Dive into Gotham&#8217;s dark alleys to investigate mysteries and face off against your enemies in heroic and spectacular events. In the end, only your choices matter.<\/p>\n<p>In this role-playing game, you and your friends will create your own characters or play existing ones. One of you will act as the game master, responsible for leading and narrating the game.<\/p>\n<p>This game uses the famous D20 system with its CoC evolution. There are three character creation modes to suit your style and preferences, ranging from a simple detective to a super-powered character.<\/p>\n<p>Each character has six attributes that represent both physical and intellectual qualities. The D20 system offers both beginners and experts a fast-paced and dynamic experience. To customize your character, there are 75 paths corresponding to specializations, each with up to five ranks.<\/p>\n<p>This beautiful book contains 243 pages. The first part includes the rules for character creation, descriptions of the different paths, experience rules, and equipment. The second part explains how to perform tests and the combat system. The third part describes optional rules, covering insanity, interrogations, and surveillance. The fourth part provides tips for players to embody their characters and guidance for the game master on designing and leading a scenario. Finally, the book concludes with a gallery of characters from the Batman universe.<\/p>\n<h4>The Game Master\u2019s Screen<\/h4>\n<p>What would a game master be without a screen? This essential tool for any respectable game master comes with a stunning four-panel illustration by renowned French artist Anthony Jean.<\/p>\n<p>This screen, in portrait format, immerses you in the heart of a riot at Arkham Asylum, where heroes confront their lifelong enemies.<\/p>\n<p>On the four interior panels for the game master, there is a summary of actions and their difficulty levels, combat rules, and weapon tables. All special actions are summarized, along with sections on damage, protection, and healing. A small index helps you quickly find key information in the core rulebook.<\/p>\n<h4>The Storage Case<\/h4>\n<p>Finally, a beautifully illustrated case by Anthony Jean completes the set, allowing you to neatly store your rulebook and game screen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Whether you&#8217;re a beginner or an experienced role-player, this pack provides everything you need to start playing smoothly.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>English physical version + PDF.<\/strong><\/em> Get now the Quickstart in the &#8220;PDF&#8221; tab.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/monolithedition.com\/en\/portfolio\/batman-gotham-city-chronicles-the-roleplaying-game\/\"><em>Learn more<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":199,"featured_media":30107,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[1212],"product_cat":[602],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-29461","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_brand-batman","product_cat-batman-rpg","pa_prod-type-accessory","pa_prod-type-core-en","pa_prod-type-rpg","first","instock","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-variable"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.7 (Yoast SEO v27.7) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Batman\u2122: Gotham City Chronicles - The Roleplaying Game - Slipcase Core Book (ENG) - Monolith Board Games<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/monolithedition.com\/en\/product\/batmanrpg-slipcase-core-book-eng\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Batman\u2122: Gotham City Chronicles - The Roleplaying Game - Slipcase Core Book (ENG)\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Whether you&#039;re a beginner or an experienced role-player, this pack provides everything you need to start playing smoothly.
