After letting it sit on the backburner for a few years, I finally got Mud + Laser in a state to post. I had the opportunity to run a one-shot of it at Between Two Cons last weekend, and had a blast with it. Truly the biggest barrier to getting anything done has been play: since 2020, I haven't been able to reconvene my old in person group. Anyway! Mud + Laser is a baroque military science fantasy game about partisans fighting in a Great Galactic War against a crumbling interstellar empire. It's inspired by Rogue One, Andor, Dune, and (very roughly!) on 17th and 18th century history. Built on the bones of Mausritter. It has a few unique features including:
Variable armor values based on damage type.
Goal-based XP.
A character upgrade system based on decorations for diagetic achievements.
Currently available exclusively on RPG Trader.
