[WB20k] Features and Bugs

Nurse Tracey

Features and Bugs are minor special rules that allow further customisation of Warriors to make them individuals rather than random grunts.

They cover many areas of the rules changing how Warriors move and fight as well opening up new creative tactical options.

For those of you coming over from the Roleplaying game these abilities are not as powerful as Path Features but they are infinitely more customisable and characterful.

Each Feature costs 10 points to purchase and each Bug refunds 10.

Warriors have 3 slots of each.

[WB20k] Engagement

Warrior Poster (Censored)

Engagement is all about the core of Wargaming: Killing shit!

Engagement begins with the Players taking it in turns to have Warriors declare their Targets.

These Engagements are resolved with Attack Challenges which are typically Aggression versus Aggression unless it is a base to base Melee Engagement in which case it is Grit versus Grit.
The Winner of the Challenge can use her Margin of Success to attempt to Inflict Injury or Close the distance to her Enemy.

Injury uses the tried and tested system from Doxy and Weird and Wonderful.

Cover is a simple bonus to Injury Resistance and Hidden Warriors have the option of making a Pop Up Attack for a bonus to the Attack Challenge.

Falling is treated as an Attack with a Margin of Success equal to the number of Floors fallen.

[Transported] Update

Transportation

I don’t think just making Transported a Supplement will do it justice. It is a unique setting with unique challenges and unique Characters.

Thus Transported will become the 4th History Farce game. It shall play with some of the same mechanics as Doxy but it shall be standalone.

There shall be conversion guides from the other 3 but all Felons will use the rules in Transported rather than their own.

Please do join us for this rollicking adventure!

[WB20k] Cults of the Powers of Darkness

As pathetic as it is when you preach against something, whether it exists or not, hard enough some “radical non-conformist” will start worshiping it.

The Church has been holding up its Powers of Darkness bogeyman for over 10,000 years and during that time it has developed into an underground rival religion.

They profess many Sethian ideas about freedom and scientific supremacy however this is based on the belief that this will give them cool demonic powers rather than an actual belief in science or reason.

Whilst the Church preaches the two factions are in cahoots most Quizzers know that they are highly antagonistic toward each other.

The entire human race may well be capable of great feats of Will through Psychic Powers but fortunately most of the Cultists Attempts to summon demonic doom are complete failures. Nevertheless the Quizzers are pressured by the Empress to waste their time on these suckers!

Cultist Warbands favour cheap and plentiful builds with Standard Issue Weaponry supplemented with the odd Jury Rigged beauty.

Tactics generally involve being numerous and overwhelming smaller, better equipped Warbands.

Kittiwake and Roleplaying Games

Initially I wanted to keep Kittiwake focused on my non Roleplaying products. However I have since reconsidered this position.

It may well be a more niche market than fiction but I think I need all the income I can get.

Thus the following Roleplaying projects will be joining the Kittiwake line up.


The Random Insane Side Projects
including…

CID: Coppers In Disguise, SOE: Sexy Operations Executive, The Ugly Game, In The Shite and Knights of the Realm.

The Doxy Supplement Transported

The Tough Justice Supplements The Case of the Falling Spire and The Big Book of Crooks.

The Courtesans Supplements The Quizzer’s Bulletin, The Landlady’s Guide to Eligible Gentlemen and The Landlady’s Guide to Scandalous Ladies.

Hopefully my other stuff won’t be too harshly impacted by this but I guess I’m a Roleplayer at heart, for the moment at least.

I will still be working with Postmortem Studios on Ultimate Tough Justice, Freaky Doxy and the Shadow World line.

[Scandal Sheets] Meet Miss Sally Sill

Sally Sill Woodcut

Meet Miss Sally Sill, the daring young missionary to the Demi Monde of London, specifically 69 Frothington Road. Her papers, recovered from the private collection of notorious “Moral Crusader” Cecilia LeMonte, naturally focus their detail on her fascinating subjects.

However as she is drawn deeper into the murky world she seeks to save these “poor lost women” from she finds herself changing as a person.

How?

Well you’ll have to wait for the books!
