The Winter of Atom campaign for the Fallout RPG is out in stores and on the internet right now. Jump into the wintry Wasteland!

Winter is here. Though it’s the middle of summer in the US, the Wasteland of the Fallout RPG, which is firmly set in Fallout 4‘s Commonwealth, is experiencing a nuclear winter. This marks the first campaign for the Fallout RPG. And what a doozy it will be.

This campaign adds three new factions. Each one is perfectly Fallout. You get Wasteland circus freaks, beatniks, and of course, Children of Atom, who love nuclear bombs. But then on top of that, this book includes rules for playing as one of the Wasteland’s iconic retro-sci-fi robots, a Protectron.

What more do you need out of a campaign?

Fallout RPG: Winter of Atom – New Factions, New Campaign, Same Ol’ Wasteland

 


 

In the ruins of old Boston, the Commonwealth settles in for a long, deadly winter. As its hungry communities do their best to find food and survive the cold, a new sect of the Church of the Children of Atom arrives. Their flock grows as they spread their worship of nuclear division and radiation across the region. Led by an enigmatic prophet calling himself the Last Son of Atom, the Church’s army plans to ignite an all-out winter war with the settlements that dare reject their atomic god. A group of ragtag survivors must do whatever it takes to protect their communities and keep the Commonwealth from becoming ground zero… again.

Winter of Atom’s themes include exploring frozen wastelands, harsh winter survival, building relationships with communities, explosive action against terrifying monsters, high-stakes warfare against a relentless foe, and weird and unexplainable supernatural horrors.
