If you want to play vampires i highly recommend it! if you want to play mortals you can play Chronicles of Darkness, and create a vampire anatgonist, so there are a lot of options to make a fun game! the maroon and different shades of red the cover invokes fits. The book it self is amazing! like, the art itself is beautiful! well made, and very fitting of the setting the book is set in. for me, i prefer the physical print, because it'll be much easier to have the book there so you can open up for the information, and it's confusing to find the information you need to get or know. My main complaint is the placement/format of the information on the book, but on the PDF that kind of fixes the problem with the CTRL+F function. I love the setting and story hooks it provides, and if you want to explore Requiem more, the supplemental books are very good reads on their own, and if your players wants to explore further their clan, they can develop their character even more, or create some interesting npcs as well. The theme of Requiem is living amongst humanity and battling your constant addiction to feed, while dealing with drama of your coven, explore themes of political intrigue, cloak and dagger type stories, or infighting amongst Kindred. What can be said about Vampire? it is the flagship of CWoD with Vampire: The Masquarade, this is a reimagining of VtM, and to me, i love reading this book! the lore, the mystery of the clans and history of the covens and how to work them into the real world, which i greatly appreicate. With the proper preparation, no one need fear death by exsanguination or an eternity spent in darkness.I purchased both the PDF and Hardcover books, so i will review the physical book, as my complaint is from that. *Work pages to hone weapon selection, defensive and offensive techniques, and precise staking strategies *Interactive mental and physical exercises that will teach invaluable fighting techniques and prepare you for battle *Detailed illustrations to aid in identifying various types of the undead and their vulnerabilities, as well as anatomical drawings you can color to promote knowledge retention Therefore, the Institute for Undead Combat Studies has once again created an essential practice handbook for anyone seeking to avoid serious injury, infection, or death at the hands of a vampire. But without appropriate training, even the most adept slayer of bloodsuckers can be left vulnerable. In The Vampire Combat Manual, Roger Ma, the nation’s preeminent expert in undead warfare, prepared the average citizen to defend against a brutal vampire attack. It’s also a nifty supplement to the The Vampire Combat Manual, and when the two are combined along with some crayons, it makes a perfect bundle for prospective vampire slayers, especially with the Halloween season upon us. On its own, it is a quick study for anyone who finds themselves up against a fanged creature of the night, or for the experienced fighters who need to brush up on their skills. In case this isn’t obvious, The Vampire Combat Field Guide activity book is pure fun for adults. My review copy came with a pack of crayons, and do you know what happens when you give an adult some crayons? THEY COLOR!!!Īs far as the activities go, author Ma creates quizzes and areas to make preparation lists, along with crucial tips, while Kurt Miller contributes helpful illustrations that show how to do some of the maneuvers from the The Vampire Combat Manual (Miller also did the art for the Manual). Well, I’m here to tell you, you’re totally not. Now, maybe you think you’re too old for a coloring book. That’s right, it’s a coloring book!!!Īnd what types of things will you be coloring? Items like an axe, stakes, and some garlic, as well as the undead themselves - like the memorable snarling minidress-clad vamp - and the badass vampire hunters that combat them. That’s why, when you’re done following the prep and training from the manual, you should brush up on what you’ve learned with its new ancillary, The Vampire Combat Field Guide: A Coloring and Activity Book For Fighting the Bloodthirsty Undead. ![]() By the time you’re done, you should be able to battle alongside Buffy.īut, going up against a powerful creature like a vampire shouldn’t be done lightly. Then, it gets to the good stuff - how to fight a vampire: the training, weapons, strategies, and techniques. The manual, written by Roger Ma, begins with the history and common myths of vampires before moving on to the beings’ anatomy, weaknesses, and vulnerabilities. In 2012, the Institute for Undead Combat Studies published the The Vampire Combat Manual: A Guide to Fighting the Bloodthirsty Undead, a survival guide to coming face-to-face with the ever-popular supernatural beings.
