This official supplement uses the same core mechanics from Blades in the Dark (which is required to play) but introduces some notable changes to the system. It tweaks the Gameplay Cycle, dividing the action into crew business, the trouble engine, and personal business. Blades 68 expands your character options with keys and deadlocks personality traits you can lean on for XP or cross off when youve succumbed to stress. It adds procedures for Time Skips, claims the crew can pursue, backing factions you can call on for help, and more.

The Limited Edition features an alternate cover, custom endpapers, plus two ribbon bookmarks. Once the print run for this edition sells out, it will not be reprinted. A gorgeous edition of the game that looks striking whether it’s at your table or on your gaming shelf.
