Just a heads up to anyone interested in this last [??] RPG from WestEndGames...
...It is now available to http://www.rpgnow.com/product_info.php?products_id=63991.

A little about the game...

"Bill Coffin's Septimus sets the players inside a Dyson Sphere made from an unknown and unknowable alien technology. Faction pitted against faction to control the sphere and the amazing technology therein -- a technology so great that no weakness cannot be eliminated and even death is not final. But, even as the obsessed techno-cult, the Sindivar Extant seeks to build a Utopia around Septimus' many nanofoundries, a dark secret spreads. The same technology that is a boon to so many billions of people contains a flaw, a flaw that may have spelled doom to the great originators, a flaw that threatens to crush Septimus and its inhabitants, even before the greatest of secrets yet remains undiscovered"

Now sure why it's available for FREE, but it looks good - even if you don't like the d6 system it's based on and you just want it for ideas and setting.


Enjoy !!

I just grabbed it. Looks interesting...

The first 100 pages are all background, so I'll have to sit down and do some reading before I really start judging the game.

Looks great! I've always been a fan of Dyson Spheres (ever since Star Trek TNG showed them), can't wait to give this a try

artwork reminds me of fading suns, and the metaphysics is modular

yay didn't even need to enter card details good cos right now I'm with out one. Other wised I'd have to ask for some one to "pirate"* it for me.

Seeing as it is downloadable for free right now I don't see it such.
