Imperial Jupiter: A planet sourcebook for Rocket Age RPG

Created by Why Not Games

Jupiter, largest planet in the Solar System, has finally been detailed for the Rocket Age RPG. As a setting book, Imperial Jupiter offers the detail, iconic NPCs, and story hooks you would expect from a Rocket Age product.

Latest Updates from Our Project:

Callisto Preview
over 5 years ago – Sat, Aug 18, 2018 at 08:07:33 PM

Once we reach $3250 the Callisto chapter will be added to Imperial Jupiter

This will include:

-The origins of the Callisto Yeti: Erisian refuges who fled the destruction of the fifth planet, how they have been changed by their frigid environment as their Venusian cousins were by the jungles of Venus, and the Callisto Yeti as a species package!

- Erisian ruins on Callisto: these once mighty fortresses were lost to the decay of time, advancing glaciers, and the plotting of the Europans!

- Three new alien creatures native to Callisto added to the Ecology chapter: ice walker, vampire sealion, and the terror that is known only as Dark Claw!

- Lost technology of the Erisians added to the Equipment chapter: Erisian surface defense weapons, rocket ships, and more!

Don't fear the cold, just take a deep breath and let it in!

Ken Added Stretch Goals - Moons of Jupiter

Thank you for backing Imperial Jupiter!

Imperial Jupiter Stretch Goals Announced!

Imperial Jupiter covers three of the Jovian moons, Europa, Ganymede, and Io. As we pass these stretch goals we will add a chapter covering another moon, as well as sections in the Ecology and New Equipment chapters.

$3250- Callisto

Home to the fearsome Yeti, Callisto is a frozen world of glaciers, icy seas, and vast fields of snow. Brave the cold and deadly native fauna to learn more about the origins of the Yeti and explore ruins of Lost Eris!

$3750- Metis

The Metisians are an Europan client species and form the backbone of the Europan military. For centuries their forest-covered moon was infected by a virulent plague that drove the Metisans underground. Now with the Europans having cured the plague the Metisians are able to explore their own home, but who knows what they will find?

$4250- Amalthea

Never before covered in Rocket Age, Amalthea is a small moon that supports a bizarre and toxic atmosphere. What wonders lie there and why do they hint at strange signals from beyond the orbit of Saturn?

Here's the link if you would like to have the moons of Jupiter content added!
