Warhammer 40,000

Eclipse Phase is a detailed science-fiction exploration of uncertain futures. It investigates the nature of transhumanity as it transforms itself, physically and mentally, into something posthuman. It balances the immense dangers of advanced technologies with a vision of how we can negate these risks and enhance our capabilities to improve and prosper as a species. Description Transhumanity stands on the terminus of evolution and extinction. With the ability to upload our minds and nanofabricate almost anything, death and scarcity were nearly defeated. Then a war against super-intelligent AIs infected with an alien virus wiped out 95% of the population. Earth is a ruined wasteland, overrun by machines. The remnants of transhumanity—bio-engineered humans, uplifted animals, and infolife—expanded throughout the Solar System. The AIs left behind a network of wormhole gates that we now use to explore and occupy distant exoplanets. A new cabal of hypercorps and oligarchs seek to preserve outmoded political and economic systems, while patchwork factions of radical scientists and techno-anarchists experiment with new social models, from each according to their imagination and to each according to their need. /images/general-media/1779972799_ox7h9OdI.jpg Characters switch their bodies—called a morphs—at will. Choose from genetically-modified transhumans, synthetic robotic shells, uplifted animals, or digital infomorphs, optimizing your capabilities for specific missions. Your character’s mind and memories are backed up and can be restored if you die—a built-in system of “save points” and functional immortality. Characters are skill-based, with no classes, so players can customize their team roles and specialize in fields of their choosing. A package-buy system enables quick character creation and customization while also defining elements of your character’s background. Gear and morph tracking is simplified with the use of gear packs and points for each mission.

Mothership is an action-packed mixture of sci-fi and horror themes, combined into a streamlined gaming system about surviving in the cold, deadly vacuum of space while everything around you is trying to kill you. All at the same time as you are fighting (or fleeing from) alien creatures who aren't there to make any new friends. Chaos. It was published by Tuesday Knight Games and released in 2024.  It is a survival horror system designed for one-shots and campaigns, inspired by classics like Alien, Event Horizon, and Pandorum. Famous for its streamlined ruleset and award-winning graphic design that prioritizes ease of use at the table. The game, at the same time simplistic and streamlined in design, will challenge the characters at all times, allowing the game to focus on the storytelling and less on having complicated rules. The system it is inspired by is Old School Renaissance Description In Mothership, players take on the roles of blue collar workers in space, such as Teamsters, Scientists, Androids, and Marines. You are not powerful or heroic soldiers; you are vulnerable humans trapped in high pressure environments with alien monsters, failing life support systems and the crushing weight of corporate greed. The game is designed to be fast-paced and unforgiving, where the primary goal is not to win, but often enough - to survive. System Overview & Key Features d100 Percentile Resolution In the core of the game system is the d100 percentile system. Roll two d10 dice and get a number from 00 to 99. Success means rolling a lower result than your character's appropriate stat or skill for the task. Rolling a double, like 11, 22, or 33, is considered a critical success if it succeeds or a critical failure if it fails. Rolling low is the target for survival. Stress and Panic As characters encounter horrors or suffer trauma, they accumulate Stress. When a character experiences a terrifying event or rolls a critical failure they must make a Panic Check. The more Stress they have, the more likely they are to suffer a catastrophic mental breakdown, ranging from a heart attack to a violent psychotic break. The Save System Instead of a long list of saving throws, characters have four primary Saves: Sanity, Fear, Body, and Armor. These are used to resist different types of potential trauma. Fear saves are rolled to keep your cool under pressure, while Sanity saves represent your ability to process alien truths without losing your mind (think lovecraftian horrors). Class Based Skills The game features four distinct classes. Marines are obviously combat focused, Teamsters are pilots and laborers, Scientists are experts in medicine and biology, and Androids are cold calculating, yet efficient machines. Each class has it's unique starting stats and specific triggers for when they gain or lose Stress, which is based on their personality. Lethal Combat and Healing Combat is extremely dangerous and often a last resort. Weapons are likely to deal potentially excessive damage when compared to a character's total healthpool. Healing will be slow and require resources that are hard to come by in the middle of the constant crisis, making every injury feel like a significant threat to the character's chances of making it out alive. Deadly Ship-to-Ship Combat The game includes a streamlined system for starship encounters. Ships have their own stats and modules that are likely to be damaged during a fight. Players must work together to manage various roles and stations, like Engineering or Piloting, to keep the ship's hull from breaching while under fire or fleeing from cosmic anomalies.

Aethera VTT is a browser-based virtual tabletop for game masters and groups playing tabletop role-playing games online. Hosts create campaigns, upload maps, place tokens, and invite players with a link. No separate tabletop application, browser plugin, or server setup is required. Scenes bring together still or animated maps, grids, walls, dynamic lighting, and fog of war. GMs can organize actors, items, and journals, keep notes private, and choose what players can see or control. During an encounter, the tabletop provides token movement, distance measurement, initiative, conditions, and shared dice rolls in chat. Audio playlists and sound zones add atmosphere, with Aethera Voice available for linked live voice. The tabletop is system-agnostic by design. Its system manifests define actor and item types, character-sheet templates, and roll formulas; systems and sheet modules are managed within the application. Hosting starts on a free plan with full campaigns and invitations, 2 GB of asset storage, and a 40 MB limit per file. Players join using their own free Aethera accounts and do not need a paid plan. Optional paid host plans provide more storage, larger uploads, and advanced configuration. A public demo can be explored without signing in. The product website includes a player quickstart, GM guides, map requirements, and plan details, so groups can try the workflow and check its limits before moving a campaign.

Recap Raven is a Discord bot that records Dungeons & Dragons and other tabletop roleplaying sessions and automatically transforms them into detailed, organised campaign notes. It is designed for groups that play over Discord and want to preserve everything that happened withoutasking a player or Game Master to spend the session taking notes. Description With the table’s consent, Recap Raven joins a Discord voice channel and records the game while everyone plays normally. When the session ends, it transcribes the conversation and creates a structured, player-safe recap covering important story events, character decisions, NPC interactions, locations, discoveries, combat encounters, items, clues, quest progress, memorable moments, and unresolved story threads. Recap Raven also creates private notes and preparation context for the GM. Player-facing information is kept separate from hidden knowledge, future plans, secrets, and other GM-only material. These private tools help the GM remember improvised NPCs and locations, review important player choices, track outstanding hooks, and prepare for the directions the party might take next. Every completed session contributes to a searchable campaign memory. Players and GMs can ask questions such as who possessed a particular item, what an NPC promised the party, where an event occurred, which quests remain unresolved, or what happened during a missed session. Recap Raven answers using evidence from the original session transcript, making it possible to verify where campaign information came from. The bot is suitable for long-running campaigns, short adventures, and groups whose session notes have become scattered across Discord messages, documents, notebooks, and memories. Its catch-up summaries also help absent players return to the game without requiring another member of the group to explain the entire previous session. Recap Raven works with Dungeons & Dragons, Pathfinder, Daggerheart, Call of Cthulhu, and other TTRPG systems played through Discord. It allows players to concentrate on roleplaying and storytelling while giving the whole table a campaign record that becomes more useful with every session.

Lore Warden is a battle chronicle tool for tabletop wargamers. After a game, players record the essentials: who fought, the forces involved, the score, which units were destroyed and the MVP.Lore Warden writes the engagement up as a piece of prose they can keep, share, and have read aloud. It is deliberately system-agnostic. Faction and unit names are free text and are echoed back exactly as they were typed, so it serves 40k, Age of Sigmar, Necromunda, Mordheim, historicals, BattleTech or a homebrewed ruleset equally. Army lists can be pasted in whole and unit names are picked out automatically, and added/edited manually. There are three ways to use it. A single battle produces one self-contained tale. A tournament tracks rounds, wins, draws, losses and total points, with Swiss pairings and a recap for each round. An eternal war is an ongoing group campaign, where forces evolve over months, eras are marked, retired armies are given a final entry and honours ledger, and the whole thing can be brought to a close with a finale when the group wants an ending. What separates it from pasting a game into a general chatbot is continuity. Lore Warden holds each commander's force and everything that has already happened to it, so a campaign reads as one narrative rather than a series of unconnected write-ups, and it does not invent units that were never on the table. Commanders who would rather write their own account can do that instead and still have it recited. Opponents do not need accounts. A battle can be shared by code or QR for the other player to attach their force, or entered on their behalf as a guest, and every finished tale gets a public page that anyone can read or listen to without signing up.  Written tales are free, thirty of them, for the lifetime of the account, along with one spoken recital. A subscription lifts the written cap and adds a monthly allowance of spoken recitals.
