  • Update and Call for Errata

    Just a quick update: The EP Gamemaster Pack is off to the printers! As usual, we won't announce a street date until it's confirmed, but expect it to be a couple of months. We'll make it available for pre-order a bit beforehand. The PDF version of the screen and accompanying adventure will be available before the print release too.

    In other news, the first print run of the EP core rulebook has nearly sold through, which means we'll be taking it in for a reprint soon. Thanks to everyone for the fantastic support and making this game a success!

    We'll be updating the second printing with errata, of course (which will also be incorporated into a new version of the core book PDF), so we're putting out a last call for errata items here. If you've found something that needs to be fixed, post it in our errata thread by the end of this week (Friday January 22nd). We'll be going through these and compiling changes as necessary.

  • Catalyst Core Book PDF Price Reduction

    Effective as of last week, Catalyst Game Labs has lowered the prices for its core rulebook PDFs for all game lines. This includes:

    SHADOWRUN

    Shadowrun 20th Anniversary Edition: $15
    Runner’s Companion: $12
    Arsenal: $12
    Augmentation: $12
    Unwired: $12
    Street Magic: $12

    BATTLETECH

    Total Warfare: $15
    TechManual: $15
    Tactical Operation: $15
    Strategic Operations: $15

    CTHULHUTECH

    Catalyst Game Labs has embraced electronic publishing as a vital medium for expanding a community’s enjoyment of a game line. This is readily apparent with the launch of Eclipse Phase under the Creative Commons license and at a $15 price point, simultaneously with the release of the print rulebook into standard distribution. Catalyst Game Labs continues to follow this pattern with the recent publication of Leviathans’ Lieutenant’s Manual, the first major miniatures game release also utilizing the Creative Commons license, embracing the open-minded nature of the electronic medium.

  • RPG Blog II Applauds EP

    The folks over at RPG Blog II posted up their Best and Worst of Gaming in 2009, and they selected Eclipse Phase as the best sci-fi product of the year:

    Best Sci-Fi Product
    Gold: Eclipse Phase
    I don't usually do Transhuman sci-fi, but Eclipse Phase mixes it with horror and a bit of investigative conspiracy and comes up
    with a nice shot in the arm for the sci-fi RPG genre. Oh, and did I
    mention it was published under a
    Creative Commons license? Total bonus points there.

    That's an awesome compliment, thanks guys!
