Clockwork & Chivalry for RQII

[carandol]

Just noticed that this news doesn't seem to have reached the RQ forum...

If you have any questions, ask away!

Hey that sounds interesting. :wink:

 

[Mikko Leho]

It certainly sounds more interesting than Deus Vult. Waiting for more details (page count, planned supplements etc)

Well, that's nice to know, though don't let Matthew hear you!

The initial worldbook will be 192 pages, and will be followed a month later by a 96 page adventure campaign, "The Alchemist's Wife". Then there will be a series of sourcebooks and further adventures at regular intervals after that, details yet to be finalised...

Well I did not mention Wraith Recon, which sounded like a fantastic setting even with 4th edition :wink:

 

[TrippyHippy]

This sounds brilliant to me!


Incidentally, I thought Deux Vult looked pretty good too - just something that I wasn't really going to commit to currently. I want alternative fantasy ideas - as well as psychedelic stuff, wherever possible - for my RQ2 (which is now my fantasy system of choice).

 

[Kravell]

I'm very interested in this (as well as Deus Vult). Clockwork machines for RuneQuest sound great and I like the historical setting.

 

[TrippyHippy]

Actually, it may help to get the spelling of Deus Vult right, and looking through the preview, there does actually seem to be some good stuff in it. I'm pleased to see that they appear to be utilising all the rules aspects (magic and cults especially) in the setting, so I might make a purchase of that one too.

I am liking what I am seeing for RQ2.

Hi Folks,

We now have a shiny (well, it's quite rusty really) new website - there is also a PDF preview of the worldbook available.

We hope you like what you find, any other queries and we will try to help!

I'm really excited by this setting - it offers something a bit different doesn't it? - but I hope it will be available in PDF also. It takes ages for books to arrive in NZ.

Yes, it should be available from DriveThruRPG, etc. There will also be an adventure in the July issue of Signs and Portents.

Thou Shalt Not Suffer, our third book (and Volume II of the Kingdom and Commonwealth Campaign) for Clockwork & Chivalry, is available for preorder at Cubicle 7.

We've just put a couple of new downloads on our site. Firstly, the C&C character sheet. Secondly, a 20 page booklet of maps and NPC portraits for the forthcoming "The Alchemist's Wife" adventure, which will be useful for anyone running the first part of the Kingdom & Commonwealth Campaign.

The downloads are available here http://www.clockworkandchivalry.co.uk/downloads/

We're off to Continuum at the weekend -- hope to see some of you there!

Hi Folks,

There's an adventure, "The Naked and the Dead" for Clockwork & Chivalry, plus a new Profession and a new Faction in this month's Signs & Portents magazine from Mongoose, available for free download here: http://www.mongoosepublishing.com/home/det...878&qsSeries=13

and hopefully see some of you at Continuum this weekend,

And of course the Core Sourcebook is available here -

and to keep you posted - we went to Continuum where we ran a game - Oliver Cromwell and the Dragon of Naseby. This adventure will probably be in the August 2010 Signs and Portents, along with some pre-generated Adventurers. We were very pleased by the reception the game received. The corebooks are ready and looking very smart (as is the Alchemist's Wife, which will be available in August). If you have any questions about the setting, fire away (no promises though, the joy of the period is that so much of the history is disputed).

Anyone planning to run our Dragon of Naseby adventure which is in this month's Signs & Portents might like to know that a PDF containing the pre-gen character sheets and write-ups is available on our site.

Clockwork, Alchemy and Adventure
This month sees the release of The Alchemist’s Wife, the first volume of the epic Kingdom & Commonwealth Campaign, a six-part series of 96-page adventures which will take adventurers the length and breadth of England and way beyond. Rooted in the complex revolutionary politics and religion of seventeenth century England, but adding a wild mixture of eccentric characters, weird inventions, evil witches, sinister villains, ghostly apparitions and hungry ghouls, the campaign starts from small beginnings with the disappearance of an alchemist’s wife, and ends with events that could change the history of Britain and the world itself.

October will see the release of Thou Shalt Not Suffer, in which the adventurers visit Cornwall to try to prevent the secret machinations of the monstrous Witch Queen and her minions. This supplement contains new Witchcraft rules and Professions for players and GMs. In December comes No Man’s Land, in which the adventurers visit the Debatable Lands around Birmingham and get involved in mechanical and magickal trench warfare in a post-apocalyptic wasteland.

2011 will see the release of: Quintessence, in which the adventurers voyage beyond the shores of Earth in search of a new element that could change the balance of power in the civil war; Hobbes: Leviathan, in which the adventurers find themselves in Paris, where their nemesis is plotting with Cardinal Mazarin for the downfall of England; and the series will culminate in the grand finale, London Calling, as England’s capital faces total annihilation, and the adventurers must somehow forge a peace between the warring sides to face a common foe.

Long Live the Mainspring!

I'm looking forward to checking out this setting and hopefully running the campaign.
