Outland 17 – Revolutionary Tactical RPG

 

Outland 17: Void of Liberty is a sci-fi tactical RPG based around the events of the American Revolutionary War. Earth’s population has swelled, leading to a strain on her resources and a wider gap between the wealthy and the impoverished. Stations are being built outside of the Earth’s orbit to explore more possible resources and to alleviate the burdening population.

Those in poverty are offered places on these Outlands in the hopes of working off their debt to the corporate companies on Earth. However, awful working conditions, unfair laws, and martial brutality have pushed the colonists to the breaking point.

G. Martin Wallace, citizen of the People’s Republic of Earth, hears rumors of civil unrest in the colonies. Despite the official reports of peace, Martin Wallace is compelled to validate these rumors for himself. You start with Martin Wallace landing on Outland 3 seeking out the truth and, eventually, organizing a more effective force that can match the military force present on Outland 3.
