. . .for some Truth & Justice!

Atomic Sock Monkey Press is proud to announce the official launch of Truth & Justice, the new superhero RPG of heroism and mad, beautiful ideas.

Building on the Prose Descriptive Qualities (PDQ) system used in other ASMP games like Dead Inside and Monkey, Ninja, Pirate, Robot: the RPG, Truth & Justice (T& J) has been streamlined and chromed-up for superheroic flexibility, simplicity, and speed.

T& J focuses on how capable the character is in the context of a superhero story-game, emphasizes quick and flexible character generation, and offers different levels of task resolution to let you detail the encounters that really matter.

Three sample settings are provided for superhero campaigns: become the champions of Drakesville when its signature hero gets promoted to the majors in "Second-String Supers"; navigate the twisty path between altruism and selfishness in the futuristic world of "SuperCorps"; and change the world for the better in "Fanfare for the Amplified Man."

T& J is available as a 133 page book in both the PDF ($13) and PoD ($25) formats.

For more information, see:

For a preview of the game and other downloads (including a 36 page free supplement -- Dial S for
Superhumans, a collection of over two dozen fan-created T& J characters), see:

I'm totally picking this one up. Looks like a pantsload of fun. Pris (my D&D GM) has been making noises about having some of the rest of us run campaigns when we finish up the one we're on (or when it's time to level up again and we are ready for a break from playing the same characters we debuted this past winter). I haven't run a game since the great T.F.O.S. debacle of '87, and it's time.

Oh, now, that sounds like a story worth hearing.

Seconded.

I don't really recall the details of my own (same year, even!), but it could be summed up by the words "novice GM."

Just bought it. It's printing off backwards. The bibliography is good. I like the picture of the foot. Widget & Zoom is funny. Let's hope pages 101-1 are as good.

Bravo, sir. Very well done.

Please tell me you're printing backwards deliberately.

It's like printer foreplay.

I'm printing in reverse order so the book will just magically appear at the end of the run, in order, and readable over the nice risotto I made for lunch. Pea, parma ham and superheroes.

Up to p53 now. Nearly there.

Okay. I was afraid I somehow mystically made it print out that way.

Post to RPGnet with what you think? (Keep that thread alive!)
