Dreadnought is a rules-light RPG that pits nobledark heroes against cosmic horrors borne from the depthless unknown. The game has no stats and easy-to-use mechanics built to drive the narrative forward using an Apocalypse Engine with a dreadful twist. It's designed to be about the characters and their story.
Dread controls the game; players control the story.
Dreadnought — War of the Heretic King is built to play independent of our other work and complete the Exquisite Corpse series. Together, they complete the trilogy and weave together the mad narrative of Nolan Locke, Inquisitor Kada, and The Heretic King.
The Eidolons are dead. The Inquisition is shattered. War rages on the ice, and below, the Deep Things are watching.
