Band of Blades

The world is falling as the Cinder King's undead armies march; extinguishing, corrupting all that stands in their way. The living gathered all their forces at Karlsburg, all the loyal legions in a valiant stand against the foe. The living lost. You are the remnants of one of the Legions on retreat from an overwhelming foe. Hope will be the last thing to die.

Band of Blades is a cinematic, narrative driven game focused on the Legion - a band of mercenaries and soldiers trying to survive against overwhelming world-changing odds. The players take charge of the Legion - it's command and the rank and file soldiers. You will make important decisions that will direct the course of this arduous journey and decide the fate of your people, as well as take charge of soldiers and heroes in action-packed or dramatic missions.
The game uses the intuitive Forged in the Dark system where every roll puts narrative first and pushes the story forward for good or ill.
