I'm putting together a short presentation on how RPG designers use historical primary sources for @luciejones83.bsky.social, and I'm swithering about including the fake documents from #ColdCity 2nd ed. I mean, they do look great.

Wow. Cold City has 100% five star rating @drivethrurpg.com and a series of brilliant reviews: Hector writes: "Love the research, the feel, and the subtlety of game design. And for all that, it is fast-moving and on the low end of prep time."

As well as being a very generous short thread from @trvshane.bsky.social, he also cuts to the heart of what I wanted to do with the 2nd editions of #ColdCity and #HotWar - embed actual historical understanding in a an accessible format.

The cover of the TTRPG Hot War, rendered in shades of red, against a grey background photo of an aerial view of London and the River Thames.
1) In redesigning #HotWar for its 2nd ed w/ @handiworkgames.bsky.social, a lot of work has gone into further embedding the game's themes into the play mechanics. A way this was done in #ColdCity was to introduce 'The Cold'. But in HW, this is replaced with 'Breakdown'. So what's that then?
