Under the category Hottest Small Press, the Noon edition has moved on to #2.  The Midnight edition for some reason is only up to #11.  Maybe it’s some quirk like people’s .pdf orders are counted more under one than under another, though “midnight” and printable white versions are both given out as .pdf’s.

In the overall listing I think I saw it go as high as #8, correct me if I’m wrong, but this is not unusual for ANYTHING new to surge in sales compared to older offerings.

This is great, it’s like a kind of Billboard top music album thing or Top of the Pops or whatever the sales rating system is in your country.

This may be semantics but the Drone section under armed says “Armed: a weapon can be mounted on the drone.

This may be semantics but the Drone section under armed says “Armed: a weapon can be mounted on the drone. The weapon’s size is determined by the size of the frame.” Does that mean the drone comes with a weapon or the drone has the potential to have a weapon on it?

I just received my soft-cover midnight edition of The Sprawl.  Since apparently not many have received it yet, I though I’d share some photos (sorry for the low quality).

This seems like an appropriate time as any to thank all of you for your support, many of you from very early in the process, and many more through the KS and post-KS development. The knowledge and enthusiasm of this community is a major part of the game’s success.

Thank you all!

Hey everyone I recently ran a game of the Sprawl!

Hey everyone I recently ran a game of the Sprawl!

Hey everyone I recently ran a game of the Sprawl! It was a pretty big success and I only messed up a handful of things so that’s nice. But I’m currently having a problem with the rules so I have two question to ask all of you guys! I can’t seem to find any suggested pay for the players when they finish a job, this especially became a problem when my group decided that: “The job pays well” during the “get the job” move. Is there anywhere in the book where this is mentioned or did I just manage to miss it? My second question is, are you suppose to show the players the corporation clocks during the game or they suppose to be hidden away until they get advanced so far that something is triggered? I’m struggling a little bit with how much I should keep my players in the dark when it comes to the clocks in general and again I can’t seem to find it in the book.

Thanks for the help in advance!

Be careful with your Sprawl PODs from DriveThruRPG.

Be careful with your Sprawl PODs from DriveThruRPG. I ordered the Hardcover Noon and the shipping said it was the Hardcover Midnight. I’ll attach the conversation I had with DTRPG support below. Hamish, you might check with DTRPG about this. It’s possible other folks will have this issue.

Here’s the response from support:

Hello,

We apologize for your inconvenience.

I just checked your order with our printer and, unfortunately, the way the title appears in their system does not specify whether it’s //Noon or //Midnight, it just reads “The Sprawl.” If it turns out that the wrong one actually was sent, please let us know and we will see to it that the correct one is printed and sent out to you. I’m sorry I can’t be of more help with this right now.

I’m hearing great things about The Sprawl but don’t have it / haven’t played it, so I ask in advance: Do you think…

I’m hearing great things about The Sprawl but don’t have it / haven’t played it, so I ask in advance: Do you think it would work well with a Jason Borne meets Vampires spy/action/thriller type game? I’m hoping for a PbtA answer to Night’s Black Agents.

Thanks!

The second round of proofs came in this week and I made them available on Friday. The quality on these latest proofs is the same as the first set (which you might have already seen on Google+ or Facebook), but there are a couple more options. Here’s a…
