Soldiers of Fortune (Ward Against Evil)
About
“If violence wasn’t your last resort, you failed to resort to enough of it.”
~ Howard Tayler
Soldiers of Fortune is a ruleset that allows players of OnePageRules (a fantastic wargame not made by me) to control a Company of Mercenaries and take on procedurally generated Contracts to fight the powers at be.
Soldiers of Fortune are compatible with both Age of Fantasy: Skirmish and Grimdark Future: Firefight, allowing you to play in either setting without issue.
The Core Rules include:- Rules for creating and maintaining a unique Mercenary Company, based in a faction from either OPR's Age of Fantasy or Grimdark Future, without being entirely tied to just that faction
- A 5-step process for procedurally generating Contracts (missions you can go on to get paid)
- A unique AI Decision-Making System that does not rely on decision trees and takes into account Player input without slowing down the game
- Rules for Enemy Garrisons, Reinforcements, Command Squads, Specialists, and Wizards/Psychics
- An improved Injury and Veterancy system that encourages the growth of elite mercenary bands
- A sheet for tracking your Company's Attributes, Staff, and Roster of Mercs
- A sheet for tracking your Income and Accounts after each successful contract
- A sheet for tracking what Contracts you have available to you at any given moment
- Specific rules for Strange Terrain in each setting
- Faction tables for each setting
- Company Staff tables for each setting (think of them like followers in your Company that provide passive bonuses)
- An entire sheet on each Faction, providing a unique Patron's Favor, Spells, Wizard/Psychic Actions table, Squads, and Specialists
- Random Contract generator link
Otherwise, it's all done! If you find any problems or have any questions, post about it below!
