5. The writing team is a heavyweight lineup of RPG champions: you’ll be in the trusted hands of Andy Collins, Erin Roberts, and James Haeck, with me waving them on from the ship’s helm and Shawn Merwin and Joe Raso manning the deck guns. It’s going to be EPIC.

4. It’s classic “High Adventure”. You’ll cross cutlasses on the decks of sinking ships, explore ruined tombs, get sucked down whirlpools, battle more than one moustache-twirling villain, hunt enormous sea monsters, pose as undead, plan an infernal prison break, and even steal a moon from the sky.

This system of exploration is something I’ve been plotting for a long time, and I’m really happy with where we’ve got to with it! It’s essentially mixing very light board game elements into your RPG campaign, while keeping your own stories at its heart.

3. We’re doing some funky things with exploration. At the heart of the campaign is this nonlinear point crawl where you’ll use 'Clue Cards' to guide your journey across a sea map. Your story develops around these cards, at your own pace, and your actions change the makeup of the world in fun ways.

2: It uses the Aetherial Expanse as a "hub" setting. This realm hooked me from the off: an astral sea where rival colonial powers clash over an arcane power source, aetherium. It’s Master and Commander meets Spelljammer meets Arcane meets Pirates of the Caribbean. I love it.

1. It’s a love letter to one of my favourite campaigns of yesteryear, Stormbringer’s ‘Rogue Mistress’ - a madcap heavy metal romp across a bunch of unorthodox worlds, on a magic galleon armed with laser guns. Our campaign has the same drive for big ideas and inventive settings.

Also, never swear in front of a bee.

Right now Rogue Trooper is going strong, Dredd obvs, Dexter appeared in a spinoff based in future Downlode, there was even a one shot the other week featuring Jonny Alpha…

Still churning out the zarjaz thrills!
