Hero! This new Strike Force Bundle guides you through the magnificent multiversal Strike Force four-color superheroic campaign created by tabletop roleplaying game designer (and Star Wars novelist) Aaron Allston (1960-2014).
Across 22 years Aaron ran 260 Strike Force RPG sessions for nearly 50 players, plus hundreds more games in two dozen pulp and superhero spinoff campaigns, all in the "Earth-AU" setting he created for Champions, The Super Roleplaying Game from Hero Games. Having learned lessons about gamemastering a long campaign, Aaron gave practical, table-tested solutions in his landmark 1988 sourcebook Strike Force. The revised and expanded 2016 edition, Aaron Allston's Strike Force from High Rock Press, takes you on a stupendous deep dive into this immense world, assembled by longtime Hero fan and designer Michael Surbrook from thousands of pages of previously unseen material. Many seasoned designers for superhero RPGs offer new and expanded advice to help you on your own decades-long GM journey.
Note: The Strike Force 2016 sourcebook and Organizations require the HERO System Sixth Edition rules or Champions Complete. The latter rulebook is in our companion offer, the revived February 2021 Champions 6E Bundle. If you're new to Champions, start there.
For just US$19.95 you get all eight titles in our Strike Force Collection (retail value $98) as DRM-free ebooks, including Aaron Allston's Strike Force (2016), along with its Denis Loubet Sketchbook, Strike Force Hero Designer Character Pack, and Mutants & Masterminds Hero Lab Files; the brand-new Strike Force Organizations (which debuts in this offer), along with its Organizations Hero Designer Files; and The Strike Force Archives, a gigantic zip file of more than seven thousand documents Aaron produced over the decades. We also include a new facsimile edition of the original 1988 Strike Force sourcebook, complete with Aaron's original manuscript text.
