$12 for an ash-can edition? I'd like to give this a spin and give feedback but that seems like a bit much for a draft version. I can afford it, I just find it difficult to justify. Any chance you could bring this price down to in exchange for playtesting feedback?
Nope. Community copies come around every so often, but the game is priced based on the amount of time and effort that went into development and playtesting. If you're uninterested at 12 dollars, I'd advise shrugging and giving it a miss.
Definitely a game I will put to play. Elegant design, clear purpose and a lot of drama !
Things nice to have in a future release :
- bad guys with dark secrets. They seems almost too simple, like "us against them", while I couldn't help to think about the Ender Strategy while reading.
- a single page resume of all the enemies.
- an example of how the clockwork work in play to add tension and drama (and not just to defeat an ennemy)
This is absolutely why we like putting ashcan versions out while we're in development. These are great suggestions. We just wrapped up an 8-episode arc with our home game and managed to forge an alliance with the Tellurians to aid us in our struggles against the Clave. Next season (after we play a couple of other games) will have us racing against our enemies to seek out a new home for Humanity with our new allies.
Thanks for checking out the game! We look forward to giving DISASTER/WING a revision and expansion soon!
There's some talk here at House Drake of doing a limited run of DISASTER/WING and DISASTER/PEACE in physical, but first we need to get Skyworthy printed and shipped.
So short answer, YES! But longer answer, not soon.
That's an interesting question. We've never run it as a solo-game, largely because it's got an underlying theme of teamwork to overcome long odds. There might be the bones for a lone-pilot hack in there somewhere, but that'll take some brain-bytes before I could recommend. I'll do some research on solo FitD games and get back to you!
This is an incredible Forged In The Dark and Disaster/PEACE hack game!
Really simple to learn if this is your first foray to Forged In The Dark games and i gotta hand it to A Couple of Drakes team too to make a book with beautiful and cool layout and concise rules explanation!
Real cool stuff guys, i highly recommend this game.
Thank you so much! We were trying to remove as much of the stuff that made Forged in the Dark games such a hard shift for us when we first fell in love with the system while still keeping the stuff that makes Forged in the Dark our favorite system to run and play.
Feedback like this is basically the highest compliment we could've received. Thank you!

Will you add any more community copies?

Shrug...
Hi, its possible to have community copies?
Sure thing! Let’s get a couple copies up on the pile!
thx a lot
are there community copies still available?
Let me throw a couple up for you!
thank you so much!!!
Anybody running a Disaster/Wing or a Disaster/Peace game I could jump into? UwU
I have a mighty urge to splice both Disaster games into a single campaign in the vein of like... Mobile Suit: Sailor Rangers...
They would merge pretty beautifully! That right there is a really exciting thought!
Definitely a game I will put to play. Elegant design, clear purpose and a lot of drama !

I am so ready to GET IN THE ROBOT!
Outstanding! Humanity's counting on you!
Any plans to go physical with this?

Awesome! I'll keep an eye out. I still have Court of Blades and Skyworthy coming so I'll be well and truly Draked up soon enough.
Thank you so much for letting us take up some shelf space in your collection!
How easy is this game to solo?

Thanks! All of my RPGing these days is 100% solo. :)
Give us a little time, and we can probably build something to suit!
I'm very excited to run this. So many clever ideas in this.
Thanks so much! I hope that when it hits the table you've got everything you need to tell rad as hell Teen Mecha-jock stories!
