Play Styles

The Rocketship Empires 1936 book defines two styles of play, Saturday Matinée Cinematic and Tubepunk. Below are the suggested Camapign Qualities to support these play styles.

Saturday Matinée Cinematic (-50 XP)

  • Black and White
  • Fragile Minds (Optional)
  • Hard-Boiled Investigators (If Fragile Minds is in use)
  • Historical (1930 - 1949)
  • Jack-of-All-Trades
  • Legacy of the Ancients (Optional)
  • Loot
  • Soap
  • Spirited
  • Stockpile

Tubepunk (+100 XP, +75 without Fragile Minds)

  • Cash 'n Carry
  • Fragile
  • Fragile Minds (Optional)
  • Historical (1930 - 1949)
  • Legacy of the Ancients (Optional)
  • Loot
  • Soap
  • Thriller
  • Violent

Game Controls interested in exploring the horrors of the Dark should use the Fragile Minds quality from Fragile Minds, with the Saturday Matinée Cinematic style also using the Hard-Boiled Investigators quality. Additionally, those GCs who wish to include Psionics should make use of the Legacy of the Ancients quality from the Shadowforce Archer Worldbook conversion document.

The Allegiance quality from World on Fire is appropriate for both styles. Rocketship Empires games may be Faction, Freelance, or Hybrid as the GC prefers.
