The year is 1984.
You are "Jackie" - a woman on a quest.
They came in the night. They took your girl. You don't know why.
They took her to Rapture.
To the city beyond the sea.
The city that changed the world.
You're gonna get her back.

Can you call something a playtest if the TTRPG in question has left beta and is heading towards its final printing? No, I don't think this. We're using HEAT, an RPG of my own devising, which you can nab the alpha version for free on this here...
A young aristocrat sets out to court a Noble, only to end up trapped in a sprawling estate that's teeming with romantic rivals. The only guaranteed way to leave is to win the Noble's heart. And with the price of failure on everyone's minds, it won't be long before people start playing dirty.
Strap in for a bachelorette battle royale with a healthy heaping of body horror.

An attempt at grounded sci-fi that still is cool and rollicking. Influences include The Expanse, Cowboy Bebop, a more calmed-down version of Philip K. Dick, the capitalist mania of EVE Online, the work of climate scientists everywhere and, you guessed it, Sid Meier's Pirates.
The year is 1922. The Great War has ended six years ago in a Treaty of Coexistence. Europe's old empires remain standing to meet the challenges of a world forever changed by a horrific conflict.
A new Kaiser sits the throne of Austria-Hungary. He faces many challenges in reviving and preserving the old imperial state. He needs someone competent, someone loyal, someone with the experience to hold the Habsburg legacy together.
Fortunately for him, he's found just the right man for the job...
Luck is a strange thing. Sometimes it keeps you out of the hands of the Black Ships as a young psyker. Sometimes it lands a Tyranid splinter-fleet on your doorstep. Maybe the Emperor has a plan for you; one that doesn't involve ending up in some monster's gullet. The galaxy is rarely a kind place - but perhaps your luck will hold.
