We’re pleased to announce that the Kingdom & Commonwealth Omnibus I is now available for Clockwork & Chivalry 2nd Edition. Containing the first two adventures in the epic Kingdom & Commonwealth campaign, The Alchemist’s Wife and Thou Shalt Not Suffer, the book takes your Adventurers across war-torn England, from Oxford to Cambridge, in the middle of a deadly winter on the track of a missing person, then onward to witch-haunted Cornwall for a showdown with the Witch Queen herself. Fully updated and revised for the Renaissance rules, the adventures have been expanded and polished (with our patent clockwork adventure polisher!), new illustrations added, and the whole book reset to match the 2nd Edition rulebook. It’s available any day now from your local game store, or directly from our publisher, Cubicle 7 Entertainment.
There’s a very nice review of Clockwork & Chivalry Core Rulebook 2nd Edition by Rory H. over on RPGNow.com!
“If you were a fan of the first two editions of Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay, then you’ll love this. The OpenQuest based rules are well modeled to the genre, and this really is a meaty, well laid out book. There is a rich vein of British black humor, some thoughtful magic systems (Alchemy, Witchcraft and Clockwork inventions), and the society of the setting is well illustrated through a multitude of Career choices, and political factions. The history of the English Civil war is also well researched, although I must stress this is very much a fantasy setting, rather than a pure historical game. With some good adventures in the back to get going, and a set of Campaign supplements that are on a par with Warhammer’s Enemy Within campaign, there is a lot of fun to be had in this game. I only wish they could have called it something a bit more dramatic sounding…..like Warhammer, f’rinstance….”
We’re pleased to announce that Abney Park’s Airship Pirates RPG has won Best Game award in the Steampunk Chronicle Reader’s Choice Awards!
Peter Cakebread & Ken Walton will be guests at CONfusion, Keele University, 15-17th June 2012, talking about start-ups and indie development; covering how they set up their own company and the inspiration that allowed them to create these systems. They might even run a game or two, too…
Brand new online RPG magazine The Gazebo has an article about the top five best steampunk role-playing games. Abney Park’s Airship Pirates RPG comes out top…
“Airship Pirates wins first place for two reasons: the setting is rich and imaginative, unique among Steampunk settings, and the core ethos of the game is very punk. It’s all about winning your freedom by your own skill, wit and strength – but realising that with freedom comes responsibility. It’s about fighting the oppressive aristocratic regime with your own hand-built tools and balls of brass. The system is also perhaps the most forgiving of the lot to new players, while having enough depth for old hands.”
Thanks chaps and chapesses, ’tis a fine new magazine you’ve crafted!
