Hi guys,
The latest supplement for the Babylon 5 RPG hits the stores this week. No Surrender, No Retreat is the complete guide to the Earth Year 2261, and things are really beginning to hot up. . .
The book kicks off with Personalities of 2261, updating all your favourite characters as they rise in level and experience, as well as providing notes for roleplaying with them and introducing a few new characters. As well as Sheridan, Ivanova and Garibaldi, you will also find Bester, Morden, Number One and Acting President Suzanna Luchenko.
The Galaxy of 2261 forms the meat of the book and provides a comprehensive episode guide, complete with dates so you can move your own campaigns and story arcs to the pacing of the original series (you can imagine Centauri players wondering what is happening back home when they hear rumours their Emperor is mad!). On top of this, we have also included lots of side entries that explain various items and events in the episodes, either with background information or rules so you can include them in your games. Just some of the more eye-catching such entries include Destroying First Ones, Planet Killers, Gaim Warheads, Minbari War Syndrome, The Dreaming, The Starfire Wheel and the Proxima III Task Force.
The Rules Additions chapter provides a place for more comprehensive rules systems that can be introduced throughout 2261. There are complete rules for building a broadcast show (rebel or not), hitchhiking across the galaxy, interrogation techniques, new telepathic abilities, and using organic technology. More exciting are the two new prestige classes we have added. Finally, we can unveil the Shadow Servant and Vorlon Servant! Want to know just what Mr Morden and the Inquisitor are _really_ capable of. . ?
The book winds up with Equipment and Ships, a briefing on the new technology encountered during 2261. These include Centauri Wands, Agony Whips, Drakh Raiders, Drakh Motherships and the Shadow Omega Destroyers of Clark's fleet.
No Surrender, No Retreat is a full colour 128 page sourcebook, priced at $24.95, and is available this week from all good games stores and book shops.
