A new adventure, of sci-fi in origin.

Alright, so I'm going to be running a new game in the relatively nearish future, so here is a set up: I am working a shit ton, and don't have the time to keep creating the world of my amazing DnD. (Check out my DnD blog here.) Instead, to satiate my creative gaming place, I'm making a weird catch all world where multiple sci-fi franchises are represented in some way. It will be set in a somewhat distant future where humanity has a few space colonies, and is certainly more advanced than today, having giant robots. The world is going to mix aspects of Aliens, (Xenomorphs) Predators, (Which I'm naming Predatons to sound somewhat different.) even necromorphs from Dead Space, with the worlds of X-Com, Godzilla, Pacific Rim, with Halo, Stargate, and Star Trek mixed in. Confused? Watch this Honest Trailer for Pacific Rim to get partially the insanity that I'm going for.  There is going to be a lot going on, with the fate of humanity itself on the line. Thankfully, I have a hand in creating the world and back story itself, otherwise there is no way I could manage all of this. This is a general mission statement/what to be looking for to my possible players.

3 basic sizes/styles of combat, Giant Monsters, and Giant Robots to punch to Giant Monsters in the the face!

Human sized, with horribly frightening aliens to face!

Tank and Up class: Whether it is some sort of Exo-suit, battle tank, AC, (Armored core, for those unfamiliar) or a mech, heavily armored large, but no where near giant weaponry, typically for large scale/city scale battles. (These will be the most rare most likely in game play)

The actions of the players will determine the fate of humanity itself... Earth is in a struggle for its survival... and every decision will have consequences...

More details and specifics to come, but let us highlight some of the main stars!

Giant Robots!

Giant Monsters!

Scary old school aliens!

Even more alien types to mix in!

Frightening undead things that make zombies wet themselves!

And an overlord style race to tie it all together in a complicated political/action/horror/sci-fi RPG that spans absolutely anything and everything that my insane mind decides to throw at my players. 

Details on character creation, Giant Robot creation and the general history/timeline of humanity will follow in the future. Stay tuned alien hunters!
