• In June, two new 54-card packs arrive from the print shop. “Shadows of Berlin” contains reprints of cards that so far have been exclusive in the Berlin Anthology set from 2017 (André the Manipulator, Anne-Marie Bourgeois, The Line, etc.).
• There will be another 54 card set called Shadows of Berlin - the details about that will be revealed really soon!
Upcoming: Shadows of Berlin
“The last Prince of Berlin died in the street, torn apart by an angry mob of Anarchs. That’s something to think about if you believe that the Camarilla is forever, or that the young, naive Kindred of the Anarch Movement can never present a real threat.”
– Vampire: The Masquerade Fifth Edition Camarilla Sourcebook.
This set is a fixed assortment of 54 cards to add to your Vampire: The Eternal Struggle collection. It contains reprints of crypt cards previously only available in the exclusive Berlin Anthology set, as well as some other powerful, sought after cards.
The contents are detailed below. The number before each card is the number of copies of that card in the bundle.
Crypt:
10 Andre the Manipulator
10 Anne-Marie Bourgeois, Inconnu Recruiter
10 Hamid Mansour
10 Laura Goldman
10 Weirich Waldburg
Library:
1 Aranthebes, The Immortal
1 Golconda: Inner Peace
1 The Line
1 Twilight Camp
Total 54 cards
Expected shipping: June 2023 – preorder now in your favourite store!
Great, but why 10 of each vampire?!
When we scheduled the printing of this pack, we planned it as a promo pack for event organisers only. But we changed our mind! It’s better that retailers and customers can access this pack as a normal product. We will do other promo cards later this year instead. And unlike Echoes of Gehenna, this pack can be bought from retailers. Black Chantry loves game stores!
Shadows of Berlin
Exciting news! We are thrilled to announce that "Shadows of Berlin" has just been unveiled as a minipack alongside "Echoes of Gehenna". Preorders for this exciting new release are now open. Although "Shadows of Berlin" was initially not intended for direct sale, due to popular demand, we have made it available for preorders at the same time as "Echoes of Gehenna". Many of you have already placed your preorders, and we appreciate your enthusiasm!
If you have already preordered "Echoes of Gehenna" and would like to add "Shadows of Berlin" to your existing preorder without incurring additional shipping charges, you will receive an email within the next two days with instructions on how to do so. This is a fantastic opportunity to expand your collection with "Shadows of Berlin" without having to pay extra for shipping!
Ich stimme Dir zu:
Ja: Auch bei bisherigen Promo-Sets war das Verhältnis Crypt- zu Library-Karten schon nicht gut.
Altehrwürdige Spieler haben die Karten wohl in ausreichender Menge (zumindest ist das bei mir so; ich benötige als Spieler nichts aus diesem Set). Neue Spieler bekommen jeden Vampir 10mal, was Overkill ist, und dafür interessante Karten nur einmal. Selbst wann man sich mit jemandem einigt, die Vampire zu teilen, klappt das dann bei den Library-Karten nicht. Prinzen, die dieses Set als Promo-Material hätten bestellen können, gehen nun das Risiko ein, sich Promos anzuschaffen, die dann aber wegen der freien Verfügbarkeit der Karten wohl kein hohes Interesse mehr finden dürften (ich als Prinz muss genau überlegen, ob ich das Set bestellen soll, und wie oft).
• Echoes of Gehenna was announced the month before, but now we also know about Shadows of Berlin, another 54 card bundle with reprints of some very desirable cards. Both are available for preorder now; Echoes from Black Chanry Distributions, Shadows from you favorite local shop.
• The Echoes of Gehenna and Shadows of Berlin now have a shipping date: June 12.
• Promo Pack 3 and Shadows of Berlin are now totally out of stock and will not be printed for stores again, but appear for print on demand in the future.
