Blades in the Dark: Deep Cuts v1.1 released!


The version 1.1 update for Deep Cuts is now live!

It includes a host of updates and tweaks based on community feedback (thanks, folks!). Here's the complete changelog:

Version 1.1 Changelog

  • Fixed various typos in the book and on the play sheets.
  • Added separate faction status trackers for Nobility and Citizens in each district (on the faction sheet).
  • Added explicit permission for you to print the file for personal use.
  • Clarified the text for Level 1 Harm becoming Level 2.
  • Added a note in Load about heavy items affecting your speed and agility, and modified the Mule special ability to remove that penalty.
  • Corrected the order of the Crew phase in Downtime (Payoff before Fallout).
  • Corrected some of the numbers for Heat from a score. Added a note about bribing an official to reduce Wanted Levels (page 83). Added the option to reduce Heat with the Work activity in Downtime.
  • Rewrote the Scoundrel downtime activities for clarity.
  • Included an option for the Work activity to gain a benefit besides earning Coin.
  • Increased the number of Cohorts needed to advance in Tier.
  • Changed the wording of "get wild" as an overindulgence reaction.
  • Added a note about how to use the Threat Roll so it feels more like an Action Roll if that's your preference (page 97)
  • Added a note in the Threat Roll system changes about how to handle rolling an Action with zero rating when you face multiple threats (page 106).
  • Rewrote Teamwork to make it more clear and flexible.

I've also added the updated sheets as a separate (free) download so players can grab then as needed.

Thanks again to everyone who provided feedback and suggestions. I hope you enjoy this updated version.

oh. I was NOT expecting a place in Special Thanks... I'm incredibly happy right now. Also, thank you for the update!

minor suggestion by the way: what if Mastery raised the Quality of Instructors you gained through the other Training upgrades to 4 instead? There's fictional problem of having to introduce 3~4 new person in one go, and there's mechanical problem of seriously tempting the players to just skip the Training upgrades and go straight for Mastery...
