PLANET OF THE APES RPG CORE RULEBOOK HC
Description
Enter The Planet of the Apes RPG Core Rulebook HC, the official tabletop guide that flips evolution on its head. Built on the Magnetic Variant (D6MV) of the classic D6 system, it delivers accessible rules and deep, lore-rich play. Step into a world where apes are the ruling class and humans are subjugated. Choose from 24 character classes—from chimpanzee scientists to orangutan statesmen and gorilla soldiers—and craft campaigns across Ape City and the forbidding Forbidden Zone. Play as a time-lost astronaut or a mute tribal human, or a mutant survivor who manipulates minds. Detailed histories, new gear, and a host of rules options—Stun, Encumbrance, SRP Defenses, Extraordinary Abilities, and character Quirks—support cinematic play and challenging strategy. Created by Andrew E.C. Gaska and E.L. Thomas, with interior art by Chris Scalf, Runa I. Rosenberger, Chandra Free, and Shane Molina, and cover by Bill Sienkiewicz. 308 pages of content, ready for adventure.
