The newest version of Beam Saber is here! Now with flashy cover art by Vincent Patrick!

The changelog is below, but the highlights include greatly expanded lore sections, and a section for those already familiar with Blades In the Dark.

Changelog for V0.42

•  Clarified that the Technician's Simulation ability only applies to action rolls.
•  Removed "Should players be given information that their characters do not have access to?" from Session Zero because it is superfluous.
•  Expanded on the lore for the Izyan Conflict.
•  Expanded on AWV lore to mention the Civilian Walking Vehicles.
•  Changed the "42nd Research Group" to the "42nd Naval Group" because I realized that it would make sense for the DFS to have a dedicated aquatic squad.
•  Replaced mention of "fuel" on the spreadsheet pilot sheets with "quirk." Same for "Devil's Bargain" and "Collateral Die."
•  Added a note that the "S" after a tier value means that squad as Strong hold, and the "W" means that they have Weak hold.
•  Changed the description of Calazar Strategic Depoloyment to make them militarized fans of a media franchise.
•  Added a "The Vehicles" subsection to The Basics section as a hint of the deeper role vehicles play in the game.
•  Rearranged some sections' placement in the book for a better fit.
•  Clarified that a Pilot's player chooses what Scar they take.
•  Slightly expanded the Pilot Actions subsection in the vicinity of Pilot Creation.
•  Added to the History, Tragedy, and Opening sections that they provide XP when expressed during play.
•  Added some clarification to the Regions section regarding how ratings are selected.
•  General formatting improvements such as adding bullet points, indents, bolding, and italics.
•  Expanded the Allies section for greater clarity.
•  Added a section called "Familiar With Blades In The Dark" which highlights the differences between Beam Saber and Blades for players experienced with that game.
•  Created a "character sheet" for Regions. This is a tool to assist with keeping track of Region details, but isn't required.
