Eclipse Phase at Origins

Submitted by RobBoyle on Wed, 2011-06-22 02:25

For those folks attending Origins this year, if you're looking for Eclipse Phase stuff you can find it at the Indie Press Revolution booth: #807.

Please also take a moment to vote for Sunward for Best Roleplaying Supplement for the Origins Awards while you're at the show! We're up against some stiff competition and can use all the votes we can get.

GMs: Posthuman Studios Needs You (or your fork!)

Submitted by kylleran on Wed, 2011-05-04 02:25

Calling all Eclipse Phase players and supporters—we need your help!

If you have ever game mastered an Eclipse Phase game you may be able to help us out. We have three major events coming up where we’d like the help of our GMs.

Gen Con
First we need GMs for Gen Con (August 4-7, Indianapolis, Indiana). This means that if you are going to Gen Con and would be interested in helping us out by running games please email Brian Cross, who’s coordinating our convention presence, at brian@posthumanstudios.com as soon as possible. For Gen Con we have already committed to running 20 games, a significant increase over last year. And Gen Con is really a place where we’d like to show off Eclipse Phase and provide an excellent experience for people who are new to the game.

Original Art Auction to Support Libyan Rebels [2011 April Fool's post]

Submitted by jackgraham on Fri, 2011-04-01 10:30

[This year's April Fools post, with apologies to the octopi of Japan...]
Posthuman is pleased to be announced that we'll be auctioning the original art for the Salamander morph, Oversight Auditor, and Oligarch characters, with all proceedings benefiting the rebellion against Libya's tyrannical Gaddafi regime.

All proceeds from these auctions will go directly to the Libyan rebels, funding the purchase of much-needed assault rifles, grenade launchers, flak jackets, medical supplies, and even surplus washing machine timers for the construction of improvised explosive devices.

"The IED plans are under a CC license," said developer Brian Cross, "We've already seeded the torrent. Anybody in Libya with a Demonoid account has just been empowered to kick some serious fucking ass."

Below is a list of Eclipse Phase games scheduled for TempleCon. TempleCon is a classy little New England gaming convention (now in its fifth year), held at the Crowne Plaza in Warwick, Rhode Island from February 4-6, 2011. I'll be running all three sessions.

Friday

Xenovore: Pick Your Gatecrashing Team

Submitted by jackgraham on Tue, 2010-12-07 12:23

Update (12/13): It looks like I'll also be running this scenario as an event on Infrno.net (so you non-North Americans will have a chance to jump in) some time in February or March. I'll announce the date when I know for sure.

Have your 2 @-rep on the pregens for Xenovore, the scenario I'm writing to run at TempleCon this spring in New England. Here's the scenario description:

'Xenovore.' Four hour slot. Gatecrashing -- exploration of xenoplanets via Pandora gates -- can be both fabulously rewarding and unspeakably dangerous. The Iktomi ruins on Vishnu IV looked like the find of your careers... at first. But now you're going to need some luck if you don't want to end up another layer of dust atop this dead civilization.

Eclipse Phase at TempleCon (Warwick, RI, USA, Feb 4-6) and PAX East

Submitted by jackgraham on Sun, 2010-11-21 11:35

If you're in New England or parts thereabout, I'm currently working on plans for Eclipse Phase at TempleCon (February 4-6, 2011) and PAX East (March 11-13, 2011). TempleCon is far and away the best regional con I've ever attended. Contrary to appearances on their web site, it's a gaming con with steampunk, not a steampunk con with gaming. And if you don't know what PAX East is, you've probably been living under a thick layer of Martian permafrost.

How many people are going? What Eclipse Phase events would you like to see? Let me know, and I'll try to schedule stuff that y'all will enjoy. I'm even up for writing a scenario based on the feedback I get.

As in the past, I'll probably end up recycling some of our events from Gen Con, along with debuting some new material.

Gen Con 2010 Report

Submitted by RobBoyle on Mon, 2010-08-16 21:01

"What the hell just happened here?" — Brian Cross.

Gen Con 2010 has come and gone, leaving us thrilled, overwhelmed, and exhausted.

The reception for Eclipse Phase at the con was exceptionally positive. To our own amazement, the Eclipse Phase Core Rulebook walked away with three ENnie Awards. We received a Gold for Best Writing, a sound testament to the great work and ideas put in by our talented authors (Jack Graham, John Snead, Rob Boyle, Brian Cross, Davidson Cole, Lars Blumenstein, and Tobias Wolter). We also received Silvers for Best Cover Art (thank you Stephan Martiniere!) and Product of the Year. Considering that we were beaten by Pathfinder -- an unstoppable behemoth given its large fan base -- in both of those categories, we consider both of those to be absolute victories.

Gen Con Events

Submitted by RobBoyle on Sat, 2010-07-31 16:00

For those of you attending Gen Con next week, there's a lot going that we'd like to share with you:

First off, Posthuman Studios will be in the dealer's hall at Booth #2009 along with our partners, Sandstorm Productions, and their other partner studios like Wildfire, Closet Nerd, etc. We'll have the print release of Sunward: The Inner System as well as Core Rulebooks, GM Packs, posters, buttons, stickers, and t-shirts. For people new to EP, we'll be running demos at the booth. You can also stop by to get your stuff signed by folks who worked on the books.

If you're looking for some extra fun, we'll be running a game from our booth where agents can sign up to track down a renegade ego. You'll be sent on missions to get clues for tracking this ego down as they resleeve from morph to morph. Prizes will be rewarded for agents who succeed. Just stop by the booth and ask about our ego hunting game!
