I really like this system and the setting is awesome, but I don't have a lot of time to create my own adventures for it only have maybe hrs of free time per week and typically of that is game-time.
I'd really like to introduce my players to it, but I don't want to do that knowing there is only a few hours at most of material available to play. I am certainly keen to write more for Age of Steel. Currenlty I have a gazeteer planned, and also a book of adventure ideas. I hope to have these released in the near future, but I'm not able to say exactly when that will be. In the meantime, there are currently 2 printed adventures for Age of Steel with a total of about 12 hours of play between them depending on how your group interacts with them.
How does this game handle the bean counting elements of many standard RPGs such as HP, encumbrance, weapon ranges, ammunition, movement rates, etc.? Or does it forgo them in favour of more recent approaches? Age of Steel is a moderate crunch game: HP called Grit , weapon ranges, ammunition and movement rates are tracked in a traditional sense, but there are no rules for encumbrance. I would always advise gamemasters that the rules are there as guidelines, and any elements of the game you don't want to track can be houseruled if you prefer a simpler game.
Two questions: A what size are the softback PoDs? US Trade 6x9? It's A4, and sadly because it's A4 it can't be printed in hardback something I discovered only after layout was complete.
I might re-layout the book for hardback printing in the future. I'm going to order the pdf which is great for my ipad. If you ever decide to do a small hardback I might pick that up. Thanks for the response even if it wasn't what I was wanting to hear. I realise this is quite a while later, but the PDF is now fully bookmarked. So, after further editing, a good game good better. Would love to see a gazetteer next. Great game - really enjoyed reading it and looking forward to playing it with others.
BUY IT. I will update the preview PDF to include some of the rules chapters. As a brief overview combat works as follows: defender and attacker roll skill checks attacker's firearms vs defenders dodge for example ; if the attacker equals or exceeds the defender's roll they hit. Damage is rolled as a number of d6s which are added together, with damage reduced by the defender's armour.
Some weapons have qualities that increase the number of dice rolled to hit under certain situations. I understand now! It's pages. I will add this to the description. Nigel M. This is a great little game. The system is clear, intuitive and lets you get on with the narrative.
Its in the setting though where this game really excells. The post great war, roaring twenties, dieselpunk combination makes for a rollercoaster of high [ Tom H. A lot of work has been put into the worldbuilding for this game, and it shows.
The systems are relatively simple and accessible for inexperienced players. They are a lot of fun for Hollywood-style play and make the story and player agency the focus wi [ Patrick S.
I was even more happy when i realised that this game has an awesome setting and an easy to grasp traditional system with some advanced modern aspects. The weird, eldritch [ Claire R.

The resources of the planet are to end, the traditions mean nothing anymore. It leads to many wars, one after another - places where one could live in peace and not worry about the fact that he can be shot immediately were almost gone.
The planet was ruined. Years of endless wars almost destroyed countries which we know today. More and more powerful armies were created. The first non-governmental army was called The Opposition.
Its' views were clear enough - its main purpose was to create a new society. Without war, without violence, without tyrants.
