Advertising Space in New Britain Herald
Advertising a business based out of a location that you control in the New Britain Herald can bring some very positive benefits. It may add a temporary location trait, or it may give you a boost to one of your own backgrounds.
The Herald will be published on the Thursday before each game, and any benefits gained from advertising will take effect during the downtime period following that game.
Currently, the requirement for placing an advertisement is 3 dots in the Resources background. That requirement may change from month to month.
Please reach out to me (Sam) if you wish to place an ad. You can either submit something you have created yourself (as long as it fits into the space provided) or you can tell me what you want to advertise and I can help you design your ad.
Below is the template for the New Britain Herald and the available advertising slots.
DTA Deadline One
The first deadline for Downtime Actions is tonight, (Sunday 27th March) at midnight, in order to earn the top possible XP for them.
Personal Journals
Please record your journals for us, let us know what your character experienced at game, to earn the Journaling XP award. It’s been great to see some of the entries we’ve had so far. Some have got really creative with in character audio recordings and others have written some awesome prose. Thank You!
It really helps us to craft the plot and learn where your characters are going.

Post-Event Thankyou!
We want to say a big thank-you to all our players, we hope you all enjoyed yourselves at the first official ‘full’ event for NEN New Britain.
We are still finding our feet with this new game, and we always appreciate any feedback you have for us. Please message a member of the ST team through Facebook or the Discord channel, and let us know what you want to get out of this game.
Feeding Territories
After negotiations with each clan, Prince Godfrey has now announced the feeding territories for his domain. They are posted here at the top of our puppet page.
In a change from how feeding territories worked before, these territories were bought collectively by each Clan using Boons.
This means the allocation of these territories cannot be changed by the Primogen Council.. They may be sold on for more Boons, but doing so will require the agreement of all members of the clan with Hospitality in the domain.
Each territory is now the responsibility of the clan that claims it. They take responsibility for any violations of the Traditions taking place on their turf.
Completed Quests for Locations
If you succeeded in one of the Simple Quests to acquire a location that was given out with last month's DTAs, please make an entry in your journal, describe how you met the requirements and the events that unfolded during the quest for us.
Once we have your journal entry, we can then grant you the stock location in a reply. We can then use that Journal entry to keep track of any further changes to that location.
Note that while some requirements for a quest may require you to spend DTAs or Influence actions, they cannot be completed in your DTAs. They require interaction with an ST to run the challenges and assign the consequences.
Even if you decide to simply skip the quest requirement by using Resources you must still make the journal entry and tell us how you did it to receive the reward.

A Return to Civility and Prestation
His Grace, Godfrey de Gonneville invites all members of his domain to an open parlor at the private chambers in the New Britain Museum of American Art. On this auspicious night, New Britain will be accepting new long term residents, as the Prince’s one month of ‘free’ hospitality comes to an end.
Those assembled will demonstrate their knowledge of the Traditions and their adherence to the vital institution of Prestation. And those that prove their understanding of these matters, will be rewarded with Hospitality.
Further to the spirit of this magnanimity, his Grace has invited the leaders of all 3 Kindred Sects in the area to present an envoy to the Domain at this parlor. Prince Gonneville will name these three envoys 'Emissaries to the Camarilla’.
His Grace welcomes you all to join him in laying the foundations upon which he will build a stable and peaceful future for the Camarilla of New England.
Game is on this Saturday
The first full event for NEN New Britain will be running this Saturday, March 19th 2022. We will be at.
Friendship Lodge #33
76 Main St, Southington, CT
Doors will open at 6:00PM
Journaling and DTA deadlines
While the deadline to earn XP for your DTAs was up on Sunday, you can still submit them to us if you want to take any actions.
Those of you that have not yet submitted a journal for the additional 2XP can still do so right up until game starts on Saturday.

The History of New England Nightmares
Some of you saw the ‘work in progress’ version of the in-game history of New England Nightmares. We have now managed to write up and clean up the document, and it is now uploaded for you to read here.
A Brief History of NENM Setting
The game history is also available at the same link in the main Puppet Page above.
Notes About the History Document
The history that you read in the document above is written from the perspective of an outsider to the domain. This is the version of history that the Kindred world at large believes to be true and this is the narrative that the Camarilla has accepted.
However, things are never as they appear in World of Darkness, so some of what you read will be true, some will be distorted truths and some will be outright lies.
History is, after all, a matter of perspective…
