Blades in the Dark just got a new, community-fueled update to the popular expansion, Deep Cuts, in the form of a 1.1 update from creator John Harper.
Not long after the initial release of the Deep Cuts, a major new expansion for Blades in the Dark from creator John Harper, comes an update that clarifies and tweaks the expansion with new sheets and more. If you missed the initial release, Blades in the Dark: Deep Cuts is a 118-page book packed with new rules and new lore that really deepens the BitD experience.
What’s really exciting here is the modular nature of the rules. You can use the ones you want, ignore the ones you don’t, and get your crew back in action fast. With updates to everything from Harm and Healing to Actions and Teamwork, there’s plenty to love. And the new 1.1 update makes that a lot clearer.
