Mothership: Player's Survival Guide + PDF

Winner Best Game ENnie Awards

 

This rules-lite, pick up and play, high stakes RPG packs more into its 48-page zine style rulebook than most games do in their entire product line. If you like Aliens, Event Horizon, or Dead Space, MOTHERSHIP is for you.

 

Inside you'll find:

 
  • Everything you need to start playing Mothership® today. Play as a Marine, Scientist, Teamster or Android.
  • Simple and fast character creation rules. Everything you need to know is printed right on the character sheet.
  • A cheat sheet of all the rules you need to play. 
  • Landmark layout and product design. No page flipping or hunting for obscure edge-case rules.
  • Flowchart style worksheet for building custom space ships.
  • Groundbreaking Panic & Stress system. Watch your character freak out when the pressure gets too intense.
  • Tons of support. Award winning modules, pamphlet adventures, and a world-class Discord community make this a no brainer for anyone looking to sink their teeth into a meaty game.

COMBINING ORDERS  

Only orders that contain items that are in stock at the time of ordering will be combined, when possible. 

WE DO NOT HOLD ITEMS

Essentially it is the same as above. We adore all of you and strive to give you the best possible customer experience possible but inventory tracking not only for us but for our vendors and partners makes this almost impossible to do now. 

PRE-ORDERED ITEMS

Pre-order dates are subject to change. We get as frustrated as you do when things come up but this happens from time to time. Sometimes circumstances beyond our control will create delays. We try to communicate via social media and our weekly newsletter to keep everyone as up to date as possible. 

All items in an order containing pre-orders will ship with the pre-order item once it is in stock. If you would like the other items earlier, please place a seperate order from the one containing the pre-order. 

We cannot combine pre-orders with existing orders nor combine new orders with existing pre-orders. 

Pre-orders will be exempt from any type of general sale.
