A listing of Shadowfist links that at one time or another were active, but haven't been updated in a year or more (sometimes a lot more :) The date in square brackets is the last time I checked that particular link. If you find a broken link, please let me know. All links open in a new browser window.
Innocence - Bryant Durrell's site was the premiere fan site (and de facto official site, since it had way more content) during the Daedalus era. Bryant closed up shop with a sad farewell in November 2001, but you can still download the contents of his site in a zip file. It's current through Flashpoint, and there's a lot of good stuff buried in there. If you'd like to see it before you download, it's been mirrored on Woodenmen and was on Lee Walker's site but that has disappeared. Deck lists, tournament reports, strategy articles, tons of stuff! Flashforward to now: turns out that Bryant is playing again, he made one last update to the entry page of the site in mid 2003, but doesn't plan to add anything new. [1 Dec 2007]
Dave Van Domelen's Shadowfist Page - the silly card lists, now including Two-Fisted Tales! Plus some of Dave's fiction and other officially published Shadowfist material. Last update 15 Nov 2005. [1 Dec 2007]
Crystal Keep - Shadowfist - Stephen D'Angelo's site, with his famous PDF card lists (you need Acrobat Reader to use them) plus basic information about the sets. Current through 10,000 Bullets; Stephen hasn't responded to questions about when they might be updated with the recents sets. Last update 10 May 2003 [1 Dec 2007]
Hafhead's Hole: Shadowfist - Tony Hafner's site includes an overview of the story, some decks (through N2), promo info (through SS), and collector's info on the sets (through N2). Last update 6 Mar 2002 [1 Dec 2007]
Greg Torrence's page - good source of stuff from the Daedalus era. Nice gifs of the faction symbols, Daedalus FAQ 5, strategy tips, card lists and spoilers, designator encyclopedia, and a small section on Hong Kong cinema. Last update 8 Oct 1997. [1 Dec 2007]
Roadblock's movie cards - paste-up cards based on action and HK-ish movie characters. Updated in late 2003. [1 Dec 2007]
Andrew Davidson's Shadowfist Pages - Andrew has been playing 'fist forever :) He's still busy organizing tournaments and playtesting in the UK, and shows up to kick butt at conventions in the US on a regular basis. His website hasn't been updated since 1998, but it does have some photos of Daedalus Throne War art that disappeared into the Netherworld when Daedalus folded. [1 Dec 2007]
Open Directory Project: Shadowfist - list of links maintained by volunteers on DMOZ. Woefully out of date for years, it was finally updated 9 Oct 2002. Dead links are gone; it's actually useful again, although everything there is here too, and more :) [1 Dec 2007]
Brad & Gretchen's Shadowfist Page - Brad Solberg's site lists some kick-butt decks from yesteryear. His Blood and Destruction deck is still worth a look, especially if you're new to the tournament scene and want to see how to build a deck. Last updated June 1997. [1 Dec 2007]
Randall Gee's Shadowfist Page - Randall's site was last updated in 1997. He compiled unofficial errata to the Daedalus Player's Guide, and has spoiler lists in ASCII, postscript and PDF formats, through Flashpoint. [1 Dec 2007]
USC Deckmasters Shadowfist page - Mike Nickoloff's first Shadowfist appearance :) Archive of rulings, Daedalus FAQ 4.5, card lists and spoilers. Last updated 1996. [1 Dec 2007] And if you're looking for Mike, he's busy running Third World Games these days, with Frank Bustamante.
Merlin's Shadowfist page - Earl Miles' page lists four decks. Last updated 1999. [1 Dec 2007]
Open source online Shadowfist - another project that didn't really get off the ground [1 Dec 2007]
Fan Sites that
have disappeared entirely:
I list these for completeness, because there are a lot of dead links to these
sites out there. I found some of them using the Internet
Archive, [archive.org, 1 Dec 2007] and include links to the latest archive
I found, in case you are interested in history. David Eber's site was well worth
a visit while it was active, and still is now.
The Fortress of Shadow - David Eber's former site, accessible using the Internet Archive. Nicely done and lots of good stuff here - faction overviews, card combos, decks, and deck ideas. David joined Z-Man Games' design team in 2000, and stopped updating his site. In 2004, Kevin Chase revived the Feng Shui RPG content, minus the Shadowfist stuff at David's request, and planned to add new content but nothing new since the end of 2004. [1 Dec 2007]
Theatre of Noise: Shadowfist - Robin Parmar's former site has promo information, card set reviews, deck listings (15 or so), and some strategy articles, plus the "rules that screw up newbies" list (look under "Secrets of the Masters"). He still has a live site at the original address, but all it says is essentially, "Sorry, no Shadowfist here." Last update May 2004. [1 Dec 2007]
Brian Bankler's card strategy - Brian posted a semi-regular card strategy write-up to the newsgroup and Yahoogroups forum for a while in 2003. See the archive of his postings here on his website. The last posting was Feb.26, 2003; Brian has a new blog now, but I can't find the old cards of the week writeup there, so this link goes to the Internet Archive. [1 Dec 2007]
Kelanen's Shadowfist - Jonathan Challis' site includes strategy articles, a story article, deck lists, a trade list, and info on UK tournaments. Current through Boom Chaka Laka; news and trades updated 17 Sep 2002. The site disappeared in spring 2006, and is available through the Internet Archive. [disclaimer: I wrote two of the articles on Jonathan's site. I've updated one and posted it here.] [1 Dec 2007]
BuroMil HQ - Shay Bockmann's Shadowfist site is tiny, but contains some classic, killer decks from the Daedalus era. "The Man" is worth a good close look for anyone who duels. Last update 1997? [1 Dec 2007]
Richard Weld's Shadowfist review page - Richard's review of Shadowfist, plus card lists through Boom Chaka Laka and promos. Richard's site is a huge resource for CCGs of all kinds, although as of May 2003, he's no longer updating it, and as of Dec.2007, it's been replaced with a "nothing to see here" page, so this links to the Internet Archive. [1 Dec 2007]
DarkBlade's Fortress - Martin Van Woudenburg's website has disappeared, but you can find it using the Internet Archive. And you can still deeplink to his decks/combos page on his old website (the one before the last known sighting of his full site). Isn't the web wonderful? Decks and combos through Flashpoint. [1 Dec 2007]
Paul Jacobus' website is gone (the ISP seems to be gone, too). Looks like he moved it here, but none of the Shadowfist links work. The old site is still accessible using the Internet Archive, scroll about halfway down the page. He collected a series of essays written by Jose Garcia back in 1996 that are still good reading today. [1 Dec 2007]
Alex Truman's website (Baron's Shadowfist Page) has also gone missing. You can still see his card combos using the Internet Archive. [1 Dec 2007]
Brian's Shadowfist Page - Brian Kawano's website has card opinions, Daedalus FAQ 5, fiction, and the amusing "Heffernan Speaks" section. Take a peek using the Internet Archive. [1 Dec 2007]
Martin Ward's Shadowfist page - Martin's page has a game and faction overview with a short storyline summary. Current through Flashpoint, last updated in 1998, and now gone forever as of Dec 2002. Accessible through the Internet Archive, though. [1 Dec 2007]
The Shadowfist MUSH - no, it's not a new breakfast cereal. Somebody set up their own on-line roleplaying game based on Shadowfist / Feng Shui. Last date on it is Oct.2000 and the website disappeared in late 2003 so it's not active any more. But it does have some interesting (non-official) takes on the storyline up through Flashpoint, which is worth a read if you're interested in the story. [1 Dec 2007]
Michael Barlow's rules variants - brief description of some Shadowfist rules variants, posted in ??. This is a deeplink to get you right to the Shadowfist stuff since it's kind of buried. One level higher and he has a short summary of Kung Fu styles, which is good background for those of us without reflexes, let alone training. This site disappeared in early 2002; look at both using the Internet Archive. [1 Dec 2007]
Heartcutter's Shadowfist - Joe Ganis' website used to serve up the trash talk with tournament reports from the San Francisco Bay Area proving ground league, but now it's only available in the archive. Last update November 2001. [1 Dec 2007]
Jesse's Shadowfist Page - Jesse Thomas' deck lists (18 of them). Last update in April 2002; the decks include cards up through Throne War (I didn't check them all). [1 Dec 2007]
