Have you had a chance to play with the Guilds yet? If so, how'd it work out?
I played with guilds once, but no one met new denizens and almost no new adventure cards appeared. So not really a test I guess.

That'd be my primary concern when playing with this Expansion, especially since I haven't even had a chance to play with Denizens at all yet. Seems like it would be tricky to ensure that you encounter the right denizens to ensure the right denizens pop up to promote guild activities. I might consider adding on some extra Guild Halls function to the Tavern space, where you can always encounter one of the three guild leaders as an alternative to drinking at the Tavern.

I played three more times and the problem is definitely there.

To fix it, I'm gonna try the following:

1. The three denizens also have an option to buy favours at a reasonable price.

2. One new denizen that will sell you a random favours cheaply.

3. A new rule that a character can stop his movement at "draw denizens" space.

I will also make a Guild War alt ending that makes the whole expansion much more prevelant.

I'd really like to try this expansion out. Did anyone make a backup of the expansion before the Dropbox link expired? Bludgeon's stuff looks amazing. I'm really wanting to try his various expansions out!

I have a copy. If Bludgeon's alright with it, I can send it your way.

Awesome, thank you so much! I'll get started on setting it up for printing.

Do you by any chance have any of his other stuff?

There's the general expansion linked here:

or his: Remnant Expanded, Lost in the City, or The Werewolf Deck?

I did find copies of the other couple he's posted at times.

I just heard back from him and he is arranging to upload his creations so I can stick them on the site :)

Awesome!!

About time!

Did you decide to remove Guild Quests?

Guild Quests were moved under a scenario - guild war. The scenarios will be uploaded later (much later, as most of them are either unfinished or not playtested).
