Free League Publishing has launched a Kickstarter for their third and final Mutant: Year Zero stand alone roleplaying expansion. Mutant: Year Zero – Elysium tells the tale of humanity’s final collapse, decades after being forced to abandon an irradiated surface world. The crowdfunding project is over 700% funded and you can reserve the 200+ page corebook (and unlocked stretch goals) in PDF for a $28.00 pledge or add in the physical hardcover book (plus PDF and unlocked stretch goals) for a $39.00 pledge. The kickstarter runs through December 13th with an expected delivery date of April of next year.
From Free League:
When humanity falls, when nations and authorities collapse, only the most basic human bond remains – family. While the world burns, the powerful industrial and financial dynasties Warburg, Zubov, Kruger, and Kilgore form a covenant called Elysium, after the meadows of eternal Spring of Greek mythology. Deep down in the bedrock, they build the enclave named Elysium I, designed to weather the long atomic winter.
Decades later, after the devastating Enclave Wars, Elysium I is a gilded prison, a lonely outpost in a sea of quiet destruction. Within the enclave’s dim halls, fear and suspicion grow unchecked. The Houses turn on each other, and after a violent confrontation, the heads of the four ruling Houses create a force of judicators, with the authority to strike against anything that threatens law and order in the enclave.
You are one of these judicators. Alongside agents from the other Houses, it is your duty to investigate any misdeeds. But never forget that your strongest loyalty is always towards your family. You are the true heirs of doom. The enclave is in decline, and you must struggle to ensure that your House gains influence over the dwindling resources that remain. When humanity sets foot on the surface again, it will be your House that leads the way into the new dawn. Your family.
This is the third major expansion to Mutant: Year Zero, the award-winning postapocalyptic tabletop roleplaying game by Free League Publishing.
But Mutant: Elysium is no mere supplement – it stands on its own and can be played as a complete game in its own right. Get ready for the final fall of humanity!
