Tonight’s podcast brings together Jason Tondro, Jack Norris, Rick Jones, and Aaron Sullivan for a powerhouse discussion on upcoming Vigilance Press products! We also answer some fan questions and discuss some finer points of GM’ing a campaign- NPC Character concepts, adventure design, and more!

Check it out for previews of several projects, including METAs; Rogues, Rivals, and Renegades, and More!

Also check our our latest Print on Demand offering from Create Space here: Black Chapter! (Also available on Amazon.com- search for “Due Vigilance” and it’ll pop up)

Sign up for our 4-hour Demo game at next week’s Infrno.net here! 

(Unfortunately, I mis-spoke in describing the METAs project, it is in layout but the first issue will only contain the first collection of the original 30 slots that people bought. Sorry for the confusion! The other characters will appear in the coming issues, and anyone who bought into the project will receive the first three PDFs free!)

To celebrate the release of the Black Chapter PDF, and upcoming Print on Demand release, we’ve dropped the print on demand price for the original Due Vigilance: The Oktobermen by 4 dollars! That’s right, you can get Due Vigilance Issue 1: The Oktobermen in Print for $9.99 from CreateSpace or RPGNow and Drive-Thru RPG as of now! Check out the special combo deal at RPGNow to get the bundle with the PDF and Hero Lab files for only 4 dollars more than the book!

I’m very pleased to announce the launch of Due Vigilance: Black Chapter! The latest in our series of building-block books for your superhero setting!

Black Chapter introduces the organization “The Library” in great detail, with history, devices, and perks for membership (should your players decide to join)! Also included are 14 fully-statted characters, full-color artwork, cut-and-fold Standees, and adventure hooks for ready-set-go adventure ideas! The titular team “Black Chapter” can be uneasy allies for your players, or challenge them if the Library and the players ever find themselves at cross-purposes. Black Chapter are dark, dangerous mystic agents of the Library, and will let nothing stand between them and their goals!

Written by Jack Norris, Author of Due Vigilance: The Oktobermen, Black Chapter takes up some of the mysterious plot threads left dangling by that earlier product and weaves them into a larger narrative. Artwork by the amazing Alex Williamson highlights the cover and interior illustrations, as well as art by Denise Jones, Jesse Justice, and James Dawsey!

31 pages, full color, jam-packed with mystery, madness, and magic!

Dare you open… the Black Chapter?

Now available through Drive-Thru RPG and Rpgnow! 

Tonight’s podcast is an actual play session of Mutants and Masterminds recorded at AetherCon, an online convention using Roll20.net’s virtual tabletop. The GM is Tolly (“Timeslip” from our Beacon City games), and James Dawsey plays “Bounce.” Join our special guest gamers as we showcase characters from The Challengers as they face off with some dangerous members of Six-Gun! ”

Six-Gun is coming soon, but you can find The Challengers as a free download right now from our RPG store! 

Enjoy the show! Let us know how you like this one compared to the usual approach to our games, I’m curious to see what the difference is between this session and our non-mapped sessions. Thanks again to Tolly for running!

This weekend, join James Dawsey from Vigilance Press and Tolly Gipson (“Timeslip” from our Beacon City Podcasts) for demo games and Q&A sessions at AetherCon! We’ll be promoting the upcoming books Black Chapter and Six Gun!

It’s my first virtual con, I’m really excited! See you guys there!

Check out the virtual tabletop (browser based) at roll20.net and look for info on the con and a program guide at AetherCon’s website!

**Updated** Our Sunday hours have been cancelled (We’re having technical difficulties), and we apologize. Anyone who wants to come see us, please do so by midnight tonight!

Well, slowly but surely this project is nearing completion! We have two colorists working on the project now, and the line art for Issue One is all in!

Once we get the last of the characters in, we’ll just be assembling the layout and getting the PDF together. For those of you who haven’t been waiting for your characters since this project began, we gathered user submissions for publication and are adding professional artwork for each character. The PDF will go live (those who submitted characters will get the first few issues free) and when we have enough pages assembled it’ll go into a compilation of some kind. I’m looking at print on demand in the long run! Anyway, check out the Gallery Page by clicking on the picture to the left, or by clicking here!

We hope to have the first issue ready for PDF publication and a price to announce for it by early 2013!

Tonight’s Actual Play for Mutants and Masterminds 3E contains the 5th episode in our Beacon City Campaign! Will Timeslip escape the clutches of the Oktobermen? Will the other heroes find their friend? What surprise villain from Green Ronin’s Threat Report will make a cameo appearance? Find the answers in this episode!
