There is an entirely new adventure coming your way, and this one's also free.
Inside this 28-page book, you will find everything you need to start playing CONTACT right off the bat. There's abbreviated game rules, five sample characters, and a ready-to-run introductory mission that will insert you directly into the exciting world of this science-fiction tabletop role-playing game. But be warned: You won't find a princess to save at the end of this dungeon. Instead, get ready for a true triple-A experience: amnesia, abductions and aliens galore. Will you make it out alive? Let's find out with the CONTACT Quick Start Rules, featuring "Going in Circles" by the author of the Tactical Alien Defense Role-Playing Game.

Designed by alien geniuses to make your life during character creation so much easier, this advanced spreadsheet allows you to breeze through the process of building a character for CONTACT in roughly 15 minutes. Don't get scared by a little math. Use the CCC! All you need to fire it up it is MS Word, Open Office Calc or any other app capable of processing the .xls format. Originally started by the author of the game, this helpful spreadsheet was expanded on by Tim Okrongli and finally translated for the international PDF release of the core book of contact. |
CONTACT just became available in English!

Are you the type to ask too many questions? Are you infamous for being over-prepared for any situation you encounter? Do people marvel at your outside-the-box thinking and inventiveness? Could you be a scientific genius, an athlete, a mastermind of espionage? Or, do you just excel at crushing your opponents?
The year is 2047 A.D., and a clandestine agency called OMEGA has just recruited you into their ranks of international operatives: soldiers, scientists, spooks, bureaucrats and diplomats, from around the world, all of whom who have already caught a faint glimpse of the impending doom.
Technology has evolved. War has evolved. Unfortunately, trapped in the human condition, Earth's dominant species hasn't. People from all walks of life are still puzzled in the face of a threat that's overshadowed human history for millennia, eluding their grasp, and always lurking beneath layers of lies and deceit.
In this politically-charged future, you will pit your wits and resources against multiple hostile extraterrestrial factions while trying to put an end to the domestic dangers of human lunacy and corporate greed. Enter a vibrant world of UFO madness, mystery, and cutting-edge technology... if you have what it takes to be the last line of defense for your entire planet.
It is time to change the game.
Command. Research. Fight Back.
CONTACT - Tactical Alien Defense Role Playing Game
Available at DriveThruRPG!
Finally available in English, CONTACT is a full-blown, standalone science fiction tabletop role-playing game, authored by Robert Hamberger. It comes with its own custom point-based action combat mechanics, and uses percentile dice for most in-game resolutions. More in-depth game mechanics, such as advanced combat tactics and vehicular fighting, are handled in a modular fashion so that the game can be kept to a minimum amount of complexity for casual gamers. Advanced players will enjoy the added blend of comprehensive strategy and simulation elements such as research and development.
The English language core rulebook is a high-resolution, full color PDF, containing 290 pages of illustration, a hyper-linked index, and other interactive functions which will take you anywhere you need in the blink of an eye. CONTACT has been beautifully illustrated by the prolific U.S. / New Zealand artist Anthony “ACS” Scroggins. This digital product contains everything you will need, including such extras as background information on the game world, an introductory campaign, sample hero characters, assorted sinister alien archetypes, and loads of kick-ass military hardware.
Enjoy!

Opus Armatum - Research & Destroy
Published on Monday, 16 November 2015 10:28 | Written by Victor Krieg |
Wenn alles gesagt ist ...
... so lasst die Waffen sprechen.
Was brauchen wir - Bleispritzen? Plasmawummen? Railguns? Automatikkanonen? Lasergeschütze? Scharfschützenschießprügel? Partikelpumpen? Granaten? Nukes? Messer? Angespitzte Stöcke? Oder gleich die ganze verdammte mechanisierte Kavallerie?
Hier ist ein Hinweis für jene, die unter einem Stein geschlafen haben und gerade erst aufgewacht sind: Wir werden ALLES brauchen!
Denn auf der Erde herrscht jetzt KRIEG - und dazu noch sogar der erste sinnvolle Krieg der gesamten Menschheitsgeschichte.
Willkommen in der Zukunft, Soldat. Hier geht es zur Waffenkammer.
Opus Armatum - R & D ist das definitive Ausrüstungshandbuch für das Taktische UFO-Rollenspiel. In diesem Kompendium finden Spieler und Spielleiter Erweiterungsregeln für Kämpfe mit Exoskeletten, die Fernsteuerung von Drohnen, Hacking, Fahrzeugumbauten, Waffenmodifikationen, Kampfkünste, das rapide Resolutions-System (RRS) für NSC-Missionen, ein um die Technologiestufe 4 und zahlreiche neue Forschungs- und Entwicklungsprojekte erweitertes BMS, umfassende Ausrüstungslisten und vieles, vieles mehr!
CONTACT - The Score: Und er ist da!

Mit "The Score" entstand im Tonstudio der Jungs von X-Score ein Konzept-Album für CONTACT, das eine bewusst bunte Genre-Mischung an Tracks bietet. Es liefert dem geneigten Spieler und Spielleiter etwa zu gleichen Teilen atmosphärische und epische Tracks, welche den Hörer stimmungsvoll in die Spielwelt einzuführen vermögen. Zusammen können die siebzehn Tracks dieses Albums eine spannende Geschichte ergeben, die vom Kampf der Helden der Menschheit gegen eine nicht zu bezwingende Bedrohung aus dem All erzählt.
X-Score und das CONTACT-Soundtrackalbum

Die Zeit ist reif - CONTACT, das Taktische UFO-Rollenspiel, bekommt sein eigenes Musikalbum.
Die Jungs von X-Score (Jan Haak, Konstantine Kazantzis) und Uhrwerk-Stammkomponist Ralf Kurtsiefer haben die Köpfe zusammengesteckt und werden ein filmreifes Soundtrack-Album zaubern, das ihr als Hintergrund beim Rollenspielabend laufen lassen oder auch einfach nur so hören könnt.
Ende des Jahres könntet ihr es bereits in euren Händen halten - wir arbeiten mit Hochdruck daran! Und damit ihr abschätzen könnt, was da auf euch zukommt, gibt es hier schon einen ersten Vorgeschmack auf den Sound:
