About the adventure

Lock yourself into the pilot seat of one of the maddest mech combat Tabletops games ever created! Battle Mechs of unknowable interdimensional power, guns as destructive as stars, and pilots more vicious than the serration of their blades! Lancer is a Mech Combat rules system for Tabletop with a HEAVY focus on customizing your mech for optimum destruction. Live rounds, Laser weapons, Hacking (physical and digital), Weird Mathematical Space Magic, Overdrives, Cascading AI Anime Girls, Cold Fusion Meltdown Management, and more are all available here to help you achieve your mech piloting dreams! The system starts out fairly simple with an easy to use website named COMP/CON that allows you to tinker, upgrade and change your mech's loadout and get it ready for battle. Players will hop onto Roll20 and get into the action on a large hexagrid to fight off other mech pilots and Automated robots alike. This campaign will follow a group of Lancer mercenaries as they make their way through 'The Diaspora'; which is the majority of the disjointed human population spread throughout the galaxy. We'll be going through multiple published narratives for the setting starting with Operation: Solstice Rain.

Additional Details

How to prepare

Creating a Pilot and Mech on COMP/CON, familiarizing themselves with their mech's abilities and weapons, and discussing their builds with the other players.

What I provide

I bring maps, enemies, books, integration with Roll20, and 2 years worth of experience with the system.

Gameplay details

Lancer is primarily about mech combat and the damage and weapons used for that, explicit gory deaths of pilots aren't discussed, but some mechs can self destruct or put the pilots in danger in other ways.
