During the Cold War, the United States and the U.S.S.R. sent tons of weapons to this country, and these quickly spread throughout the land. However, the post-Cold War era provided the worst weapon: famine. Turned into a tool of extermination by ruthless warlords, Somalia soon became a test for the rest of the worldâs ability and resolve to bring peace. This grand effort to create a New World Order died in the sands next to the gaunt corpses of starved babies. Did it have to end that way? The entire world sent food. The United Nations sent peacekeepers to safeguard the food deliveries. The United States sent its best troops - Rangers, SEALs, Delta Force Operatives and others - supported by its best weapons, to catch the warlords and make them pay for their crimes. All of these failed in the face of a country where it seemed every man carried an assault rifle, and the world surrendered Somalia to the whims of bandits and rogue militias. Did it have to end that way? Somalia gave the finest troops in the world the chance to make a difference, but they left the country as embattled as when they arrived. Still, it gave a few courageous warriors the opportunity to save an entire country from famine and chaos. Who could refuse the opportunity, and who could do anything but try? Real-Life Roleplaying Somalia: d20 comes complete with everything needed to lead the worldâs greatest troops in the effort to save a dying country, including: ⢠Information on special forces from around the world, including Delta Force, the SAS, Spetsnaz, the French Foreign Legion, and more; ⢠Nine advanced classes, including Military Clergy, Snipers, Street Militia, and Warlords; ⢠D20 rules for using the most lethal weapons in the special forces arsenal, including prototype assault rifles, a variety of rocket launchers, landmines and much more; ⢠Rules to make firefights more realistic - and more deadly; ⢠More than 25 new feats, as well as dozens of new class abilities; ⢠A complete adventure, ready to play; ⢠Optional uses of the setting, ranging from the past to the near future; and ⢠A strategic campaign that gives the characters the chance to make a difference in one of the worst horror spots on Earth. Somalia: d20 requires the use of a Roleplaying Game Core Book published by Wizards of the Coast.…

From the Spanish conquests of the 16th century to the 19th- and 20th-century peasant uprisings, the land has seen much spilt blood and little stability. In the modern era, the Drug War ups the ante even more, with drug lords, leftists guerillas, right-wing paramilitaries, and U.S. special ops troops and mercenaries all fighting one another for what they perceive as theirs, whether it be money, political power or protection of oil pipelines. The little guy, as always, is caught in the middle, trapped between warring ideologies. Colombia: d20 takes you into this real-world locale, explaining the countryâs tumultuous history, geography, and power players. This sourcebook, another in HDIâs Real-Life Roleplaying series, immerses you in the turmoil, forcing you to confront two political extremes and whole lot of corruption in between. Nobody can enter this tangle of vendettas and greed without coming away with a deeper understanding of what drives Colombians to do the things they do, whether it be to fight for a better life, to go for the money or to just survive against all odds with dignity intact. Colombia: d20 comes with everything you need to run roleplaying adventures in this fascinating South America country, including: ⢠A summary of Colombian history, including present conditions. ⢠Information on guerilla movements in Latin America and how to roleplay them. ⢠New advanced character classes: the combat journalist, the guerilla fighter, the hitman, the political zealot, and the treasure hunter. ⢠New rules, feats and weapons. ⢠A complete sample setting, the town of Medilaca. ⢠Two adventures, ready to play, thrusting characters into the underworld of kidnapping and the Drug War. ⢠A strategic campaign, displaying all sides of the conflicts plaguing Colombia and giving characters a chance to solve these problems. ⢠Suggested alternative world campaigns.
