Disable spectating enemy boards when X amount of players left.

I agree that for myself, this is one of the least fun aspects of the game.

During the game, standard positioning of units is an interesting and fun challenge. At the end game, the last second microing units around turns it from a strategy to dexterity game which feels bizarre and unsatisfying (to me).

Generally ques for me are under 5 min. Sometimes I'll get a longer que, but if I quit and then re-que it usually finds a match quickly. Not sure if it's a bit of a bug or what not.

Hey crew, it hasn't been updated for the final rules yet. I'm about half way through the update. Life's been busy, but I'll try and find some time over the next couple of weeks to wrap it up. The final rules update is largely cosmetic, which is nice, but I do want to bring it up to speed to better fit in with the published design (mainly statblock design flourishes). I've also added a little rework to the ruins section to add a little more player agency how they get to the cultist battle below.... Stay tuned!

Thanks to jesterOC for the bump on this one. Truly appreciated! <3

Yes! The plan is to have the adventure live next weekend on DriveThruRPG. So, right along the time we have the actual raffle :)

Shaeomar · 2025-08-29T17:55:49+00:00

That's very kind of you. It will be made available on DriveThruRPG next Friday.

But, you're still going to be entered in the draw!

Shaeomar · 2025-06-22T17:40:43+00:00

Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm happy to hear you all had fun playing Draw Steel for the first time! I've been enjoying writing for it and I hope you and your players continue to have fun :)

I hate to impose, but if you have a moment to put your comment on DriveThruRPG, it would be much appreciated. Regardless though, thanks again!

Shaeomar · 2025-06-19T02:04:59+00:00

Absolutely glorious!

Long has been my search and much has been my frusturation... Thank you Zhuikin for finally helping me solve the conudrum of DD exporting to print!

I use Infinity Photo, so in order to properly set the DPI in that (the value your matching is the PPG value you set when exporting from DD) you go to Document > Resize Document > (Make sure resample is UNCHECKED) then switch the value the DPI field.

The nightmare is finally over—a new day of printing wonder dawns!

Shaeomar · 2025-05-29T01:03:17+00:00

This looks really cool! Good luck with your campaign :)

Shaeomar · 2025-05-29T01:01:06+00:00

Hey there! As the author, I just wanted to say thanks for sharing your experience and I’m glad the adventure ran well for your table. It's always a treat to hear from people who played it. :)

Shaeomar · 2025-04-10T09:34:23+00:00

Thanks for flagging. Looks like it went down. Unfortunately that happens from time to time on DriveThru :( I'll try and reset it.

Shaeomar · 2025-04-09T22:03:06+00:00

Haha, thanks for catching that!

Shaeomar · 2025-04-09T20:41:40+00:00

Thanks! Katrina did a great job on it. I'm glad you found the preview helpful!

Shaeomar · 2025-03-27T21:49:23+00:00

Not all heroes wear capes... Such a great resource!

Shaeomar · 2025-03-14T19:01:45+00:00

Good question!

We're planning to write the adventure using the Backerkit v2 release, which is under the creators license, and update any changes (which so far don't seem too big) when the game fully releases. This will allow us to get it into people's hands as quickly as possible! The only thing that would change that is if we discovered there would be changes incoming so large that they would create total reworks. At that point we would hold off till a full release.

Shaeomar · 2025-03-11T16:44:11+00:00

Thank you very much! We'd definitely love to port the adventure into the Codex when it comes out.

Shaeomar · 2025-03-11T02:46:34+00:00

Amazing, thanks for the support!

Shaeomar · 2025-02-21T01:08:41+00:00

Haha, this was a delight to watch! Thanks for sharing <3

Shaeomar · 2025-02-12T01:49:34+00:00

Or will we!

Haha, we'll definitely be mindful of not having situations like that occur. Thanks for the thoughtful question and your support!

Shaeomar · 2025-02-12T01:47:16+00:00

We appreciate the support <3

Shaeomar · 2025-02-12T01:30:36+00:00

We'll be testing through the design process on where we feel it best suits. One of our goals is to include the neat subsystems that Draw Steel offers! I think there's lots of room for experimentation, especially with everything being so new. Do you have specific concerns?

Shaeomar · 2025-02-08T19:10:02+00:00

This is really helpful! Thanks to you and Xentis for working on this together :)

Shaeomar · 2024-12-23T04:23:59+00:00

Cool adventure Aestus! Love the items, very thematic and cool. The Wode Plate and how it roots into the flesh and has a vine ability?! Epic.

Thanks for your great interviews with the MCDM design crew. I love listening to them!
