Maybe Not The Hardest Sci-fi Per Say, But Definitely More So Than Most Settings. The Reactors Are Based

Maybe not the hardest sci-fi per say, but definitely more so than most settings. The reactors are based on real technology, and the mechs control kinda like a video game, but the paracausal eldritch math creatures that broke time and decided to gift humanity horrors from beyond comprehension™ certainly isnt an exact science

You.

Yes you, the one thinking about running a tabletop game but you're tired of running DND and/or you're fed up with Hasbro's bullshit.

You should run Lancer.

Why?

1. MECHS. It's a hard sci-fi far future setting with space magic powered MECHS.

2. Combat is crunchy but there's also a specific rules-light system for narrative roleplay.

3. ONLY THE DM HAS TO BUY ANYTHING. All the player side materials are 100% FREE.

4. Massif press publishes their own incredible character building site called CompCon. You can even import homebrew!

5. Explicitly inclusive setting. Published adventures have gay and trans characters, PoC characters, etc.

6. Incredible community.

was on break and did a bunch of AC6 renders for myself. this is truly self care

We’re igniting entire atmospheres just to pull a decent hit off the blunt. I am directly responsible for the extinction of, at minimum, 100,000 species of extraterrestrial animals and plants. This shit ain’t nothing to me, man. When they cracked the Massif Vaults open, first thing they found was my ass passed out in the corner, covered in canned sardine juice. Needed an exabyte archive just to remember that I’m them. I’m moving aggressive, playin’ offense, they thought I’d give in to economic and political pressures ‘till I swerved straight through Ras Shamra at .998c. Split the planet like a fuckin’ coconut, should be dead but got sent back on account of I’m a buster. This shit ain’t nothing to me, man.

This had me audibly cackling in the office
