Evil Genius Games has announced the upcoming release of three remarkable projects, The Military Handbook,  Weapons Locker, and The Garage set for launch in 2024.

The Military Handbook is a gritty, realistic military game designed by a team of military veterans and active-duty service members. Focusing on the detailed facets of military duty, both in the garrison and the field, the team aims to create a game that genuinely tests its heroes. The book will cover some of the world’s top Tier 1 special operations units. It will also add new rules around wound locations, fatigue, morale, battlefield hygiene, trauma & PTSD, and how to run games with heroes of mixed levels to represent different levels of combat experience. 

Simultaneously, Evil Genius Games will release Weapons Locker. This unique project delves into the intricate differences between over a thousand weapons, from primitive weapons to those used in WWI and WWII, all the way up to contemporary and near-future weapons and their use. By discussing the context around the existence of different weapons, we give players information they can use to bring focus and add depth to their heroes through weapons modification and ammunition choice.

Heroes need to get from place to place, and The Garage (The Garage is a placeholder title for the book) will help with that. This book will provide transportation options from horses to spacecraft. Additionally, we will introduce new chase challenges, and expanded rules for sites from safe houses to workshops. We plan to release it in November 2024.

The driving force behind these exciting projects is Rich Redman, a military veteran and renowned figure in the gaming industry. Rich was one of the original creators of d20 Modern, the inspiration behind Everyday Heroes. Known for his eccentricity, Redman reportedly spearheads operations from a secluded mountain fortress in Tibet, an idiosyncratic detail that only adds to his distinct persona.
