"Your genetically engineered people are returning to the stars to usher in the dawn of a new age. Now is the time to reconnect with other forgotten species, explore war-torn worlds, combat ancient threats and forge new frontiers."
Fragged Empire is a post-post-apocalyptic sci-fi roleplaying game where your people are returning to space following a century of hiding in the aftermath of a galactic war. It's a universe that leans heavily into themes of cultural tension and exploration, with a dash of transhumanism, nation-building, and a hope for a better future. Inspirations for Fragged Empire include Cowboy Bebop, Firefly, Farscape, the Millennium Falcon scenes from Star Wars, and a little of The Expanse.
This is the 2nd edition of Fragged Empire and it has improved on the 1st edition in every way! The 2nd edition rules are slimmer and more intuitive than 1st edition while also increasing the depth of your options. The lore has expanded beyond the Haven system, pre-Great War history is explored along with the key features that make the Fragged universe so interesting: its various species and their cultures.
