Hey Critical Crew!
Those of you already in the Hivemind group in our Discord server may already know this, but we wanted to make sure everyone in our community was aware of our latest announcement!
This past weekend we announced in the Discord that we were debuting our new Playtest role, allowing those who choose to opt into it the chance to see upcoming content prior to it's release (and even run it at their tables and give input!) Dillon and I have long imagined the day where we'd be able to create content and have a core group of loyal friends and fans get their hands on it first - allowing us to make necessary revisions before the content ever sees the light of day with the public, knowing that this would allow our content to become even better than ever before.
To kick this off, we're bringing our first-look at our upcoming Renegade player class for February 2024's wild-west -themed "The Edge of Nowhere" release! We're bringing you our take on the gunslinger, via a full player class with four subclasses - each tailored to one of four different styles of firearms. We've officially opened up the playtesting for this and would love to invite anyone interested to come check it out. Playtesters will find links to the alpha version of the Renegade player class, as well as sample Firearms and Ammunition to use at their tables, as well as an included Google Forms survey, where we're collecting feedback and also the names of those who got involved (as we will be listing them in the credits for the eventual release).
To become part of this, be sure to join our Discord server, head to the #Get-Roles channel and opt into the Hivemind role, and from there navigate to the newly-unlocked Hivemind-Get-Roles and opt into the Playtest role. We are keeping the Renegade open for playtesting through the end of November, to allow ample time for people to play as and/or run it at their tables, and are eager to get feedback from everyone!
If this sounds fun to you, be sure to come check it out!
