The final adventure in the Fall of the House of Kashta series—which is a fictional chronicle of the Assyrian invasion that capped off Ancient Egypt’s 25th Dynasty, as told from the POV of action heroes—is now available on itch.io.
Far from Kush, in the city of Abydos, enemies surround and hunt the Princess and the heroes of the Kushite Dynasty. They must cross Upper Egypt, a land the dynasty once ruled but is now the domain for the Assyrians and their local proxy, the Saite Dynast—the new pharaoh by right of conquest. Using wits, iron, and the love the people still harbour, the heroes seek to return to their home in Kush, to join their king and their kin, and to foil the plans of their enemies. A mere handful versus thousands. No problem.
The March Up Country is one translation for Anabasis, Xenophon’s story of 10,000 Greek mercenaries trapped deep in Persia. This adventure echoes that theme. It is the latest in a collection of adventures for Neferiti Overdrive 2.0 set during the fall of the 25th Dynasty of Pharaonic Egypt which started in Proof of Death and continued in Judged, Get Netiqret, and the Icon of Amun-ra. While designed for Nefertiti Overdrive 2.0, this adventure can be used with the first edition.
Two more adventures are in the pipeline. The first will be Daughter of the Sun, an update of the post-King Tut adventure that focused on the fate of his wide/half-sister. After that will come In A Sea Of Dunes, which pits a group of veterans against the authorities as one of their own because the target of a greedy governor.
As with all SEP games, this system requires cooperation at the table and a shared goal of telling a great story. It is the premise of SEP systems that the game experience should be fun for everyone and no player should be made uncomfortable unless that is a part of the experience of which they were informed and to which they agree. Shared respect and consideration among all participants are key to achieving a satisfying and enjoyable game for everyone at the table. If you disagree, this system and SEP games more widely are not going to meet your expectations or complement your play style.
