About the adventure
In a world where ruthless villains plot in the shadows to steal launch codes and bring entire nations to their knees. Where crooks in suits hire personal armies to amass wealth greater than anyone can imagine. Where absolute madmen laugh while playing with human lives, or blackmail the White House with outlandish demands. Only a Hero can save the day. And I’m not talking about a Hero in shining armor. No, we need a real tough guy here. A Hero who faces off alone against dozens of goons and gets off with a dashing cut on their cheek as they look to the camera. The type of hero who walks in slow-mo while everything behind them explodes. Are you a Hero worthy of an action movie? Probably not. I mean, you just look like someone who is two days away from retirement. But don't worry: we'll put you on your path to take care of the bad guys and save the world! Outgunned is a cinematic action RPG inspired by the classics of the genre, from Die Hard to True Lies, passing through James Bond, Atomic Blonde, Kingsman, Ocean’s Eleven, Hot Fuzz, and John Wick. Take on the role of action Heroes facing terrible odds while trying to carry out their mission, be it robbing a casino or saving the day.

About me
About 5+ years ago, my oldest friend introduced me to D&D. Now, I'm ashamed to admit I was one of those who held the "it's a really nerdy game" stigma. But as we kept going with this one-on-one (eventually bringing another friend into it) self-made campaign before we even knew all the rules to the game... I WAS HOOKED. As I continued to play through the years, it became an outlet for me. This only grew as other genre TTRPGs were thrown into the mix like City of Mist, Pirate Borg, or even smaller scale ones like Honey Heist or A Familiar Problem. Finally, it reached the point where I found myself enjoying worldbuilding even more than I did playing. I've always been an imaginative person with a non-stop desire to create stories with emotion, detail, or pure love for narrative worldbuilding. I hope to share many adventures with all of you on this wonderful platform!
