Lancer

A tabletop roleplaying game of modular mechs and the pilots who crew them, set ten thousand years after the climate crash that ended the Anthropocene. Humanity has rebuilt and spread across the stars under Union, a central hegemon whose post-scarcity promise remains unevenly shared. Players portray a squad of pilots on campaign, choosing licenses from major manufacturers and taking on roles ranging from mercenaries and military regulars to corporate agents and far-field explorers. Missions combine tactical mech combat with a broader science-fiction narrative shaped by the squad’s alliances, contracts, and personal goals.
