Zafir: Tactical Roleplaying Game - Rulebook

Zafir: Tactical Roleplaying Game is a fast-paced, tactical, cover-shooter, tabletop RPG that brings something new to the genre.

◊

The beautifully-illustrated, 440-page rulebook PDF contains everything you need to play in three easy-to-use sections: the Player’s Guide, the Zafir Campaign Setting, and the GM’s Guide.

The setting is inspired by ancient middle-eastern themes and Zoroastrian mythology, with a unique magitech twist, bringing the world into a magical analogue of the industrial revolution. Guns, magic, airships, and energy crystals all coexist in the world of Zafir. Set just two decades after a massive world war, the nations of Zafir are at an uneasy peace. Banditry and sky-piracy are rampant, and the need for muscle and guns is at an all time high. Will your crew help fight back the tide of outlaws, or become outlaws themselves?

Choose one of three main class trees: Soldier, Mage, or Spiritist, and become one of 32 different classes as you gain experience. Equip dozens of different weapons customized with dozens of unique mods. Fight against over 70 different enemy unit types. Play through an included campaign of five missions, with detailed battlefield maps for each encounter.

With an easy-to-learn, d6-based resolution mechanic and compelling setting, Zafir: Tactical Roleplaying Game is a great choice for any gaming group. It works best with groups of 3-5 players and one Game Master and can easily be played as a one-shot or as an ongoing campaign.

“Zafir’s overall design and lore are exceptional. Its true strength, however, is in the way it seamlessly meshes its lore, tactics-based combat, and narrative-based adventuring into a single document. It floods the mind with story and character inspiration.”

— Brad, playtester
