Final Week for The Voidrunner’s Codex – Play 5E (and A5E) in Space
EN Publishing’s new Voidrunner’s Codex a game all about 5E and A5E in space, is in its final week! Back now and go to the stars!
EN Publishing’s Voidrunner’s Codex is an ambitious take on bringing 5E and A5E to space. Not just spelljamming, but actual space with starships and lasers and psionic power and all the other stuff that ticks boxes that we associate more with sci-fi than fantasy.
Which is pretty fantastic for me, ecause space is one of my favorite settings for a roleplaying game. And while “the astral sea” is alright, there’s no competing with space. Out there among the stars just feels different. It feels cool. And that’s why I’m excited for the Voidrunner’s Codex.
In the Voidrunner’s Codex, you’ll find rules for piloting starships, use psionics, and all that other sci-fi goodness in one easy ttrpg boxed set, coming up on the end of its crowdfunding!
The Voidrunner’s Codex – Kickstarting Now
The Voidrunner’s Codex is a sci-fi expansion for D&D 5E and Level Up: Advanced 5th Edition, compatible with both rulesets. The boxed set itself contains three different books, the Voidrunner’s Codex itself, which is the hardcover campaign book.
Inside the hardcover book are new classes: the Psion, Scientist, Scout, Psyknight, and Trooper, with new subclasses for each. There’s also new gear, new heritages, rules for hacking and psionics, as well as a set of rules on how to play in a sci-fi setting.
Then there’s the Star Captain’s Manual, which is the big book of starship rules. Whether it’s making your own starships, finding a monster manual’s worth of starships, or, of course, the rules for playing with those starships (whether traveling through space or fighting other people in starships), you’ll have everything you need for space.
Finally there’s a big adventure that introduces the whole suite of concepts of stuff in the Voidrunner’s Codex, so you can see how they function in actual play. In Escape from Death Planet, you’ll escape from a death planet. Find space pirates. Explore derelict space stations. All that kind of thing.
And that’s just the surface. The campaign has been a pretty successful one, but there are still stretch goals to unlock, exclusives to snag, and all that good stuff.
