[7:32 PM]Mr.Henrick: This is a free introduction to the Shattered Worlds – Join us on our Reddit Page: https://www.reddit.com/r/Shattered_Worlds_RPG/ Based on the world’s most popular tabletop role-playing game, Shattered Worlds transports the players to a gritty post-apocalyptic setting where technology and magic exist side-by-side. Events, now commonly referred to as a “fracture” broke the veil between the many worlds, exchanging massive slabs of the Earth’s crust with others from the multiverses in the process. But turf wasn’t all that moved between the spheres; numerous plants, animals, and peoples were also uprooted and transplanted into worlds wholly alien to themselves. Then came the “fractures” connecting the Earth to the Abyss, bringing entire armies of demons to ravage the newly discovered lands. The resulting wars between humanity and the demon hordes devastated the Earth as magic and nuclear fire raged. The agents of chaos were finally vanquished, and the last great demon army was destroyed outside of Los Angeles. But Earth’s inhabitants paid an incredibly high price. The wars and resulting nuclear winter in the northern hemisphere resulted in mass starvation and plagues while in the southern hemisphere an economic collapse resulted in the extermination of more than 90% of the world’s population. This collapse of civilization is now known as “the fall”. Twenty-five years later, the world’s climate has begun to recover, and pockets of survivors are venturing forth from the ruins seeking a better life. They are greeted by a shattered landscape that bears little resemblance to the once-green orb known as Earth. Against this backdrop, like pieces on a giant chess board; demons, devils, liches, elves, humans, and others vie for survival and superiority. These factions and many more are destined to become the player’s allies, their nemesis, or possibly both as they explore the war-torn landscape.

[7:33 PM]Mr.Henrick: Hey everyone! My Name is Clive Henrick and I am a Table Top RPG person who been playing games for over 40 years and recently ( about 2 years ago ) made a Table Top RPG LLC called Siegebreaker Games to take some of my ideas and make games

[7:34 PM]Mr.Henrick: For Shattered Worlds, It actually came from my work on 5th Edition of The Morow Project for Timeline Games when I thought of a alternate world that Magic and Tech Mixed in an Aftermath style game

[7:35 PM]Mr.Henrick: By the Way this video I did for the Kickstarter ( which I have not launched yet do to time considerations ) says it all https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t2ZcBEZurMY YouTubeSiegebreaker GamesShattered Worlds Trailer[7:37 PM]Mr.Henrick: I wanted a way to have Tech and Fantasy Races mixed together in a world with somewhat realistic rules for Radiation, Diseases, Economics, etc. The more and more I thought of the concepts of Fractures in time and space, the more and more it started to make sense in a global economic way

[7:38 PM]Mr.Henrick: What would happen if parts of NYC all of a sudden got a Castle with a Litch in it

[7:38 PM]Mr.Henrick: What would happen to economies what would happen when 100,000 wood elves show up in the black forest in germany all of a sudden

[7:39 PM]Mr.Henrick: Or in my case, what happens when the Abysis opens and millions of Demons flood across north Korea and nukes start flying

[7:40 PM]Mr.Henrick: From a Game Design insight, this was a challenge to try and find out whats to balance the complexity of modern weapons with magic and monsters

[7:41 PM]Mr.Henrick: When I picked 5th edition SRD (OGL) I thought I was crazy, but the more and more i worked in the SRD from WOC, the more and more I understood what the designers had done in 5th edition and how easy it was to add “modern” combat and balance it out

[7:42 PM]Mr.Henrick: I have now run Shattered Worlds around 15 or so times at Cons, and so far it takes about 5 mins to cover the updates to 5th Edtion than we are off to the game.

[7:42 PM]Mr.Henrick: (done)
