BattleTech RPG: A Time of War
the battletech rpg
It is the 31
st
century. Mankind has spread to
the stars and spawned titanic stellar empires,
each controlling hundreds of worlds across a
thousand light years and beyond. Yet the sins
of man have followed him from the cradle of
humanity.
Political machinations of feudal lords plunge
whole sectors into war; unscrupulous merchant
starship captains smuggle weapons to their
own faction’s enemies; greedy military
commanders demand tribute from worlds
they’re protecting; animalistic pirate kings
harvest high technologies and human slaves
in lightning raids; betrayals from oath-bound
allies leave honorable soldiers growing cold on
forgotten worlds; death at the tip of knife from
a concubine turned assassin to avenge a world
and love lost: it is a time of war.
What empire will you swear allegiance to: a
warrior merchant of House Steiner; the honor-
bound samurai of House Kurita; the vat-bred
warriors of the Clans; a mercenary that ights
only for the highest bidder?
Choose your life in the universe: a MechWarrior
piloting the thirty-foot-tall BattleMechs that turn
the tide of any battle; a spy deep behind enemy
lines discovering critical secrets; a merchant
carrying critical supplies; a scientist unleashing
the latest cutting edge technologies?
How will
you
become a legend?
A Time of War
rulebook contains everything you need to start
your adventure in the
BattleTech
universe!
