Shadowcraft: The Glamour War

ADD TO WISHLIST >
Selected Option:


Fantasy espionage in Arcadia!

Fight actual spectres as a Shadow Agent, a magically imbued superspy, executing clandestine missions in the cold war against the darkness beyond The Hedge.

Shadowcraft: The Glamour War brings you James Bond-level intrigue with Mission: Impossible-style teams working to keep the world's precarious balance. We're using the amazing Fate system to bring you rules for building super spy gadgets, investigating mysteries, using magic, and tapping your spy network for information.

But that's not all. With Shadowcraft, we took take Fate to the edge and beyond. Shadowcraft changes the way Fate is played on a fundamental level, creating an entirely new experience:

  • The conflict system was rewritten to allow for the epic chase and fight scenes you love to see in spy movies. The back-and-forth conflict resolution gives you the opportunity to take a hit to win the day!
  • Arcadia is a magical place, and every single character in Shadowcraft has some form of Expression, the common term for magic.
  • We've taken inspiration from other Fate game to create a robust, yet simple, investigation subsystem.
  • Good spies need good gadgets, but super spies need super gadgets! Forget boring weapon/armor ratings, each gadget you acquire––or are given by the quartermaster––will be a unique item that will help you complete your mission.
Fate has never been so evocative!

As a player in Shadowcraft: The Glamour War, you will be a highly trained Shadow Agent and engage in clandestine actions and operations against the dark court of Kormil. Able to draw from innate magic, called Expression, powerful fighting abilities, and honed skills, you alone are equipped to step from the shadows to fight the darkness. Each Agent will be assigned, or be able to craft, artifacts to aid you in your missions. These items are of lesser power than the Fae relics of the past; nevertheless, they are potent boons in The Glamour War.

Players will tackle their missions on a variety of fronts. You may be sent to uncover information from a high ranking official at a gala, or to cleanse a battlefield from Kormil corruption. Or, perhaps, you will need to engage in rooftop battles to recover a Fae relic, or delve ancient ruins for secrets of the past. As an Agent in The Glamour War, you have to be ready for anything.

What will you sacrifice to keep your kingdom safe?

The full-size preview is giving me an error message when I click on the button, it says "The requested URL /pdf_previews/183946-sample.pdf was not found on this server." Any chance of getting this corrected?

I'm reading through the book and I can't find the rules for advancement even though milestones are mentioned a couple times in the book. Am I just missing them or are they actually missing?

Sounds great... Do you need the fate rule book to play or is this a self-contained book? Thanks!

Robert: it's a fully-contained game. You don't need either Fate Core or Fate Accelerated to play. Many of the mechanics have been completely re-written, so needing the other books didn't work. It's an all-in-one package!

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
