Airship Pirates: Underneath the Lamplight PDF on sale now!
Underneath the Lamplight – The Neovictorian Sourcebook for Airship Pirates is now available to buy in PDF at RPGNow. The print & PDF bundle is available from the C7 store now!
Under the dull lamplight, in eternal stasis, lies the Neovictorian world.
Trapped in great cities, crafted more like prisons than homes, live the survivors of the Great Rectification. They toil under the shadow of the Change Cage, forever told they are the lucky ones. They alone have been saved from an outside world now ruled by terrifying beasts. There is only death beyond the walls of the seventeen great Change Cage cities.
Inside the cities, the byzantine Administration rules the population with absolute authority. It roots out dissidence with an iron hand, turning neighbour against neighbour in its search for nonconformists and rebels.
But within these cities there is a faint strand of hope. Some understand the truth and fight the authority of the Administration. Some fight against the stratified society and seek an end to the eternal stasis. Some even dare to attempt escape…
Within this book you will find:
A 240 page, black and white, softcover, in depth look at life in the Neovictorian world, including the attitudes, traditions, fashions, religion and lifestyles of each of the classes.
- A gazetteer of the seventeen Change Cage cities across the world, each with their own secrets and lies to protect, including a detailed guide to the city of Desolation.

We're full of hot air and we're starting to rise
We're the terror of the skies but a danger to ourselves

Abney Park’s “Airship Pirates” RPG Sneak Preview
Cakebread & Walton have just released a super sneak preview of the upcoming 'Airship Pirates' RPG based upon the worlds and music of legendary steampunk band Abney Park. Abney Park's very own Captain Robert has been looking after the graphic design and layout himself and has done a stunning job, as we hope you'll agree when you see the preview and the finished book this August.
The preview is a sample 6 pages and still a work in progress, so please ignore any 'page xx's' as they'll be removed in the final version.
So without further ado please click on the cover to take you to the preview site!
