Wars: Battlefront (ZZZ Unavailable)
 Out Of Stock
In 2391, the solar system is a dangerous place. Three factions of humanity - the Earthers, the Gongen, and the Mavericks - were on the brink of total war when the Mumon Rift split the fabric of space, disgorging a new planet into the solar system. With this new planet, Seyal, came two extrasolar races, fighting their own running battle, bringing centuries of hatred to the new ground of humanity's back yard. These two new races, the Shi and the Quay, threw the powers of the solar system into disarray. The three human factions, unable to forget their own hatreds and grudges, were nonetheless forced to divert some of their attention to the new threats emerging from the Rift. The new arrivals were no more interested in peace than the humans.
Meanwhile, the energy spraying from the Rift itself is saturating the solar system, causing amazing and unpredictable changes in people from every faction, giving rise to the kizen - humans and extrasolars touched by the power of the Mumon Rift, displaying powers and abilities to dwarf those who have not changed. Those who will survive the brutal solar system of Wars will need skill, luck, and courage in large measure. Most of all, they will need information. Which is where this book comes in.
Wars: Battlefront is the first supplementary rulebook for the Wars Roleplaying Game. Intended for the use of both players and game masters, Wars: Battlefront picks up where the core rulebook leaves off. Within these pages, readers will find additional information on the various factions of the Wars universe, offering new insights into the background and culture of each. Kizen abilities, the strange by-product of the Mumon Rift, are amongst the most powerful tools available to player characters in the Wars Roleplaying Game, and Wars: Battlefront offers multiple new trees of kizen powers for those players looking for something new and different for their characters, or even for game masters looking for a new curve ball to throw at the player characters in the form of strange and unexpected abilities for a non-player character. Players looking for ways to expand or diversify their characters' abilities, as well as game masters looking for ways to make the non-player characters even more dangerous and unpredictable, will find a mother lode of information in the sections on prestige classes and class combinations.
Wars: Battlefront goes beyond rules and abilities, however, giving the reader detailed information on the solar system of 2391, offering scientific and background information on each planet in the system, as well as on each of the important moons and asteroids. Here, readers will learn such things as the effects terraforming has had on Venus, the small cities and mining operations buried deep in the ice of Europa, and exactly what it takes to travel back and forth between the planets, moons, and asteroids that make up the enormous battlefield of Wars.
