Project Update: May 2025 Monthly Update
Two quick things to tell you about this month. We'll get to our regular monthly update, but first I wanna let you know about your best source for information an all of our anticipated Trinity Continuum projects - Onyx Path's annual virtual gaming convention!
Onyx Path Virtual Gaming Convention 2025 is just around the corner! As they enter the final weeks of preparation, the schedule is settling in. Some panels and actual plays needed minor tweaks, which is normal for this stage of the game. People’s availability shifts and schedule issues bubble up, but so far they’ve been able to roll with the punches pretty easily and are on track for a smooth, fun, and informative show!
They’re also getting games for attendees to play ramped up via Startplaying.games. There are already a few games set up, and your encouraged to consider setting one up yourself, if you like running games! It’s a great opportunity to try out games you might not otherwise get the chance to, meet new players, and make a few bucks. Onyx Path's partners at Envoy who run convention games for them will also be running games via Startplaying.games and those entries will be showing up very soon at https://startplaying.games/event/onyx-path-2025!

FINAL 48 HOURS
In Trinity Continuum: Steam Wars, your player characters are the crewmembers of a war rig, venturing into battles against people from far off countries, aligned to ideals different than their own, and trying to preserve their peace, their way of life, or their rich deposits of a new, bizarre energy source: condensed coal. Your characters — the crewmembers of these war rigs — are as likely to be enlisted crooks as they are commissioned officers; gung-ho patriots as common as conscripted people from the imperial powers’ colonies. They fight because they have to. But in the fear and fog of battle, bonds form, friendships and rivalries grow, and legends are made.
Trinity Continuum: Steam Wars takes place outside the Trinity Continuum's "Alpha" timeline -- the worlds explored from Aegis to Æon -- taking place in a parallel reality, setting the stage for new adventures and discoveries.
- A complete setting based on the acclaimed graphic novel Steam Wars® with writing by Larry Blamire.
- Detailed rules on piloting, managing, and fighting massive coal-powered giant war rigs in a parallel 19th century.
- Six different roles you can perform on a steam rig, along with more than half a dozen Alliances involving in the Second Steam War that you can fight, ally with, or sabotage.
- Storyguide advice, secrets, hooks, and plots, to enable you to start your game of Trinity Continuum: Steam Wars

Project Update: January 2025 Monthly Update
We start off regular monthly updates for 2025 in pretty standard form. We'll review our rewards still pending, we'll confirm which rewards have been distribued, and we'll have links to find more information, to discuss this project and the Trinity Continuum, notes on how to contact me, and a look ahead at our next project.
Rewards Still Pending
The world of manufacturing is a little chaotic right now, with pricing and timing all up in the air. The Onyx Path team continues to work on locking down the details for our hardcover print run and finishing up the Storyguide Screen to get those ready as well. I don't know when things will make sense again, but we'll continue to track in our monthly updates.
It is good to see our Stretch Goal companion book slotting into the first draft stage! Hopefully that will move quickly and we can share some previews of the contents as they become availble.
