Could you add the PDF of the Series and Playbook sheets?

The inheritance/reputation mechanic is hysterical, and everything here is super usable! Good stuff, thank you for it.

Is there any chance you have a blank/template playbook? I've been struck by inspiration for a bonus playbook or two, and that would help out a lot!

This is so cool!

Sorry to point out issues in an older PDF, but I've finally gotten around to reading this one and caught some stuff. It might be useful for others, even if these don't lead to revisions!

• In Whitebeam, the Gowrie Orchards Holding is listed as being ruled by Taran Gearr; Taran Ubhal is actually the lord of House Ubhal, one of the Province's other main Factions.
• In The Narrow Coast, House Gearr is listed as the Ruler of the Province, but aren't actually involved in its write-up anywhere; House Tarbh's rule seems pretty firmly uncontested, which also means the Tier should read III instead of II.
• In Saltcrag, the Rulers of all three Holdings seem to be copy-pasted from the Inland Vale's section, with Fionna Gearr and Odrhan Diomhair listed; these should presumably instead belong to Lord Judoc Lolaire (Salt Mines), Brother Erril (Cyphal Monastery), and Ros of the Feannag Witches (Feannag Hideout) instead. Interestingly, this means the Lesser Lolaire aren't actually in control of Saltcrag as a Province - they only rule 1 out of 3 Holdings!

Thank you so much for such a cool game, I feel silly being so late to it - I backed the Kickstarter for it forever ago!

Reporting a small error: The Domain Sheet has a Calendar section that presents three years (each four sessions, two Sorties in length, like the book describes), but all three years are labeled 247 (rather than presumably progressing to 248 and 249).

Some kind soul on Reddit knocked it out!

EDIT: Also, do you have a current social media site anywhere? This Itch page links to a Twitter that seems to have been hacked by some sort of crypto scam!

Is there any chance you've got all three maps stitched together? I'd love to have that for daydreaming about running some massive grand campaign someday!

Always glad to see your posts! Excited for the new goodies and revisions. 

1) Correct!

2) Vent Hell to the Arcade would be 3d6: 1 by default, plus 1 each for Dock 21 and the Arcade itself.

3) Yes, shortcuts could make the highest Distractions mechanically impossible eventually. 

4) There's no roll/Move needed for a Delivery job unless the Distraction feels like it would necessitate one - otherwise, all you have to do is spend the time segment fulfilling the job. 

Thanks for playing HARDCASE! If you're hungry for more, there's a collection of expansions by myself and others here.

Definitely still super interested in this if you ever find the time.

These are perfect!!

This goes past homage or parody into being something genuinely cool! All of your Locales are killer, but Shadeswamp, Volcantis, Bannersky Port, and Lyre are all especially evocative. Thank you for this one!

A way to have more fun with the site and databases is so fun!!

Seconding the previous comment - this link doesn't actually lead to the playbooks!

Sounds like you thought about that longer than the team with $400,000 ever did. Well done!

Lots to love here just on a first skim, but I especially adore your three suggested Game Tones and the note that play might not stick to one of them all the time - more evocative and gameable than the average safety tool for sure!

working the site itself into your play mechanics is absolutely delightful. i'm so charmed!! this might be my favorite entry in the whole jam <3

Has this game been delisted? I tried to send it to someone who didn't already own it and they couldn't get onto the page.

Man, this is spectacular!

completely enamored with everything here. i want to visit these sites!

thank you! i've gone back and forth on adding more to it (a hospital that sells gross things to fix sickness feels like an obvious Shopping inclusions), but am pretty happy with the current state of things.

don't forget to check out the other game jam submissions! 

I'm afraid I don't currently have any plans for one!

that's AWESOME. thanks for the share, it made my night!

WHOA, I've never heard of anyone doing group play before - that's incredible! 

Was there a GM? Were you all just going about your HCs' separate days that occasionally intersected? I'm fascinated by this.

this is really, really spectacular. i'm glad it's not just me who associates the two! the trading card made me howl.

I didn't get very far writing a game much like this last year - though my aesthetic wrapper was faux-LEGO, rather than Neopets - and am so glad to see it actually exist. Really cool stuff!

it's working!!!

Horrifying! Usable! Versatile! You've made something really clever here, well done <3

wow, what an honor!! i posted my take on the same just now. excited to see yours come along <3

Thank you for all that you did for us!

I should say this in public: a few years ago, I was in a FitD game run by my spouse that had playbooks hacked-together out of parts from various releases. There was a lot of FLESH & METAL in those playbooks, and that campaign absolutely sang.

Thank you for such consistently killer design!

unbelievably sick stuff in this update omfg

I'm very interested. Will check this out soon!

Just want to say that this amount of expansion support for a BOB game is really breathtaking. Thank you for it!

I think I'm going to make a collection of minigames that are basically just roll tables for solo play prompts. I've got two of them sketched out so far, a sort of "what if one of your dailies was about seeing which random faerie mermaid you meet each time?" option inspired by the Healing Springs and a war between two very different lands (medieval fantasy vs lunar sci-fi) that takes a long time to reveal either of its possible endings. While this'll very technically be a HARDCASE supplement if I get it done, it's mostly meant to be a weird little standalone thing.

Tentative title: HUEVOMIGOS WORLD!

Howdy! This is currently categorized as a Book, rather than a Physical Game.

Psst! This is categorized as a Game (Itch's videogames category), rather than the Physical Game it should be. Fixing that will help folks find this in bundles and searches.

Thanks so much!

Is there a specific launch date for the KS?
