A Society of Unlikely Gentlemen : Victorian sci-fi rpg !

This is the year 1895. Five years ago, the city of Atlantis rose again from the depths of the ocean. At the same time, several portals appeared on Earth and allowed safe passage to Venus and Mars.

Scientific marvels pop-up everywhere, four-armed martian ambassadors walk the streets of London while Venusian amazons guide big game hunters through the jungles of their planet. Empires still scheme and fight among themselves, looking for new technologies to gain the advantage over their rivals.

You play adventurers and explorers, always looking for new scientific discoveries, uncharted territories or lost treasure, to quench their thirst of knowledge, fortune and fame.

One of my players described it as "The adventures of Captain Future in the 19th century"

No magic, no fantasy, this is scientific romance !

If there is enough interest I will develop the game a bit more (illustrations, professionnal layout and added content). So if you like the game, let me know!

Salut !
+1 pour la version française !!!
Et pour la motivation... ben... J'ai des joueurs intéressés, je suis plus que convaincu, mais l'anglais est une vrai difficultée pour moi... (j'y travaille, promis, mai en attendant...)
Merci d'avance,

Christian

I love it. I would gladly pay for a more expanded ruleset, but it's great as is.

For those who are considering it, give it a shot. It's easy to get into, and the system works wonders.

Just want to finally thank you for this. I've been running a campaign for almost 2 years, and, especially due to the quarantine, it has been a major source of enjoyment, diversion and fun !
