Here is a little adventure setting I cooked up: http://www.aleph.se/EclipsePhase/Indigo%20Latitude.pdf Comments?

Typo alert: it's 'lightning'. That grievous oversight aside, it looks quite marvelous. Your opening fiction is very nicely put together and the Lem quotes are well chosen. Can't wait to sit down and read it through closely tomorrow.

Re: Indigo Latitude
just finished reading through it. Very nice. Could use some proofreading, but still, VERY nice. BTW, are you a member of the Kipling Society?

Re: Indigo Latitude
Looks great. Haven't read it yet in case our GM wants to use it for our game.

Thanks! No, not a member of the Kipling society, but he is a great source of quotes and ideas. If nothing else I hope this adventure shows the existence of a cool environment for exploration right in the middle of the solar system.

Yes, yes he is. I've used some of his stuff myself. I've been a Kipling fan since I first read [i]If[/i] when I was 8. I first ran across the Society a few years ago, right after they put up that site. I've been a regular visitor since, though I'm still not a member.

If that's what you were after, you succeeded. On top of that, I now very much wish to read [i]Solaris.[/i]

Re: Indigo Latitude
Very, very good. And quite in spirit of hard-sf horror setting of EP. For me the problem was that having read Blindsight, I got a hunch what would be revealed later ;) But overall I would say it is on the level of many good rpg supplements I read. I understand that is a gaming scenario for particular adventure? It serves as good location with many plot seeds, although if used as an idea I would give several options for what the real condition of the facility is. Also I think you contained some ideas for personal plot seeds-Zeus Station in backstory of the characters. Overall I would say you could even publish it in pdf form after some editorial work.

You're pretty good at brewing up material for EP. Are you going to do any official stuff for the line? (if you haven't already asked them)
