Untold News & Announcements

http://www.purplepawn.com/2011/12/second-lookuntold/

Imagine if all the most interesting parts of the 1800s were slammed together. Early industrialism blends with Gilded Age monopolies. H.G. Wells mixes with Edgar Allen Poe. Tesla, Edison, and Babbage merge with the Pinkertons and colonial politics. All of it maintains an outer facade of Victorian sensibilities, but on any deeper investigation it is as rotten as the worst parts of Jack the Ripper's Whitechapel London. Now take it all, make a civilization out of it, and run that civilization off city-sized power plants that are on the verge of absolute failure.

We just received this message from our printer - FYI!!!

This blanket email is being sent to all Superior POD customers. Our area has experienced severe flooding over the last three days. The shop has experienced flood damage, fortunately nothing severe. Our area is under state of emergency and all roads are closed due to the flooding and high water levels. The shop is closed at the moment. We are in the clean up process of the shop right now and expect to be back on and printing by this evening.

If you have orders in with us please rest assured they will be expedited as quickly as humanly possible. We are monitoring emails during the clean up process and will reply to emails as timely as we are able.

We apologize for this disruption of service.

President, Superior POD

We ask that everyone try and remain patient as SPOD gets back up and on their feet...

Recently, we were featured in a podcast by Paco and the awesome guys over at G*M*S Magazine; which, by the by, is an awesome blog that posts a ton of excellent content: everything from RPGs, to card games, board games and much much more! You should definitely check them out!

Anywho, they asked to sit down with us and chat a little bit about Untold. So we did. And now, you can hear it! So what in the world are you waiting for?!??

Head over there RIGHT now!

(Tell Paco that we sent ya!)

Looking forward to seeing what you can come up with! :)

Once we initially uncovered the secret knowledge that is contained within the archaic pages of Steamfunk, we did not stop there -- we kept on digging. Much to our surprise and delight, we discovered even more secrets of this new and strange world.

We present them now to you: The Lost Pages of Steamfunk! Our first series is dedicated to the lovely and intriguing Eliza Fitzgerald! Eliza is more than just a social debutante, she's also a major "mover and shaker" in the world of Steamfunk! Check out her "Lost Pages" here to find out more information about this engaging and exciting character!

A couple of quick, but cool updates for you today, gang! (Sorry for the silence, but things are UBER BUSY behind the Untold curtain at the moment!!!). First up, check out our newest T-shirt design, which has been posted over at PatchTogether.com - an Untold fan favorite: the Varm! You can get all the details about this cool shirt here: http://www.untoldthegame.com/forum/varm-shirt-patch-together.

This is a fishing expedition! We're looking to see if we have any coders (closet or otherwise) out there among our fans... If you code anything: HTML, CGI, VBscript, Perl, design Apps for iPads, whatever - please post here and let us know what your skills are... :)

Thanks!

The sensational finale of this story revealed!

"We'd finish a lot faster if we could just take a few trees back to base and chop them up," grumbled Cpl. Michaels.

Sgt. Greene just stared squarely into the mildly defiant eyes of the grousing soldier until the corporal shrugged and quietly resumed collecting fallen branches. "Yeah, you do that, and then when it comes to the choice between dragging your broken body or a cord of firewood, I know which one I consider more useful." (more...)

If ya didn't know already, then you should learn today that we actually have an Untold webcomic! That's right! It's called Gearless and it takes place right in the backdrop of our "default" Campaign Setting, Splintered Serenity! It stars a Klik Roller named Derro, a L'na Dawn named Kiern and an Apoc High-bred known only as Black Op!

And, we just posted Page 5 of Gearless - so what are you waiting for?!?! Head on over and check it out now!!
