October 24, 2006 Steampower Publishing are pleased to announce that Dead of Night is now available via Indie Press Revolution, the premier place for indie press games on the web. Even better - if you spend $25 or more from IPR (and DoN is a mere $20!) then postage is entirely free!

We're also deep into designing our dystopian thriller, Yesterday's Tomorrow, and Andrew has begun to post his design diaries on our forums, the first of which can be found here.

October 22, 2006 I've overhauled the Dead of Night page with a new blurb, some lovely things nice people have said and links to the various adventures that are currently out, all in time for Halloween!

We've also got a new adventure ready for release next week - can you survive from the mall from hell, with the dead rising up all around you, and still find a bargain in the holiday sales?

Finally, if you've not yet picked up a copy of Dead of Night, there will soon be yet another way of doing so - Dead of Night will be available through Indie Press Revolution in the next few days.

September 18, 2006 Future Soldier: Fast Movers is out now from both RPGNow and ENWorld priced $5. Joe Cohen has done a marvellous job with this, his first published work! Fast Movers contains essays and background on every aspect of life as a futuristic fighter pilot, as well as advanced class, feats, equipment and starships!

September 3, 2006 Our latest Future Soldier release, Fast Movers, is out very soon indeed and I've managed to grab a copy of the cover for your perusal. As you might have guessed by the title and the cover, it's all about starfighters and pilots, and I think it will be one of our finest releases so far.

August 9, 2006 This weekend Steampower Publishing is off to Gencon Indy ... kind of. Although Steampower HQ is unable to make the trip to Indianapolis, we will be there not only in spirit, but also a little bit for real ...

Firstly, our ENnie nominated adventure, the Lemurian Candidate, is getting its print debut at Gencon, courtesy of Goodman Games. Limited supplies of the book will be on sale as from tomorrow from the Goodman Games booth.

Secondly, our ENnie nominated editor, Jess Hartley, will also be making her debut at Gencon. She will be representing us at the ENnie ceremony, so if you get the chance, pop by and say hi!

And for those of you not going to Gencon who feel the need for a Steampower fix, well you too can buy the print edition of the Lemurian Candidate direct from Key20!

01-Aug-2006 No sooner has the voting ended for the ENnie Awards 2006, then we've been nominated for yet another award! This time Dead of Night is up for an Indie RPG Award, awarded each year to celebrate the very best in independent game design. Dead of Night is up for Best Indie Game 2005.

July 17, 2006 The voting for the ENnie Awards 2006 has started! Remember to vote - and remember to vote Steampower!

Voting begins on the 17th July, so keep watching as to how you can vote for us!

June 15, 2006 We have released our first d20 adventure, Scattered Drop, which is actually a campaign than a single adventure. We've cunningly designed it so it can be used at any level, courtesy of a sliding, virtual CR rating. It means a little bit more work for the GM, but we make up for that with loads of juicy new rules and background!

Scattered Drop is for sale at all the usual places, by which of course I mean RPGNow and ENGS.

June 10, 2006 Wow it has been a long time since we updated this page! But never fear, for we have been busier than ever! Andrew is hard at work in the slave mines of Black Industries where he has been working on some of their WFRP books.

But he has escaped (for now!) with news of our next Future Soldier release, Future Soldier: Scattered Drop, a mini-campaign and setting for the line following the PCs as they take part in a planetary invasion that goes dramatically wrong! Take a sneak peek at the book here.

April 18, 2006 We've been busy little soldiers over the past few weeks and have a surprise for you - the second book in the Future Soldier line, the Future Soldier: War in the Information Age! It's out now priced a mere $5 from the usual sources. You can find out more, as usual, on our forums.

April 5, 2006 Dead of Night has been a great success at not one, but two conventions in the past week, and we have reports of both in our forums.

The adventure is designed for levels 4-6 and revolves around a spate of thefts of priceless ancient artefacts. But who is behind the thefts, and what is the mystery of the Lemurian Candidate?

March 11, 2006 Several pieces of news for you to make up for the lack of an update this month. Firstly, our first official Etherscope adventure, the Lemurian Candidate, is out on Monday. In preparation for this we've put together a little preview, giving you a look at the Lemurian Artefacts presented in the book, alongside a snippet about the city of a thousand trades, Birmingham.
