This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Cubicle 7 - Rite Publishing Announces Partnership

Cubicle 7 Entertainment and Rite Publishing are pleased to announce they have formed a publishing partnership.

The deal sees Cubicle 7 handling production and marketing for select Rite Publishing print products, starting with Lords of Gossamer and Shadow and Coliseum Morpheuon.

Lords of Gossamer and Shadow is "Powered by Erick Wujcik's Diceless Role-Playing." In this original setting, the player-characters are agents caught up in an immense, multi-dimensional struggle. Born into it, their birthright is one of unimaginable power, and with it... great danger! They will bear unique and idiosyncratic magical artifacts, command legions drawn from the myriad of otherworlds, and wield incredible powers that alter the very substance of reality. They are players in a Machiavellian conspiracy with the greatest of stakes, and arrayed against them are the deadliest of foes... each other!

Coliseum Morpheuon is a Pathfinder Roleplaying Game Compatible 16th-20th level minisetting/adventure set on the plane of dreams. The setting beckons the player-characters to travel the Realm of Dreams to enter a competition unlike any other. Set against the intrigue-laden setting of the Chimeric Ampitheater, the party will have to survive the contests in the arena – and because they happen in dreams, anything can and will happen!

"I've been overwhelmed by the enthusiasm and energy that Cubicle 7 brought to the table along with their willingness to accommodate our patronage business model. It's made me extremely excited and thankful that Rite Publishing have the opportunity to partner with Cubicle 7," says Steven D. Russell, Head of Rite Publishing. "We've been discussing this move since Rite Publishing publicly announced that it had acquired the 'Powered by Erick Wujcik's Diceless Role-Playing' rights, and we've received a large amount of morale and strategic support from Cubicle 7, so it is with pride and great fanfare that I would like to publicly announce our partnership."

Quote from: Simon W;412159I'd like to know the latest on this?

It got greenlit, and the manuscript is in development.

I've been doing a Q&A about the setting for the past couple of months, and have released some of the manuscript (a power) in the last few days, with more to soon follow.
