MechWarrior's Guide to Solaris VII
Sarna News
Description
The MechWarrior's Guide to Solaris VII is an expansion for MechWarrior: Third Edition. The book includes new traits and skills that are appropriate to the Game World. It also provides for characters who want to be a part of ComStar, the Word of Blake, or one of the many Chaos March powers, along with the attendant life paths and affiliations to make that possible.
MechWarrior's Guide to Solaris VII includes a section on integrating 'Mech-scale combat into the RPG rules, rather than the other way around as the core book provides for. This makes for more engaging one-on-one duels, especially on Solaris VII, for which the book also provides a history and information to help characters and gamemasters navigate the world. The book also gives GMs with rules to help them run games set on the Game World, and finally provides them with a scenario ("First Impressions") to help introduce players to the world.
