Welcome to Salvage & Sorcery: Scraphounds of Cygnus! In it, you play as a Scraphound working for the Reclamation Corps aboard the giant pile of junk known as Thanatos Station. Your home is Oblivion’s Edge, a dying star system choked by warp storms and populated by fractured spacefaring factions. Humanity, once a dominant force, clings to survival on decaying space hulks and shattered moons. Fortunately for the millions of souls living aboard Thanatos, the station orbits Cygnus, a ravaged planet where techno-barbarians and mutated creatures lurk, all vying for scraps in a broken world. Those living on the station can do little else but organize raids down to the surface in an attempt to find ancient tech and resources to survive.

As a scraphound, your job is to go out on missions and complete them as efficiently as possible, be it rescuing a captured civilian, sabotaging an enemy operation, or simply ransacking some old facility. In the process, you’ll find tons of loot, enemies to kill, and challenges to overcome!

Salvage & Sorcery: Scraphounds of Cygnus features:

• An original setting, mixing elements of grimdark science fiction, aetherpunk, and science fantasy from the 70s and 80s.

• A simple D6 dice pool ruleset, easy to grasp and fun to play!

• Squad-focused gameplay: whether you’re a solo player or a group of friends, you can play with one of the four available Careers (Tech-Knight, Warp-Weaver, Gunslinger, Scrapper) and forget about having to micro-manage NPCs! 

• As you progress through the game, your character will gain new abilities, allowing you to personalize their powerset through a selection of talents. Will your Tech-Knight focus on reinforcing their control over their ancient Exoshell, or will they choose the path of the Eldritch Archblade?

• Fast, simple gameplay focused around randomly-generated missions, fighting your way through randomly-generated facilities that range from ruined cities, to decaying terra-forming stations, derelict spaceships, and more!

• Loot, loot, loot! With over 100 unique pieces of loot to find, you will always be excited to see what the next big baddie drops!

• RPG guidance: although the core experience and gameplay loop aren’t a true RPG, there are rules to run your own RPG campaign in the Oblivion’s Edge setting, with many different tables to help you plan your scraphound’s next adventure!
