Dragon Reactor

Your dragon screams; it yearns for war

Dragon Reactor is a mythopoetic mech tragedy game about conflict on a grand scale. It’s about warring governments, rising rebellions, slowly-waking god-machines, and the effects forever-wars have on those involved.

It’s about the ever-turning wheel of time, and how we’re always racing against it. It’s about wanting to do the right thing, but having to pull the trigger instead.

Players take on the role of pilots who have fallen into possession of the most powerful war machines in the world. What will you do with all that power?

• Build your world, then fight for it. Rather than building something you’ve seen time and time again, Dragon Reactor guides you through the creation of your own unique setting for stories that hit home for your group. No matter when or where you are, war is coming.
  
  
• Dragons, Rivals, and Anchors. From the giant war machine you pilot to the people who drive you forward, the connections your Pilots have to other characters in the world are not just key to your stories, but also to your character advancement and every single session of play.
  
  
• Manage your resources as you push for victory. Each mechanic is a finely-tuned machine that strikes a delicate balance between crunchy inter-connected systems, lighter mechanics inspired by story games, and resource management that makes every decision matter.
  
  
• Fight against inevitable DOOM. Every story ends, and in Dragon Reactor that end is given a strict countdown. Once the DOOM clock fills, your story’s unique end comes to pass. Will you be able to stop it?

Required for play:

• 2 or more players, with one acting as the Poet and the others acting as Pilots
• A handful of six-sided dice (d6) per player
