Hello perspective player! I just stumbled on Steel Rift and have made a lite RP, Living World Arena/Tourney/League server!. It is Play-By-Post, with me handling the map and rulings so that it can be time-zone and time-available agnostic! Players are free to schedule between themselves if they want to resolve a match over Tabletop Sim with me as Arbiter, but no one is reqiured to do that. (Also feel free to send pics of physical minis if you want to use/display them! The system is mini-agnostic for anyone interested in playing Steel Rift locally.) There is 1 change I have made so that its easier to manage as a PbP game (inches to Hex Tiles), and there is currently 1 very simple homebrew added. You wont need to buy a copy of the rules, as I have them available on the server. Advanced Rules will be added over time, both to not overwhelm players but also so I can cherry pick what works with the League and missions that I will present players with (and to a lesser extent the flimsy lore I have for this game-world). Players will be a General Purpose Administrator/Logistics A.I., usually manufactured and purchased by Militaries and MegaCorps for admin work on large vessels and in company-cities. In this case though, the players have been purchased by an Underboss of a Redlight planet. They'll be placed in control of the crime faction's Blood Sport Assets in the burgeoning, new Mecha Coliseums popping up all around the seedy ecumenopolis. You'll put together HE-Vs and teams and enter them into Bouts, Tournaments, Leagues, etc. Obtain purses and prizes from wins, bet on other player's matches for side profit, and go Rogue to get out from under the crime boss's thumb! Eventually players will be able to accept contracts off world for MegaCorps and Sovereignties (ala BattleTech style) and will be able to flex more of the mission types and advanced rules over time. I'm running it via a purpose made Discord server and using Tabletop Sim purely so the maps and models will be a bit more exciting than a 2d, top-town grid. There is currently only 1 mechanical roll tied to Roleplay itself (subject to change depending on what players decide to get up to). You can always hit me with ideas and things you'd like to see that we can work together to make happen! If anyone is interested feel free to DM me and ask any questions you might have! A final note: The game is tagged as 18+, please respect that. And if any player has a concern about anything (including regarding me) please feel empowered to bring it to my attention so it can be resolved!

Welcome, travelers and adventures! We are searching for those who have been held against their will and done things they wish they hadn't for the hierarchy. We are searching for all those willing to begin the process and aid in any way you can. I can't give many specific plot details yet as we are looking to surprise our enemies and catch them off guard following their demise. We are an 18+ only group playing through discord using the rules from D&D 5e and 5.5e with good leniency with homebrew. We, as the DMs, like giving out powerful items, but power only comes from those willing to take risk for it. What will you do for power?  We tend to run small quests to enable our players to get better gear, take risks, and develop their characters. Everything you do will guide the story/campaign, even when adventuring in a non-essential quest. Team collaboration will be essential for your survival and the survival of others. We invite those who live in the US timezones and near (i.e. those in Canadian timezones outside of US are welcome) it helps with scheduling and reducing conflicts within our time. Unfortunately for those in other continents, like those in Europe, we are not partial to the time difference. This is an 18+ group and there are dark themes that can be triggering for certain people.  We hope to see you there and can't wait to begin adventuring!  DM ME FOR SERVER LINK
