Foreword
The Beyond Heroes Role Playing Game is based on a heavily revised derivative version
of the rules system from Advanced Dungeons and Dragons 2nd edition. It also makes
extensive use of the optional point buying system as presented in the AD&D Player’s
Option Skills and Powers book. My primary goal was to make this system usable in any
setting, from fantasy to pulp to superhero to science fiction.

While the history and other details about the United Nations presented in this document
represent real-world information as closely as reasonably possible, this pdf ultimately
describes the UN in the Beyond Heroes Universe, a fictitious setting where people and
events aren’t necessarily the same as in the real world. Therefore the UN is going to
differ, too. After all, the real United Nations never had to cope with the likes of inter
dimensional and extraterrestrial invasions.

What came before..

In the previous timeline S.H.A.D.O.W. was a secret military organization conceived by
the security council of the United Nations founded to defend Earth against UFO attacks,
after the first confirmed encounter between the people of Earth and a vehicle of extra-
terrestrial origin. A single attack by another UFO convinced earth that the aliens were
hostile, and that they posed a threat. The international community agreed to work
together and created a secret organization to defend the earth. The organization was
named the Secret Alien Defence Operatives Watchguard.

The interdimensional invasion of 2019 however had major consequences for earth. The
influx of mana and other energies created a mana storm which altered key events in the
past, present and future. In the new timeline S.H.A.D.O.W. was still created but as a non
secretive offshoot of U.N.I.T.T., an entirely new organization. Along with other
suborganizations like I.R.I.I.S., T.S.U.N.A.M.I., M.R.U., U.N.A.K.R.D.F., the Twilight
Corps, and the E.R.D.R.F.

Section 1: The United
Nations Overview
The UN Charter
The foundation upon which the UN was
created is described in the Preamble of
the UN Charter:
We the peoples of the United Nations
determined to save succeeding
generations from the scourge of war,
which twice in our lifetime has brought
untold sorrow to mankind, and
to reaffirm faith in fundamental human
rights, in the dignity and worth of the
human person, in the equal rights of men
and women and of nations large and
small, and to establish conditions under
which justice and respect for the
obligations arising from treaties and
other sources of international law can be
maintained, and to promote social
progress and better standards of life in
larger freedom.
The six clusters that threaten peace and
security today are:
• Economic and social threats, including
poverty, infectious diseases and
environmental degradation
• Inter-State conflict
• Internal conflict, including civil war,
genocide and other large -scale atrocities
• Nuclear, radiological, chemical,
biological, metahuman and supernatural
weapons
• Terrorism
• Transnational organized crime
The UN Charter also begins by affirming
“faith in fundamental human rights, in
the dignity and worth of the human
person, in the equal rights of men and
women and of nations large and small.”
As stated in the UN Charter, the UN
aims “to establish conditions under
which justice and respect for the
obligations arising from treaties and
other sources of international law can be
maintained.” In order to develop and
prosper, human beings must be able to
look to the State for security and
protection and be able to exercise their
individual rights. This cannot happen
without the rule of law. The rule of law
refers to a principle of governance in
which all persons, public and private
institutions, including the State itself, are
accountable to laws that are consistent
with international human rights norms
and standards.
Justice is a vital component of the rule of
law. At the international level, the most
striking development over the past
decade has occurred in the area of
international criminal justice. The
International Tribunals for the former
Yugoslavia and Rwanda established by
the Security Council in 1993 and 1994
respectively marked the first generation
of tribunals since the International
Military Tribunal established in
Nuremberg. They demonstrated the
collective will not to allow grave
violations of international law to go
unpunished.
Many of the poorest countries need
investments to train and employ
qualified personnel to manage
democratic institutions that are vital to
upholding the rule of law. In addition,
good governance requires public
participation in the political process.
This helps guarantee that governments
will be held accountable for their
actions.
Another declared aim of the United
Nations is “to promote social progress
and better standards of life in larger
freedom.” The Economic and Social
11
Council (ECOSOC) is the organ most
associated with achieving this goal. It is
responsible for coordinating the
development mandates of 14 UN
specialized agencies and five regional
commissions. In addition, ECOSOC
consults with academics, business
representatives and more than 2,100
registered non-governmental
organizations. Most people don’t realize
that roughly 70% of the UN system
focuses its work on promoting social
progress and improving the well-being
of people around the world. The main
components of development are:
Living a long and healthy life
Being educated
Having a decent standard of living
Having the freedom to participate in the
life of one’s community
Development cannot occur without the
freedom from misery, hunger, illiteracy
and disease. People who live in extreme
poverty lack choices. Having a decent
standard of living gives us the means to
pursue our desires and dreams. Human
rights come into play when we
acknowledge that everyone should have
the same opportunities to develop their
abilities to the fullest extent.
Development ceases to move forward
when violent conflict erupts, human
rights are violated, or the rule of law is
disregarded. Just as development can be
negatively impacted by conflict, the lack
of development can also lead to war.
The strong link between human rights
and development has figured
prominently in United Nations
deliberations for more than half a
century.
History
After World War II there was a strong
feeling that a way had to be found to
keep peace among nations. The idea for
creating an international organization
dedicated to maintaining peace took hold
during the war. However, it took many
years of planning before the United
Nations actually came into existence.
The United Nations did not come into
existence at the signing of the Charter. In
many countries the Charter had to be
approved by their congresses or
parliaments. It had therefore been
provided that the Charter would come
into force when the Governments of
China, France, Great Britain, the Soviet
Union and the United States and a
majority of the other signatory states had
ratified it and deposited notification to
this effect with the State Department of
the United States. On October 24, 1945,
this condition was fulfilled and the
United Nations came into existence.
Four years of planning and the hope of
many years had materialized in an
international organization designed to
end war and promote peace, justice and
better living for all mankind. The United
Nations is neither a supra-State nor a
government of governments. It does not
have an army and it imposes no taxes. It
depends on the political will of its
Member States to have its decisions put
into action and relies on the
contributions of its Members to carry out
its activities.
The Shattered Realms Invasion
January 1st, 2019 changed everything
with the interdimensional invasion of
earth by the various worlds of the
Shattered Realms.
12
As far back as 1999 Dopplegangers were
inserted into Earth from the Shattered
Realms by Takhisis, replacing key
government officials in each country.
Most often they replaced bureaucrats or
aides, rather than politicians who may
only be in power for a short time.
Eventually by 2019 the Dark Sun
Society felt they were ready to begin the
invasion. The war began with Dis
invading Russia and Krynn invading
India. The opening of the gates created a
mana bridge linking Earth’s biosphere
with that of the invading planet. This
resulted in Earth’s mana levels rising.
Magic casters and the supernatural
everywhere around the world
immediately noticed an increase in their
power levels.
Russia facing the total defeat of its
military nuked the Dis bridge, destroying
the demon army and everything else
within 30 kilometres.
Gates opened on Algeria from Athas,
France from Abeir Toril, China from
Gamma, Australia from Eberron, Canada
from Mystara, the United States from
Oerth, Nicaragua from Aebrynis, Bolivia
from Abysmal, Lemuria from Krule, and
Earth’s Underground from Cthon.
Deep in the Underground an alliance
was formed between Cthon and Earth’s
Drow, Dracotaur, Dvergar, Illithid, and
Vermin. In exchange for being given
their own countries to rule on the surface
the alliance would help in bringing
through and embedding a dungeon heart.
The United States attempted to nuke
their gate but were instead tricked into
hitting Norad in Cheyne mountain.
Meanwhile, in response to the sudden
invasions, the United Nations called an
emergency session in New York City.
Realizing that most if not all Earth
governments had been compromised by
the Dark Sun Society resolved not to use
nuclear or chemical weapons. Instead
mass recruitment began of metahumans,
mystics and those of the supernatural.
The first Probability Champions begin to
appear on Earth. These are for the most
part normal men and women imbued by
the Aelif in balance to the invaders. A
small percentage of men and women are
not only able to pass across reality
borders, but are also able to make tools
work in lands where they would
otherwise cease to function.
Algeria fell to Athas, India to Krynn,
and Nicaragua and the Honduras were
conquered by Aebrynis.
The cumulative effect of all the
dimensional gates being open created a
ripple effect through earth’s timeline
altering it at various points in the past
and future. The original timeline still
existed but had been shunted into a
parallel universe.
The combined Lemurian and Atlantean
forces defeated Krule. In an
extraordinary twist, the killing of Krule’s
Sorcerer King by the Lemurian General
meant under Krule’s customs all of
Krule now belonged to him. In effect
Krule joined Lemuria’s empire.
Bolivia fell to Abysmal. China reached a
stalemate with Gamma, as did the
United States with Oerth.
In February Australia defeated Eberron’s
forces due to the aid of metahumans
13
coordinated by the Southern Cross
superhero group. Canada likewise
defeated its Mystaran invaders mainly
through the aid of E.A.G.L.E. force and
their allies. France fell to Abeir Toril but
European metas including the agencies
T.H.U.N.D.E.R. and U.N.I.T.T. were
able to halt their advance into other
countries.
The dungeon heart took hold in the
Underground. Gaea was able to convince
the Dwarves, Gnomes, Gemzanites and
Terraneans to form their own alliance to
fight the invaders. Russian society began
to fall apart despite the withdrawal of the
invaders.
The United Nations came up with a plan
to send stealth recon forces through the
various gates to infiltrate the enemy and
gather intelligence. To this end they
recruited shapeshifters and people with
stealth powers from every country. A
UN envoy journeyed to Lemuria and
Atlantis for emergency meetings.
In March alliances were formed with
rebel groups in Abeir Toril, Gamma, and
Oerth.
Athas conquered Algeria, Libya, Tunisia
and Morocco. Aebrynis conquered
Nicaragua, the Honduras, El Salvador,
Costa Rica, Guatemala and Panama.
Krynn conquered India, Pakistan and
Afghanistan. Abysmal conquered
Bolivia, Peru and Paraguay.
Abeir Toril continued to engage in
skirmish battles in France and England.
Eberron sent smaller sorties into
Australia and New Zealand, as well as
Mystara with Canada.
Michigan was captured by Oerth forces
in the US.
Dis opened a new gate in Russia, near
Mongolia. It was immediately detected
by UN sorcerers.
Near the end of march additional
alliances were formed with rebels in
Eberron, Mystara, Krynn, and Athas.
Together with the UN council the
various rebel groups made plans for
uprisings on each of their respective
worlds. Weapons and equipment would
be supplied to them from Earth. Each
rebel group also sent a representative to
Earth to train Earth forces in tactics for
fighting Takhisis’ armies.
Justice Anonymous led a counter attack
in the Underground Middle Depths using
a combined Gaea Alliance and various
Earth army forces. The dungeon heart is
captured and purified by Earth’s magic
users. Verminspike city was destroyed in
the battle.
In April coordinated uprisings began on
Abeir Toril, Athas, Mystara, Aebrynis,
Abysmal and Cthon. Key strikes were
performed against high level officers and
officials, and important structures,
disrupting Takhisis’s war efforts. On
Athas Bahaus and his entire council
were assassinated. Tiamat was killed on
Aebir Toril by Omega Factor and rebel
forces. Atzanteotl died in battle on
Mystara. On Aebrynis Bane’s forces
were defeated and he was forced to flee
by spelljammer vessel to Krynn.
The war on Cthon reached a stalemate.
Almost two thirds of the planet having
fallen to the rebels. Moeras was killed on
Abysmal and his army sued for peace.
Vol was killed on Eberron by the
combined rebel and Earth military
forces.
14
Avalon returned to Earth after another
mana spike.
In May Takhisis fled from Krynn to Dis,
as the Heroes of the Lance routed her
army. Oerth was liberated by the
Champions of Skullgrey. The battle for
Gamma became stuck in a stalemate. A
major battle on Aebrynis ended with the
death of Bane and his army defeated.
Takhisis used her spelljammer fleet to
recall all her remaining armies to Dis.
Cthon became split between the
Dungeonlord, and the new
Dungeonmother whose goal was to
repair the world (a Cthonian version of
Gaea). On Gamma one city remained
under the control of Alpha 1. The rest of
the world fractured into regions. Some
led by the Gamma Knights, others by
warlords.
Another mana spike caused Themiscrya
to reappear on Earth. It also caused ley
lines to become much more powerful
and in some cases very visible.
Another time ripple caused the timelost
Basilica City to reappear.
In June Demonic forces once again
flooded through from Dis into Russia,
overwhelming the defenses set in place
around the gate. In panic the Russian
government dropped their most powerful
nuclear bomb on the gate, destroying the
demon army and transforming the gate
into a mana storm.
The storm resulted in the alternate
timeline being strengthened and the gate
network remaining permanently open.
A coordinated major offensive was
launched in every country captured by
the invaders. Each force consisted of
regular soldiers, armour, mechs, aircraft,
metahumans, magic users and various
supernatural races. All the captured
nations of Earth were liberated though
remnants of the invading armies were
able to escape and hide.
At the end of June Dis opened a new
gate in Russia along the Chinese border.
Takhisis herself came through with Lord
Soth and their most powerful demon
soldiers. The city of Harbin was overrun
with everyone within slaughtered. A
counter attack by the People’s Collective
and all of China’s metas resulted in Lord
Soth being killed and most of the
demons destroyed. Takhisis attempted to
unleash her meta spell, but was
hampered by Chinese magic users long
enough for Omega Factor to kill her.
In the aftermath of the war the UN
convened a meeting which included
envoys from each of the liberated
Shattered Realms worlds. Each planet
established its own embassy near the UN
building in New York. Trade
negotiations began.
Mana portals began opening to every
After Realm dimension.
Post Invasion earth changes
The United States is recovering but did
take a major hit and will require several
years to restore its industry and finance.
There are also a great amount of local
refugees who have fled the Colorado
state since a nuclear bomb was detonated
there. Medical resources are also being
stretched, having to treat the survivours
of the nuclear blast.
Canada fared much better than the US
and is recovering quickly. Some of the
15
forests however have new, more
supernatural inhabitants.
Central America is a huge mess. Already
fragile economies have collapsed and
many refugees are fleeing north or to
other realms. The drug cartels seem to
have fully taken over Mexico and moved
in on the other Central American failed
nations which includes; Belize, El
Salvador, Costa Rica, Guatemala,
Honduras, Nicaragua and Panama.
Bolivia has also suffered greatly, and
refugees are fleeing in all directions but
mainly to Argentina and Brazil which as
a result is putting a great strain on their
resources. It is also now a major
mystical region.
France is having major financial
problems and is getting help from the
EU and UN. Parts of France are highly
mystical in nature now.
China is having difficulty recovering and
is trying to restart some of its industries.
Mass conscriptions of workers for
rebuilding have begun.
Russia has fared the worst out of any
country; they have two radiation zones
from where the nukes were dropped, and
half the country is now wildlands.
Demons and monsters run loose in this
area although their numbers are low. The
current government has retreated to
Moscow and transformed it into a
stronghold, while what remains of the
Russian military attempts to reclaim the
country.
India and Pakistan have both taken
tremendous blows. The Indian
government is close to collapse while
Pakistan seems to already have broken
down into separate warring states.
Australia is one of the few recovering
quickly and well. There is much new
steamtech being traded from Eberron.
Algeria has also completely collapsed.
Aid is coming in from the UN and
refugees are going out, mainly trying for
Europe.
Lemuria and Atlantis have probably
fared the best out of everyone. They now
control an entire world (Krule) in the
Realms as well as now having joined the
UN.
For the Underground it is business as
usual with very little having changed.
Aside from that new worldheart..
There are also Realms’ army deserters
still on earth, hiding in various countries.
In France there is a warband of Orcs
hiding in the Landes de Gascogne forest.
The various deserts in Northern Africa
have become the new home of various
escaped Human, Elven, Thrikeen and
Mul slaves.
The Antarctic likewise now is home to
escaped slaves from Cthon, including
Gunbadthane Dwarves, Tundranesti
Elves, and Furchin Halflings.
Some Draconians were left behind and
have joined various human warbands in
India, Pakistan and now Afghanistan.
Lizardmen left over from Mystara have
been making their home in Canada’s
Great Bear Rainforest.
16
Lemuria and Atlantis are working out
plans for transit between their cities and
the realm of Krule.
As mentioned before, parts of Russia’s
wildlands contain remnants of the
Demon, Vermin, Formorians, Norse,
Dvergar and Beastmen armies. And no
they’re not unified. If anything they keep
killing each other to see who can achieve
dominance overall.
The General Assembly
The General Assembly is the main
deliberative organ of the United Nations.
It is composed of representatives from
all Member States, each of which has
one vote.
Economic and Social Council
A founding UN Charter body established
in 1946, the Economic and Social
Council (ECOSOC) is the place where
the world’s economic, social and
environmental challenges are discussed
and debated, and policy
recommendations issued.
International Court of Justice
The International Court of Justice is the
principal judicial organ of the United
Nations. The Court is charged with
settling legal disputes between States
and giving advisory opinions to the
United Nations and its specialized
agencies. Read more about the
International Court of Justice here.
The seat of the Court is at the Peace
Palace in The Hague (Netherlands). Of
the six principal organs of the United
Nations, it is the only one not located in
New York (United States of America).
The Court’s role is to settle, in
accordance with international law, legal
disputes submitted to it by States and to
give advisory opinions on legal
questions referred to it by authorized
United Nations organs and specialized
agencies. The Court decides disputes
between countries, based on the
voluntary participation of the States
concerned. If a State agrees to
participate in a proceeding, it is
obligated to comply with the Court’s
decision.
17
The International Court of Justice is
composed of 15 judges elected to nine-
year terms of office by the United
Nations General Assembly and the
Security Council. The Court may not
include more than one national of the
same State. Moreover, the Court as a
whole must represent the main forms of
civilization and the principal legal
systems of the world. These organs vote
simultaneously but separately. In order
to be elected, a candidate must receive
an absolute majority of the votes in both
bodies.
This sometimes makes it necessary for a
number of rounds of voting to be carried
out. In order to ensure a measure of
continuity, one third of the Court is
elected every three years. Judges are
eligible for re-election. Should a judge
die or resign during his or her term of
office, a special election is held as soon
as possible to choose a judge to fill the
unexpired part of the term.
Secretariat
The UN Secretariat, consisting of staff
representing all nationalities working in
duty stations all over the world, carries
out the day to day work of the
Organization. The Secretariat services
the other principal organs of the United
Nations and administers the
programmers and policies established by
them. At its head is the Secretary-
General, who provides overall
administrative guidance. The main
functions of the Secretariat are:
To gather and prepare background
information on various issues so that
government delegates can study the facts
and make recommendations;
To help carry out the decisions made by
the different organs of the United
Nations;
To organize international conferences;
To translate speeches and distribute
documents into the UN’s official
languages;
To keep the public informed about the
work of the United Nations.
The Security Council
Under the Charter, the Security Council
has primary responsibility for the
maintenance of international peace and
security. It has 15 Members, and each
Member has one vote. Under the
Charter, all Member States are obligated
to comply with Council decisions. Read
more about the Security Council here.
The Charter of the United Nations – an
international treaty – obligates member
states to settle their disputes by peaceful
means, in such a manner that
international peace and security and
justice are not endangered.
They are to refrain from the threat or use
of force against any state, and may bring
the dispute before the Security Council.
The UN Charter gives the Security
Council primary responsibility for
maintaining international peace and
security. The Council may convene at
any time, whenever peace is threatened.
In contrast to the decisions made by the
General Assembly, all Member States
are obligated under the UN Charter to
carry out the Security Council’s
decisions.
There are 15 Council members. Five of
these — China, France, the Russian
Federation, the United Kingdom and the
United States — are permanent
members. The other 10 are elected by
the General Assembly for two-year
terms. Member States continue to
discuss changes in Council membership
and working methods to reflect today’s
18
political and economic realities.
Decisions of the Council require nine
yes votes. Except in votes on procedural
questions, a decision cannot be made if
there is a no vote, or veto, by a
permanent member.
When the Council considers a threat to
international peace, it first explores ways
to settle the dispute peacefully. It may
suggest principles to the parties for a
peaceful settlement, appoint special
representatives, ask the Secretary-
General to use his good offices, or
undertake investigation and mediation.
It has developed and refined the use of
non-military measures including arms
embargoes, travel banks, and restrictions
to guard against the exploitation of
natural resources to fuel conflicts, as
well as taking a lead role in the
coordination of international counter-
terrorism efforts. In the event that a
dispute has erupted into armed conflict,
the Council tries to secure a ceasefire.
It may send a peacekeeping mission to
help the parties maintain the truce and to
keep opposing forces apart. The Council
may, in some cases, authorize the
utilization of military force by a
coalition of member states or by a
regional organization or arrangement.
This can only be carried out as a last
resort when all possible peaceful means
of settling a dispute have been
exhausted, or after a threat to the peace,
a breach of the peace or an act of
aggression have been determined to
exist.
In order to hold combatants accountable
for their actions, the Council has also
created international tribunals to
prosecute those accused of grave human
rights violations and serious breaches of
international humanitarian law,
including genocide.
In addition to its responsibility to
maintain international peace and
security, the Council also makes
recommendations to the General
Assembly to appoint a new Secretary-
General and to admit new Members to
the UN.
Security Council decisions are formal
expressions of the will of the Council. In
contrast to the decisions taken by the
General Assembly, those taken by the
Security Council are legally binding. As
Article 25 of the UN Charter states, “The
Members of the United Nations agree to
accept and carry out the decisions of the
Security Council in accordance with the
present Charter.”
Much like the General Assembly, most
of the decisions adopted by the Security
Council are made by consensus.
However, when there is no consensus
and decisions are put to a vote, the
minimum number of votes needed to
take action on an issue is determined by
whether the item is procedural or
substantive. According to Article 27 of
the UN Charter, each member of the
Security Council has one vote. Decisions
on procedural matters require a
minimum of nine ‘yes’ votes.
Decisions of the Security Council on all
other matters require a minimum of nine
‘yes’ votes including the concurring
votes of the permanent members. Any
member that is a party to a dispute must
abstain from voting. Except for votes on
procedural questions which are
determined by a simple majority, action
cannot be taken on an issue that is
19
brought before the Security Council if
any one of the permanent members vote
‘no’ on a draft resolution. The ability of
a permanent member to stop a draft
resolution from being adopted by voting
‘no’ is called the “veto power.”
All five permanent members have
exercised the right of veto at one time or
another. If a permanent member does not
fully agree with a proposed resolution
but does not wish to cast a veto, it has
been a long standing practice that it may
choose to abstain (i.e., decline to vote for
or against at proposal), thus allowing the
resolution to be adopted if it obtains the
required number of nine favourable
votes.
Under Chapter VII, the Council can take
measures to enforce its decisions and
ensure that mandates are fulfilled. It can
impose economic sanctions or order an
arms embargo. On rare occasions, the
Council has authorized Member States
to use “all necessary means,” including
collective military action, to see that its
decisions are carried out.
The United Nations Intervention Tactical
Taskforce (U.N.I.T.T.) and its sub
organizations are all part of and
controlled by the Security Council.
Trusteeship Council
The Trusteeship Council was established
to provide international supervision for
11 Trust Territories and to make sure
that adequate steps were taken to prepare
the Territories for self-government or
independence.

Dealing in all things magical,
specializing in cataloguing spells,
magical items, supernatural animals,
magical plants, supernatural species and
supernatural monsters as now present on
earth, and still within the Shattered
Realms and other magical dimensions in
the event they may at some future point
crossover to earth.
To aid in facilitating this it liaises with
the U.N.T.S.R., U.N.I.E.S., U.N.D.M.A.,
and the Parliament of Nature.
U.N.A.R.A. also has connections with
each of the magical colleges which have
begun to spring up on earth, as well as
existing colleges which have added
magical based studies to their
curriculum.
It even maintains a relationship with the
College of the Arcane in the United
States which also serves as the home
base for the group D’arque Justice.
However due to the US government
passing legislation preventing Arcane
studies from being taught in America,
the location of the College of the Arcane
remains a secret.
U.N.A.R.A. headquarters is located
under the Villa Doria Pamphili in Rome,
Italy.
Section 7: U.N.D.M.A.
(United Nations Database
on Meta Activities)
This department deals with the
cataloguing of metahumans, evolved
animals, extraterrestrials,
interdimensionals, and supernaturals
present on earth and their activities. It
has close ties to and shares information
with the M.R.U. Most law enforcement
agencies have adopted the U.N.D.M.A.
threat rating system to classify
metahumans or developed their own
variation of it.
All metanomalies are given a two-
character alphanumeric signifier,
followed by a short descriptor which was
designed to give agents and officials a
general idea of a superhuman’s power
and origins.
The first character is a letter which
denotes the source of the metanomaly's
power, used to determine on short notice
which equipment and techniques are
most suited to neutralize the threat. The
following list is considered in-progress:
A - Arcane. Power is drawn from mystic
or otherworldly energies.
D - Dimensional. Power is native to
another dimension.
E - Extraterrestrial. Power is native to
another planet in this dimension.
M - Mutant. Power stems from a twist
in evolution.
T - Technology. Power is based in
science significantly more advanced than
what is commonly available.
U: Unknown. Temporary label for new
threats that have yet to be categorized.
X: Unique. Power stems from a source
that does not fit into an existing
category, which is not shared by any
other metanomaly.
38
The second character is a number which
indicates their threat level:
0: Minimal Threat. Possesses no
noteworthy advantage over unpowered
humans.
1: Moderate Threat. Can be considered
as dangerous as an armed human.
Ordinary law enforcement are
considered able and authorized to deal
with the threat. They are relatively low-
powered and/or modestly trained.
Metahumans in this category provide
little more threat than a common non-
metahuman street-thug. Typical law-
enforcement response should be
sufficient to deal with these threats in
most cases. They can be contained in
standard containment facilities.
2: Significant Threat. Ordinary law
enforcement should not approach. Single
superheroes and M.R.U. teams are
considered able to deal with threat.
These threats possess sufficient
metahuman abilities and/or training to
pose a risk to typical law enforcement
response. Tactical response units are
likely the best way of dealing with such
a threat. They can be held in standard
containment facilities, or by minimal
modification to those facilities.
3: Major threat. Only specialized
M.R.U tactical teams and superhero
teams should approach. They are an
exceptional danger to society and are not
easily dealt with by standard law-
enforcement personnel (including
normal tactical response units). This is
the most common metahuman threat
level and represents the apex of threats
whose abilities are entirely based on
knowledge and training rather than
metahuman powers. They can rarely be
held for long within standard
containment facilities, usually requiring
specially prepared conditions for long-
term containment.
4: Severe Threat. Each known level 4
threat has a multijurisdictional task force
headed by M.R.U. devoted to monitoring
and defending against it. Veteran
superhero teams with special insight are
on-call. They are extremely dangerous
and only to be approached with
overwhelming force and great care.
These threats have the potential of
causing considerable damage and
represent a significant, immediate threat
to life and public resources/ services.
These threats are best handled by other
metahumans of comparable (individual
or combined) power, or by specially
trained response units and/or the
military. They cannot be held with
standard containment facilities and
methods and require specially prepared
conditions for long-term confinement.
5: Extreme Threat. No specific
countermeasures exist; in the event of a
level 5 threat, every resource M.R.U. has
access to is brought to bear including
every other agency of U.N.I.T.T.
Lastly, a descriptor is appended,
specifying the expression of the
metanomaly's power in order to advise
which safety precautions should be
taken.
In addition the U.N.D.M.A. publishes a
weekly, monthly and annual Supervillain
Threat Report, each of which focuses on
a particular major criminal or
organization and summarizes all
information gathered on that subject
over the previous year. The report
largely works from field reports
provided by agents after encounters,
though in extreme situations it sends
specialists into the field to gather
information about specific superhumans.

Extraterrestrial
Anthropological
Research Agency)
Established in 1991, a year after the
second invasion of earth by the
Martians. At first it mainly dealt with
Mars but has since grown to cater for the
various other extraterrestrial species
which have since visited earth.

This agency performs three primary

functions:
1. It provides shelter, medical care, and
other humane facilities to evidently
peaceful visitors from other worlds.
2. It utilizes medical data gathered from
its extraterrestrial clients to further the
study of medicine on this world.
3. It catalogues extraterrestrial
biological, cultural and technological
information and relays this knowledge to
appropriate authorities, primarily of
which is S.H.A.D.O.W. with which it is
closely tied.
4. It also polices and monitors
extraterrestrial activity on Earth.

The agency contains a variety of human

and alien tech used in the surveillance,
tracking and apprehension of visiting
extraterrestrials. One particular visual
display equipment continually updates
itself as aliens arrive to and depart from
earth. It is linked to orbiting satellites to
keep an eye on each visitor, monitoring
their locations and activities at all times.
The display which covers an entire wall
at HQ allows personnel to quickly get an
idea of the current alien situation at any
given moment. Other systems allow

History
Some time after the Second World War
ended the public’s opinions about
superhumans had begun to subtly sour.
With fewer costumed criminals to battle,
many of the first generation heroes chose
to retire. Several of those who remained
active came under fire for their failure to
cooperate with government officials. In
1954 at the height of the Communist
witchhunts in the U.S. all superheroes
were forced to abandon their activities in
the wake of police strikes and public
antimeta sentiment. Most supervillains
fled to other countries.
But the fact that there were fewer
superhumans openly fighting crime
didn’t slow the rate at which they
appeared around the world. If anything,
the pace at which new superhumans
appeared only accelerated in the early
1960s, and many of them arose in Third
World countries. Concerns about the use
of superhumans, some of whom could
cause massive destruction and loss of
life, in national armies became a
fiercely-debated issue in the General
Assembly. Similar worries about the role
of superhumans in crime and attacks on
society received attention as well. Two
shadows always loomed: the possible
use of nuclear weapons; and the use of
superhumans in combat.
A “Silver” Age of Superheroes began in
the United States with the debut of the
second Freedom Squadron. The UN, still
deeply concerned about the role of
superhumans in fostering (or at least
taking advantage of) world instability,
created a subcommittee to study the
nature of superpowers — where
they came from and how they worked.
At about the same time, a proposal was
41
presented to the Secretary-General for an
official UN institute to study the
social effects of superhuman powers on
society, specifically focusing on
superhuman crime. Although the
secretary was interested in the idea, for
various reasons the proposal never made
it to the General Assembly for a vote.
But some of the suggestions eventually
became part of U.N.I.T.T., and its
suborganizations. In the meantime
superhuman crime increased
dramatically, well beyond even the rates
seen before World War II. More
costumed crimefighters seemed to
emerge every day, but the wave of
costumed criminals threatened to
overwhelm them. Despite the best efforts
of the Freedom Brigade and others, the
public was of the opinion that something
needed to be done — something other
than relying on a group of costumed
crimefighters whose motivations and
identities were unknown, and whose
ability to respond to superhuman
menaces was not necessarily reliable.
Eventually the UN security council
realized that crimes committed by
superhumans would pose a threat to the
world as great, or perhaps greater, than
the threat Nazi Germany had posed —
but supercrime was too versatile and
fast-moving a phenomenon for national
armies to cope with. While there were
independent superhuman heroes who
fought such criminals, depending upon
such an unknown factor was sheer folly.
The world needed a multinational police
force, commanded only by the United
Nations, beholden to the world
community rather than any one country.
After some debate, they authorized the
creation of a commission — the United
Nations Intervention Tactical Taskforce,
or U.N.I.T.T. — to study how
superhumans affect society and world
security, and how the world should
respond to the problems they presented.
U.N.I.T.T. suggested that the UN should
establish, maintain, and command a
global police force for dealing with
superhuman crime and related matters of
global, regional, or even national
security. That in and of itself might not
have seemed so radical, but the Tribunal
further recommended that this police
force would have the jurisdiction to enter
the territory of any UN member who
signed the treaty establishing it (from
others it would, of course, have to obtain
permission on a case-by-case basis).
U.N.I.T.T.’s report further suggested
that the agency employ not only highly-
trained and equipped human agents but
also superhumans recruited from all UN
member nations.
Given their own large armies and police
forces, not to mention vast political and
economic influence, none of the
members of the Security Council were
likely to favour the creation of an
independent, multinational police force.
But two days before U.N.I.T.T. were to
make their proposal to the Security
Council in May 1965, something
happened to change the minds of the
great powers. A vehicle of extra-
terrestrial origin crashed in Siberia.
This UFO incident triggered a series of
secret UN meetings, as the world's
governments were informed of the
definite existence of unidentified flying
objects. On the way to one of these
meetings, a military convoy containing
Russian Colonel Kurtinov and American
General Prospero was attacked by a
42
UFO. Only the Colonel survived the
ambush and his subsequent
investigations proved that the UFOs
were of alien origin, hostile, and that
they posed a threat. The UN security
council agreed to work together and
create an organization to defend the
earth. Thus U.N.I.T.T, was formed and
very quickly its first suborganization
was created; the Strategic Hazard Alien
Defence Operatives Watchguard or
S.H.A.D.O.W. which would deal
specifically with extraterrestrial threats.
With the metahuman police force
becoming another suborganization; the
Metahuman Response Unit or M.R.U.
But not every member nation, including
many who’d voted in favor of the
establishment of the organization, signed
the Treaty. The primary exceptions were
the United States, the Soviet Union, and
China. All three saw U.N.I.T.T,’s value
to the world community as a whole, but
refused to allow the organization onto
their soil without express permission.
In the United States, the UN as an
organization had become politically
unpopular. Meanwhile national
superhuman “teams” began forming
around the world. While the major
American superteams all resisted direct
militarization, individual were willing to
serve their country in overseas conflicts.
In 1968 the UN brokered the Treaty on
Non-Proliferation, requiring signers to
agree not to further develop any nuclear
weapons programs or superhuman
programs or to use nuclear weapons or
superhumans in war. The US and USSR
refused to sign. Both countries, along
with China, covertly sent superhumans
into battle during the decade-long
Vietnam War.
1975 saw the UN establish the
U.N.D.M.A. (United Nations Database
on Meta Activities) for use by Interpol
and all police forces around the world.
In 1989 what would eventually be called
Terror Island arrived off the coast of
South Australia through an
interdimensional gateway. It was full of
Kaiju who then left the island en masse
to go rampage in Japan. The source of
what attracted them was found and sent
to another dimension by D’arque Justice
while the Japanese superhero team
H.E.R.O. were able to drive the Kaiju
out of Japan. U.N.I.T.T. was only able to
assist in recuing and providing medical
aid to civilians. Thus another
suborganization would be required; the
Anti Kaiju Rapid Deployment Force or
A.K.R.D.F. which would deal
specifically with giant monsters.
1990 saw the second war of the worlds
with Mars. The Martians were repelled
but S.H.A.D.O.W. bases in Siberia and
Rushmore were destroyed. A complete
reassessment was made of U.N.I.T.T.’s
structure and resources. It was found
there was a gaping hole in its ability to
fight in the ocean. Yet another
suborganization was formed; the
Tactical Strategic United Nations
Authority on Maritime Investigations or
T.S.U.N.A.M.I. The Stingray prototype
swift attack sub became the first vessel
to enter their fleet.
In 1991 Terror Island was handed over
to U.N.I.T.T. for them to monitor and
study the remaining Kaiju still inhabiting
the island.
Following the interdimensional invasion
of earth by the Shattered Realms, in
2021 the Investigative Response to
43
Interdimensional Incursions and
Subversions or I.R.I.I.S., and the
Twilight Corps were established as yet
further suborganization within
U.N.I.T.T.
At the same time the UN also created
U.N.A.R.A. (United Nations Arcane
Research Agency), U.N.I.E.S. (United
Nations Interdimensional Exploratory
Service). U.N.E.A.R.A. (United Nations
Extraterrestrial Anthropological
Research Agency), U.N.T.S.R. (United
Nations Tribunal on the Shattered
Realms), U.N.T.F.R. (United Nations
Tribunal on the Fey Realms),
U.N.T.O.R. (United Nations Tribunal on
the Ocean Realms), U.N.T.S.I. (United
Nations Tribunal on the Sky Islands) and
U.N.T.U. (United Nations Tribunal on
the Underground).
U.N.I.T.T. has had great successes, such
as its vital work during the various
invasions of Earth by the Shattered
Realms, the Demon realms and the
extraterrestrial attack from Mars. But
many of these victories have come at
great cost in lives and equipment, the
former not so easily replaced.
Nevertheless, U.N.I.T.T. continues to
stand as Earth’s first line of defense
against the forces of evil and chaos and
its position within the United Nations
remains secure.

and security guards.
U.N.I.T.T. Agents Hierarchy
P1 - Recruit
Includes only those recently introduced
to U.N.I.T.T. who have not yet passed
basic training.
P2 – Private
On completion of basic training
(normally 12 to 18 months), all new
recruits start as Privates. These are the
support troops who aid the regular
U.N.I.T.T. agents.
P3 – Corporal
Promotion to Corporal may follow after
about 3 years as a Private. Corporals are
required to supervise a small team of up
to four agents.
P4 - Lieutenant
After normally 6-8 years, and depending
on ability to lead, promotion to
Lieutenant typically follows. Lieutenants
have unique areas of responsibility such
as Internal Affairs, Public Relations,
Communications, Military Coordination,
Technology, and Recruitment and
Training.
P5 - Captain
Promotion to Captain generally occurs
after 8-10 years service but only if the
agent has distinguished themselves.
Captains are in charge of their local
branch and has the same powers as the
Colonels within their own jurisdiction.
D2 - Colonel
Colonels are in charge of all the
branches within their suborganization
and have the same powers as the General
within their own jurisdiction. The
Colonels who each run the A.K.R.D.F.,
I.R.I.I.S., M.R.U., S.H.A.D.O.W.,
T.S.U.N.A.M.I., E.R.D.R.F. and the
Twilight Corps suborganizations report
directly to Ardeen.
D1 - General Ardeen
In charge of U.N.I.T.T. overall and
answerable only to the UN secretary. His
job is to carry out official directives,
45
oversee the international operations, and
to represent the U.N.I.T.T.
administration to world governments,
national allies, and potential friendly
extraterrestrials.
U.N. Secretary
Is kept constantly up to date by Ardeem
on U.N.I.T.T.'s activities and any
problems. He also decides on the
funding for U.N.I.T.T. and can arrange
additional assistance as required.
Structure
U.N.I.T.T.’s Administration section
handle the “paperwork” of the
organization’s operations. They include
lawyers, accountants, secretaries,
receptionists, and clerks. These are the
bureaucrats who help U.N.I.T.T.
function on a day-to-day basis. They
keep up with U.N.I.T.T.’s budget and
paperwork, represent the organization at
diplomatic functions, and perform
similar tasks. Most members are
civilians with no U.N.I.T.T. training
whatsoever. They are based at
U.N.I.T.T. central headquarters in
Berlin, but of course it has employees at
every U.N.I.T.T. office or outpost.
The Technical section includes the
technicians who maintain the computers,
communications, weaponry and other
specialty equipment.
The Research and Development section
fights a continual battle to develop and
compete with alien technology and stay
ahead of possible developments on
Earth. Needless to say these are the most
advanced laboratories on the planet.
They are able to intercept any computer
breaches or virus's known. It is also here
that information is spread onto the
internet. The information is usually
false, but credible. They maintain a
massive 'firewall' to protect U.N.I.T.T.’s
security secrets. Computer traffic is
continually monitored for hints of alien
infiltration. Anything suspicious or
dangerous and the entire organization
involved is likely to vanish behind the
firewall. It is mainly staffed by
scientists, inventors and computer
programmers.
The Medical section of course is where
the organization’s doctors, nurses and
psychologists work. Operatives are
stationed in all major hospitals
throughout the world. Also a hospital is
situated at U.N.I.T.T. for any captured
alien, hybrid human or other interesting
life forms. U.N.I.T.T. personnel are
treated here and certain other practices
of a highly sensitive nature take place
here. The implantation process is
conducted here. Captured individuals are
also retained here for a short period.
What happens to them is only known to
a handful of individuals. These teams
also deal with viral outbreaks, major
traumas from alien attacks, the finding
of hybrid humans and alien beings.
Wherever these events may occur, or
any medical trauma U.N.I.T.T. deems a
threat to humanity will see the combat
teams mobilized. These teams are
trained in all aspects of modern earth
medicine and also have a degree of
extra-terrestrial knowledge.
The Engineering Corps section are
responsible for building U.N.I.T.T.’s
arsenal, maintaining U.N.I.T.T.’s bases,
and distributing equipment to the agents.
The extensive warehouses full of
weapons, gear and vehicles maintained
there covers several city blocks and are
heavily defended. It includes mechanics
and repairmen who keep U.N.I.T.T.’s
equipment operating.
46
The Quartermaster section maintains the
various bases and fleets around the
world and in space. They supply food,
fuel and munitions to the various
outposts.
U.N.I.T.T.’s military sections include;
- The Anti Kaiju Rapid Deployment
Force; which deals specifically with
combating any Kaiju which leave
Shadow Island and attack any
communities (detailed in section 8).
- The Investigative Response to
Interdimensional Incursions and
Subversions; which is tasked with
keeping track of any interdimensional
crossings into our earth, and responding
to them, by force if necessary (detailed
in section 12).
- The Metahuman Response Unit;
especially equipped to fight any
superhumans (detailed in section 11).
- The Strategic Hazard Alien Defence
Operatives Watchguard; which not only
monitors any extraterrestrials on earth
but deals with any threats from space
(detailed in section 9).
- The Tactical Strategic United Nations
Authority on Maritime Investigations;
which is really just the naval side of
S.H.A.D.O.W. but now large enough to
warrant its own section (detailed in
section 10).
- The Twilight Corps; dealing with
supernatural occurrences and menaces
(detailed in section 13).
- The Emergency Rapid Deployment
Rescue Force; responsible for rescue in
extreme situations where normal
services cannot reach, anywhere in the
world (detailed in section 14).
While U.N.I.T.T. usually presents a
unified front to the world an image that
enhances the agency’s reputation in the
eyes of the underworld and world
governments alike — like any other
large organization it has its own internal
politics. Most agents are extremely loyal
to the organization, and to the ideals for
which it stands, but that doesn’t mean
they checked their other ideals and
loyalties at the door of the recruiting
office. For example, most agents retain
some degree of loyalty to their home
nation and/or people, even if they also
espouse broader, multinational views.
U.N.I.T.T. and the world
While the U.N.I.T.T. gives them the
ability to operate without other
restrictions in any signatory state or
international territory, U.N.I.T.T.’s
commanders and agents are aware that
they’re in a diplomatically delicate
position. If they seem to snub, ignore, or
insult the officials or citizens of a
signatory state, they could quickly find
their authority to enter that state
curtailed through various “unofficial”
means — or even give the General
Assembly cause to recommend
restrictions on U.N.I.T.T.’s jurisdiction.
The last thing U.N.I.T.T. wants to do is
make its own job harder, so it goes out
of its way to maintain good relationships
with the world’s governments and police
forces. It sends liaisons to major law
enforcement agencies and frequently
offers its assistance in matters over
which is has no jurisdiction. Unless time
pressures, concerns about corruption, or
other circumstances make it inadvisable
to do so, U.N.I.T.T.’s commanders
inform a signatory nation and its police
forces before commencing a major
operation on that nation’s soil.
Whenever possible, it contacts the
signatory nation long before a mission
begins to seek the advice and assistance
of local officials, who often know the
47
situation “on the ground” far better than
U.N.I.T.T. does.
U.N.I.T.T. recruitment and
training
U.N.I.T.T.’s recruitment procedures are
exacting and strenuous. Few applicants
— 23%, to be precise — satisfy
U.N.I.T.T.’s standards. U.N.I.T.T.
recruits mostly from colleges, other law
enforcement organizations, and the
military. Approximately half of its
agents have some law enforcement or
military experience prior to joining the
organization.
Recruitment begins when an interested
person talks to an U.N.I.T.T. “Recruiting
Officer” (usually a retired agent) at one
of the recruiting offices U.N.I.T.T.
maintains at its major urban bases (and
in some other cities). Prospective
recruits must have at least a college
education or the equivalent. Given the
sometimes-sensitive nature of its duties,
the high technology it employees, and
the canniness of its enemies, U.N.I.T.T.
wants smart, educated agents. It’s
particularly interested in persons with
relevant graduate or professional degrees
(including criminology, law, and various
sciences) and/or the ability to speak
multiple languages.
Prospective field agents must enter the
training program before they turn 30.
Personnel hired for non-field positions
may be of any age (and generally don’t
have to satisfy the qualifications for field
agents).
Wages and benefits
For the agents, administrators, and
support staff of U.N.I.T.T., the job of
protecting the world from supervillains,
alien invaders, and unnatural disasters is
precisely that: a job. Unlike superheroes,
who usually fight crime out of the
goodness of their hearts, U.N.I.T.T.
employees (no matter how dedicated)
expect to be paid and to receive other
job-related benefits.
Positions within U.N.I.T.T., like the
United Nations itself, are rated in two
categories: the Professional Scale for
general employees, which runs from P-1
(the most junior level, for beginning
employees) to P-5; and the Director
Scale, which has only two levels (D-1
and D-2). Positions within any UN
subagency, such as U.N.I.T.T., belong to
one of the seven levels, and salary
ranges and raise rates are set within
those levels. Raises for general
competence and to match cost-of-living
increases are limited within a range,
while promotions to a higher level
guarantee at least a matching salary and
a higher rate of raises.
As of late 2021, annual base salaries for
U.N.I.T.T. civilian support staff (in
US$);
37,000 - 66,000 for entry level
professionals (P1 - P3)
67,000 - 94,000 for mid-career
professionals (P4 - P5)
95,000 - 123,000 for senior level
professionals (D1 - D2)
Annual net base salaries for U.N.I.T.T.
agents (in US$);
50,000 - 79,000 for entry level
professionals (P1 - P3)
80,000 - 109,000 for mid-career
professionals (P4 - P5)
110,000 - 150,000 for senior level
professionals (D1 - D2)
Salaries, grants and allowances paid by
the United Nations are normally exempt
from income tax.
48
The base salary is supplemented by a
post adjustment which varies according
to the cost of living in the duty station
and the exchange rate of the United
States dollar. The post adjustment, set by
the United Nations as a percentage of the
base salary, ensures that all staff
members at the same salary level have a
similar purchasing power in every duty
station by compensating for the
differences in cost of living while taking
currency fluctuations into account.
For example if your annual base salary is
US$ 64,000 and the post adjustment
multiplier for your duty station is 65.7%,
your salary will be calculated based on
the following:
Post adjustment per year:
US$ 64,000 x 0.657 = US$ 42,048
Total annual salary: $64,000
+$42,048
= US$106,048
Agents posted in dangerous positions
(like Shadow Island) receive a larger
bonus.
U.N.I.T.T. has a mandatory retirement
age of 65 for field agents. In practice,
most agents retire well before then, as
full pensions become available after the
age of 55 as long as an agent has twenty
years of service.
U.N.I.T.T. offers a generous benefits
package, including maternity and
paternity leave of up to six months, rent
subsidies if local rent exceeds a set
amount, comprehensive medical
insurance (including dental and visual),
and inexpensive life and disability
insurance packages. Physicals are
mandatory biannually for agents up to
the age of 40, and annual thereafter.
Promotion
U.N.I.T.T. promotes primarily on the
basis of merit. Obviously any large
organization suffers from some degree
of favouritism (and perhaps nepotism),
and important UN officials sometimes
subtly bring influence to bear on behalf
of relatives or friends in U.N.I.T.T., but
by and large a U.N.I.T.T. agent can only
work his way up the ranks by doing
his job and doing it well. (In part this
means having few or no disciplinary
infractions in his record). While bravery
and unusual accomplishment (such as
capturing a supervillain singlehandedly)
certainly don’t hurt an agent when it
comes time to hand out promotions, the
High Command first and foremost looks
at a sustained record of efficient,
competent performance of an agent’s
duties and an overall pattern of
accomplishment and valour.
Discipline
Agents who break U.N.I.T.T.’s rules
face discipline within the organization,
as well as appropriate civilian criminal
penalties. The most common infractions
include:
1. Misuse of U.N.I.T.T. property (most
frequently, weapons or vehicles)
2. Tardiness or unexplained absences
3. Assaulting another agent or a private
citizen (including the use of excessive
force against a suspect or detainee)
4. Revealing classified information
5. Discrimination or harassment,
especially racial or sexual in nature
6. Failure to pass a physical or otherwise
maintain fitness standards
U.N.I.T.T. has five standard levels of
punishment, depending on the
seriousness of the infraction and the
history of the agent in question: verbal
reprimand; letter of censure; probation;
suspension (usually for 2-4 weeks, with
49
or without pay in the suspending U.N.I.T.T. Melee Weapons
officer’s judgment); and dismissal. Combat Axe
Application of disciplinary measures is
generally at the discretion of the superior
in question, but U.N.I.T.T. has a formal
review process that agents who feel
they’ve received unfair treatment can
initiate. An agent with too many
reprimands or letters of censure, and so
much as a single punishment beyond
that, can expect his chances for This is a type of ax that uses a compact

Robotic Sentry Gun Mk IV
The Automated Sentry Gun, known
colloquially as the "Robot Sentry", is a
tripod-mounted automated perimeter
defense system used to deliver pre-set
automatic fire to any hostile within range
or area targets. They are equipped with
autocannons and automatic thermal and
movement actuated AI targeting
capabilities. Each remote sentry unit
weighs in at 19.5 kg and can be
assembled in under 150 seconds. The
major components consist of a snap-
open tripod mounting, battery pack,
breech and barrel assembly, sensor unit
and 500-round ammunition drum. A
microwave datalink connects the sentry
to a remote command console. Once
emplaced, the system may be set to
sweep wide arcs up to 360° (subject to
terrain and emplacement restrictions),
though doctrine is to set several sentries
to cover smaller, interlocking fields of
fire on a narrow frontage. The weapon

The sentry unit's sensor array is mounted
above the barrel, aligned to cover a 60°
cone in front of the weapon. This
sensing suite consists of a cooled
infrared detector, ambient light optics,
an ultrasonic motion tracker and a lidar.
If a target's visual or thermal profile is
known, the system may be pre-set to
scan for only these specific targets using
infrared or optical. However, the system
is usually set to multi-spectral mode,
where the sentry's software cross-
correlates received data from the
different sensors to obtain a full target
profile.
The sentry has three operating modes —
Auto-Remote, Manual Override and
Semi-Automatic. When set to Auto-
Remote, the sentry will interrogate all
targets in its sensor cone using an
Identification Friend Foe (IFF)
transponder. All U.N.I.T.T. personnel
and vehicles carry an IFF transponder in
their communications gear which sends

The Thunderbolt is 122 cm long,

incorporating a 54.5 cm barrel, while the
entire gun assembly, including the
harness and a full load of ammunition,
masses 17.82 kg. Firing is controlled
either by depressing a red "fire" button
mounted on the forward hand grip, or by
lifting a firing handle mounted beneath
the rear grip. A selector on the forward
grip switches the weapon between its

also automatically charge the weapon
(provided there is not already a round
chambered), although Marines have
expressed disdain for this system, citing
it as a major cause of stoppages, and
prefer instead to manually charge the
weapon after reloading using the
cocking handle on the right side.
The gun's rotating breech and feed
mechanism are powered by an internal
motor. In the event of a stoppage, the
charging handle can be used to clear the
mechanism. Ammunition is stored on a
roll of continuous plastic non-
disintegrating link belt; the drum
magazine typically holds 500 rounds and
can be quickly reloaded in the field.
While the operator is standing, the gun is
held and steered by its fore and back
grips. Owing to the attachment point for
the weapon's mount, it cannot be fired
while lying prone; instead, the operator
must employ a supine position (i.e. lying
on their back). When supine, the gun is
controlled with the foregrip and the
charging handle, the latter of which must
be locked forwards for this purpose.
When powered up, the gun begins
tracking targets via the infrared detector
mounted directly above the barrel. The
tracking system also transmits thermal
images to a miniature video display in
the operator's eyepiece. If a target is
detected, the tracker will overlay a
lighted box or rectangle over the target's
center mass on this display, highlighting
it for the operator's attention. At the
same time, the articulator arm will steer
the gun towards the target, and once it
has acquired a lock the operator will be
informed by a target lock circle that
illuminates on the display screen.
In the event that the operator wishes to
engage an opponent other than the one
currently locked on to, they can simply
steer the gun manually towards their
preferred target and the system will
acquire a fresh lock. This tactic is also
vital when faced with the use of infrared
false-target decoys.

UM1 Mortar
This is a man-portable anti-armour
weapon. The core element is an 11.3kg
carbon fiber composite tube, a single-
round self-contained disposable launcher
supported by a bipod stand and
baseplate. The tube incorporates usb
ports to connect it to the fire control
system. The bipod can be set to launch
the warhead horizontally or at increasing
angles up until the vertical, depending
on deployment.
58
Fire control for the UM1 varies
according to mission. For defensive
deployment, the weapon is attached to a
Fire Controller, an 800 Gb intelligent
system capable of importing data from
any local sensor matrix, including any
motion trackers, infrared scanners, lidar,
radar and robot sentries in operation. It
can be set to either autonomous or
command configurations. When active,
the unit analyses incoming sensor data,
and if it positively identifies a target it
will lock on with one or more missiles
under its command.
If set to Command mode, upon
identifying a target the UM1 will pass a
target lock indication to the connected
operator's terminal, allowing the
operator to either authorize launch or, if
the target's identity is unclear, request a
further Identification Friend Foe (IFF)
interrogation.
If enabled for autonomous mode, the
UM1 will work through its target
identification protocols to ensure that the
locked-on target is an enemy before
automatically launching an appropriate
strike. It is also possible to datalink it
into higher level assets, such as
surveillance drones, mechs or artillery
forward observers.

thrown or fired from a grenade rifle or
mortar. Grenades can be set to explode
in two ways: on impact or with a timer
that is adjustable for 1 to 10 turns. Any
character or creature within the radius of
a grenade when it goes off can be
affected.
Standard size grenades
Type: Grenade
Blast Radius: 5 mtrs unless otherwise
stated
Weight: 200 grams
Chemical Defoliant
A chemical defoliant foam breaks down
any vegetable matter in the foamed area
within one minute, leaving a slimy,
green residue. It has no effect on non-
floral organisms.
Doze
A doze grenade releases a cloud of fast-
acting knockout gas within a 10 mtr
radius. All creatures within the radius
will fall asleep for D100 turns unless
they save vs stun for half the duration.
The doze gas is effective only on the
turn that the grenade goes off.
Dye
This foam dyes anything it contacts. The
dye dissipates after 20 hours. It can be
any colour the player desires. This is
often used to mark escaping fugitives or
vehicles.
Explosive
Explosive grenades are very much the
same as a frag grenade but does more
explosive damage minus the fragment
pieces. Anyone caught within the blast
radius takes 2D6 x10 explosive damage.
Flash
This grenade produces a blinding flash
of light upon detonation to blind
opponents. The flash temporarily
activates all photoreceptor cells in the
eye, blinding it for approximately five
seconds. Afterward, victims perceive an
afterimage which impairs their vision for
an additional 4 +D10 minutes. Reduce
all effects by second or minute for every
5 metres from the point of the grenade’s
ignition.
Flashbang
A flashbang grenade combines three
half-million candlepower strobe flashes
with a very loud bang to stun, blind and
deafen opponents. All people within 5
mtrs of the blast (15 mtrs if indoors) are
stunned and deafened for 2D6 x10
seconds and blinded for D6 turns. Save
vs Stun for half that duration.
Foam
Foam grenades release chemicals that
instantly swell in normal oxygen
atmosphere and standard gravity. The
swelling creates a thick, opaque,
foamlike substance that expands in one
turn to completely fill an area within a 5
mtr radius of the blast point. The dense
foam smothers any flames. It will
dissipate after one minute.
61
Frag
Standard "Room Clearing" explosive
charge wrapped in a fragile steel case
designed to shatter into hundreds of
sharp steel fragments. Anyone caught
within the 5 mtrs of the explosive charge
takes D6 x10 explosive damage.
However the grenade also has a +10 mtr
"danger zone" where anyone within will
be hit by D10+2 ‘frags’ each doing D10
damage.
Incendiary
Incendiary grenades spread a mass of
moderate-intensity incendiaries over a 5
mtr area, saturating it in flame. Anyone
caught within the area will take 2D6 x10
burning damage. The burning liquid
sticks to the victim, causing an
additional 2D6 x5 the next round, 2D6
x2 the round after, and 2D6 thereafter.
Body armour has no effect against this
damage unless it is a full suit of fire-
retardant armour. Anything flammable
within the radius of the point of impact
have a 90% chance to catch fire.
Smoke
Produces a cloud of vision obscuring
smoke in a variety of colours (buyers'
choice) over a 10 +D10 mtr radius.
Anyone firing through a gas cloud is at -
4 per 2 mtrs of gas between him and his
target. The cloud obscures vision,
applying visibility modifiers for smoke
to relevant tests. It lasts for
approximately 4 turns (less in windy
areas, longer in confined areas at the
gamemaster’s discretion). It can also be
used as a signal.
Sonic
This class of grenades does its damage
through blasts of high frequency
sonics. Anyone within the blast radius
who can hear takes 2D10 damage and
must save vs Stun or be disorientated for
D6 rounds.
Tangler
An exploding tangler grenade throws out
hundreds of strong, sticky polymer
threads. These threads stick to
everything within the blast radius. An
entangled individual can not move until
the threads decay (in 30 minutes) or until
solvaway is spread over the threads. Any
creature with more than 30 STR can
break out of tangler threads in one turn.
Tear Gas
The effects of tear gas are unpleasant at
best. This extremely potent irritant
temporarily impairs vision and
respiration, causing eyes to bum and
water profusely, skin to bum (a
sensation, not in actuality), and making
breathing very difficult. Inhalation of
tear gas will reduce INT, CON, DEX
and MR by half unless a save vs Non
Lethal Gas roll is made each round of
exposure for one quarter effects. Anyone
without optics will also receive a -6 to
Thac0 and any rolls requiring sight from
tearing that will last for D6 minutes after
exposure. The cloud dissipates after 4
turns (less in windy areas, longer in
confined areas at the gamemaster’s
discretion).
Whit Phosphorus
Designed with an explosive core
wrapped in white phosphorous
surrounded in oil in a sealed steel
canister, this explosive charge scatters
burning white phosphorous over a large
15 mtr radius area. White phosphorous
burns on contact with oxygen in any
form and will continue to burn until
oxidized completely. Anyone caught
within 10 mtrs of detonation must try to
dodge at -5 to avoid D6+2 phosphorous
62
and steel fragments doing 4D6 initial
damage each and then burning for 2D6
damage each round for D4 rounds.
Whit Phosphorus is difficult to
extinguish because it reignites whenever
exposed to air. If an affected area or
target can be completely cut off from air,
the chemical's effects end after two
combat Turns.

respiration, level of hydration (or
dehydration), and a number of specific
chemical responses detectable through
the skin. The vital signs are displayed
on a small hand-held computer the size
of a paperback novel and can be stored
in memory, on disk, or transmitted to
another computer system. It will

-Sonic scalpel-- A powered precision
cutting tool that uses focused sound to
cut metal, plastic, or flesh. Makes a
smooth, bloodless incision up to 5 mm
deep. Sonic scalpels have a rechargeable
internal battery that can power the beam
for up to two continuous hours at a time,
though it usually lasts far longer, since
the beam is rarely on for more than a
few seconds at a time.
-Laser scalpel--used to make deep
incisions. Laser scalpels are preferred
over sonic scalpels for some applications
due to the fact that the laser scalpel
instantly cauterizes the wound,
preventing bleeding. The scalpel's beam
is adjustable and is often used to
cauterize without actually cutting. They
have a rechargeable internal battery that
can power the beam for up to two
continuous hours at a time, though it
usually lasts far longer, since the beam is
rarely on for more than a few seconds at
a time.

immobilizes the limb and reduces the
chances of additional injury.
-Instacast--More durable than an
instasplint, the instacast is an
adjustable, plastic sleeve which hardens
when a catalytic solution is applied,
creating a rigid but relatively
comfortable 'cast'. Use of an instacast
effectively halves the maneuver penalty
for a broken limb. It is easily removed
by the application of a softening
solution. A tube of each solution is
included with each instacast.

- 1 Laser Cutter -- A device consisting of
a handle with a 13 cm long, slender ( 1
cm in diameter at the widest point) cone.
A dial on the base of the handle controls
width and intensity of the pinpoint laser
beam, which can be used to either cut
through thin material or fuse circuits.
Though fairly powerful, it is not very
practical as a weapon since the beam
focuses about 1-5 cms from the tip of the
cone.
74
- 1 Heavy Cutter-- The heavy-duty
version of the laser above, this device is
more powerful: it will burn through an
inch of alloyed steel in moments, able to
cut a 1 meter diameter hole in a standard
ships interior door in 15 seconds. The
beam can be set for up to 30 cm of focus
length, but is most effective at about 5
cm. It is also able to weld.
Portable Lab
This portable unit can perform several
types of scanlanalysis, as well as record
scan information for future, more
detailed analysis later. It includes the
following;
- 1 Microscope in a specially padded
housing
- 12 specimen slides + 12specimen trays
for storage and transportation of item(s)
for further analysis. A variety of vials,
jars and test tubes.
- 1 incubation chamber
- 4 burners
-1 refrigeration chamber which is about
half the size of the incubation
chamber
- 1 insolation chamber; a special,
airtight, sealable compartment about the
size of the incubation chamber
- 1 chemical cabinet which holds several
dozen chemicals commonly needed in
the analysis of chemical structures

any form of radiation, running the full
spectrum from gamma to infrared,
automatically screening out the usual
background radiations (unless
programmed to do otherwise). This is
useful in detecting transmission sources,
as well as any sort of energy generator.
Range varies tremendously depending
on the power/transmission, but an
activated scanner could pick up an
unshielded communicator beam at a
range of about 1 km, while it could
detect a large, operating fusion reactor
from as far as 100 kms.
- 1 Repair Scanner; Successful use of the
repair Scanner allows a Technician to
determine the exact causes and effects of
malfunctions or damage to mechanical,
lower, and electrical systems. It can
detect even minute electrical currents at
a range of 100 mtrs. The Repair scanner
is able to trace power lines and circuitry,
and - with a skilled operator - analyze
flawed circuits as a prelude to repair. It
can also analyze electronic locks as a
prelude to defeating them. The Repair
scanner also has fine tuning controls,
allowing it to determine detailed interior
structures of any object within 20
metres. The Scanner is able to penetrate
most normal physical objects (walls,
bulkheads) and force fields.
- 1 Bioscanner--This device consists of a
network of straps and electrodes
connected to a readout gauge. When
attached to a plant or animal, living or
dead, it can determine what type

joint military organization formed by the
United Nations, bound together by the
shared goal of containing, combating
and eliminating the Kaiju. It began as a
subsection of S.H.A.D.O.W. but
consequently has grown large enough to
exist as its own organization.
Using retrieved extraterrestrial
technology the U.N.A.K.R.D.F. have
constructed various mecha to combat the
giant monsters which live on Shadow
Island as well as occasional incursions
from other dimensions.

76
History
In 1989 what would eventually be called
Terror Island arrived off the coast of
South Australia through an
interdimensional gateway created as a
side effect of the dimensional battle in
2020.
Soon after there were three Kaiju attacks
in Tokyo, Los Angeles, and Sydney. In
each instance the various Kaiju are
repelled by various superhero groups
and return to Terror Island.
S.H.A.D.O.W. was tasked with securing
the island and a naval blockade
maintained by various countries was set
up there.
1990 saw the second war of the worlds
with the Martians. S.H.A.D.O.W. and
various superhero (and some
supervillain) groups took heavy losses in
fighting the Martians. Just when Martian
victory seemed assured they made the
critical error was of attacking Shadow
Island for the energy sources they
detected there. Instead the monster
inhabitants massacred the bulk of the
invaders allowing earth forces to mop up
the rest.
This changed everything.
S.H.A.D.O.W.’s brief with Terror Island
was changed. First it would be renamed
Shadow Island with full control of it
being given to S.H.A.D.O.W. Second a
research facility would be built there
which would include not only scientists
but also mystical experts, geologists and
xenobiologists.
However some form of defense was
required against rogue kaiju.
Though they would encounter problems
properly implementing the power
systems and calculating the required
manpower to pilot a mech, they would
eventually succeed, urging the U.N. to
offer their continued support of the
program. After another Kaiju attack, this
time on Lima construction of the mechs
were authorized, with the bulk of the
work to be done in Japan. There they
would be dubbed ‘Mobile Weapons
Platforms’. Their explicit purpose was
the defense of various countries and
cities bordering coastlines from Kaiju
attack.
By 1992 Mecha facilities had begun
construction in various cities around the
world which were built on coastlines.
First among them were Adelaide in
Australia (due to its proximity to
Shadow Island); Santa Maria in the US;
Penzance in the UK; Porto Alegre in
Brazil; Chennai in India; Hong Kong in
China; Nikolayevsk-na-Amure in
Russia, and Yokohama in Japan.
In recent times funding has waned
somewhat as there have been less Kaiju
attacks and the money has been needed
elsewhere.
77
Kaiju Prediction Network
The Kaiju Prediction Network
abbreviated KPN, is part of the
organization dedicated to tracking and
studying Kaiju. It also acts as a Kaiju
emergency warning system for any
islands or countries which suddenly find
themselves in the path of a giant
monster. The KPN uses Specific Area
Message Encoding (SAME) which is
utilized on AM, FM and Land Mobile
Radio Service, as well as VHF, UHF,
Cable television and low-power stations.
Following the SAME, a representative of
the U.N.A.K.R.D.F. will issue necessary
instructions to civilians on where to go
in the event of a Kaiju attack. Civilians
living on the coastlines are drilled
sporadically with the KPN. In
conjunction with the alert system, Civil
defense sirens are used to warn city
populations of oncoming danger as
mechs are deployed. U.N.A.K.R.D.F.
personnel assist in the evacuation of
civilians from cities and into Anti-Kaiju
Shelters if there isn't time to leave the
immediate area. If required
T.S.U.N.A.M.I. and S.H.A.D.O.W. can
also render aid with evacuations.
M-Tech
M-Tech or Mecha Technology is an
occupation given to officers in charge of
the maintenance of the Mecha systems
and robotics. M-Tech officers are
responsible for programming logistics
involved in Mecha weaponry and
combat, as well as the creation and
maintenance of the special
communications equipment and the
Mecha bases.
M-Program
The Mecha Program is a project that
focuses on the development of massive
mobile weapon platforms in response to
the Kaiju threat.
A Mecha Academy was created to train
personnel who volunteered or enlisted
into the program for various positions
that included becoming a pilot.
M-Academy
The Mecha Academy is an institution
created by the U.N.A.K.R.D.F. to train
new pilots for their respective Mechas in
the war against the Kaiju. The training
program at the Mecha Academy takes a
total of twenty four weeks, divided into
three eight-week trimesters. The
Academy serves as both a recruitment
and training center. The academy works
to prepare future pilots and candidates
for service in the U.N.A.K.R.D.F., and
the physical and mental demands it
requires.
Students learn about the technical
aspects of piloting a Mecha and are
constantly tested and pushed to their
physical and mental limits; how much a
student can remember, learn and
maintain within a short period of time
determines whether or not they’ll be able
to make the cut and become a pilot.
Their ability to trust the person next to
them, relative or otherwise noted, is also
incumbent on determining their status as
pilots. Training exercises which
normally provide education in a service
environment are presented in battle
simulations or one-one-one combat
sessions.
Very few who join the academy ever
make it past the first cut. Those who
train pilot hopefuls, train them with the
intention of breaking their spirit;
maintaining relentless tactics to
exemplify the mercilessness of the Kaiju
78
the trainees will hope to face in battle as
pilots. Anyone who scrubs out at any
point after the first cut still qualifies for a
support position.
Recruits study tactics, engineering, basic
and Kaiju science. Should they make the
cut, they move on to pilot training.
Trainees are required to master an array
of combat disciplines to properly
condition their bodies for battle in
Mecha. These include a total
unconscious mastery of the 52 positions
of Mecha Bushido. Recruits train in the
mock-pod simulator and learn how to
synch with their mech. Trainees are
required to master their minds while a
commanding officer observes in
preparation for the Mecha’s pilot system.
The quicker they are inside the
simulation, the better the
synchronization is likely to be. A vast
majority will be cut here.
How quickly they react to a loss of a
balance of systems control within the
Mecha sets them apart from the rest of
their colleagues. The few recruits who
make the second cut are allowed to start
logging time on the test range in an
actual Mecha.
M-Bases
Mecha bases are the primary
headquarters of the U.N.A.K.R.D.F. and
factories for the construction, repair,
maintenance and launch of the Mechs.
All operations, training and experiments
regarding the Kaiju are carried out
within their respective Mecha bases.
The bases are massive buildings
designed or built to house over a dozen
or more facilities and personnel directly
dedicated to the repair and operations of
the mechs. M-Bases provide housing and
food for all personnel, including a place
to hone their fighting skills.
Located near major bodies of water, M-
Bases have three major points of
deployment for Mechs; by land, by sea
or by air. The very top of a base is
mechanized dome-shaped roof that
opens, allowing twelve transport
vehicles, to lift certain Mechs out of the
facility and toward an incursion point.
The other means of exporting Mechas
from the base is using massive
submersible transports, and mechanized
land platforms that can carry mechs by
road.
Operations within the bases are overseen
in the Mission Control, a massive room,
overcrowded with tracking systems that
oversee Kaiju attacks as they happen,
and the status of the pilots. Mechs are
often sequestered in their own respective
bays. Maintenance of Mechs are
maintained by each country’s respective
M-Tech teams. Large mobile catwalks
were designed to move around any given
area of a Mech above the ground,
allowing teams to repair the mechs
wherever necessary.
The considerations for the placement of
M-Bases are regional and tactical, not
political. They are built where they can
best and most quickly serve the region
they are protecting.
All personnel are issued standard ID
cards in order to allow entry into each
M-Base. All security within are
instructed to shoot to kill intruders on
sight in restricted areas.

Equipment
Tech Computer: This device in the
right shoulder reveals any form of
radiation, running the full spectrum from
gamma to infrared, automatically

87
screening out the usual background
radiations (unless programmed to do
otherwise). This is useful in detecting
transmission sources, as well as any sort
of energy generator. Range varies
tremendously depending on the
power/transmission, but an activated
scanner could pick up an unshielded
communicator beam at a range of about
1 km, while it could detect a large,
operating fusion reactor from as far as
100 kms.
Repair Computer: Worn on the left
wrist this allows a Technician to
determine the exact causes and effects of
malfunctions or damage to mechanical,
lower, and electrical systems. It can
detect even minute electrical currents at
a range of 100 mtrs. The Repair scanner
is able to trace power lines and circuitry,
and with a skilled operator analyze
flawed circuits as a prelude to repair. It
can also analyze electronic locks as a
prelude to defeating them. The Repair
scanner also has fine tuning controls,
allowing it to determine detailed interior
structures of any object within 20
metres. The Scanner is able to penetrate
most normal physical objects (walls,
bulkheads) and force fields, though
the GM may wish to include a difficulty
subtraction when trying to read through
a number of obstacles.
Vapourscanner: This small device on
the right wrist contains sensitive gas
analyzers. It will report on a digital
screen what gaseous elements are
present, their quantities and whether
breathing them is dangerous.
External Audio Pick-up system: Sound
amplification listening systems that can
pick up a whisper at a range of 30 mtrs
away and louder sounds at longer
distances.
Optics Package: This includes a

Super Mobile Weapons Platforms (aka Super Robots)
The Super Robots giant versions of the standard military mecha, with an arsenal of
fantastic super-powered weapons, and extremely resistant to damage. Each SMWP
are one-of-a-kind as opposed to the mass produced standard mechs. As an alternative to
nuclear weaponry, SMWPs were designed to generate as much kinetic energy as tactical
ordnance. They are built to match the estimated scale of Kaiju, and have a mix of hand-
to-hand, close-quarters weapons such as swords and ranged weapons. In order to prevent
damage to major cities, SMWPs are often deployed from their respective M-Bases into
the neighbouring harbours or oceans of cities that hug the coastlines. Though they fight at
a disadvantage in the water, a SMWP 's priority is to prevent Kaiju from crossing the
Miracle Mile, the last-ditch perimeter within a few miles offshore. Should a Kaiju bypass
a SMWP and cross the ten-mile line, it becomes difficult to stop a Kaiju from reaching
the land. As such, unavoidable combat that occurs within populated cities creates equal, if
not more damage to the surrounding environment.

Equipment present in all SMWPs
Automatic Pilot: The automatic navigation system has the capability to plot and control
travel to any preprogrammed destination.

Collision Warning System: Detects anything moving within a 10 mtr radius of the
mech.

Combat Computer: Calculates, stores and transmits data onto a heads up display.
Typically tied into the units targeting computer. Can hold hundreds of entries about
various enemies and robots/power armour/aircraft/vehicles. Assists in selecting and
locking on to enemy targets. +1 to Thac0 using ranged weapons.

Damage Control Repair: When the robot is damaged the pilot can take a turn to attempt
to use the automatic repair system to fix it, with each successful roll repairing D20 SDC
or 1 system. This is tied to the Robot’s DCR or Damage Control Repair. To do this he
decides how many DCR points he assigns to each repair, with the amount of points used
equaling the percentage chance that the repair will succeed. If the roll is equal to or less
than the number of DCR points allotted to that repair then the damage is erased. If the roll
is higher than the number of points allotted then it is unsuccessful and cannot be repaired
in the field. Other systems also can be repaired using the robot's DCR, as many as the
pilot wants, so long as still has DCR points to allocate. The entire DCR can be applied to
each repair. One roll is allowed every 30 minutes.

Ejection System: Ejects crew module out from the robot in emergency circumstances.
System typically ejects the occupants about 300 mtrs to parachute safely away.

Emergency Beacon: GPS emergency SOS repeater lasting 1 month.

External Audio Pick-up system: Sound amplification listening systems that can pick up
a whisper at a range of 90 mtrs away and louder sounds at longer distances.

Hardened Circuits: The robot's electrical and computer circuits have been hardened to
withstand the effects of EMPs

Loudspeaker: Loudspeaker system that amplifies and projects the pilot's voice up
to 90 decibels.

Mecha Myomere: This is a specially designed artificial analog of biological muscles

with a greater strength to weight ratio. They are engaged with electrical current and its
strength depends on the amount of fibres activated, not the current provided. They have
high electrical resistance, channeling and discharging any excess into the ground. These
artificial muscles are what allows a mech to move its arms and legs in a humanoid way.

Optics Package: This includes a Thermo Imager and Night Vision up to 500 mtrs. Flare
protection. Cameras located all around the top of the mech so the pilot can see in all

92
directions including above and below. Digital video and audio recording, and Telescopic
Vision up to 1km.

Radar: Can identify up to 100 and track up to 50 targets simultaneously to a range of

100kms for airborne targets and 40kms for ground targets depending on terrain.

Radio Communications: Long-range direction communication systems with video

telecast capabilities out to a range of 700kms that can be boosted if proper signal towers
or relay systems are in place or via use of satellite. Also a directional short-range radio
with a range of 30kms. Both radios have full encryption capabilities.

Rotating Parts: Head, shoulders, hands at wrist, and upper torso at waist, can rotate in a
360 degree circle.

Sealed Cockpit: A crew cabin that is airtight and comes with an onboard air circulation
supply, and air system. Suitable in space, underwater and against gas attacks. It has a
computer controlled life support system that includes: internal cooling and temperature
control, air purification and circulation systems (gas filtration, humidifier/dehumidifier)
that engages when needed and can recirculate breathable air for up to 4 days if necessary,
computer controlled independent oxygen supply and purge system that has up to 6 hours
of breathable air that automatically engages in low oxygen or contaminated air
environments, insulated high temperature resistant shielding for up to 300 degrees
centigrade (normal fires do no damage though nuclear, and plasma fires do full damage),
radiation shielded up to several hundred rads, and polarized and light sensitive/adjusting
tinted viewport. The control seat doubles as a short range emergency escape device for 1
person.

Spotlights: High intensity spotlights, that can shine on objects up to 180 mtrs away.
There are usually two.

Standard Instrumentation: Speedometer, distance travelled, inertial mapping system

(zeroed on your deployment location/home base), power system temperature,
ammunition counters, radar lock warning, GPS, gyro compass, friend or foe
identification, damage assessment indicators.

Cargo
The chassis consists of a reinforced steel framework with two upper load-bearing points
for the arms. A hydrogen fuel cell is mounted on the back of the frame, providing up to
65 kW of power for the loader. The articulated legs are attached by two semi-universal
bearings on either side of the base of the chassis, allowing up to 60 degrees of 'x' axis (hip
swivel) movement; just below these are a set of knee bearings. Leg motions at the hip are
controlled by a pair of 20 kW linear motors actuated via a fast-feedback loop slaved to
the operator's movements. Below the hip, hydraulic actuators extend from the main load-
bearing points to the aft sections of the legs, providing 'z' axis (fore/aft) movement at the
knee joints while pitch control is handled by a second series of actuators at the ankles. To
prevent toppling while stationary and under load, the chassis is gyrostabilized. These
gyros can be rotated rapidly out of phase in order to 'decouple' the chassis stabilization
system along the determined axes of motion and provide the necessary instability
required for bipedal movement. For very heavy lifting work, additional stability can be
provided by bolting up to 250 kg of concrete ballast to the underside of the chassis.

The loader's arms are attached to the very top of the chassis by a pair of complex
universal bearings stressed to operate under loadings of up to 4 tons. Arm motions in the
'y' and 'z' axes are controlled by linear motors while movement in the 'x' axis and at the
elbows is powered by a series of hydraulic actuators. The limbs mount a set of vise
manipulators that are capable of full 360° rotation. Most common industrial storage
mediums are fitted with uniform, purpose-made grips that can easily interface with it's
claws. Typically, one jaw of each vise is placed under the object to be lifted while the
other jaw clamps down on top of the object, holding it firmly and securely. Manipulator
function is controlled from an operator handgrip/joystick combination situated on the
inside of each limb. Attachment points for additional tools (such as cutters and welders)
are located on the manipulators.

Propulsion Systems
Solar/electric engine
Driving Speed: 30 kph (empty), 20 kph (loaded)

To work a loader, an operator first backs into the machine, buckling themselves in with
the webbing harness. A roll cage is pulled down to provide protection for the head and
torso, while feet are secured with straps. Powerup and system diagnostics are handled by
a punch keypad built into the operator's handgrips. This keypad also controls any
additional external tools fitted to the machine.

129
When powered up, the loader is slaved to the operator's limb movements, duplicating
their walking and lifting motions almost exactly. Response time to operator input is
almost instantaneous, while sophisticated computer controls dampen any system induced
'twitches' or oscillations that arise out of involuntary operator movement. Problems are
only likely to arise if the loader is walking or reaching at full extension, as the system is
likely to enhance movement beyond the fine-tuning capabilities of the operator; standard
operating procedures typically forbid operators from performing such maneuvers.

If operating over rough ground, the loader will provide feedback cues to the operator to
help them keep his or her footing. However, owing to it's high lifting capacity and
relatively small foot area, operations with very heavy loads on soft ground are not
recommended, as the extreme downward pressure generated underfoot can cause the unit
to literally bury itself in the ground. Automatic lockout systems will generally prevent
any movement that will topple the loader, and the system has generally proved safe to use
over all but the most treacherous terrain. As with any lifting device, there are strict
guidelines regarding weight limits that the loader can handle.

Weapons
None but a swiping glance from the loader’s pincers will do 2D6 +10 blunt damage, and
a direct hit will 4D6 +10 blunt damage (or crushing damage if closing the pincers on an
object).

Floater Class Cargo Mover

The floater is a very small hover vehicle capable of lifting 500 kilograms up to seven
metres above the ground. The platform is circular, with a one metre high safety railing
encircling the platform's upper surface. Height, direction, and speed of the floater are
controlled by an operator seated toward the vehicle's rear. The floater is most commonly
used for inspecting the exteriors of large objects, such as buildings or mechs. It can
maintain a max speed of 50 kph for 10 hours of continuous use.

damage is erased. If the roll is higher than the number of points allotted then it is
unsuccessful and cannot be repaired in the field. Other systems also can be repaired
using the robot's DCR, as many as the pilot wants, so long as still has DCR points to
allocate. The entire DCR can be applied to each repair. One roll is allowed every 30
minutes.

Section 11: S.H.A.D.O.W.
(The Strategic Hazard
Alien Defence Operatives
Watchguard)
S.H.A.D.O.W. is a secret military
organization conceived by the security
council of the United Nations. It was
founded in 1965 to defend Earth against
UFO attacks, after the first confirmed
encounter between the people of Earth
and a vehicle of extra-terrestrial origin.
This UFO incident triggered a series of
secret international meetings, as the
world's governments were informed of
the definite existence of unidentified
flying objects. On the way to one of
these meetings, a military convoy
containing Russian Colonel Kurtinov
and American General Prospero was
attacked by a UFO. Only the Colonel
survived the ambush and his subsequent
investigations proved that the UFOs
were of alien origin, hostile, and that
they posed a threat. The UN security
council agreed to work together and
create an organization to defend the
earth. Thus U.N.I.T.T, was formed and
very quickly its first suborganization
was created; the Strategic Hazard Alien
Defence Operatives Watchguard or
S.H.A.D.O.W. which would deal
specifically with extraterrestrial threats.
By 1975 S.H.A.D.O.W. was fully
operational with its main headquarters
situated in both Mt Rushmore and
Siberia. It was decided that
S.H.A.D.O.W. would always receive
the newest and most cutting edge in
technology. This would apply to both
equipment and vehicles. Some
equipment came from captured alien
technology and the rest from M.S.I. and
MetaTech.
In 1989 a small island appeared through
an interdimensional gateway off the
coast of South Australia. The Australian
army proved unable to secure it due to
the supernatural terrors within. Finally a
joint MetaTech/Justice Anonymous
taskforce succeeded in reaching the
centre of the island where they located
the wreck of a spacecraft. Within it they
discovered 30 foot monsters which
disorientated and afraid went on a
rampage obliterating most of the ship
and the strike force. The creatures then
moved on to the Kanto region of Japan
where they destroyed everything in
sight, then simply left and returned to the
island. As the monsters seemed to
become docile, no further action was
taken against them. Instead a group of
scientists were sent to study the island
and its inhabitants, to be protected by a
small S.H.A.D.O.W. garrison. It was
dubbed Terror Island.
In 1990 the second War of the Worlds
took place. The Martians were repelled
but all S.H.A.D.O.W. bases were
destroyed. Civilian deaths during the two
week war were surprisingly minimal but
S.H.A.D.O.W. suffered 80% losses.
Various hero groups were also
decimated. The Martian's critical error
was in attacking Terror Island for the
energy sources they detected there.
148
Instead the monster inhabitants
massacred the bulk of the Martians
allowing earth forces to mop up the rest.
In the aftermath of the invasion
S.H.A.D.O.W.’s horrendous losses in
both manpower and resources led to
morale reaching an all time low.
S.H.A.D.O.W. had to be reorganized and
reinvented. Plans were drawn up for a
mobile flying airbase and orbital
stations. An ultra tech flying aircraft
carrier was built to serve as the new
S.H.A.D.O.W. headquarters (dubbed
Sky Shadow).
Further it was deemed necessary to
create an outer defence system. This
eventually consisted of building a base
located on the moon (Moon Shadow),
where 6 aerospace fighters (Destiny
Fighters) can counter the UFOs as they
come to Earth. The alien craft are
detected by one of three orbital stations
(Sword of Damocles) also built which
would likewise warn Sky Shadow. Any
UFOs that aren't destroyed by the
fighters can be taken care of by the earth
defenses. The main one consisting of a
fleet of submersible aircraft carriers (Sea
Shadow's) which roam the oceans. If and
when a UFO enters earth's atmosphere,
S.H.A.D.O.W. fighter planes
(Archangels) launch from a Sea Shadow
or Sky Shadow to attempt to destroy the
UFO. If it still manages to elude them
and land, it will be tracked down and
destroyed by S.H.A.D.O.W. tanks
(Shadow Hunters).
It was then decided Terror island would
be handed over to S.H.A.D.O.W. to
become their new land based
headquarters. Accordingly
S.H.A.D.O.W. was then renamed the
Strategic Hazard Alien Defence
Operatives Watchguard with their island
being renamed Shadow Island.
Administration
This section comprises the
S.H.A.D.O.W. community section,
Administration and Personnel, Education
and the Security Response Squad.
Combat Services
This section is purely reactionary and
not pro-active, primarily because of
financial restraints. It has four divisions -
Land, Sea, Air and Space.
S.H.A.D.O.W. ground forces are based
on all major land masses in the world
and possess the latest in high tech
weaponry. This division is one of the
more hazardous as the ground forces use
the guise of the local military to avoid
detection. As far as the locals are
concerned, it's just another exercise. In
certain world zones failure to comply
with normal troop movements has led to
problems.
Water defence consists of a fleet of
undersea aircraft carriers. Fighters can
be launched once the carriers surface.
The four quadrants of the globe must be
covered at any one time. There are some
water restriction zones.
S.H.A.D.O.W. has developed stealth
technology to a new level, well beyond
the capabilities of the ordinary military.
Their attack aircraft are based in
concealed hangers on S.H.A.D.O.W.
properties in participating countries,
with fighter crews on twenty-four hour
alert. Aerospace pilots are stationed on
lunar base and the Orbital Platforms
strategically placed around the Earth.
149
Intelligence
This section is commanded by Col.
Michael Reese. This area of
S.H.A.D.O.W. consists of the
Undercover Operatives and Data
Processors. Undercover operatives are
located through every fabric of society
on all continents in the known world.
The only means of identifying these
operatives is with an implant scanner. It
is feasible that operatives mix with each
other every day and do not know of the
other's existence. The main interest
groups targeted are governments and
their agencies, business corporations,
alien infiltration and certain individuals.
All their findings and submissions go
through the data processors. Data
processors collate and assess all
information gathered by the undercover
agents. This information is then
channeled to the appropriate
organization or individual in
S.H.A.D.O.W.
Medical
Operatives are stationed in all major
hospitals throughout the world. Also a
hospital is situated at S.H.A.D.O.W. for
any captured alien, hybrid human or
other interesting life forms.
S.H.A.D.O.W. personnel are treated here
and certain other practices of a highly
sensitive nature take place here. The
implantation process is conducted here.
Captured individuals are also retained
here for a short period. What happens to
them is only known to a handful of
individuals. These teams also deal with
viral outbreaks, major traumas from
alien attacks, the finding of hybrid
humans and alien beings. Wherever
these events may occur, or any medical
trauma S.H.A.D.O.W. deems a threat to
humanity will see the combat teams
mobilized. These teams are trained in all
aspects of modern earth medicine and
also have a degree of extra-terrestrial
knowledge.
R&D
This section fights a continual battle to
develop and compete with alien
technology and stay ahead of possible
developments on Earth. Needless to say
these are the most advanced laboratories
on the planet. They are able to intercept
any computer breaches or virus's known.
It is also here that information is spread
onto the internet. The information is
usually false, but credible. They
maintain a massive 'firewall' to protect
S.H.A.D.O.W.'s security secrets.
Computer traffic is continually
monitored for hints of alien infiltration.
Anything suspicious or dangerous and
the entire organization involved is likely
to vanish behind the firewall.
Operations
S.H.A.D.O.W. remains the planet's
largest and most effective force for
neutralizing threats to world security and
combating alien infiltration. The bulk of
S.H.A.D.O.W.'s operations are covert,
but a number involve public activities.
Domestic matters falling under the
jurisdiction of the militia are coordinated
jointly, with S.H.A.D.O.W. taking full
control. All covert operations are
automatically S.H.A.D.O.W.'s province,
making unnecessary coordination with
the armed forces. Unlike the various
national intelligence agencies such as the
CIA, Mossad and M-16, S.H.A.D.O.W.
is international in membership, scope
and jurisdiction.
Most of the world's countries participate
in S.H.A.D.O.W. and sanction its
activities on their soil. S.H.A.D.O.W. is
fighting the clock to gather intelligence,
150
identify, assess and respond to the alien S.HA.D.O.W. Agent
presence on earth. S.H.A.D.O.W. both
collates data and deals with alien
invaders. S.H.A.D.O.W. has already
identified numerous types of alien life
forms. Some are hostile, others aren't.
S.H.A.D.O.W.'s standard operating
procedure encompasses state of the art
surveillance technology (including spy
satellites) as well as long term
undercover agents stationed in strategic
places such as certain industrial,
governmental, and military
establishments. This surveillance data is
fed to the headquarters of the nearest
Major, who dispatches top priority
material to S.H.A.D.O.W.'s central
command.

Local low priority matters are generally

handled by the Majors without
Kurtinov's participation. Matters of top
priority (those threatening world
security, involving extraterrestrials, or
endangering in excess of 10,000 lives)
were under the jurisdiction of
S.H.A.D.O.W.'s central command and
Kurtinov himself.

S.H.A.D.O.W. now has secret

installations all over the world. The
nature of the work makes it a security
and logistical nightmare for Kurtinov.
The increase in size has meant that the
organization is now incorporated into
secure sections buried deep with the
armed forces of the countries under their
protection. Like all military bases, these
sections are closed communities with
their own housing, schooling and social
amenities.

clothing
.
The character gains 20 Points to spend
on any of the following abilities. As they
153
earn more experience they may buy or
rebuy more abilities.
Blurred Attack
Cost: 5
The character can pull out a weapon
without it counting as an action. This
means you can draw and initiate combat
as a single attack. He may then shoot a
number of times equal to his number of
attacks in a single shot (eg. if you have 6
attacks you can fire 6 shots per attack
round). Or this may be used with thrown
weapons which likewise have a skill in.
Contacts
Cost: 5
The player may have 1 contact per 5 MA
within the UN and various world
governments. The player should
determine this with the GM. Add an
equal amount of contacts each time
rebought.
Focused Shot
Cost: 5
When using a ranged weapon you may
sacrifice all your attacks for an
additional +1 to hit per attack you lost
(eg. 4 attacks = +4 strike). When using
this no other actions are possible during
that melee.
Inured to pain
Cost: 5
The character has an incredibly high
pain threshold. +1 to stun and trauma.
Unfortunately he doesn't notice most
minor injuries, including bleeding.
KO
Cost: 5
The character has an unusually hard,
powerful punch. His blows do an
additional +1 damage (+1 each time
rebought) and a Knock out on a 20
(drops by 1 each time rebought).
Presence
Cost: 5
The character has an iron will and
radiates an aura of confidence and
authority, +1 to reaction. He is immune
to intimidation.

Moon Shadow and Space Vehicles

Located in the Moon crater Plato and constructed out of quarried rock and ores, Moon
Shadow is four kilometres in diametre and extends up to one kilometre in areas below the
lunar surface. The complex extends outward from the central Main Mission tower in a
series of concentrically-arranged curved structures connected by travel-tube transit
tunnels. Apart from the central tower, the surface buildings are two to three stories in
height. It is encircled by a 1 kilometre high transparent dome made of Glasteel.

All of S.H.A.D.O.W.'s advanced satellite tracking equipment is housed here, and is under
constant threat from aliens, as the destruction of this installation would make the Earth
vulnerable to attack. There are emergency plans to deal with such a catastrophe, but the
base's destruction would allow the aliens time to enter the atmosphere, before the plans
took effect. The main Hawk and Eagle fleets and maintenance area are also located here,
as well as ground based missile launchers and tanks. S.H.A.D.O.W. personnel travel to
the Moonbase in modified Eagle shuttles.

Moon Shadow is totally self-sustaining. Power is generated by four fusion reactors and
the accumulation of solar energy. Earth-normal artificial gravity is generated by eight
subterranean generators surrounding the complex. Water is obtained from ice deposits
under the lunar surface, recycled and purified.

The expansive Main Mission, as viewed from the Command Office, is the primary
control centre of Moon Shadow. The operations and living areas are both functional and
spacious (unlike early space capsules and Earth-orbiting stations). Main Mission, the
control centre of the installation, is a massive, multi-leveled room. Opening into Main
Mission from behind large sliding doors is the Command Office, which includes a large
conference and conversation area. Corridors run eight feet wide throughout the base and

164
the pipes and wiring trunks that festooned the walls of previous ocean-going military
vessels and spacecraft are concealed behind four-foot-by-eight-foot modular panels.
All personnel have their own suite of rooms in the Residence Section with sitting room,
sleeping alcove and private bathroom. Suites with a separate, larger bedroom are
available to married staff members. Personnel also have the option to live with a
roommate if desired. The Recreation Section boasts a gymnasium, private work-out
rooms, a solarium with adjacent sauna and swimming pool, bowling alley, performing-
arts theatre and separate cinema, and a reference library with both real books and
electronic equivalents. Recreation lounges and restaurants are scattered throughout the
complex.

Several buildings are given over to research in a number of scientific fields including
astronomy, geology, chemistry, biology and astrophysics. Others are devoted to the
Technical and Maintenance Sections and are responsible for the repair and upkeep of
Moonbase and its many complex systems. The Eagle transporters and other ancillary
craft are maintained and stored in an underground hangar complex. The Medical Section
occupies an entire building underground included several large wards, trauma, casualty
and diagnostic units, intensive care wards and operating theatres.

The base is protected by both a force shield and a complement of offensive laser batteries
which have been installed around the complex. These large weapons are stored
underground and raised to the surface when deployed. They are controlled from the
Weapons Section, a small, bunker-like room.

Moon Shadow has one commanding officer, assigned by the UN security council, whose
function is as administrator and co-coordinator of all operations in the facility. This
commander has unlimited access to all areas of Moon Shadow. The central computer
Alpha One is programmed to accept and obey all Command orders from this individual
short of those instructions which would threaten the safety of the base.

No unauthorized bases, vehicles or personnel are allowed within 50 kilometres of the

base.

Main Mission/Command Centre

Main Mission personnel include the operations and administrative staff on Alpha. The
second-in-command is designated 'Main Mission Controller' and functions as senior
supervisor of the operatives assigned to the control centre. There is also an
administrative/office staff to perform the bureaucratic tasks that any organization requires
to function—human resources, paymaster, record keeping, etc. "Main Mission" itself is
the command and control area. It is situated at the hub of the base in a prominent tower
structure some levels above the lunar surface.

Technical Section
The largest department, Technical encompasses the computing staff, technicians
overseeing the functioning of the nuclear reactors and environmental systems, aerospace

165
and rocket propulsion engineers, general maintenance crews, mining personnel and, as a
sub-department, the Research Section's scientific staff.

Service Section
Service encompasses data analysts, clerical staff, the botanists and technicians tending
the hydroponic farms and botanical research units, as well as the kitchen, laundry and
janitorial personnel.

Reconnaissance Section
Reconnaissance Section astronauts fly the Eagles and other ancillary Moonbase craft.
They also frequently operate in Main Mission/Command Centre as flight controllers
during survey and reconnaissance missions. Reconnaissance works in conjunction with
Technical Section to assure the Eagles transporters are constantly checked, maintained
and on stand-by for immediate action.

Medical Section
Medical encompasses the physician and nursing staff, plus medical orderlies and
laboratory technicians—twenty-five persons in all. Scientific and support personnel can
be drawn from the Research Section as needed. The main tasks of Medical Section are: to
maintain the physical and psychological health of all personnel and to carry out
experimentation upon all factors affecting humans residing in space, i.e. human life-
science and psychology experiments. Medical maintains stretcher teams for internal first
aid emergencies, while Medical Rescue Units perform the same function on space
missions. There is also a surgical team of doctors to deal with life threatening injuries.
Alpha One monitors the physiological health of the entire population via wrist monitors
worn by every individual staff member. In the event of high physiological stress or death
of a staff member, Alpha One will offer a verbal and hardcopy warning to the medical
staff on duty.

Security Section
Security guards are on stand-by to control internal disciplinary problems, sentry duty at
strategic or restricted areas, defense functions during survey and reconnaissance missions
and search-and-rescue missions. All guards carry stun-guns and sometimes rifles or small
missile launchers when the situation allows. They are trained as space arms specialists.
Defense teams are deployed during red alerts to strategic areas throughout the complex
and usually consist of two to four guards.

166
Travel Tubes

Travel tubes provide rapid transit between the various sections of the base and to and
from the Launch pads via a cylindrical travel capsule which contains seating for up to 8
seated passengers plus up to another 10 standing. Easy access to and from main corridors
and reception areas is via double-sliding doors on either side of the capsule. Access to the
launch pad is through the end door, which opens directly into the boarding tube. There is
the capacity for the occupants to suspend motion in mid-travel with an emergency stop
button. The travel-tube tunnels are pressurized with normal Moon Shadow atmosphere.

167
Hangars

There is 1 hangar for each Eagle and Hawk launch pad. Each hangar can house up to 20
Eagles or Hawks respectively. Every hangar is also connected to each other via long
cargo transport tunnels.

Eagles and Hawks are moved by cargo transporters from the hangar to the transport pad.

168
The transport pad then moves the Eagle to the launch pad elevator.

Shield
In emergencies Moon Shadow can activate a massive forcefield that completely
encompasses the base when activated. It protects Moon Shadow from anything ranging
from orbital bombardment, to meteor strikes, to solar flares. The shield can take up to
2000 damage per round, with anything over passing through. It can be maintained for up
to 5 hours of continuous use before depleting its generators. It would then need at least
one hour to fully recharge.

Cannon Towers
These large tower based laser battery weapons are capable of being hidden and spring
forth as needed. While potent static weapon defenses, these gun posts are capable of
being destroyed by fighter weapons. They are designed as anti-fighter weapons, able to
fire rapidly and track fast moving targets.
Damage: D20 x 100
Range: 5 kms
Rate of Fire: 1 round per second
Ammunition: 1 hour of continuous fire before the generators are depleted, requiring
another hour to recharge.

169
Launch Pads, Eagles

There are 12 launch pads around the base which have extending/retracting boarding tubes
via the reception building for access to the Eagles and visiting spaceships. These launch
pads are circular but have descending cross-platforms that lower the Eagles into the
underground area where they are then moved to the transport pad for shifting to the
hangars for storage and maintenance.

170
Launch Pads, Hawks

There are 4 launch pads exclusively for the Hawks around the base. This is in order to
facilitate a rapid launch response to alien incursions.

171
Orbital Satellite

Vehicle Type
A vital component in Moon Shadow's tracking and communications systems is its orbital
satellite. Situated in a high lunar orbit, the satellite acts as a radar and sensor-tracking
station as well as a transmitter relay and observation platform. As well as providing the
first warning of a an extraterrestrial vehicle approaching from deep space, it can also
track any craft flying in the Earth's atmosphere. It provides targeting coordinates for the
Hawks and Archangels, and communicates with Moon Shadow, the orbital platforms and
earth.

between the earth and the moon. Although not capable of reaching outer planets on their
own the shuttles could certainly be transported by larger, interstellar craft and be used to
descend to planets and return to a Mothership.

Completely modular, the craft are divided into three basic sections: the command
module, the passenger module/service pod, and the superstructure (containing the landing
gear, access corridor/galley, aft compartment, fuel tanks and main propulsion system).
The command module of the Shuttle can detach from the main body enabling it to dock
with another compatible craft or for use as an emergency escape capsule. Several types of
pods could be used, depending on the mission. They are stationed at Moon Shadow and
all the orbital stations.

Equipment
Shuttles are piloted by an astronaut and employs both the onboard and Moonshadow
computer systems for guidance, astronavigation, and interpretation of sensor data. The
right seat in the cockpit is usually occupied by a copilot, although the shuttle can
normally be handled by a single operator. In an emergency, when both pilots are
incapacitated, a shuttle may be operated from a slave-station in Moonshadow or from
earth.

Automatic Pilot: The automatic navigation system has the capability to plot and control
travel to any preprogrammed destination.

Collision Warning System: Detects anything moving within a 100 mtr radius.

Countermeasures: Chaff and flares are fired off a plane to distract radar-guided or heat
guided missiles from their targets. On a roll of 1-15 on a D20 each chaff or flare is
successful in removing a tailing missile.

Damage Control Repair: When the vehicle is damaged the pilot can take a turn to
attempt to use the automatic repair system to fix it, with each successful roll repairing
D20 Hit Points damage or 1 system. This is tied to the vehicle’s DCR or Damage Control
Repair. To do this he decides how many DCR points he assigns to each repair, with the
amount of points used equaling the percentage chance that the repair will succeed. If the
roll is equal to or less than the number of DCR points allotted to that repair then the
damage is erased. If the roll is higher than the number of points allotted then it is
unsuccessful and cannot be repaired in the field. Other systems also can be repaired

180
using the robot's DCR, as many as the pilot wants, so long as still has DCR points to
allocate. The entire DCR can be applied to each repair. One roll is allowed every 30
minutes.

Ejection System: Ejects crew module out from the plane in emergency circumstances.
System typically ejects the occupants about 300 mtrs to parachute safely away.

Emergency Beacon: GPS emergency SOS repeater lasting 1 month.

Optics Package: This includes a Thermo Imager and Night Vision up to 500 mtrs. Flare
protection. Cameras located all around the top of the vehicle so the pilot can see in all
directions including above and below. Digital video and audio recording, and Telescopic
Vision up to 1km.

Radar: Can identify up to 100 and track up to 50 targets simultaneously to a range of

100kms for airborne targets and 40kms for ground targets depending on terrain.

purification and circulation systems (gas filtration, humidifier/dehumidifier) that engages
when needed and can recirculate breathable air for up to 5 days if necessary, computer
controlled independent oxygen supply and purge system, insulated high temperature
resistant shielding for up to 100 degrees centigrade (normal fires do no damage though
nuclear, and plasma fires do full damage), radiation shielded up to several hundred rads,
and polarized and light sensitive/adjusting tinted viewport.

Spotlights: High intensity spotlights, that can shine on objects up to 180 mtrs away.
There are two in front.

Standard Transporter Pod

The standard passenger module, provides maximum seating space for eight passengers in
addition to the pilot and co-pilot. Under emergency conditions (such as total evacuation),
they can carry up to twelve passengers. Transporters are used for missions on the lunar
surface, in lunar orbit, and in interstellar space in the general vicinity of Moonbase; or on
routine planetary landings when no hostile elements are anticipated and the contact team
deems special laboratory or environmental equipment unnecessary.

Freighter Pod

These are used to transport supplies and equipment rather than passengers. The cargo pod
can hold up to 500 tons.

Air Vehicles
Sky Shadow 1

Vehicle Type
S.H.A.D.O.W.'s airborne aircraft carrier is now the major mobile headquarters of the
entire organization. Sky Shadow is a huge flying aircraft carrier which cruises the
stratosphere at an approximate altitude of 15 kilometres. It hovers by means of four large
fusion powered hover lift engines which are mounted on pylons outboard of the flight
deck. Sky Shadow has a number of jet engines which are employed for horizontal flight.
The carrier can maintain secure communications in times of world crisis with strategic
military bases throughout the globe. Sky Shadow is also a major link in the Defence
Communications System which incorporates everything from ground lines to satellites.
The carrier is armoured with a triple hull of 5-inch hardened alloy, then a 12-inch layer of
high-speed fragment suppressor, and finally another layer of hardened armour. The
internal bracing and construction is rigid enough to permit Sky Shadow to alight on land
or water. The carrier's primary role is land and space surveillance and is manned by
highly trained electronic intelligence personnel.

Sky Shadow has a fully-sealed, pressurized environment as the air at such height is
unbreathable, and the external temperature is between sixty to eighty degrees below zero.
Because of the risks of decompression, which would be fatal to crew members and have a
disastrous effect on the vessel, Sky Shadow personnel cannot open any external access
hatches without permission from Central Control. Personnel assigned to work on Sky
Shadow must have undergone basic training for altitude proficiency, as it can take time to
adjust to life onboard. It is common for newly-assigned personnel to experience fatigue
and nausea, for a short time.

202
The Bridge/Combat Information Centre, Combat Operations Centre, and Air Traffic
Control Tower are located on the flight deck. Along with the hanger deck, they are the
aircraft carrier aspect of the carrier. The forward half of the carrier contains the Battle
Command Centre, the Command/Observation World Monitor Centre, and the vast
computer equipment which supports the ELINT and the carrier in general. The aft below
segment of Sky Shadow contains the World Watch Situation Display Room,
S.H.A.D.O.W.'s non-military, intelligence gathering and field agent clearing centre. Sky
Shadow is also equipped with an Inter Continental Ballistic Missile (range of 5600kms,
or the ability to achieve low earth orbit) which is variably programmable and payloaded
to perform a number of special duty, clandestine, and crisis oriented functions. It was
installed in the event of another extraterrestrial confrontation, would be able to provide
the communications support of placing a satellite package in orbit after the primary
satellites had been incapacitated.

Sky Shadow is also hardened against nuclear electromagnetic pulses (EMP: the nuclear
weapon detonation-induced drifting of unwanted ions that leads to high voltage current
leakage paths and electronic circuit failure) to full Military Satellite Hardening
Specifications. It could resist 1.2 joules per centimetre squared of radiation per second.
Housing hundreds of agents and technicians, the carrier also serves as home to several
squadrons of Archangel Interceptor fighter aircraft, helicopters, and support craft. As a
final fail safe, the carrier initiates an automatic 24 hour self destruct sequence should any
hijack attempt be made.

Equipment
Automatic Pilot: The automatic navigation system has the capability to plot and control
travel to any preprogrammed destination.

Collision Warning System: Detects anything moving within a 100 mtr radius.

Countermeasures: Chaff and flares are fired off a plane to distract radar-guided or heat
guided missiles from their targets. On a roll of 1-15 on a D20 each chaff or flare is
successful in removing a tailing missile.

Damage Control Repair: When the vehicle is damaged the pilot can take a turn to
attempt to use the automatic repair system to fix it, with each successful roll repairing
D20 Hit Points damage or 1 system. This is tied to the vehicle’s DCR or Damage Control
Repair. To do this he decides how many DCR points he assigns to each repair, with the
amount of points used equaling the percentage chance that the repair will succeed. If the
roll is equal to or less than the number of DCR points allotted to that repair then the
damage is erased. If the roll is higher than the number of points allotted then it is
unsuccessful and cannot be repaired in the field. Other systems also can be repaired
using the robot's DCR, as many as the pilot wants, so long as still has DCR points to
allocate. The entire DCR can be applied to each repair. One roll is allowed every 30
minutes.

Emergency Beacon: GPS emergency SOS repeater lasting 1 month.

Escape Pods: There are 2850 escape pods situated around the sides. The interior is
spartan—passengers are expected to use the pod only for a few hours. Each pod seats two
people. Padded g-couches protect occupants from injury. They are fully automated so the
escape pod can land without a pilot at the controls. Also included is a radio with 100 km
range, and an emergency homing beacon repeater lasting 1 month with a 500 km range.

Optics Package: This includes a Thermo Imager and Night Vision up to 500 mtrs. Flare
protection. Cameras located all around the top of the vehicle so the pilot can see in all
directions including above and below. Digital video and audio recording, and Telescopic
Vision up to 1km.

Radar: Can identify up to 100 and track up to 50 targets simultaneously to a range of

100kms for airborne targets and 40kms for ground targets depending on terrain.

205
Radio Communications: Long-range direction communication systems with video
telecast capabilities out to a range of 2000kms that can be boosted if proper signal towers
or relay systems are in place or via use of satellite. Also a directional short-range radio
with a range of 100kms. Both radios have full encryption capabilities.

Sealed: The Sky Shadow is airtight and comes with an onboard air circulation supply,
and air system. Suitable in space, underwater and against gas attacks. It has a computer
controlled life support system that includes: internal cooling and temperature control, air
purification and circulation systems (gas filtration, humidifier/dehumidifier) that engages
when needed and can recirculate breathable air for up to 2 weeks if necessary, computer
controlled independent oxygen supply and purge system, insulated high temperature
resistant shielding for up to 100 degrees centigrade (normal fires do no damage though
nuclear, and plasma fires do full damage), radiation shielded up to several hundred rads,
and polarized and light sensitive/adjusting tinted viewport.

Spotlights: High intensity spotlights, that can shine on objects up to 180 mtrs away.
There are twenty in front, twenty behind and thirty per side.

Standard Equipment: Airlocks (7), Automated Hull Sealing, Computer Core, Crew
Cabins (2500), Cryogenic Chamber (1), Docking Clamp (5), Docking Hatches (2),
Elevators (5), Factory Module, Galley (2), Hangars (7), Hardened Circuits, Holding Cells
(20), Hydroponics, Internal Security Systems, Laboratory, Running Lights, Winch/Crane
(5 per hangar), Workshop

Sky Shadow’s main body is comprised of multiple decks, and includes two flight decks.
Principal sectors within the main body are, amongst others, the Engine Room, the life
support centre, the multiple hangars, the Medical Centre and the Pilot Ready Room.
The crew can move around the various sectors through a network of passageways,
moving walkways, stairs, lifts and escalators. Because the carrier might seem like a huge
maze in some areas, directional signs and diagrams are posted in strategic places. Most
passageways will eventually end up to the deck main access corridor, which encircle the
perimeter of each deck of the main body. A system of airlock accesses separates the
various sectors of Sky Shadow at strategic points. This way, any sector can be locked
down, in time of emergency, for example to contain a nuclear leak from the generators,
isolate a sector in case of a hull breach or an outbreak, or even to trap an enemy who
could have had access to the base. Some areas are restricted to certain personnel, and
security keys or coded are needed to access them.

Arch Angel pilots and administration staff will normally work on a four hours on
call/four hours off basis, with four hours on/two off in emergencies. In those times of
emergency, the crew can make use of the Hyper Sleep room, several of which are
scattered around the base. The Rooms are fitted with hypnotic devices, diffused lighting
and 'weightless' gimbal-mounted bed. It can cram height hours worth of sleep into a mere
hour or two, permitting the user to be fresh and ready to return to duty. Although a fully
operational military base, it is still equipped with the best facilities to make life as
agreeable as possible for all its residents. Personnel are provided with the best and

206
healthiest food, which are checked and prepared daily at the restaurant or cantina. Sports
halls, gymnasium and pools are provided to all, to indulge in their favourite sports and
physical activities, and special spaces were built for social interactions, pastimes
(reading, watching movies, playing games, etc.) or simply relaxation, such as the officers'
lounge, the crew's recreation rooms, cinema, auditorium, etc. The Promenade Deck and
the secondary Promenade Deck are also such spaces. These specially designed areas are
in fact, 'indoor gardens', decorated with a large variety of plants, flowers and bushes,
fountains and furnitures. Both located in the Control Tower, they are adorned with large
windows (some of the rare rooms built this way), thus providing a large amount of
sunlight for the plants to thrive and grow. The windows also gives a superb view to the
sky (especially at night) and to both landing strips below.

Needless to say, security is of the outmost importance on Sky Shadow. Extreme safety
measures were put into place to counter any events, either due to accidents or attacks.
Massive tanks of fire-extinguishing foam, carbon dioxide and halon are stored onboard,
mostly on the Control Tower, where they can be pumped anywhere around the base via
its extensive piping system in a matter of seconds. All sectors of Sky Shadow, from top to
bottom, are patrolled and maintained by various maintenance robots, whose function is to
either keep all areas clean or to monitor and repair all systems, insuring that everything
runs smoothy; the various ducts coursing through the carrier are also checked by such
maintenance robots. They are aided in their work by teams of technicians, working 24/7.
Repairs and replacement of faulty or worn out parts are done efficiently and in record
time, no matter if it should be serious or not.

Teams of guards are also available on Sky Shadow 24/7, to insure security onboard. They
perform various duties, such as patrolling the passageways, monitoring and restricting
access points, escorting visitors, etc. They assist officers on various occasions, and given
orders by any of themare allowed to make arrests and escort prisoners to the brig, where
they will keep guard.

Sky Shadow's surrounding airspace is monitored by radars, which in turn provides the
information to the Tower. Should an unauthorized craft approaches the carrier past the
security distance, and not obey radio requests to leave, the Arch Angel interceptors are
dispatched to intercept and repel the intruder, or even destroy it, should it become
necessary.

The Control Tower

The Control Tower houses the Command Centre, which is one of S.H.A.D.O.W.’s
operational nerve centre, as well as the craft's Control Room, computer databanks, main
communication centre and systems, information and observation centres, conference
room, etc. The Information Room uses advanced seventh generation super computers and
liquid plasma information storage systems to analyze and identify all transferred data,
sorted it, gauged it on importance values, and filed it for eventual uses, thus creating vast
amounts of information necessary for S.H.A.D.O.W.’s work. Any threat, coming from
extraterrestrials or any World-based terrorist organization, is reported, analyzed and
dealt with appropriately. Any part of Earth and its surrounding space can be scanned

207
through observation satellites. The radar can detect any object coming within a 1000 km
radius of Sky Shadow. Atop the Control Tower, an helipad was built, so to accommodate
landing of an helijet, which is usually used for VIP visitors or in case of emergency.
Access directly to the Tower is gained through a pressurized hatch, which leads near the
Control Room. The helijet doesn't normally park on top the Tower after disambarkment;
it will usually land on the main body runway, to either park there or access the hangar
below the flight deck. Within the Control Tower exists an auxiliary sickbay, which is
located below the Conference Room. It can be used as a back up unit during emergency
situations, should the Tower be isolated from the rest of Sky Shadow, or the Medical
Centre be working at full capacity or disabled.

Main Body
The Engine Room, generators, and most of Sky Shadow's power and life support
equipments are mostly located within the carrier's main body, which is divided in decks,
where are also located staff sleeping quarters, an auditorium, gymnasiums, conference,
seminar and lecture rooms, a cantina, and various other facilities for the staff. Hangars
are also located in the main body, for housing and repairing aircraft, helicopters and the
occasional visiting craft. Lifts are used to bring these craft up to or down from the main
runway just above. Sky Shadow's Medical Centre is, in effect, a small hospital, with all
the needed staff and the most advanced medical and scientific technology. The main body
is also composed of a second flight deck, specifically dedicated to the Arch Angel
interceptor jets launch and landing. Hangars and repair shops for the Angels are situated
beneath the runway, and again, lifts can be used to bring the craft down to the hangars,
repair shops and back onto the runway.

Flight Deck
Sky Shadow’s flight deck covers most of the surface of the main body. It is wide and
long enough to permit landing of all kind of craft, short of large international commercial
transporters, unless equipped with VTOL technology. Landing and take off can be
achieved vertically or the traditional way, depending of the craft. Like for a naval carrier,
the use of a cable arresting system is available for some type of aircraft, which landing
should be done the traditional way. Though the surface of the main flight deck is
accommodated with parking spaces for craft, the runway itself must always remain free,
so it can be used at a moment's notice. Upon landing, the craft is automatically taxied to
an hydraulic lift that will bring it down to one of the hangars below deck, which will
permit pilot and passengers to disembark and access into Sky Shadow without being
exposed to the harsh cold of high altitude. Once the craft is empty, it will be immediately
checked thoroughly, to make sure it will be in flight condition for its next use. Then,
depending of needs and situation, it can either stay in the hangar, or be brought back up
on deck with the lift, the same way it came, to be parked on one of the allotted spaces on
the starboard side of the carrier. Hangars and maintenance bay specifically dedicated for
the Angels aircraft are situated below the runway. A lift system, similar to what is found
on the main deck, can be used to take the interceptor down for maintenance, refueling, re-
arming and repairs. Spare parts are also kept in the maintenance bay, as well as three
standby Angel interceptors. The craft are constantly checked and re-checked by the
maintenance team and computer-controlled robots, ensuring that everything is at

208
maximum safety. Although it is a rare occurrence, it can be possible to put five
interceptors in the air, should the need arise for it. The Angel pilots ready room, is the
lowest part of Sky Shadow. It is situated on deck E, underneath the main body of the
carrier, at the very far end of the port side, below the Angels craft launching pad.

Medical Centre
The Medical Centre (or Sickbay) is one of the most important sectors of Sky Shadow. It
is run by a small team of doctors and nurses. The Sickbay is located on Deck C of Sky
Shadow's main body, on the starboard side, between the pylons supporting the Control
Tower. It is near the stern hover combine, giving it a close access to the Tower and to the
auxiliary sickbay therein. The Sickbay also has its own helicopter launching and landing
pad; generally, it is dedicated specifically to medicopters, but will also accept landing of
helijets. An hydraulic lift lowers the craft down to a hangar below, where there's a direct
access to a corridor leading to the medical facilities. This permits an injured patient to be
taken straight to the emergency operating theatre within minutes upon landing.
Additionally, the lift gives straight access to the flight decks, where security and medic
teams can quickly intervene, in case of a crash landing. Sky Shadow's Sickbay is a fully
operational hospital, with operating theatres, intensive care modules, isolation wards,
laboratories, decontamination units (located at several entrances), sleeping wards, etc. It
is equipped with the most sophisticated and state of the art in medical, science, research
and technology. Every member of the staff is required to have many medical specialties
so that Sky Shadow's sickbay could be as self-sufficient as possible in every field
imaginable. However, if a field is not covered by sickbay's doctors or if the need of
experts is required, contact can swiftly be made to ground-based hospitals for help.

Surgery can also be performed by such specialists, remotely, through the 'robot doctors'.
One of the most advanced tools used in sickbay, the ‘robot doctors’ (or 'auto docs') are
computerized medical beds are programmed with very advanced ‘near free minds’
capable of medical analysis and assessment. They can check on a patient’s needs,
producing required data in a matter of seconds, and are even able to make their own
prognostics and present solutions. The auto docs system incorporates scanner, laser
scalpels, mini video 3D cameras, and numerous other devices. As stated above, they can
be used to assist during surgery, either with the presence of a surgeon, or remotely, via
computer link. Operating table lighting is supplied via the centra hub of the auto doc.
Sickbay is also equipped with chemical analyzers (also called 'auto-analyzers'). These
devices can perform complex blood and toxin tests within seconds. The auto-analyzer is
often used in conjunction with the auto-pharmacist, which can synthesize anything from
headache pills to a cure for snake-bites in minutes. Another marvel of medical technology
is the life recovery unit, which is in fact a computer-aided operating table

Within Sky Shadow, Sickbay is a self-sufficient unit. Doctors and nurses reside within
the Medical Centre. It has its own laundry, food preparation bay, bathroom facilities, spa
and physiotherapy aids for the patient, and stores of various equipments and medications.
The whole unit is soundproof, specifically the various wards and operating theaters.
Although linked to Sky Shadow's main systems, it has its own computer centre and life

209
support systems, which are continually checked and monitored by its own computer
room, performing regular emergency memory back up in the event of a power failure.
Sickbay has a direct access to the sport centre, which is situated on the deck just above.
This helps provides better care to the patients, who can then perform needed exercises
during recovery, either on their own or under the supervision of a nurse, a doctor or a
physiotherapist. Like for all sections of Sky Shadow, security camera are installed in
sickbay, and from the command centre in the Tower, it is possible to even follow a
procedure in one of the operating theatres. Chemical analyzers (also called 'auto-
analyzers') can perform complex blood and toxin tests within seconds, while the Auto-
Pharmacist can synthesize anything from headache pills to a cure for snake-bites in
minutes.

Brig
As for any military base, Sky Shadow also comes with a brig, where prisoners can be
held temporarily, pending investigation and interrogation. The cells are accessible
through a 'Brig office', where a guard is posted at a desk, watching over the cell area
through various screens and other equipment. Personnel must check in before stepping
into the cell area through the security door. Should a problem occur, and in the event that
a prisoner should attempt to escape, the on-duty guard can hit a 'panic button' embedded
into his desk to set off the alarms and alert Central Control. Holding cells are small, about
a 100 square feet each, and are designed for temporary detainment only. Therefore, each
of them is equipped with only the most basic of comforts, affording nothing more than a
berth for the prisoner. Access to the cell is gained through the largest wall, which is
sealed by vertical laser bars when detaining a prisoner. Command of the bars is by
security code, through a control panel set against the wall, near the cell, (out of reach of
the prisoner), as well as with the help of a remote control.

Fitness suite
Open 24 hours a day for anyone who wishes to use it, the Sky Shadow Fitness Suite
occupies the midship section of both Accommodation Decks. It offers the most advanced
gym and sporting facilities for all sorts of sport activities, ranging from handball to
fencing. The A.I. Arena is equipped with state-of-the-art equipment for individuals
wishing to hone their hand-to-hand combat skills. Cybernetic opponents can be
programmed with the specifications required to meet the competence level of fighting
style of any member of the crew, with styles varying from Kung-Fu to kick-boxing.

Living areas
Personnel live twenty-four hours a day on Sky Shadow, so the carrier needs to provide
facilities that see to everyone's needs and comfort. Staff can take their meals at the
canteen, where they are provided with healthy and nutritious food, prepared by Sky
Shadow's own catering team, working in the kitchen. While it is only to be supposed that,
just like any other military carrier, general staff, such as technicians, guards, mechanics,
nurses, etc., would share quarters, because of the restricted room, officers are individually
allocated a personal space. This allows the officer to take some time to relax on his or her
own, or to work quietly. Outside each of the quarters, near the door, an electronic panel
gives information of the occupant, whether or not it is presently occupied, and if the

210
occupant is on duty or not. The entrance to each officer's quarters is set in a small alcove,
which gives privacy to the living and sleeping area. The quarters are relatively small, but
comfortable.

Some officers are lucky enough to even have a window. A bed is provided, of course,
with a small kitchenette, where the officer can cook a meal, as well as a bathroom
equipped with a shower. Various storage areas are available to the officer, where clothes,
books and other personal objects could be stored. A large screen is set at the foot of the
bed, providing the opportunity to view films, television and pictures, and also to serve as
a communication and working device. Officers are allowed to decorate their living area
with personal items, as long as these items do not clutter their quarters.

Sky Shadow 2

Vehicle Type
This is S.H.A.D.O.W.'s second airborne aircraft carrier. It is larger than Sky Shadow 1
and carries more aircraft but is not used in a command role unless Sky Shadow 1 is

Sky Shadow 2’s interior layout is almost identical to Sky Shadow 1 with it being divided
into decks, each of which has a specific function (such as Engineering, Kitchen,
Accommodation, Health Fitness, Medical Centre, Hangar, etc.). Access to security-
sensitive sections requires authorization either by keypad code, or thumbprint and iris
scans. There are also various security check points all around the base, where guards are
stationed, ready to offer assistance or intervene where necessary.

Tower
As with Sky Shadow 1 Central Control is located in the highest section, a tower, which is
situated above the external Flight Deck and is the most important part of the base. It is the
most secure area, accessible only to personnel with Level 9 Security Clearance or above,
and it can serve as backup to Sky Shadow 1.

Flight Deck
The Flight Deck occupies most of Sky Shadow’s upper surface. It is used as an
operations platform for S.H.A.D.O.W. aircraft. There are a total of four runways on the
Flight Deck: Runway 01 and Runway 02 run the entire length of the base, whilst
Runways 03 and 04 cross them diagonally. The Archangel Interceptors, which are the
spearhead of Sky Shadow’s defence, are launched from these runways, which are also

used for other air traffic. Because of the extreme external conditions, it is extremely risky
- if not impossible - for anyone to work on the Flight Deck without the proper equipment.
For this reason, ‘launch robots’ are used as on-deck air-traffic controllers. They relay
flight signals from their human counterparts within the Flight Control section. The
Launch Director, a human air-traffic controller, is surrounded by all of the instruments
needed to know exactly what is happening on the Flight Deck. He stands in an ‘energy
cabin’, and this relays all of his movements and instructions to the robot on-deck.

Set in the deck directly beneath the Flight Deck is the Hangar, which runs the full length
and breadth of Sky Shadow. The Hangar is the storage and maintenance area for all
onboard vehicles and aircraft. The Falcon Squadron, a Swift Passenger Jet, two Albatross
drop-ships, and several Rhinos and Stallion Raid Bikes are stored in the Hangar.
The lifts from the runways quickly take aircrafts to or from the Hangar. These lifts are in
correlation with the Magna-strip runways, and also form an integral part of the unique,
and fully-automated, system which re-arms, re-fuels and re-launches any Spectrum
aircraft. When an aircraft lands, and its shoes are caught by the magnetic rails of the
runway, the craft is brought to a halt on the circular lift, which then descends into the
Hangar, while rotating the aircraft 180 degrees to its correct Hangar position. Once an
Angel is in the Hangar, robotic arms automatically clamp onto its fuselage. The aircraft is
then swiftly moved along a new set of magnetic rails to the other end of the Hangar. At
the same time, the robotic servicing arms prepare the craft for its next flight, by cleaning
its engines and canopy, re-arming its guns and missiles, and refueling it. When it reaches
the other end of the Hangar, the Angel is settled onto a new circular lift and released from
the robotic arms. It is then rotated through 180 degrees once more, so that it is facing the
correct direction for its next take off.

Equipment
Automatic Pilot: The automatic navigation system has the capability to plot and control
travel to any preprogrammed destination.

Collision Warning System: Detects anything moving within a 100 mtr radius.

Countermeasures: Chaff and flares are fired off a plane to distract radar-guided or heat
guided missiles from their targets. On a roll of 1-15 on a D20 each chaff or flare is
successful in removing a tailing missile.

Damage Control Repair: When the vehicle is damaged the pilot can take a turn to
attempt to use the automatic repair system to fix it, with each successful roll repairing
D20 Hit Points damage or 1 system. This is tied to the vehicle’s DCR or Damage Control
Repair. To do this he decides how many DCR points he assigns to each repair, with the
amount of points used equaling the percentage chance that the repair will succeed. If the
roll is equal to or less than the number of DCR points allotted to that repair then the
damage is erased. If the roll is higher than the number of points allotted then it is
unsuccessful and cannot be repaired in the field. Other systems also can be repaired
using the robot's DCR, as many as the pilot wants, so long as still has DCR points to
allocate. The entire DCR can be applied to each repair. One roll is allowed every 30
minutes.

Emergency Beacon: GPS emergency SOS repeater lasting 1 month.

Escape Pods: There are 2700 escape pods situated around the sides. The interior is
spartan—passengers are expected to use the pod only for a few hours. Each pod seats two
people. Padded g-couches protect occupants from injury. They are fully automated so the
escape pod can land without a pilot at the controls. Also included is a radio with 100 km
range, and an emergency homing beacon repeater lasting 1 month with a 500 km range.

Optics Package: This includes a Thermo Imager and Night Vision up to 500 mtrs. Flare
protection. Cameras located all around the top of the vehicle so the pilot can see in all
directions including above and below. Digital video and audio recording, and Telescopic
Vision up to 1km.

Radar: Can identify up to 100 and track up to 50 targets simultaneously to a range of

100kms for airborne targets and 40kms for ground targets depending on terrain.

telecast capabilities out to a range of 2000kms that can be boosted if proper signal towers

219
or relay systems are in place or via use of satellite. Also a directional short-range radio
with a range of 100kms. Both radios have full encryption capabilities.

Sealed: The Sky Shadow is airtight and comes with an onboard air circulation supply,
and air system. Suitable in space, underwater and against gas attacks. It has a computer
controlled life support system that includes: internal cooling and temperature control, air
purification and circulation systems (gas filtration, humidifier/dehumidifier) that engages
when needed and can recirculate breathable air for up to 2 weeks if necessary, computer
controlled independent oxygen supply and purge system, insulated high temperature
resistant shielding for up to 100 degrees centigrade (normal fires do no damage though
nuclear, and plasma fires do full damage), radiation shielded up to several hundred rads,
and polarized and light sensitive/adjusting tinted viewport.

Spotlights: High intensity spotlights, that can shine on objects up to 180 mtrs away.
There are thirty in front, thirty behind and forty per side.

Equipment
Automatic Pilot: The automatic navigation system has the capability to plot and control
travel to any preprogrammed destination.

Collision Warning System: Detects anything moving within a 100 mtr radius.

Countermeasures: Chaff and flares are fired off a plane to distract radar-guided or heat
guided missiles from their targets. On a roll of 1-15 on a D20 each chaff or flare is
successful in removing a tailing missile.

Damage Control Repair: When the vehicle is damaged the pilot can take a turn to
attempt to use the automatic repair system to fix it, with each successful roll repairing
D20 Hit Points damage or 1 system. This is tied to the vehicle’s DCR or Damage Control
Repair. To do this he decides how many DCR points he assigns to each repair, with the
amount of points used equaling the percentage chance that the repair will succeed. If the
roll is equal to or less than the number of DCR points allotted to that repair then the
damage is erased. If the roll is higher than the number of points allotted then it is
unsuccessful and cannot be repaired in the field. Other systems also can be repaired
using the robot's DCR, as many as the pilot wants, so long as still has DCR points to
allocate. The entire DCR can be applied to each repair. One roll is allowed every 30
minutes.

Ejection System: Ejects crew module out from the plane in emergency circumstances.
System typically ejects the occupants about 300 mtrs to parachute safely away.

Emergency Beacon: GPS emergency SOS repeater lasting 1 month.

Shadowcopter Class Rapid Response Helicopter

Vehicle Type
This is an attack helicopter used by S.H.A.D.O.W. They are stationed on Sky Shadows,
on all the Sea Shadows and various bases around the world. It offers rapid transportation
over short distances and remains substantially unaffected by air turbulence. The
helicopter can be used on escorts, for transportation and for surveying or scouting. They
are very robust and rugged in construction, granting them the ability to land on virtually
any type of terrain with its standard, wheeled, retractable undercarriage, it can also land
on water if need be, thanks to retractable floats within the nose and side engine pods.
It can also be used to carry loads with the help of grappling hooks on the undercarriage.
While standard helicopters are limited by altitude and air thinness, the Shadowcopter can
count on jets in addition to its blades to reach Skybase. They offer superior air agility and
ascents and descents that are faster than any other known helicopter.

Spartan Class Transporter

Vehicle Type
The Spartan is designed for rapid troop deployment, dropping from a helicarrier and
delivering troops and equipment quickly to a hot zone. They typically carry the Tactical
Response Battletank Mk II, although they can also be used to transport other equipment
and even troops directly in the field. The Spartan has the ability to take off and land
vertically from unprepared sites, and can also operate as a carrier-to-carrier transport.
Additionally, the Spartan has many variable weapons hardpoints and a fixed internal
cannon, allowing it to be used in a gunship role in support of ground troops.

250
It serves as a multi-role aerospace shuttle with vertical take-off and landing (VTOL)
capabilities, able to lift loads of up to 20 tons. Although initially designed as a pure
transport, the Spartan’s abilities have since been expanded to include operation as a
close-support gunship. Since its inception, it has proven to be a stable and reliable
platform, extremely popular with pilots.

The Spartan works on a unique deployment system. The cargo doors under the belly of
the craft open, and unfold to form the landing feet. Then, the vehicle it carries is lowered
by a lift from the Spartan's cargo, just at its finishes its landing procedure and approach.
The Battletank can be deployed at the same second the Spartan makes its landing, and
once it is out, the craft can take off immediately. This 'drop-and-go' deployment makes
the aircraft perfect for covert operations.

In line with its primary role as a transport vehicle, the Spartan is constructed around its
payload bay. The bay includes a 5 metre wide, hydraulically-activated deck ramp, able to
carry a fully-loaded Pursuit Battletank or stores pallet and raise the cargo completely into
the payload space from ground level. Automatic latches within the bay extend to hold the
cargo securely in place once the deck is raised. An additional small gantry for crew
access is found at the rear of the payload space.

The Spartan has a crew of two, comprising a pilot and a weapons officer. The spacious
pressurized cockpit is accessed by way of a ladder at the front of the payload bay — this
ladder is telescopic to allow access even when the cargo ramp is lowered. Within the
cockpit, the flight crew sit in tandem, with the pilot ahead and to the right of the Weapons
Officer.

independent oxygen supply and purge system, insulated high temperature resistant
shielding for up to 100 degrees centigrade (normal fires do no damage though nuclear,
and plasma fires do full damage), radiation shielded up to several hundred rads, and
polarized and light sensitive/adjusting tinted viewport. It is waterproof; should it fall into
water, the crew has a limited amount of air, and its electronics will still be working, at
least long enough to find a way out or to wait for help.

Spotlights: High intensity spotlights, that can shine on objects up to 180 mtrs away.

The Crusader's chassis incorporates a 5 cm foam-packed floor cavity to protect occupants

against explosives such as mines or shaped charges. The hull is constructed of light alloys
and is latched and bonded (rather than welded) to the chassis in order to prevent fatigue
and failure from effects associated with an alloy-titanium interface. The inside of the hull
is lined with additional protection in the form of boron carbide ceramic tiles, each of
which is coated with a polymer resin to prevent cracks or shattering during normal travel;
this resin also provides limited protection against pulsed laser weapons. The tiles are also
backed with a thick layer of woven, fire-resistant polymer Venlar armor that limits
spalling in the event of hull penetration. The driver's forward windshield is constructed of
exceptionally tough quartz armored crystal. Hull paints are laser absorbent to protect
against lidar, while the tank incorporates an infrared camouflage feature in which cooling
elements are arranged in patches and stripes beneath the skin to break up the vehicle's IR
signature.

262
The vehicle's primary armament is in the form of a roof-mounted turret to the rear that
offers a 360-degree field and is entirely self-contained (including power supply).
Weapons are stabilized within the turret to allow for firing whilst the vehicle is on the
move. The turret can be elevated up to an additional 1 metre, providing additional
elevation or maintaining a level firing platform for the weapons. The turret can be
controlled manually, either by the crew inside it or from the gunner's position inside the
front of the tank, or it can be set to automatic. In the latter mode, millimetre-wave
targeting radars mounted in the turret are able to communicate with the tank's sensor
array, allowing the weapons to track and engage targets detected by the vehicle's primary
sensor suite; alternatively, the turret can use its own ground-mapping and search
functions to acquire targets independently.

Each component vehicle is operated by a crew of two (driver and copilot) and
incorporates seating for 6 passengers. Other than the primary access via a sliding door on
the starboard side, the vehicle has a small driver's hatch on the port side. The interior is
relatively spacious, allowing for ample weapons and supply stowage. The vehicles are
required to carry sufficient ammunition and supplies for up to three days of fighting;
while this is possible, in practice the interior of the vehicle becomes cramped. Typically,
no more than two days of supplies and ammunition are carried, except on long-range
operations where resupply is limited.

267
Outrider Class Scout

Vehicle Type
The Outrider is S.H.A.D.O.W.’s rapid response vehicle. Sleek and easily recognizable by
the guns mounted on the hood, this car is highly maneuverable and capable of great
acceleration and speed, which is ideal for both long distance and city chases. The
aerodynamic silhouette of the Outrider helps it not only on the road, but also in the air.
When trying to avoid obstacles or if flight is required, the driver can pull on a lever on
the middle console to deploy the flight mode, which allows it to fly using retractable
wings, a tail fin and a combination of jump jets on the wings and aircraft engines in the
back. Since this requires a lot of fuel, the car can only fly for one hour continuously.
Should things go wrong, the roof can be ejected to facilitate a quick escape.

Since it is often involved in pursuits and dangerous situations, the Outrider is built with
bulletproof body work and windows. The front bumper is also reinforced so that it can be
used to ram into objects if need be. There are two machine guns mounted on the hood.

They are located on various bases around the world.

Pursuit Class Cycle

Vehicle Type
With its front winglets and twin wheels at the back for extra stability at high speeds, the
Pursuit Bike is S.H.A.D.O.W.’s undisputed champion on land. While nearly as massive
as a car, the Bike is nonetheless easy to drive. For added maneuverability, the rear wheel
pivots independently of the body and the seat ensures that the driver is in the most
aerodynamic position. It has another unique feature: it is the only terrestrial vehicle in the
fleet that can launch directly from a Sky Shadow. After driving off the end of the runway,
it will freefall like a bullet, then deploy its wings in stages, enabling the bike to fly.

Once airborne, the winglets can be used to help direct the Stallion toward the desired
landing location. As the bike touches the ground, the canopy and wings automatically
retract when the wheels touch the ground. The momentum of the descent and the stability
of the vehicle aids the driver not to lose an instant while in pursuit. The twin rear wheels
put down a huge amount of traction and it blasts off down the road.

The TRB is capable of high speed with the help of twin ram air booster jets at the rear;
supplied with ten wheels (two front sets, three rear set), as well as with variable ride-
height suspension, it is equipped with a multi-wheel steering system, which makes this
cumbersome-looking vehicle surprisingly easy to maneuver, on any kind of normal roads
as well as giving it good off-road performance.

The TRB is a sealed armoured vehicle, which access to the cabin is gained from the
hatches on the vehicles sides. Retractable seats will face the opening to receive either the
driver and/or passenger and then get into position in front of the controls panel. The
vehicle can be driven from either side, the steering sliding into position to whoever
wishes to drive it. Other hatches are situated on top of the vehicle and underneath it.
The driver’s cabin has a number of control screens, which act as the driver's eyes.
Equipped with all manner of computerized equipment needed the TRB also comes with a
security device allowing the driver to lock the vehicle capacity by password and voice-
command, thus avoiding the tank to be stolen by an enemy if it should be left by itself.

Scout Probes:
The ship is also equipped with 12 small underwater sensor probes that are remotely
controlled by the ship's sensor chief. The probes serve as long distance eyes and ears and
can relay telemetry data back to the ship up to 700 kms away. They can also conduct
delicate repair operations or investigate various anomalies.

After the second war of the worlds S.H.A.D.O.W. realized that any naval vessels would
be slow and powerless against an opponent who would sit in orbit and bomb them at their
leisure. Thus the need to first find a suitable submersible design, and then a campaign to
incorporate MetaTech and M.S.I technology into it. The rationale behind their designs for
submersible carriers of unprecedented size was as follows: if ever the orbital and
aerospace forces were defeated, the earth would need both a line of defence on the
surface of the planet and a mechanism to keep open the lines of communication between
the world's continents. Since the threat of orbital bombardment was even more severe in
that case, the new vessels needed to be able to escape such a bombardment, while still
counterattacking the enemy and keeping the communication lines open. S.H.A.D.O.W.
realized that ground bases were only a little less vulnerable to orbital bombardment than
surface vessels, but that a submersible vessel would be hidden from view and safe from
attack. Further the original small hangar design was expanded on a much greater scale to

291
allow them to carry Archangels, which could be launched from undersea (max depth of
100 metres).

locking on to enemy targets. +1 to Thac0 using ranged weapons.

Damage Control Repair: When the robot is damaged it can take a turn to attempt to use
the automatic repair system to fix it, with each successful roll repairing D20 Hit Points
damage or 1 system. This is tied to the Robot’s DCR or Damage Control Repair. To do
this he decides how many DCR points he assigns to each repair, with the amount of
points used equaling the percentage chance that the repair will succeed. If the roll is equal
to or less than the number of DCR points allotted to that repair then the damage is erased.
If the roll is higher than the number of points allotted then it is unsuccessful and cannot
be repaired in the field. Other systems also can be repaired using the robot's DCR, as
many as it wants, so long as still has DCR points to allocate. The entire DCR can be
applied to each repair. One roll is allowed every 30 minutes.
