Home of the Brave
The Sourcebook for America, the Home of the brave, in the Dark Future of Cyberpunk.
A State of Dis-union…
“America’s undergone flood, fire, and famine in the last thirty years. Along with Martial Law and one of the longest guerilla wars we’ve ever fought. There’s gangs on the streets, pollution in the air, and the Corps looking down from above. But when the Outside gets too nasty, we still pull together and get the job done.”
“Why? ‘Cause it’s our country—and that’s just the way it is.”
Home of the Brave is the penultimate sourcebook for the Cyberpunk 2020 system. A detailed examination of the Politics, Society, Economics, and Military of America in the 21st Century.
Within these pages, you’ll find:
- The Fall of America—How things got cyberpunk. The Collapse, the Chaos that followed, and the Martial Law that ended it.
- New America—Work, Education, Religion, Family, Entertainment. How does the average (!) Punk live?
- The Government—We’ve got a President… but what does she do?? Who runs things; a look at the uneasy triumvirate: National Government, the Corps, and the Free States.
- The Armed Forces—From international oppressor, to national savior, to just another job… Their organization, equipment, and bases. Plus, how your character can be “all that he can be.”
- State of the Union—What’s still good (and what’s truly bad) about this land of ours. The states are grouped into eight Regions, with the hot spots and possible adventure hooks noted.
So jack into that cyberbike and get ready to explore America in the Dark Future. Because in 2020, Freedom really is just another word for Nothing Left to Lose…
Cyberpunk 2020
The Corporations control the world from their skyscraper fortresses, enforcing their rule with armies of cyborg assassins. On the Street, Boostergangs roam a shattered urban wilderness, killing and looting. The rest of the world is a perpetual party, as fashion-model beautiful techies rub biosculpt jobs with battle armored roadwarriors in the hottest clubs, sleaziest bars and meanest streets this side of the Postholocaust. The Future never looked so bad.
But you can change it. You’ve got interface plugs in your wrists, weapons in your arms, lasers in your eyes, bio-chip programs screaming in your brain. You’re wired in, cyberenhanced and solid state as you can take it to the fatal Edge where only the toughest and coolest can go. Because you’re CYBERPUNK.
Cyberpunk: the original roleplaying game of the dark future; a world of corporate assassins, heavy-metal heroes and brain burning cyberhackers, packed with cutting edge technology and intense urban action. A game system that combines the best in realistic action and playability.
