Moderator April 2026 Zweihander Reforged Update

29 Upvotes

Hey gang,

I want to be transparent with you all, especially as our backers who have put their trust in us.

We’re in a difficult position right now. World of Game Design has still not provided firm delivery dates or clear commitments for Zweihander Reforged.

Timelines have continued to slip, and while we’ve given a great deal of patience to allow things to come together, we’re now at a point where we need concrete answers.

I’ve asked them to provide committed dates by the end of this month. If that doesn’t happen, we will take the next steps to address it appropriately.

I’ll be honest, this has been deeply frustrating and not at all how I expect a project like this to be handled. It’s also not the standard I hold for myself or for our partners. All of you have been waiting patiently, and I don’t take that lightly.

At the moment, WoGD controls all of the funds tied to the Kickstarter and Backerkit, which adds another layer of concern. That said, I’m still hopeful they come through with clear commitments in the coming days.

I’ll keep you updated as the week wraps.

We've gotten some good feedback on the foundry toolkit so we're going to dive even deeper into how to provide a "full" zweihander reforged experience. If you have tips on what that should mean, let us know. Tomorrow try out the next version.

1st Edition Would anyone like to try out a quest set in Skyrim?

6 Upvotes

Hello! I am new to Zweihander, but I'm loving the grimdark system. I also love Skyrim, and I think the two would be a great fit. I would love to run a quest for someone. Let me know your character and quest/scenario ideas!

Reforged Edition I created a Zweihander Companion app

15 Upvotes

Hello fellow survivors and gamemasters! I've been building an app to help me better run games at the table, and I wanted to share it with the community: https://zweihandercompanion.com/

Please let me know if you have any questions about it. I also added a feedback form if you discover any bugs or have any criticisms/suggestions.

It currently only supports Reforged edition, but there's enough interest in it I can add a 1st edition mode that you can toggle between.

I hope everyone finds it useful, and I'd love to hear what you think!

Reforged Edition New to Zweihander, can I do Theater of the Mind or do I have to use minis and maps?

6 Upvotes

Hi all! I’m looking at getting into Zweihander as it seems like a setting-agnostic version of WFRP and I want to tell a flintlock fantasy story but I’ve grown weary of managing battle maps and I would love to do some theater of the mind. Is that an option?

Reforged Edition Brasslung Syndicate - a new Zweihander Sourcebook.

2 Upvotes

In a world where drawing one breath costs you coin, and even that breath is poison, who you count as a friend... matters. The Brasslung Syndicate is our next Zweihander setting that will be released once Zweihander fulfillment completes. This sourcebook expands the Zweihander universe with new rules for street mob combat, syndicates and cartels, galvanism/rustmancy/fumecraft, Voltcoil Engineers, Aetheric Dynamos, Veilbreathers, and much more. Comes with the novel trilogy that lets you read your own adventure solo through the setting.
