A downloadable NOVAverse TTRPG
**Get your printed copy today!**
NEST is a rules-lite TTRPG set in the NOVAverse, the setting of the NOVA TTRPG. Designed to be played across a campaign of 5 sessions, you and your friends will take on the role of deadly Corvus Dominion agents. A Hellion warlord is threatening the area, and you've been granted the authority to deal with them.
NEST is specifically designed for a "fewshot" campaign. Each session players will choose which mission they will take on next. Those choices will determine the sorts of rewards they get, best preparing them for their final mission against the warlord. Will you choose to rebuild your Flock and gather allies to you? Or will you slash holes into the defenses of your target so that they will fall with the pull of a trigger in the end? The choices are yours.
What You Get
The game is completely self-contained, and everything you need is inside. You'll find:
- 72 full-color pages, with amazing layout by Mike Rieman and art by Galen Pajeau
- Full rules on how to play NEST
- Four Birds to choose from when creating your agents
- 9 missions to choose from throughout your campaign
- Campaign structure to play out your story in 5 exciting sessions
How It Works
NEST uses the LUMEN 2.0 system. This means there are no dice used at all. Instead, players must manage a number of different resources as they describe how they move through each mission. As resources dwindle, the agents will be pressed into more creative problem solving, or desperate actions!
Want a rundown of how NEST works? This video describes the mission structures, gameplay loop, and core mechanics.
NEST is designed to be played out across 5 sessions, including session 0. During a session, you will choose from a number of possible missions. Each mission has different objectives, and different rewards for completing it. Some missions help you gather your Flock, assembling valuable NPCs at your mobile base who can support you in and out of missions. Other missions bring harm to your target, weakening their defenses, or providing you with valuable intel on the final mission.
It's up to you to decide how your table will approach this task, and which missions to choose. It always ends with your final attack on the Hellion warlord. Good luck.
