Critical-Hits Studios, in partnership with Greater Than Games, is proud to present Sentinel Comics: the Roleplaying Game, a comic book experience roleplaying game from the page of Sentinel Comics. The card game Sentinels of the Multiverse was the first glimpse into the worlds of Sentinel Comics, featuring tales of heroes triumphing over powerful supervillains.
Sentinel Comics: The Roleplaying Game uses its own game system to best represent the heroes of the Sentinel Comics universe. It uses a three dice pool system that is formed from a character’s powers, qualities, and status, sometimes referred to as the “GYRO system.”
Sentinel Comics Roleplaying Game Core Rulebook
The SCRPG Core Rulebook contains all the rules needed to run an SCRPG game, including hero creation rules, expanded discussion of core rules, GM toolkits to create villains, environments, and other threats, pre-generated heroes from the Sentinels of Freedom (the new incarnation of the Freedom Five) and Daybreak (a new band of teen heroes), sample issues, plenty of villains from the pages of Sentinel Comics, and much more.
