About Alternate Realities Publications
Founded in 1992, Alternate Realities Publications was established as a future comic book publisher focusing on manga-styled titles. By 1995, the company had switched gears to become an RPG publisher, starting with the World of Barador, an anime-styled roleplaying game capable of simulating the mechanics of almost any CRPG on the market at the time. After several years in hiatus, the company returned to the RPG market in 2003, with the introduction of their critically acclaimed RPG supplement series, Big Bang: The Mostly Illustrated RPG Guide to Modern Weapons. The company also produces a number of additional product lines, including 1/60 or 30mm scale paper models, experimental projects for a number of licensed game systems, and Lost Destinations, a product series dedicated to telling the strange tales of the modern world while presenting them for game use.

ARP Publishes a Third Basic Hero
Alternate Realities Publications recently released in PDF format the Action Hero. The Action Hero is a basic class focusing on the cinematic feats one typically sees in action movies, presenting those capabilities as talent trees. Joining the Mystic Hero and the Psychic Hero, the Action Hero is the third new basic class we have released. Rather than focusing on an ability score, these three alternative basic classes instead focus on an integral aspect of the game system or genre which are ignored in the six existing basic classes in the core rules. These and other classes we have released in PDF format will be made available in print later this year, as a part of a new book, Modern Kyuujinjouhoushi.

Description: Big Bang details numerous families of weapons, providing game stats for more than 100 weapons in four different game systems. Big Bang differs from other weapon compendiums by presenting such extensive historical and technical details for each weapon that the books are of interest to gun and history afficionadoes as well as regular gamers. Even if stats for your favorite game system are not present, the book presents all the necessary real world data to allow you to generate stats for virtually any game system quickly and easily. Some reviewers have even gone as far as calling it "the roleplaying game equivalent of a Jane's guide to guns". An ongoing series, the eventual goal is to cover virtually every weapon manufactured since 1840, including not only firearms, but also military support weapons like rocket launchers, grenades, field guns, and more.
