ACKS Domains at War - Battles (d20)
Tomorrow you will bring the battle to the foe. Tonight you walk among the troops you'll lead. The mercenaries are veterans and sleep while they can¸ but the peasants levied from your lands seek courage in tales of your previous victories. In the cover of darkness¸ you can listen rather than lead. Remember when you were like them? Back when you first entered the dungeon¸ you wielded a sword to fight for gold¸ glory¸ and the favor of the gods. Winning these earned you a throne. Now you wield an army¸ and fight for the right to rule the domains at war.
Domains at War: Battles™ (D@W) is a supplement for Autarch's best-selling Adventure Conqueror King System™ (ACKS). Using the rules herein¸ you can run massive battles between opposing armies using playing pieces on the tabletop. Designed specifically for battles where RPG characters are in command¸ D@W: Battles makes the deeds and decisions of those characters the focus of its gameplay¸ and works hard to integrate their actions into the flow of battle. Built from the same mathematics that power ACKS¸ it generates outcomes like what you'd get if you fought it out on the one-on-one roleplaying scale.
Domains at War: Battles is compatible with any fantasy RPG system that uses twenty-sided dice and shares concepts like hit points and armor class. With Domains at War: Battles¸ we invite RPG gamers to bring the epic scope of pitched battle to their tabletops!
