Welcome to The Mechanized Wasteland!
not the final cover
An Epic Dieselpunk Survival Adventure for D&D 5E for levels 5-9, following the events of the Rise of Vaporia.
Ah, my brave students!
You’ve survived the gritty streets of Vaporia, but are you ready to face what lies beyond? Welcome to The Mechanized Wasteland, the thrilling second chapter in our Vaporia trilogy, where survival becomes an art, and danger lurks in every rusty gear and oil-stained shadow.
What’s inside?
- 55+ pages of carefully crafted adventures designed for characters of levels 5 to 9.
- New Survival Mechanics designed specifically for navigating the unforgiving wastelands of Vaporia.
- Detailed Lore and Survival Rules, making your adventure gritty and realistic, including scavenging, vehicle combat, and environmental hazards.
- Dieselpunk Bestiary: Terrifying new foes and rogue machines!
- Interactive Encounters: Choices matter more than ever in the wasteland.
In the Mechanized Wasteland, staying alive is your greatest challenge
After unraveling the mysteries of the city’s underbelly, our heroes are thrust into the unforgiving wastelands surrounding Vaporia. Here, survival is not guaranteed. The wastelands are harsh and unyielding, filled with rogue automatons, hostile survivors, and environmental hazards that demand cunning, teamwork, and grit.
Engaging and adaptable content
Your group’s size matters more than ever in The Mechanized Wasteland. Smaller parties slip unnoticed between monstrous machines, scavenger gangs, and sinister wasteland bosses, making stealth and cunning your greatest allies.
On the other hand, if you venture forth with a larger band of intrepid adventurers (companions included), prepare yourself for epic encounters, massive battles, armies of mechanical foes, and thrilling survival scenarios that will push your party’s skills to the limit!
Whether you prefer stealthy exploration or epic clashes, the wasteland adapts to your group’s style, offering a personalized experience every step of the way.
Part of a greater story, but Stands Alone!
While this chapter continues your journey from The Rise of Vaporia, The Mechanized Wasteland is crafted as a complete adventure on its own. Enjoy it independently with a fully developed beginning, middle, and dramatic conclusion, or weave it seamlessly into the larger trilogy for an unforgettable campaign through Vaporia!
