GM Ray
I'm ready to run #bladesinthedark I think. #Foundryvtt is all prepped. I've read the book almost fully. I'm going to spend my free time for the next few days consuming only #bitd thematic material.
I'm excited for this game because I see a lot of stuff in the system I like. There is a lot of GM advice in the book and elsewhere online that I think will help to improve all my games. That's one reason I like #pbta games so much.

@GM_Ray bitd is probably my current favorite game. It's got enough system that it helps, but fades away and doesn't trip you up if it's not. The only big downside is that the faction system is a *lot* of work to generate if you're not using duskvol

@GM_Ray Good luck! I am currently running my first BitD game (play by post, though) and having a lot of fun. Nad I am binge watching Peaky Blinders and Shadow & Bone, so I am quite consumed by it :)

@GM_Ray Getting players that may not be used to that {amount/kind/breadth} of freedom on board is usually the hardest part (and not really that hard).

But as a GM: Blades is by far my favorite thing to run.

@mraichelson Luckily for me I run through startplaying.games. Players find me or players that I already have join up.

@GM_Ray You're just guaranteed goodness then. :)

@mraichelson I'm only running a three shot to practice it so far but 3 of my current players are in it and ready.
