Road to Armageddon - Core Rules (Sunset Soldier)
 |
Successfully Kickstarted in October 2015¸ Road to Armageddon is the latest game by well know Space Opera co-author¸ Phillip McGregor
The Sunset Soldier version is one of two¸ the only difference being the cover - the interior contents are the same in both.
The dogs of war have been loosed - the world is facing down nuclear and biological Armageddon between the West and two ruthless power blocs aiming at nothing less than total victory and the complete emasculation and/or destruction of anyone who opposes their cultural dominance.
The struggle between these blocs has been going on for years¸ but has only recently become a hot war... normally called the Three Way War in the west¸ the Anti-Imperialist War in the Russo-Japanese alliance and the New Jihad in the Islamic states... and a nasty one.
Rationing is commonplace¸ consumer goods in short supply or¸ in some cases¸ completely unavailable... even the militaries of the nations involved have begun to suffer from the inability of their damaged national economies to build the needed equipment for their expanding war efforts (or¸ indeed¸ even to repair or replace damaged equipment).
It is against this background that your campaign will be set¸ and in which your players will be running the characters that they create using this rule booklet. They will have the opportunity to defend their nation and its allies and to oppose the fanatical plans of the opposition...
Can they do enough to make a difference?
This book covers the Core Rules - for Character creation¸ combat¸ and for almost all the actions that Characters are likely (and unlikely) to be faced with during the course of a game.
You will also need the Road to Armageddon Gear Book as both Player and GM¸ and the Modern Encounters Book as a GM.
A Print on Demand version is currently being prepared. Anyone who purchases the PDF version before the release of the PoD one will receive a coupon for the latter at a discount over the normal PoD price.
