Eclipse Phase Fiction In New Formats

Submitted by AdamJury on

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 Quick-Start Rules!

Submitted by RobBoyle on

At long last, we present to you the Eclipse Phase Quick-Start Rules!

In This Game, Death Is Optional
These Quick-Start Rules provide everything new players need to dive right into a game of Eclipse Phase. It includes a primer to the game’s transhuman setting, where future technologies allow people to digitally back up their minds and download into new bodies. A stripped-down version of the core rules cover the basic mechanics.

These Quick-Start Rules also come with a starting adventure, Mission: Mind the WMD, that puts the characters on a mission for the secretive Firewall organization to protect transhumanity from a potential deadly threat. Four starting characters are provided, with backgrounds and roleplaying tips, so players can jump right into the action.

The PDF is constructed with layers, so you can drop out the background and other elements for printing and whatnot.

Tony Lee's Amazing Character Generator/Sheet

Submitted by jackgraham on

Tony Lee, one of my esteemed playtest group (currenty holding the record for longest running Eclipse Phase campaign!), has engineered this monster of a character sheet in Excel. It crunches pretty much all of the numbers for you, and it prints rather nicely without demanding that you lay down an entire sheet of ink/toner for background images. Tony's obsessive enough that this should be pretty error free, but I'll start a thread in the forums (in the fan-generated materials section) to discuss any bugs people might find.

D&D 4 character generator, eatcha heart out!

Eclipse Phase Character Sheet Package

Submitted by AdamJury on

If you want to make your own Eclipse Phase character sheets based on our design (or if you want to totally hack it but want a starting point), we've made available the Adobe InDesign [compatible with CS3 and hopefully CS2] and Photoshop files for you to do so! Due to legal reasons we can't provide the fonts/typefaces we use, so these versions of the sheets use, wait for it ... Helvetica! You're going to want to fix THAT right away, aren't you?

When you create new sheets, please email them to charactersheets@posthumanstudios.com so we can check them out!

Here's the link to the zip file containing all the docs you need: http://eclipsephase.com/downloads/EPCharacterSheetCreationPackage.zip -- the files in here are Creative Commons licensed, just like the book, so please follow the distribution rules on our Creative Commons License page!
