  • A Desperate Attune Christmas: Two Out of Three Ain't Bad (Blades '68)
    Dec 26 2025

    Officially, the Imperial Intelligence Agency's Headquarters are in Cairn House, Charterhall. Unofficially, the Palace works mostly in the field. An operation targeting Blackthorne Park's own agents in the Dagger Isles has gone sour, leaving both parties in the dark and out some very valuable assets. There's a mole, and the Palace needs them found. Victor Shaw - called Crown by his peers - has set you a task. He can trust no one else. He knows it must be one of three people involved in the operation:

    • Hester Prichard, the cynical handler whose judgment has never been in question even if now her loyalties are,
    • Luca Baine, the spy whose intelligence has ensured the Palace's supremacy despite the best efforts of our rivals, and
    • the assassin codenamed Thistle, whose protege Hyacinth died on the operation under mysterious circumstances.

    No player of the Game can be unaware that they are under suspicion, and the leak might be sprung from Duskwall at any moment. In seventy-two hours, Crown will have to make a decision. The wrong one could be disastrous. The right one could be disastrous. And if Blackthorn Park gets a hold of the mole before us, it will be very embarrassing indeed...

  • No Anthem 03: Afterward, the Compromise
    Dec 18 2025

  • No Anthem 01: Convergence Valley
    Dec 4 2025

    We're back with our experimental 3rd season. We've had a rough year, and this season almost didn't exist. We bring it to you, warts and weird fuckery and all. It's fitting -- after all, this is Apocalypse World: Burned Over.

    We enter Convergence Valley by finishing and introducing our characters, going through our safety tools, and then immediately plotting raids and losing homes.

    It's a sign of things to come.
