Battleground

Main > Rules > World Statistics > World Tags > Battleground

The world is a battleground for two or more outside powers. They may be interstellar rivals, or groups operating out of orbitals or other system bodies. Something about the planet is valuable enough for them to fight over, but the natives are too weak to be anything but animate obstacles to the fight.

Enemies:
^{Who might be encountered who opposes the group}

• Ruthless military commander
• Looter pack chieftain
• Traitorous collaborator

Friends:
^{Who might offer the group services or missions}

Hapless war orphan

Complications:
^{How might the situation on the world be more complicated}

Things:
^{What items might be found on the world}

Abandoned prototype military gear

Precious spy intelligence lost by someone

Places:

Artillery-pocked wasteland

Reeking refugee camp

Burnt-out shell of a city
