After the destruction of the Future in 2072, when the Jammers demolished the Feng Shui Gates, the Architects of the Flesh remained stranded, pulled from their very own temporal continuity.

Tomorrow stopped existing for them. There were only remainings… sealed labs, and leaders hidden into the deepest of their last bastion, The Biomass Reprocessing Center.

Hyde, in his duty as the last Director of Biotechnological Integrity, was looking to the main console while the energy pulses were fading and disappearing one after the other.

— There is no possible return…the future no longer answers – he whispered.

Around him, the surviving Head’s and Chief’s of the diverse Divisions – NeuroEngineering, Genetic Chimerization, ChronoBiochemistry…- were showing the same wear in their faces and eyes: fear beyond imagination, hidden by their tech jargon.

– How are we even supposed to continue our research if there isn’t a stable time line?– one of them snarled.

— We are alone, isolated… – replied another-. Doomed.

Hail Secret Warriors!

We are moving on to the next phase of our long term project and we are looking for new playtesters, should anyone be interested. We will be taking applications during the next few weeks and should we receive too many, we will choose who will be our next playtersters. We will inform the chosen ones. However, if we do not choose you at the beginning, you might still be chosen for a later stage of playtest, or maybe for the following set.
Playtesters will be asked to sign a Non Disclosure Agreement and as per GDPR we will not make public their names or any other contact information. They will receive a printable file with which to use the cards we would like them to test and we are working on a file for their reports to be sent to us (either a .doc or .pdf file will suffice).
We will do several rounds of playtest and will take into account all comments in order to change things or choose one card instead of another one. The instructions on how to provide us with their feedback will include general guidelines, depending on the stage of testing (Alpha-testers having different requirements than Beta-testers).
Should you be interested on helping us, fill in the form.

Thank you, guys!

Hail Secret Warriors!

The crew at Vetusta Games wants to express their appreciation for your continuous support and all your comments. As a response to your strong backing, we would like to make you part of the future we foresee for Shadowfist.

We are following a series of guidelines:

• First, and most important for the whole team, avoid power creep.
• We want to promote different (and if possible, new) deck building ideas, meaning that the way a deck is built is as important as playing it correctly.
• Explore some dead ends in deck construction, and if they do not lead anywhere, they will be left out again.
• We would like new players to be able to get their hands on older cards, and that is the reason why some cars will be reprinted in Modern format.
• At the same time, we want to keep Modern as a “protected” format, trying to avoid what some players call “degenerate” decks, in as far as practicable.
• Reintroduce the Dead Factions back into the game, making them Modern legal, but keeping in mind the previous point.
• For this, we need to make their pool of cards as big as the other Modern factions’ as soon as possible, so they are not in a too much of a weaker position.
• The first faction to be reintroduced will be the Architects of the Flesh. The others will follow in future sets.

To achieve this state of the game, we are releasing soon the new Tournament Promo Pack and the Action Pack 3.

• They are both thought as something interesting for new and seasoned players alike, with new cards and also reprints of older cards.
• There are mainly Architects of the Flesh cards in these packs, so their pool of cards, once the next box is out, will be big enough to build a few different decks in Modern.
• There will also be some 3-cost foundation characters, to explore that path. We know they are slower than using other cheaper foundation cards, and that is the reason why they got some support with the Folch Twins.
• There are some cards that have been modified from previous sets, and they will be Play as Printed versions (Same as it happened with Final Brawl and other cards when printed in Modern).

These two packs will be soon followed by a Kickstarter campaign for a new big set, with 4 pre-constructed decks, one each for the Architects of the Flesh, the Four Monarchs, the Guiding Hand and the Dragons.

Later sets are already in the queue, but that might be going too much into the future. For the time being, we are concentrating on achieving a good end result for these forthcoming sets.

We hope this gives you all enough of an insight into our design path and the reasons behind the choices we have made on publishing some cards instead of others.

As always, we thank everybody for your support and comments, and we want to reassure that we pay attention to and take into consideration everything we are told.

All the best. See you all at the Secret War!!

Post-Essen Thoughts and…
5… 4… 3… … … ACTION!!!

Hail Secret Warriors! 👊👊

After a very intense time during the Essen Spiel, with lots of meetings (manufacturing, distribution, fulfilment companies…) we can announce that we are very close to launch our Kickstarter campaign for the next set of Shadowfist.

We had very interesting conversations with many people that have helped us out polish the last details of the campaign. We have reached agreements that we believe will make the final product as best as possible and we hope you all like what we have been working so hard on. We have decided to make some minor changes to our project based on all these meetings, but it will only take us a few more days to finish with them.

We would like to thank all those people that helped us get to this point. We have seen troubled times at world level (with the pandemic and the subsequent economic crisis), but you all have been there unconditionally supporting us. And that is something we really appreciate and will never be able to thank you enough. The only way we can try to compensate you for your patience and support is by offering you what you all have been waiting for so long.

Shadowfist: Return of the Fallen is almost ready.

You can see our project page here Kickstarter Shadowfist Return of the fallen

We will very soon announce the exact date, but it will definitely be in the next few weeks.

Once again, thank you.

Stay well,

The Vetusta Games Team
