sla industries (2e): special retail edition

SLA Industries (pronounced "Slay Industries") is an award-winning pen-and-paper role-playing game that was first published in Scotland in 1993. The game is a horror noir science-fiction setting set in a dystopian reality in which the majority of the known universe is either owned or indirectly controlled by the eponymous corporation SLA Industries. The game incorporates themes from the cyberpunk, gothic horror and conspiracy genres, and has always been praised on the quality of writing and art.

In the World of Progress, the corporation SLA Industries rules all. Employing Operatives to enforce, extend, and maintain their power base, SLA controls a multitude of worlds - industrial, franchise, and resource - with planet Mort at its core. As Operatives execute the company's will, new threats emerge through the cracks of the city walls, turning Downtown into a battleground.

The newly arrived Neophron signals a shift in the balance of the universe, as the scholarly species joins the ranks of SLA Industries, sending their brightest to train as Operatives to serve alongside Ebonites, Shaktars, Wraithen, and Humans. You, the SLA Operative, are fighting for fame and fortune against a backdrop of a crumbling reality. Operatives feed the always-on televisions with a gaudy media of wall-to-wall death and dismembering. Operative life is all about climbing the corporate ladder and earning sponsorship deals and notoriety along the way.

Dream Entities claw at the fabric of reality, dredging up nightmares, while elsewhere the Shi'An Blood Cult rises, corrupting the disenfranchised masses of Mort to its cause and unleashing the horrors from White Earth into an unsuspecting world. As SLA Industries battles to reclaim the Cannibal Sectors outside, Operatives are forced to deal with problems within the city walls more so than ever before - and below, the Deep Construct awakens.

SLA Industries 2E is a tabletop roleplaying game that uses Nightfall Games' S5S rules system. Recommended for two or more mature gamers. This is a limited edition version of the SLA Industries 2nd Edition RPG.
