WARS Battlefront (d20)
It is a big Solar System¸ too big to be contained in a single rulebook. Though the WARS Rulebook contains everything a Games Master or a player absolutely needs to play a WARS Roleplaying Game campaign¸ Battlefront takes things a few giant leaps further.
Within the pages of this book¸ meant for Games Masters and players alike¸ readers will find a wealth of information to deepen and enrich their WARS campaigns.
Battlefront contains an in-depth look at each of the factions¸ detailing the Earthers¸ Gongen¸ Mavericks¸ Quay and Shi as never before¸ including background and cultural information on each¸ as well as tips and strategies for creating a mixed-faction group of Player Characters.
Those looking for more options and alternatives for characters will find a treasure of new prestige classes and kizen abilities to give Player Characters an extra edge or give Non-Player Characters a few hidden and unpleasant surprises to spring on the Player Characters themselves.
The WARS Roleplaying Game is not bound to a single planet or moon - rather¸ the plotlines and Player Characters tend to range throughout the Solar System. Battlefront offers an enormous section on the Solar System itself¸ detailing the background and physical aspects of each of the planets¸ as well as major moons¸ asteroids and even space stations. From the surface temperature of Mercury to the necessary escape velocity of Charon¸ from the penal colonies of Io to the boomtowns and brush wars of Titan¸ this exhaustively researched section of Battlefront holds all the answers. The section on travel in the Solar System brings it all together¸ giving Games Masters rules and guidelines for determining how long a trip from Earth to Europa will take¸ or how much time is required for a transmission from Gongen to reach Ceres.
Packed with even more information¸ Battlefront is an invaluable addition to any WARS Roleplaying Game campaign.
