Death is not an escape.
TARTARUS is a miniature agnostic skirmish game set in a post-apocalyptic alternate timeline where humanity evolved into a deeply secular society – and was ultimately punished for it. Earth has become a fractured hellscape ruled by seven cosmic horrors drifting in orbit. Even death has lost all meaning, for you will simply rise again, perpetuating the cycle of violence for the pleasure of the new rulers. Take command over a warband of thralls – broken warriors, mind-warped cultists, or ravenous creatures – all vying for power, survival, or the favor of the ancient, ever-watching Archon Moons.
This free Quick Start gives you everything you need to play your first games of TARTARUS.
