  • Posthuman Studios and Sandstorm Productions Play Ball!

    Lake Stevens, WA June 12th, 2010

    “How’d you like to play dodgeball?”

    There’s something to be said about flying into town for negotiations and getting taken directly to a parking lot game of dodgeball at midnight in Wicker Park, Chicago. When you’re in the gaming industry, work and play go hand in hand—you can’t make fun if you aren’t having it!

    We’ve been fans of Eclipse Phase since it premiered. And just as big of fans of Rob, Adam, and Brian—the creative masterminds behind the ground-breaking transhumanist game. So when the opportunity came up to partner Sandstorm and Posthuman Studios, we jumped. (And threw down.)

    You’ve gotten a taste of what Posthuman can create with Eclipse Phase—and we’re absolutely thrilled to be partnering with them to bring a full lineup of new Eclipse Phase books to fans in the coming year. We’re also very excited to be partnering with Posthuman to bring new games to the gaming market, such as the tongue-in-cheek card game of Celebrity Trash Culture, Paparazzi!

  • Eclipse Phase Fiction In New Formats

    Ebook readers are gaining in popularity, and we want to bring Eclipse Phase fiction to them. Whether you have a Kindle (or use the Kindle app for your phone/computer or an iPad or a Sony reader, or almost any other e-ink reader ... we should have you covered here. But, this is a bit of an experiment for us, and we've already discovered some hitches in the Amazon Kindle service. Namely, it tries to charge international customers two dollars more than customers in the USA. A $2 price increase on a a $0.99 title is obscene! So, with that in mind:

    Our first standalone fiction release is Lack; this is the fiction that is in the Eclipse Phase core rulebook. If you already have the core rulebook, you already have it. And, of course, it's still Creative Commons licensed, and the Kindle release does not use DRM.

  • Eclipse Phase PDF "Catalyst/BattleShop Amnesty Program"

    If you have purchased a PDF version of any Eclipse Phase title from Catalyst Game Labs’ BattleShop, please be aware that they are no longer selling our PDFs, nor are they able to provide updates to them.

    Therefore: We want to hook you up with an updated (and future-updated!) copy with our electronic partners, OneBookShelf (DriveThruRPG/RPGNow), free of charge, with as little hassle as possible. We just updated the PDFs within the last 48 hours, adding layers to the core book PDF and to some of the PDFs in the GM Screen packages as well. We want you to have these PDFs!
