Unhallowed Necropolis

$ 36.95

 

London sits at the heart of a vast and haunted empire. Within its sprawling fortifications, its teeming population lives alongside the spirits of the discarnate dead. Now, science has pierced the veil separating mortal man from death’s other kingdom. The mysteries of the hereafter stand ready to be revealed, but not all of the restless dead are willing participants. And the living, too, possess their own secrets. The deranged and traumatized inhabitants of the city manifest psychical abilities of a frightening magnitude. The asylums of the metropolis have become vast warehouses for the criminally insane, powder kegs of psychical energy in which human time bombs tick toward inevitable detonation. Unhallowed Necropolis details the secret history of the supernormal and introduces ghosts, psychics, and mediums to the Neo-Victorian World. Unhallowed Necropolis™ is the supernormal source book for Unhallowed Metropolis™ Revised, the gas-mask chic role-playing game of Neo-Victorian horror. Within its pages you’ll find… Complete rules for volatile psychics and the spectral entities that haunt the Unhallowed Metropolis™ Five new Callings—Alienist, Exorcist, Medium, Parapsychologist, and Psychic. The wonders of aether technology, new Qualities & Impediments, and much more

In this episode of Figure Forge Matt assembles the Stormwall from Privateer Press. The Colossals only look like tough models to put together. Watch the video all the way through before assembling yours. Matt had a couple of downfalls he wishes he could have avoided.

Mistborn Review

Mistborn is an RPG set in the fantasy steampunk setting created by Brandon Sanderson. Before getting too in depth with the review I must give Brandon two thumbs up on his involvement in the process of creating the game. He not only authors the introduction story, he makes comments throughout the book.

 

The book itself is large, 500 pages. It is really three books in one. It is well organized and follows a sensible direction for teaching you how to play the game. I did find myself wishing there was more art. The book opens with a short story. The short story does an excellent job of immersing you into this game world. Sharing with you some of the basic concepts, like how this world is different, and allomancy. Allomancy is “metal magic” or one’s ability to weave, control or manipulate the powers and effects a metal obtains.

The world of Mistborn is a world trapped in an industrial revolution. The government is a fascist one that basically makes you conform or die. A few people (your character maybe) take on roles of thieves and bandits. By skirting the law they are easily seen as rebels, and heroes.

Level 7 from Privateer Press

From the Privateer Press  release

“There is no Subterra Bravo.”

Officially, the top-secret military facility doesn’t exist. There is no record of it: no blueprints, no photographs, no credible accounts. Rumors persist, but no one has ever found it. And those who have looked have disappeared.

Hidden from the trusting citizens of the U.S., inhuman denizens conduct gruesome experiments on their human victims. A small band of captives have awakened deep in the aging facility and now face impossible odds in a desperate attempt to escape with their lives.

Welcome to LEVEL 7, a sinister science fiction setting where nefarious conspiracies conceal the government’s collaboration with an unspeakable alien menace. More than a single game, LEVEL 7 is a whole world to be explored through a series of interactive and multimedia experiences.

 

Level 7 is due to release in September.   With any luck we can find out something more about the game at Gen Con.
