QLI/RPGRealms Announces David Weber's Honor Harrington Adventures: Roleplaying in the Honorverse!
Often touted as Horatio Hornblower in Space, the Honor Harrington novel series by bestselling author David Weber introduces readers to a vast universe of epic struggle, conflict, and intrigue where even a single woman can make a difference as long as she maintains her personal honor. With the David Weber’s Honor Harrington Adventures line, fans around the world will be able to create and enjoy their own adventures in this incredible universe.
The Honor Harrington Adventures line will build upon QLI’s popular Traveller20 ruleset, using the rules already available in the Traveller’s Handbook to form the foundations for play. The initial Honor Harrington core book, due out late summer 2004, will provide gamers and Honor fans in general a detailed look at the ‘Honorverse’. Players will be able to take on the role of members in Her Majesty’s Royal Manticoran Navy, ply the dangerous trade lanes of the Silesian Confederation as a merchant, or even take on the part of the enemy and plot the eventual downfall of the Star Kingdom of Manticore as a team of foreign agents working deep undercover.
The Honor Harrington Adventures line was licensed to QLI by Echo Valley Entertainment, a Los Angeles based production company currently developing the Honor Harrington series for theatrical release. “After reviewing QLI’s Traveller Game and consulting with David Weber, we were convinced that QLI was the best organization and had the best system to adapt the series to a RPG format,” said Mark McDermitt, president of EVE, and Chris Roensch, the producer of the Honor Harrington Adventures film. “Traveller and Honor Harrington are a near perfect fit” states QLI President Hunter Gordon. “The fundamental concepts behind the various Traveller systems and the Honor Harrington universe are very similar, harkening to a classic wet navy approach to naval operations in the far future. By using Traveller as our core, we can concentrate on presenting the setting to the fans which is ultimately what the game is all about.”
QuikLink Interactive (QLI), based in Georgia, is best known for its T20 game, an adaptation of the award-winning Traveller RPG for the d20 system. QLI publishes Traveller under license from Far Future Enterprises. Honor Harrington is one of a series of licensed products to be released by QLI for use with their T20 roleplaying rules. Other licenses include a sourcebook for John Ringo’s Posleen War series. For more information please visit our websites: http://www.RPGRealms.com and http://www.TravellerRPG.com.
