Almost twenty years after the original Metamorphosis Alpha (1976) - the legendary parent of Gamma World - TSR published an updated version (`Alpha to Omega`) in the Amazing Engine system.
Once, it was a generation ship, carrying one and a half million colonists from Earth through the emptiness of space to the distant worlds of the Xi Ursae Majoris system. Then came the Crisis. During the anarchy that followed, most of the ship's crew perished, while others mutated into strange, wonderful, and deadly new species. Now centuries later, descendants of those survivors strive to explore their strange new world and discover its secrets.
Welcome to the strange world of the Starship Warden, where sentient plants and intelligent animals share the crowded decks of a giant spaceship with mutants and primitive pure-strain humans. this is the world of METAMORPHOSIS ALPHA TO OMEGA - a world of weird science where centaur cowboys tend intelligent cattle while keeping a sharp eye out for minotaur rustlers; a world where amazons hunt robots and your most trusted friend could be an android in disguise; a world where mutant and pure-strainedűű humans strive to come to terms with one another, while other new races fight to establish their own niches. All the old knowledge about how the ship's technology works, even the fact that they are aboard a spaceship at all, was lost long ago. Will your player characters survive all these challenges and be the ones to unravel the ship's many secrets and initiate Operation Exodus?
Originally published in 1976, METAMORPHOSIS ALPHA TO OMEGA has been adapted, expanded and updated to fit in the Amazing Engine system.
This is a complete, stand-alone roleplaying game: all the rules you need to play are included within.
