Now on Drivethrucards: Direct Intervention

Direct Intervention VTES Gines Quinonero

Hi all!

Black Chantry are delighted to tell you that a classic card is now available on Drivethrucards: Direct Intervention. Truly a Vampire: The Eternal Struggle staple, it is worth considering including in almost any deck. It hasn´t been printed since 2006, so it has been somewhat hard to get, but now it can be yours for just $0.35, with powerful new art by Ginés Quiñonero.

Some words from the artist:
When I started thinking about the art for Direct Intervention, I wrote down several ideas for its setting, that ranged from some ancient ruins under a blood storm to a bucolic or oneiric landscape. With reference to its characters, I knew for sure that a Methuselah had to be there. Maybe levitating, or perhaps rising from a sarcophagus, or showing a taste of their immense power.

After that, I drew several composition sketches, and chose a scene with a close-up of a hooded Methuselah burning a vampire behind her, before the ruins of a ziggurat. However, that illustration did not come out the way I wanted, and opted for starting a new one.

This time, using a different composition and setting, with the Methuselah’s victim in the foreground, and the ancient vampire in the background, in the ruins of Persepolis.

For this artwork, I took into account two compositions: one for the full art, just in case it was used for a play mat; and another one for the card, which has a different aspect ratio.

No, Vampire: The Eternal Struggle in Latin is not a joke!

On April 1st, Black Chantry announced that Vampire: The Eternal Struggle has been translated to Latin. We just want to clarify that this is not a April Fool´s joke!

To further prove the authenticity in this endeavour, here are some unboxing videos by the translator Ginés Quiñonero, one for each clan – Malcaviānus, Nosferātus, Taureātor, Tremārius and Ventruus!

This is the original announcement, now in English:

Vampire: The Eternal Struggle in Latin!

The Vampire: The Eternal Struggle Fifth Edition decks are now available in the Latin language. You can buy them on Drivethrucards as a single item. That is, if you buy the item, you’ll get all five decks. The Fifth Edition rulebook and help sheets in Latin are available to download in PDF format on Blackchantry.com.

Why Latin? There are many reasons!
• An opportunity for Black Chantry´s Ginés Quiñonero to practise his language skills.
• The translation work meant yet another deep review of the rulebook.
• Further testing of niche products on print-on-demand.
• Show that Latin is still, after more than two millennia, a living language.
• Create an entertaining new way to teach Latin.
• It is thematically correct! Latin is an ancient language often used by elder World of Darkness vampires. Therefore, it is only logical that Methuselahs can play their beloved card game in Latin too.

Get Vampire: The Eternal Struggle in Latin at Drivethrucards.com.

Get the rulebook in Latin at Blackchantry.com.
