Black Chantry at Spiel 2022 – kind of!

VTES Essen 2022

Unfortunatelly, Black Chantry Productions cannot be present at the big Spiel 2022 game fair in Essen this weekend. BUT if you swing by the booth of our distributor Blackfire, they will have a Vampire: The Eternal Struggle promo card (Kuyen to be exact) in their demo bag. It´s in hall 2, booth number D102. They will be demoing Flesh and Blood, One Piece and other games. Limited numbers available, so don´t sleep on it!

Also, if you are at Essen and love VTES, don´t miss the annual Saturday tournament in nearby Bochum “We Only Come Out At Night”!

Hello community

Black Chantry Productions and the player organization Vampire: Elder Kindred Network are of course sad that several Vampire: The Eternal Struggle tournaments and other events this spring have been cancelled or postponed, and more such bad news may follow. We respect the decisions that have been made, and we urge you to do the same. Health always comes first, and there are also other factors that weigh in, for example travel, lodging and event economics. Stay tuned for more detailed information from organizers of these events. Meanwhile: This is not Gehenna. Tune your decks. Try playing on LackeyCCG. Gather in smaller groups to play. Stay safe and help where help is needed!
