''But IrTech has kept a secret through the long decades of peace: a fully functional ''Marauder II'' production line hidden away from the Republic’s auditors and enforcers. In late 3133, however, that secret got out. With the Republic already torn by factional strife, the revelation of IrTech’s deception has everyone scrambling to win the prize. Who will emerge victorious from this all-out faction war?'' '''''Dark Age Turning Points: Irian''' uses Chaos Campaign rules and gives players the option of fighting individual battles, following a campaign arc, inserting it into their own campaigns and even creating their own scenarios with optional rules to give their games an “Irian flavor.” The ebook includes a detailed map of the world of Irian, a run down of the forces involved in the conflict, and several tracks that players can use to run simple lance-on-lance battles, or stage up to a world-wide invasion. Only the players’ imaginations are the limits.''}} ==Contents== * "Words but a Whisper" * Map of Irian * Description of Irian * The Vega Campaign * Random Assignment Table * Campaign * Combatants : [[The Scourge]], ([[Bannson's Raiders]]) - Splinter Faction : [[The_Brotherhood|Brotherhood Regiment]], ([[Dragon's Fury]]) - Splinter Faction : [[Republican Guards (Northwind Highlanders)|Republican Guards]], ([[Northwind Highlanders]]) : [[Purifiers (Spirit Cats)|Purifiers]], ([[Spirit Cats]]) - Splinter Faction : [[Crusaders (Steel Wolves)|Crusaders]], ([[Steel Wolves]]) - Splinter Faction : [[Archon Shield]],([[Stormhammers]]) - Splinter Faction : [[Swordsworn#Prince.27s_Men|Prince's Men]], ([[Swordsworn]]) - Splinter Faction : [[Irian Republic Standing Guard]], Planetary Militia : [[Irian Technologies Security]], ([[Irian Technologies]]) : [[Irian Planetary Defense Force]] : [[Wolf Hunters]] - Mercenary Force * Tracks : Sharp and Frosty Morning : Moral Melee : In Neat Little Rows : Lord of the Hills : An Overwhelming Responsibility : Stick The Landing : The Elastic Retreat : Fit to Fight : The Failing Light Illuminates : Animal Deals : The Hour of Judgement Draweth Near : Shadows of the Water * Record Sheets : [[Ibex RV#Variants|Ibex RV (Militarized Gauss)]] : [[Inquisitor II (SecurityMech)|ITW-200 ''Inquistitor II'']] : [[Marauder II#Varants|MAD-6S ''Marauder II'']] : [[Prairie Schooner (Tractor)|Prairie Schooner]] - Tractor : [[Prairie Schooner (Module)|Prairie Schooner Module]] - Trailer * Four page BattleForce 2 map of Irian ==Notes== Unlike other sourcebooks, ''Turning Points: Irian'' lacks an explicit table of contents.
