Description

Turning Points: Orbisonia is the fourth release in the new web exclusive Turning Points PDF series produced by Catalyst Game Labs. It uses the Chaos Campaign rules and provides a campaign setting for players to fight the Battle of Orbisonia between the Capellan Confederation, who is trying to reclaim the storied worlds of the Chesterton Trade League, and the Federated Suns in 2828.

From the Back Cover

“

The Chancellor of the Capellan Confederation ached to reclaim the long-lost worlds of the Chesterton Confederation for her nation, and the outbreak of the Second Succession War gave her the opportunity for invasion. Chancellor Ilsa Liao targeted worlds along a wide front, and personally led one of the most feared formations in Capellan history against Orbisonia. Five bloody days in June 2828 turned the tide of the invasion and changed the Confederation forever. Turning Points: Orbisonia uses Chaos Campaign rules to give players the option of fighting individual battles, following a campaign arc, or inserting Chancellor Ilsa Liao's campaign for Orbisonia into their own campaigns. Included are a detailed map of the world of Orbisonia, full details of the forces involved in the invasion, and scenario tracks that players can use to recreate the battles on Orbisonia. The only limits are the players' imagination!

Notes

• Unlike other sourcebooks, Turning Points: Orbisonia lacks an explicit table of contents. The list shown here was assembled from page headings.
• This product is the first of its kind released in two years. Prior to the reorganization of the Turning Points series, this product would have been noted as a Historical Turning Points due to being released for a previous time period than in which the present canon is set.
• Introduced in this product are two new units, the Orbisonia Planetary Militia and the Chancellor's Guard. In addition, it contains a second fiction piece instead of record sheets for unique units or new variants.
