0.3 - To Bleed Others, You Must Bleed Yourself First



Greetings Manggugubat!

0.3 brings with it a host of new updates and polishes to the game. In addition, there is now art for the Songs For The Mangaawit. This update features the Ayam Hunter!

The major part of this update is definitely the Convictions. The reasons for why your Manggugubat fights in a war torn land. Convictions come last in character creation, letting you define things that might have happened to your Manggugubat before they arrived at their reason for fighting. In addition, there are now Conviction Beats, which interface with your Manggugubat's Conviction and serve to instill even further drama through convictions.

The other major part of this update is the KITATAK COPPERPLATE INSCRIPTION, which is the lore and setting book for Kitatak. It will likely be expanded with more things in the future, but it should help color and inform you about the Late Porcelain Period Fantasy of Kitatak.

This update includes the following:

  • Alphabetized Lists for the Professions. No longer in that semi-random style. 
  • Clearer Character Creation Rules. One page will guide a Manggugubat through character creation.
  • Expanded Backgrounds. Each Background now has a special feature or benefit attached to them, inspired by Playbook moves. 
  • Convictions. Why does your Manggugubat fight? In a land that does not need any more fighting?
  • Points renamed into Beats. Beats are narrative widgets that trigger whenever something happens in the fiction. There are manipulations and edits done as well upon the existing Beats.
  • General typo fixes and clarifications. Important for a game such as this.
  • Some Knacks have been updated. 
    • Violent, Flirty, and Fleet-Foot have been changed. Ferocious has been replaced with Scarred.
  • PDF Bookmarks. With the arrival of Affinity Publisher 1.9, we've been able to implement PDF Bookmarking! It's still crude for some reason and the implementation of bookmarking doesn't seem to be super clean, but something is better than nothing!
  • Art for Ayam Hunter.  The dogs have arrived.

The next major update should be a revision of the playtest campaign packet! A revision of the first chapter of FAILED FAITH AND HOPE ASUNDER.

A special shoutout to @LeetProcrastin1 (LeetProcastinator in the Discord) for spotting many typos! Huge thanks to them. Feel free to join us in the Discord! https://discord.gg/3jgZSmzH7G

That's all for now. Thank you Manggugubat, and remember that the seas split for we alone.
