Detroit by Night
Immortal History
Motown Down, the 13th anniversary one-shot session
Set during the last week of July in 1967, backdropped by
the infamous Detroit Race Riots, Motown Down was a
glimpse into some of the bloodiest nights in Detroit's history.
As usual, the gameplay didn't go exactly as I expected, but
I am happy with the result.
The biggest problem in writing the scenario was trying
to portray the conflict that was going on in a single
game session. Even a cursory researching of the period
reveals enough conflict to stage an entire chronicle
during that time, especially from the viewpoint of the
Sabbat. Vitae for thought later.
