Victoriana, the popular steampunk fantasy roleplaying game, is getting a major update with the introduction of the new C7d20 system developed by Cubicle 7. The announcement has excited fans of the game, as it promises to bring a fresh and modern take on the Victorian-era setting. Cubicle 7 has also revealed that a Kickstarter campaign for the new edition of Victoriana will be launched later this year.
The upcoming edition of Victoriana will retain compatibility with the widely popular 5th edition of Dungeons & Dragons. However, it will incorporate the C7d20 system, providing players with a new and enhanced gameplay experience. The aim is to introduce the captivating world of Victoriana to a new generation of roleplayers.
Cubicle 7 has been hard at work in recent months, developing several exciting projects. They released Uncharted Journeys, a supplement that offers detailed travel rules for 5th edition Dungeons & Dragons. They also successfully Kickstarted Broken Weave, a post-apocalyptic tragic fantasy setting. Additionally, the company has been working on their own d20-based ruleset, codenamed C7d20.
The C7d20 system is being designed as a complete rule set that embodies the thrilling and action-packed nature of d20 fantasy games. However, it also places a strong emphasis on exploration, investigation, and the quieter moments between adventures. The Cubicle 7 team has outlined a set of guiding principles for C7d20, including freedom, a modern take on classic fantasy, familiarity, evolution, and compatibility with 5e.
The goal of C7d20 is to create a standalone d20-based fantasy roleplaying system that feels both fresh and familiar. It builds upon the foundation of 5th edition D&D, incorporating core elements such as Classes, Species, and rolling a d20. However, it aims to provide a more elegant gaming experience and refine the existing mechanics.
Importantly, C7d20 will maintain compatibility with 5th edition D&D, ensuring that fans of the current edition can seamlessly transition to the new system. A conversion guide will be provided to support players in utilizing their existing 5e content with C7d20.
As the anticipation builds for the Kickstarter campaign and the release of the new edition of Victoriana, fans are eagerly awaiting the chance to explore the steampunk world with the innovative C7d20 system. With the incredible artwork by Clara-Marie Morin showcased in the upcoming edition, it promises to be a visually stunning and captivating gaming experience.
