About the adventure

You are a group of lancers. An elite squad of mech pilots sent into the frontline against an infectious hivemind that seeks to consume all life. Your group has been sent to Verrus to cleanse an infection that controls both flesh and metal equally. As elite lancers, you will collect parts to slowly upgrade your mech as the adventure goes on, becoming stronger and fighting greater threats. Your characters will be leading a front to find the source of this infection and wipe it out. You will have to complete missions to create new fronts against the infection, break into heavily fortified bases to collect information, slay hordes of monsters and overtaken mechs, and slowly upgrade your mech to become an expert pilot. This campaign is mostly focused on the missions and combat, with space for RP. But things like downtime and backstories won't be as heavily emphasized This campaign is designed with new players in mind. Where the many mechanics and aspects of the game will be handled and explained by me.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

The only things a player will need is a working mic and a free forge foundry account.

What Mino brings to the table

I will provide an array of maps, tokens, and sprawling combats that are designed to make the players feel epic. Gameplay will generally be rules as written but if there is space outside of any specific rules I will usually lean in the players favor.

Homebrew rules

No homebrew rules. Since this is an intro it will try to be base game.
