Big Robot Energy

Update 10/19/23: NOTE: KYBERTRION: Legacy is now Turbo Shifters! While still built on the powerfully light Kāos Engine, the rebranding comes with expanded rulesets for Running on Fumes (after burning through too much Turbo) and how to build, manage, and utilize a homebase headquarters (HQ)!

The idea bug hit me about a month or so ago and didn’t let go. I ended up buying some dice and writing a game…

My first roll out of gate. BTW, this big guy is HUGE (about the size of a ping pong ball), weighs a TON, and rolls like a BOSS..

Have I been watching Transformers War for Cybertron Trilogy? Yes. Yes, I have.

The core mechanic is a polyhedral dice pool using my KĀOS ENGINE game rules, developed to make character generation quick and intuitive, conflict resolution fast and furious, and results dynamic and interesting, so you can start playing and having fun as soon as possible.

Besides the massive d20, I also got my first set of metal dice. Why didn’t anyone warn me they would be so cool (or that I would need to get a special dice vault before they hurt themselves and others?)

The game, KYBERTRION: Legacy, is currently a 20 page zine, which includes the above cover, some art, 14 pages of rules, and the following character sheet.

This hotwired edition of KYBERTRION: Legacy hits the digital marketplace on DriveThruRPG and itch.io soon, and an expanded version is in the works…stay tuned!
