I just want to say that Epiphany was a sadly underrated game. Although I can't be sure how the actual mechanics would have worked in play, I thought the setting itself was wonderful (and could probably slot nicely into a steampunk Verne campaign.)

I also think that Ebon is a remarkably elegant little 2-page rpg. I don't know that it needs expanding at all...but I'd love to see what would result if it was expanded.

The Epiphany setting will eventually get resurrected for EABA v2, though it might fare better with a system like Purgatory Bay has. Ebon was the result of a micro-rpg contest, and I don't think it will ever be expanded. As a matter of financial practicality, I have to stay focused on what I can support, and that's really just EABA, with occasional excursions into unknown territory.

Greg,

Epiphany was released at the wrong time in the industry... back when independents were seldom carried, and before the OGL, and before the major upsurge in both small-site BBS's and narrativist games being socially acceptable. I found CORPS by fluke... and eventually found you online back in the mid 90's...

Really, dropping it back out in PDF would be a good thing, and the BBS would generate probably most of the support it needs. It's not like leaving CORPS on DTRPG is doing you any harm... and Epiphany would be a good one to have out there again/still.
