Welcome to the Eternal City, the home of the Machinations RPG.
Take on the role of an Adventurer, an Alchemist, an Artificer or even a deathless Automaton. Band together with others to form a Free Company and then hire yourselves out to perform acts of sabotage, espionage, assassination, extortion, blackmail or plain old robbery.
All in a world a short step from our own, where reason has been lost, empires exist to be built and strange technology dominates all walks of life. It is a world of sinister intrigue, awful power, terrible events and dark portents. There is also beer, song and glory
Below are the main rules you will need to play in this Steampunk RPG:
Machinations – One Page Steampunk RPG Rules
Machinations – The Eternal City Setting
Machinations – Tools of the Trade
As with all Dead Simple RPG’s the main rules cover but a single side of A4 leaving you to roleplay, not ruleplay.
More supplements are in construction.
Cheers,
Craig.

Hi Ettrick,
Nice work, I shall certainly keep you in mind. Especially if we ever do a compendium version that need a cover and some internal art.
Thanks,
Craig.
Yeah, I was conscious of the one-page format. If it works that you are doing an additional and supplemental part in this, I’d be happy to help. Of course, after seeing this, I read the bit on your Home page that you have an artist in your group.
My deviantArt site is mostly photography, but here’s an image I did for a kid’s story: http://sagunt.deviantart.com/gallery/?offset=48#/d1s2ht8 and a gift for my brother-in-law: http://sagunt.deviantart.com/gallery/?offset=0#/d2gd8tb This is cocnept art from my photobucket account: http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i54/sagunt/Art/IMG_1949.jpg Feel free to browse other sections of both though the dA doesn’t have much more than that. PB has a bunch of concept and sculpt stuff.
Hi Ettrick,
You are very kind. The only problem is the one page format of the rules and its supplements doesn’t leave much room for images.
However, if I were to produce cards depicting the common enemies of the adventurers such illustrations would be very welcome.
Do you have any examples of your work that I could peruse?
Kind regards,
Prof. Craig Cartmell, CDM, DipSO & Bar.
Heya, I just got the Machinations pdf group through Miniature Wargaming. Cheers.
Would you want any photography or sketches to go with your text?
