Zozer Games Cepheus Universal

[Timerover51]

For those who like H. Beam Piper's Paratime series, Cepheus Universal by Zozer Games is a good buy. Paul makes provision for Time Travel to parallel time lines, which is perfect for the Paratime series. Move Pennsylvania State Police Corporal Calvin Morrison to an alternate Pennsylvania or have Verkan Vall of the Paratime Police pay a visit. Check out the Paratime stories online and get some ideas. Or for even more fun, have them cross timelines and find themselves on the Starship Warden of Metamorphosis Alpha, with a massive range of weapons and technology. Space: 1889 would also be a great place to have fun with totally surprised characters.

I am looking forward to it being available in PoD as well as PDF.

I find myself checking the Zozer C.U. web page on a daily basis in order to catch the availability of PoD as soon as possible. I should not be this eager to get my hands on this rules set.

How is this version "better" or "different" from previous versions of the core rules, besides better artwork

Here is a link to Mr. Elliot's page for this book:

I broke down and bought the pdf from DTRPG. I am liking it a lot, thinking it may well be the version of "Traveller" that I've wanted since I bought the LBBs in their little black box back in 1978.

 

[ThornPlutonius]

From a conversation with Mr. Elliot, it looks like at least two weeks before the physical book will be available. Other obligations are interfering with his ability to review the latest test print.

I will by buying pod it the day it goes live.

Likewise, especially since reading the pdf is fanning my excitement, not dampening it. (And now off to pointlessly reload the page...)

 

[ThornPlutonius]

Ordered! Now, to wait the 10-12 days that Lulu will take to get the books (CU and CU Player's Guide) to me.

 

[mike wightman]

Still no drivethry pod option, so it is on its way from Lulu...

Zozer tends to not use DTRPG for PoD. I think Mr. Elliot prefers Lulu's production and only uses DTRPG for pdf delivery.

Good to know.

 

[mike wightman]

And it arrived today.

very nice book indeed.

I've started reading the PDF and I really like what I see. Brings up lots of ideas and possibilities. I'll probably buy a physical book as well. Is the author on this forum? Where should I send typos to?

In the past I have reported typos via the review process on DriveThru. Haven't found any other avenue

Ok thanks! I'll use that then.

Would recommend going to their Discord server. Discord is where most conversation takes place these days (for a lot of the Cepheus-based publishers actually).
