Phalanx...To The Fore!

Rise of the Phalanx is an epic adventure series for Icons Superpowered Roleplaying, taking a group of novice heroes and making them heirs to a noble—and tragic—heroic legacy. It features five adventures suitable for hours of game-play, including:

  • Flight of the Nova-1: When supervillains hijack an experimental space shuttle, it's up to the heroes to bring it and its crew safely back to Earth.
  • Cold War Conundrum: A stolen nuclear warhead leads the heroes on a world-wide chase to thwart the schems of the Arsenal.
  • The Nemesis Crisis: Heroes and villains are pitted against each other by the Cosmic Justicar with the fate of the Earth in the balance.
  • The Metaskulk Invasion: An old foe conducts a campaign of misinformation against the heroes, culminating in an alien invasion.
  • Reign of Chaos: The climatic battle to save the Earth from the master-villain behind it all ... Reign!

Rise of the Phalanx also offers a rogues gallery of villains — two complete teams, invading aliens, cosmic beings, and evil masterminds — along with complete write-ups of the original Phalanx team and the opportunity to play them!
