War, war never changes–but roleplaying games do. Modiphius opens up their own Vault-Tec brand shelter for pre-orders of the Fallout tabletop RPG.

That’s right folks, the hit video game series Fallout, which was originally intended to be a GURPS setting, has finally hit the tabletops after traveling through the world of isometric video games, first person shooters, and most recently, a tactical miniatures skirmish game, Fallout Wasteland Warfare.

But the latest iteration from Modiphius is the big one that folks have been waiting for. And no, I don’t mean a hydrogen bomb that ushers in a post-apocalyptic nuclear wasteland world, but rather just the rules for a new 2d20 version of Fallout. What does 2d20 mean, you might be wondering? The 2d20 system is Modiphius’ in-house RPG engine, which combines narrative elements you might find in a Fate style game with the crunch of something a little more traditional, offering a flexible system that can handle everything from the barrel-chested adventures of Conan the Cimmerian to the final frontiers explored in Star Trek Adventures.

Now that rules engine will be powering Fallout, and you can just bet it’ll be an exciting one. Let’s take a look at the book up for pre-order now with shipping expected this summer!

Fallout: The RPG Core Rulebook – $52.35

In 2077, the storm of nuclear war reduced most of the planet to cinders. From the ashes of nuclear devastation, a new civilization will struggle to arise. A civilization you will shape.

How will you re-shape the world? Will you join with a plucky band of survivors to fight off all-comers and carve out your own settlement? Will you team up with pre-existing factions like the Brotherhood of Steel or Super Mutants to enforce your own ideals on the Wasteland? Ghoul or robot, paladin or raider, it’s your choice – and the consequences are yours. Welcome to the Wasteland. Welcome to the world of Fallout.

This 438-page hardbound rulebook features a gorgeous cover design evoking the iconic Vault-Tec jumpsuit.  Inside, you will find rules and lore for roleplaying in the Fallout world, as well as concept art from the Fallout videogames. Utilizing Modiphius’ celebrated 2d20 cinematic role-playing system, the Fallout RPG will take players on an exciting journey into the post-apocalypse!
