Take On A New Space: 1889 Adventure With Mercury Sourcebook
May 5, 2018 by brennon
If you like your Pulp Sci-Fi gaming then check out the new Sourcebook & Adventure for Space: 1889, Mercury, by Clockwork Publishing. The new book is now available over on the Modiphius Webstore.
"Because even if the one side of Mercury is dominated by vast hot deserts with lakes filled with molten metals and the other side is a seemingly lifeless waste with its giant glaciers of ice and ammonia, there is still a small strip of land between these two extremes that thrives with life.
This zone where the cold and hot sides meet always stays in the same twilight and at the same temperature—this is the realm of the mighty World River, which spans the whole planet and is a lifeline for the primeval fauna and flora on both river banks."
"This supplement describes everything you need to know to have thrilling adventures on Mercury. Detailed descriptions of the three very different regions, information on inhabitants and visitors of Mercury, interesting locations, or alien (and not always animal) life—this sourcebook offers you a comprehensive survey of the planet."
This sounds like it could be a lot of fun and I like the idea of delving into some more Pulp when it comes to tabletop gaming. You could use this beyond the role-playing experience as well and introduce elements of this into something like 7TV as well.
What do you think?

I have the lovely old core book and a couple of adventures. Never played it though. Certainly tempted by this…
I’ve had the books from the original release of Space 1889. Love it! Great pulpy steampunk adventures have been had.
I am glad that the game is getting some attention again and new books are always welcome.
I’ll be picking this one up for sure.
Sky Galleons of Mars was a great game. The miniatures rules weren’t to bad either
I still have my Sky Galleons of Mars!
Love this setting. First minis I ever bought were the Victorian Adventures.
Sky Galleons
Beastmen of Mars
