Hi Mark Diaz Truman.

Hi Mark Diaz Truman.

Hi Mark Diaz Truman. I have bought the game after the kickstarter campaign trought backerkit. I bought a hardcover copy of the game ($50). I’m not sure if I should be waiting for the game to arrive or not. Are you delivering the hardcover copies now? For everyone or just for kickstarter backers? I’m from outside US and typically ,the shippments take 2 to 3 weeks to arrive.

That magical moment when you come home from work after a 12 hours work day and finding that I just received Urban Shadows. My group is well prepared for the dark, full of shadows future, José Muñoz, Mara Aguilar Rodríguez, Alex Werden, be prepared.

Oscar Iglesias, I don’t know if you received yours yet, but it shouldn’t last long.    

Mark Diaz Truman, Andrew Medeiros and all the team behind Magpie Games, it has been a long journey, but it deserved the wait. Awesome, simply awesome. 

Just got my book and dice!  They look amazing!

Been a while since I’ve been this excited about getting my credit card charged!

So it sounds like physical copies are rolling out around GenCon and presumably PDF copies soonish?  Can hardly wait!

Hi Andrew- looking at backer-kit- there seems to be no way to remove dice from physical pledges?

Hi Andrew- looking at backer-kit- there seems to be no way to remove dice from physical pledges? I dont want the dice (I only use Casino quality anyway) and they have caused huge customs charges in the past when included by books and turn a duty free ‘book’ into a duty collectible ‘game’

Latest update for Urban Shadows was just sent out to our backers.

Hey, we just finished our first session of Urban Shadows.

Hey, we just finished our first session of Urban Shadows.

Hey, we just finished our first session of Urban Shadows. All in all, we had a lot of fun with the system and really enjoyed how things went. That said, we had some questions and comments:

-We felt the Wizard’s intimacy’s move was a little weird and didn’t get what was it was trying emulate. We also felt it was a little hostile in comparison to the other intimacy moves, but that might be intentional. 

-Maybe this is because we didn’t have exact text on how debts work, but we curious how you honor a debt.

-For the session intro move, it could be clearer that the person you choose tells you what faction to mark.

-We were a little curious how spectres work when it comes to harm. Like, can they get hurt when they can’t touch stuff?

These were just the things we picked up on during the game. Overall, the session was really fun and we liked the overall system.
