Description

The Expanse Roleplaying Game brought the thrilling universe of James S.A. Corey's award-winning science fiction novels to the (real and virtual) tabletop in 2019. The Transport Union Edition is the game's new, updated core rulebook, your launch point to adventures among the stars. The Transport Union Edition focuses on the 30-year span between Book 6 (Babylon's Ashes) and Book 7 (Persepolis Rising)--a great time to set RPG campaigns--but the game can be used to tell stories set at any point during the first six novels. This updated core book has all the rules you need to play, from character creation and challenges to technology and spaceship combat. Built on the fast-playing, stunt-powered Adventure Game Engine (AGE) developed for Green Ronin games like Dragon Age, Modern AGE, and Fifth Season Roleplaying, The Expanse RPG includes specialized systems like Apprehension and the Churn to better reflect the feel and pace of the novels. For veterans of the game: the core rules have not changed, and all previous Expanse supplements are fully compatible and remain available. What the Transport Union Edition does is expand the setting following the release of sourcebooks like Beyond the Ring and Sol System and add more rules resources like enhanced augments and new specializations, taking into account five years of player feedback. Whether you are a new or long-time player, the Transport Union Edition is your new gateway to gaming in the universe of The Expanse!
