[WB 20k] The Empress’ Guardians

Leave a reply

Guardians Logo

The Guardians are the ground forces of the Empire.

Why does an Empire bristling with super weapons capable of cracking planets open like eggs need an infantry? Because the Infantry Soldier is, and always will be, the ultimate weapon: You don’t use a meat cleaver to cut out a tumour you use a scalpel.

The average Guardian is far from this subtle but she’s the best the Empress can do. As most wars in the Empire are small counter insurgency affairs Guardians are taught to make the best of their shoddy equipment and fight like tigers whatever nasty scrape they fall into.

Tactically Guardians are about outshooting their enemies. All of their Favoured Weapons are Medium to long range and they gain an additional bonus for using them making them a really nasty bunch of heavily armed battle bitches.

[WB20k] Allegiances

The Empire of Woman is rife with chaotic internal unrest.

As well as the ever present threat of Dissidents the various arms of the Empress’ government do not get on at all and often come to blows on a small scale in various secluded corners that go unwatched by the Quizzers (who often start these conflicts anyway!)

Warbands in Whore’s Blade 20,000 choose their Allegiance at the start of play.

Each Allegiance subtly changes the Warrior Creation process and applies unique tactical strengths and weaknesses to the Warriors in play making their battle plans highly varied.

The Core Rulebook covers the main human factions in play.

At some point I will get round to writing Alien Nations which shall detail the various Alien species and their politics (assuming they aren’t integrated into the Empire’s.)

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.

In Courtesans 20,000 I answered the basic questions about the Setting of the Empire of Woman. It was however quite brief and for good reason.

I had a lot of new rules to cram in and the third, and probably most popular, Alternate Setting was also something of an afterthought.

In the Whore’s Blade 20,000 Rulebook I go into further detail about the Empire. Not just from the context of the Quizzers either.

The Core Rules shall focus on humans the most populous sentient species.

There shall be a future supplement about Aliens but there is enough variety to fill up a Wargame in just human politics both between the Empire’s various power blocs and the various Dissident factions.

So there you have it, the Wargame gives you more detail than the Roleplaying Game… funny that!

The Facebook group is also up (click the image.)

As for the novel itself, well as I shall explain in my later update Whore’s Blade 20,000 has been taking up a bit of time recently but I am a good 40 odd pages in and the plot is really getting going.

Stay tuned peeps!
