Welcome to the Core.
Hi, my name is Michael, I'm the current Quantum Architect & Code Cutter for Cybercore.
I'm an almost 50-year-old Dungeon Master and GM. I've been doing this for a long time (That dosn't mean I'm good, it just means I'm old). I Started DM'ing in Primary School back in 1981. I've never charged for my games, though this one time, one of my players gave me $70 to run Dragon Mountain as the next game. So, off we went to The Mountain. That player went off and had a baby, and his shift work changed. Suffice to say, after missing so many sessions, it was clear he wasn't coming back. Then it happened, his Paladin got stuck in the entrance trap with an enormous stone block suspended 1 foot above him in a dropped floor recess, he couldn't get out. Well, there was a centered lever to lift the block—the usual dilemma: do you pull it up or down? One raises the block; the other releases it. One of the players in the party said, "I pull the lever up!" Then, after a pause, "Then I pull it down! Then up again, and down again a few more times for good measure..."
Oh, we laughed and laughed. One less PC for the DM to drag around...
Suffice to to say three years later, we finished the Mountain. I think it took us Three or four years to finish Icewind Dale as well.
Cybercore is not like that.
It's Mission based and Follows the Rule of threes.
Three Ops to a Mission (Get In, Do it, Get Out), Three Mission to an Arc. Three Arcs to a Campaign.
Let's talk about leveling in Cybercore: One Mission = One Level. Ten Missions, you hit Level 10, heroically ending your way out of the game. Maybe.
There's a catch; this is Cybercore—there's always a catch.
That means you will likely play three characters in a Campaign, one for each story Arc. These arcs might be contiguous in time, separated by hundreds, if not thousands of years, or even run simultaneously. Some stories you may even get to play backwards through time. This is a Scifi game, after all.
A Mission can (and should) be completed in a single session or possibly bad things start to happen, like running out of air, your drop ship leaving your ass planet's side etc.
This keeps the game moving forward (or ends it rather quickly), and that's okay because it's built into the system (more on that later). It also means that players can drop in and out of missions "West marches" style, a boon in our rapidly changing lives.
So What is Cybercore? Lets see if we can narrow it down a little.
Intergalactic Heros places you in the boots of the galaxy's most courageous, where your journey is one of heroism, sacrifice, and valor. Here, every operation is a test of your mettle. Every decision could mean life or death for billions, or if not billions, then for you at least. As you traverse the stars, your actions write the annals of galactic history. Will you rise as a beacon of hope or fall as a forgotten hero in the vast expanse?
Eclipsed Expeditions invites you into the shadows of the game, where the line between right and wrong, enemy and ally blurs just a little. Every expedition is a dive into the unknown, a chance to uncover secrets that were meant to stay hidden. While you are doing that, your Techglomerate has given you an agenda. Try not to backstab your friends, at least not on the first mission.
Private Ops: Your corp may give you a "Private Op" on every mission. This is to be kept on the downlow. It won't directly oppose your main mission, as that would be counterproductive. Let's call it "Mission Adjacent."
If you complete your private mission, there are perks! It might be another level or extra training in the form of Corporation or Syndicate Talents.
Here's the catch: this is Cybercore—there's always a catch.
Your Private Operations might be slightly unaligned with some of your teammates' Private Operations. Maybe. I mean, what are the odds of that happening, right?
Let the shenanigans begin...
