We feel the Urban Manhunt Companion accomplishes that goal. There really is something for everyone in this product.” The Urban Manhunt Companion was originally going to be released last year, but the global pandemic slowed down the playtesting process to a crawl. “We didn’t want to release a supplement that wasn’t thoroughly playtested, so we opted to wait. We’re happy we did, because the end result is exactly the product we wanted it to be from the beginning.” The Urban Manhunt Companion is available as a PDF at DriveThruRPG and Wargame Vault.
