Hostile Setting

Auf die Wunschliste >

HOSTILE is a gritty, near future roleplaying setting for the 2D6 Cepheus Engine rules that is inspired by movies like Outland and Alien. It is a universe of mining installations, harsh moons, industrial facilities, hostile planets and brutal, utilitarian spacecraft. And out here the Unknown is real – it is horrific: there are rumors of the disturbing side-effects of hyperspace, of ancient horrors entombed on icy moons, and of monsters – killer aliens, perfectly evolved to survive the hostile wastes of space – at any cost. 

This edition features a beautiful revised layout with full colour interior. A printer-friendly white background option is also included.

  • An immersive and realistic near space setting
  • Gritty and scientifically plausible Off-World Colonies
  • Many references to classic late-70s and early-80s SF movies
  • Complete career write-ups, from Roughneck to Corporate Agent, Marine to Spacer
  • Mega-ton starship construction rules
  • Campaign and referee guidelines
  • More than 30 fully-realized scenario hooks
  • The USCS Hercules – a complete commercial towing vessel
  • Setting-specific equipment and weapon lists
  • With a variety of realistic photo-illustrations and replica documents
  • A2 Format Colour Starmap PNG file included
  • Full colour throughout!

One of the greatest setting books I've ever purchased! This thing is full of flavor and gameable material.
This slides in easily into your Cepheus/Traveller/Hostile based games but could easily be used elsewhere.
I used ideas from this setting in a Cyberpunk 2020 game I ran to great success.
If you are looking for a printed option, I found it on Lulu. I recommend this for all the scifi gamers out there, your going to find something unique in this setting that you'll love.

Is gravity manipulation tech common in hostile, or is it more low tech like "The Expanse"?

Hi Chris, yes it uses grav plates more akin to Alien and other such movies. We do have a solar system based game using rotating habitats and reaction rockets, called Orbital 2100, although you’d need a copy of Cepheus Engine or Mongosse Traveller 1st edition (black cover) to play …

Thanks for the recommendation, I've purchased Orbital and am reading it now. I like what I see so far. Nice work!

Hi, the skill list on pg 135 has no left margin. I hope this helps. Great books by the way!

I am loving the HOSTILE books. Started with Solo and just bought the Mega Bundle.

One complaint, however... the print-friendly versions of Rules and Setting are not at all print-friendly.

Yes, I’m sorry, it is a bit of a misnomer - it simply has the full colour text background removed to try and reduce the ink use when printing out.

Will the PDFs be updated with the errata? I noticed Paul E posting errata corrections here but I would hope the pdfs get updated.
I'm pretty close to purchasing this and would like to know :)

I have found that from v3 I have in print to v4 there are changes on Pag 131 and 183. Posted here.
What are the new changes on v5? Is there a changelog? Thank you.

Hi Luis, there is no change log. V5 adds in a missing table for the speed of manoeuvre drives to page 245. Each level of manoeuvre drive equals 10 Million km of travel.

Do Hostile players select traits from Cepheus?

Hi Jeff, I’ve not used Hostile with Cepheus Light or Cepheus Deluxe, but I think it would be very appropriate to use the Traits within those books.

Hello guys, in page 131, in the Survey Scout mishaps table, result 6 looks like the text is incomplete:
6 You are sent to a location by an corporate exec, but he knows it is dangerous, and your crew are

what is the complete line for that?

Hi
The complete line should be.
'You are sent to a location by an corporate exec, but he knows it is dangerous, and your crew are badly injured. He threatens to blame everything on you. '

On page 7 of the "Full Size Preview" pdf it mentions a "Hostile Rules Handbook". Is that an upcoming product? or am I just missing where it is here on DriveThruRPG? I ask as I've looked and can't find it.

The HOSTILE Rules book is a 300 page standalone ruleset for the Hostile setting, it is written, but not yet laid out ready for publication. It will be a companion book to the Setting book, and can take the place of Cepheus Engine if you wish. It includes a huge amount of Hostile-specific material. We hope to have it ready by the end of the year.

Will you be revamping your entire "Hostile" line with the new Revised layout? I'd hate to buy the old version on Lulu and then have them come out with new "updated" versions at a later date.

Eingescanntes Buchformat
Diese eBooks wurden durch einen tatsächlichen Scan eines gedruckten Exemplars dieses Buches erstellt; das Ergebnis wurde dann in ein PDF umgewandelt. Jede Seite wurde durch eine Optical Character Recognition (OCR) Software analysiert, um den gedruckten Text zu erkennen. Das Ergebnis des OCR-Vorgangs wurde dann unsichtbar auf den Seiten platziert, damit du den Text durchsuchen kannst. Trotzdem kann es vorkommen, dass Text vor manchen Hintergründen sowie an Handschriften angelehnte Schriftarten nicht von der OCR-Software erkannt wurde - diese Texte können leider nicht durchsucht werden. Ähnliches gilt für einige besonders dicke Bücher, die umgewandelt werden mussten und daher keinen durchsuchbaren Text enthalten. Einige besonders alte und vergriffene Bücher können sogar nur in Form eingescannter Bilder angeboten werden.

Diese eBooks wurden direkt aus einer elektronischen Original-Datei erstellt und sind daher komplett durchsuchbar. Auch ihre Datei-Größe ist meist deutlich kleiner als die von Büchern, die eingescannt werden mussten. Die allermeisten neueren Bücher liegen in originär elektronischer Form vor.
