Coming Soon - Strike Force 7 RuneQuest Edition!

[HyrumOWC]

Strike Force 7 is America's highly trained Anti-terrorist force. Its purpose: To defend the world from the forces of Skorpion; a global conspiracy bent on world conquest!

Inside you'll find everything you need to play as members of America's highly trained Special Missions force. Defend human freedom in the role of the rugged marine, former special ops member, top of his field computer expert, or even the mysterious ninja who now works for Uncle Sam. The adventures are limited only by your imagination!

Everything you need to take on the forces of Skorpion is found in this book, including new backgrounds and professions, as well as new Legendary Abilities and rules for modern weapons!

Look for this in the next week or so.

The MRQ modern rules are surely great, but the theme of the game sucks so much from my petty european eyes that I couldn't spend my money on a product that reeks nationalism so much.

Sorry you didn't like it. It is definitely an homage to the old GI Joe comics and cartoon, which were very US-centric. You could make SF 7 a joint task force of the United Nations and change things to give the world a more global feel.

When i first read the original entry and saw that cover i had to look a my calendar first.

Nope, not april fools day today.

That looks sooooo wrong to me...


I have to stop here. To give that topic more words would make it more important than it is to me.


Cheers

Sounds like a supplement is in order: European special forces.


It's good to see MRQ rules applied to other genres besides sword and sorcery fantasy.

I'll have to wait until payday to buy this, but the idea is good.

It's a shame that people won't buy this because of the subject matter - I'd have thought that a Delta-Force/SAS-style game would have appealed to a lot of people.

Even if it doesn't appeal, a supplement that has some RQ rules for a modern setting can't be a bad idea.

I have to admit this made me think of Team America.

Quite true here. The idea of a modern MRQ is really interesting, even if the setting is less appealing to me. Again, the opinion I gave earlier is purely personal and shouldn't be seen in anyway as a direct attack against OtherWorld Creations.

After second thought, the rules might even be what I need, as I'm planning a Vietnam Horror game (not very original, I know...) in a more or less far future. StrikeForce 7 might just do the trick.

I love the Larry Hama stuff! Seems like a fun game!



any chance for a dead tree version? (Though i'd be just as happy with the PDF.)

A dead tree version will depend on demand for it. There's a little right now, but not enough to justify the print run.

Sorry for resurrecting a dead thread, but if anyone has bought this, can they tell me what the modern rules, weapons and equipment are like? Are the weapons/equipment/new rules Open Game Content?

 

[Lord High Munchkin]

Simon, have you looked at this?

The guns are in the 'hardware' file for download.

There used to be a whole heap of other .PDFs available with a lot more background and setting rules (which I have)—but I'm sure they want one to purchase the book/PDF (which is very good, although Mythos connected).

 

[ozchandler]

thanks for resurrecting the thread. i'd never heard of strikeforce 7 rq till now and looks very interesting

I'd add it to the Demo list myself. Yo Joe. nationalistic or not, looks fun. Besides, I grew up on both sides of the pond. So nothing offends me anyway.

Besides I like the Idea of RQ modern.
