I started writing Minutes to Midnight when I was still involved in International Relations and now my friends are calling me a prophet. Considering the current situation, it is a dubious honour. On the upside, I think spy thriller are pretty timeless and this gives you a pretty good engine for that kind of story. ;)
I'm planning a campaign ticking all the boxes that move the Soviet Union towards a more democratic and positive place. I think I'm looking for some kind of catharsis playing in a fantasy world where Russia didn't end up that bad... I'll let you know how it pans out.
On an other note I will be keeping a campaign log online for my players, do I have the permission of hosting a translation of the playbook there?
As long as the translation is not in Italian, there should be no issue. Feel free to host it! That sounds like a very exciting campaign, curious how it develops. By the way, in the comment thread below you can find a first draft for a digital character keeper. The creator and I are currently fixing a few things to officially add it to the game, which should be done at the end of next week. Might make your life a bit easier if you plan on playing online.
The game looks amazing, both graphics-wise and for the mechanics.
I work with an Italian publishing house. Would you maybe be interested in getting the game translated? If so, you can reach me at c . locatelli 93 (at) gmail.com

This is beautifully and thoughtfully written by the author and the design fits so well.
Wondering how well this could be adapted to a WWII neutral country
Is it possible to buy a copy for a friend? How can i ?
There is a "buy this game as a gift" checkbox you use once you click the "buy now" button (right above the payment options).
Any chance of getting at least a print-on-demand version of this? It looks fantastic, but I like to have a printed version.
Would also be interested in POD!
Also would love a POD version. Seems like a beautifully made product.
this game did not age well

I put this together. Feel free to use it however you'd like.
This is great! Do you have a contact adress? I would like to add it to the game description and credit you.
Sure! how do I DM on this thing?
I couldn't figure it out. Feel free to message me at https://twitter.com/Oli_writes or rpg.m2m@gmail.com
Are you guys going to do a Kickstarter?
Nothing planned at the moment.
This is the game I've been looking for my entire life! I was intrigued with Blades in the Dark, but it wasn't quite right. But this is it!
