Magitech Mecha vs. Gods, Learn To Play Armour Astir: Advent ⚔️🤖

About the adventure

For too long we have toiled beneath the glare of angels, burning, So raise wrench, blade, lightning-laced dream, And yank upon that chain what pulls down the heavens! A NEW AGE BECKONS, BEND METAL AND STRIKE DOWN THE GODS! In this game, you'll... 🤖 Build, upgrade and pilot giant paladin-ass robots! 🏰 Explore moss-slick ruins, tarnished temples and flattened towns ⚡ Face the immortal machines of the gods, and bring them low! In this game, we'll be playing a fantastic 2d6 indie game called Armour Astir: Advent, where you get to play as pilots and mechanics building incredible, god-killing fantasy mecha. You'll explore and help develop the high-magic, high-tech world of Doven, a realm of theological oppression opposed by patchwork, messy revolutionaries. At the table, I emphasize intricate social relationships, player safety and comfort, and stories that make clear the danger around every corner, but also leave room for levity. Join us, and reclaim what the Gods have stolen! (Art from Godbound by Sine Nomine Publishing)
