Hey gang,

I just ordered the physical edition of your game on amazon and saw you're offering to match those purchases with digital editions. Much appreciated! I don't really see another way of reaching you about this, but let me know what I can do to verify my buy. 

It looks great by the way, I'm looking forward to playing.

Howdy Belter,

Send a wave to acoupleofdrakes at outlook dot com and we'll send along a key to match your purchase. Hard copy flight documentation without a digital backup ain't our way out here, hoss. Let's get you suited and booted with a proper electronic flight bag before you go and get wealthy picking the bones of birds, how's about?

We'll keep an eye out for you.

Chariot, out.

Hey Chariot,

One quick question about Black Contracts: when you spend your last point of Grit while on one, do you generate a threat from the normal table or do you only generate the contract’s unique threat?

Good question, Belter. You're going to be dealing with the Black Contract specific threat if you cash in your last point of Grit. Can you imagine dealing with the Haint on the Lucky Star, jumping at shadows and feeling it curling around your brainstem with every step and then having to run from an Alien as well? 

Now that I'm reading through that, it does in fact sound like a thing the 'verse would throw at a Belter on the job, don't it? As intended, it's just one big problem at a time. Do the job that's in front of you. Then when you're good and wealthy, got all of the Black Contract goodies unlocked, then you worry about layering on extra problems.

Best of luck out there, Belter.

Chariot, out.

Thank you so much! One other rules question: I noticed that while most of the Belter classes have 8 points split between Grit Gear and Load, the Slicer has 9 (2/4/3). Is this intentional or a typo?

Intentional, Belter. Slicers tend to feel that 2 Grit early and often, and one of their playbook powers is highly situational. Playtesting made them feel a little anemic with 8 stat points, so we gave them a little boost to smooth the early runs. Good question, though!

Hi, just wondering if you had more contracts planned? And maybe a revision of the oracles to add little twists to the different barriers (maybe that would be a hard mode oracle lol)

Howdy Belter,

Yeah I reckon in quiet moments that I'll probably be moved to pass along another couple of Black Contracts. Probably a small anthology, to be honest. It's one of those things that I like to tinker with when the shifts drag on. 

As to reworking barriers, that's a harder sell for me. Development, testing, and balancing for 26 additional mechanical impacts is outside the scope of what we intended for barriers to add to the play experience. But that don't mean you don't have my blessing to fuss and noodle on it to your hearts content. Additional oracles and Contracts are always welcome. Post em and get paid,  Belter. 

Chariot, out. 

I stumbled on a video for this and it looks awesome but I have two questions:

- Is it still possible to get the pdf etc by purchasing the Amazon copy?
- The video showed two additional books Oracle A and Oracle B, do those come with the Amazon purchase?

Howdy Belter,

We absolutely honor purchases through all of the various ways and means to get your hands on a copy of Dead Belt with a complementary PDF and all the trimmings. Y'all just shoot a wave to our acoupleofdrakes inbox and we'll suit you out. And both of those oracle booklets are included, one after another, in the consumer-grade (non-zine) edition of Dead Belt.

Y'all let us know if there's anything else. We'll be on-station.

Chariot, out.

Hello there, I have another question about rolling and solving the payday. Let‘s say i rolled a 4, so i can choose 2 of the bullet points.  If i choose the last two (1. transport in one trip; 2. it‘s worth more…), so my question is: does all other points became true in their opposite version ? Which means 1. have to spend a grit to remove; 2. check gas to remove; 3. roll the shipbreaker move; 4. generate a threat. 

Thanks for help! 

You got it in one, Belter. You're spending picks to make the thing true. If a thing isn't true, the opposite is. Try not to bite off more than you can chew, now. Or else start cultivating a strong jaw.

Best of luck out there.

Chariot, out.

I understand. It wouldn‘t be easy :D Thank you! 

Just want to note, that i sent you an email, because of the digital stuff (purchased it via amazon) 

Hey there.  I also bought a physical copy from amazon.  Possible to get access to the digital content?  Thanks.

Love to, Belter. Send us a wave at acoupleofdrakes at outlook dot com and we'll send a key that'll get you the welcome package.

Fantastic.  Sent an email and proof of life for the physical book.  Really excellent game.  Appreciate it.

hi there, just wondering if any community copies will be available soon

Hi! I ordered and received the physical copy from Amazon for my brother as a gift. How do I get the printable materials? Thanks!

Just got the physical book, loving it but how do I get the character sheets? Are there any PDFs for download?

Dear Mr. Drake, or Mr. Drake,

I am having a bad day of archery, in Sherwood Forest. I have already lost two arrows, and that is my pensioner disposable income blown. I am sure that Dead Belt would help me feel much better. PLEASE help me breathe!

Take from the Bank and give to the Belters now, y'hear? Twenty copies on the pile for your good works out there. Cold in space, not our hearts.

Just bought a physical copy & it is awesome! I was trying to get my hands on the character sheet & some of the extra pdfs with no luck.

Found your message there, hoss. Sending along a key with my heartfelt thanks for giving our weird little game a try. Let's get you rolling, what say?

Thank you! 

I’d love to play this. Any chance there’s any buddy breathe copies available? If I enjoy it I’ll get the physical copy!

I ain't the kind to begrudge a buddy breathe to a buddy gasping. Plus it's old Chariot's birthday today. 

Seems the time for presents, don't it?

I appreciate it!  And Happy Birthday!!

It’s free, enjoy 👍
