Technocrazy

TechnocracyWith everything else going on — the launch of the Changing Breeds Kickstarter, the two meetings, and then the excitement in the Texas legislature — I completely missed out on posting this as I intended.

Yesterday (June 25th) was the 14th anniversary of the release of the Guide to the Technocracy, one of the favourite books in the Mage lexicon.

If you’re a fan of the Union, please don’t forget to check out the Revised Convention Books, a series started in the early 2000s and being continued now!

Coming soon:

  • Julyish: Convention Book: Syndicate
  • Augustish: Convention Book: Void Engineers

  1. Always been my favourite side in all of WoD. In fact, part of me has always considered the Technocracy a better faction than the Traditions in Mage; Techs are certainly far from angelic (just look at the Syndicate! [lol]), but the Traditions always seemed so selfish and a bit childish in many ways compared to them, especially given the history mentioned in the prologue of the Revised book.

    Having heard M20 will include the system for Technocrat characters; I’m really looking forward to seeing what Phil Brucato et al make of them. 🙂

  2. Happy birthday technies!

    Mage was one of my favorite games of all times, because i thought it was more than a game (in a good sense 😉 ) and technocracy are one of the most compelling factions ever created on white-wolf! waiting eagery for M20 and the convention books!

  3. Hi everyone.

    I agree with vjj, defintely, the Iteration X is outdated, however, I do not think that the answer to this to be “revise” the Iteration X book but to create a new (and possibly even more books in the future as the technology advance) technocracy´s toybox books instead. It would even serve to the purpose of updating not only Iteration X technology but all the conventions “arsenal” (even new psychological methods and statistics techniques, etc.)

    I apologize for my english, I know this not the best.

    • How about an update to the Iteration X book (2.0) as a stretch goal for the upcoming Mage20 KS? Seems like the perfect time to do it.

      • The thing is, we did the new Convention Books specifically because Iteration X stood by itself. If we release a revised revised edition, we have the same problem.

        There are no plans to any more CBs once the current run is complete.
