Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No - it’s a Masked Kitty! …. possibly after that bird actually… but let’s not distract ourselves…. Meowtropolis is a superhero setting for the Magical Kitties Save The Day RPG by Atlas Games!
Meowtropolis is a big bustling city filled with supervillains plotting to control the planet, steal the world’s largest diamond, or get revenge on everybody who ever laughed at them. When Meowtropolis is threatened (and it’s threatened a lot), the city’s magical kitties need to save the day. Unlike most magical kitties, these kitties wear bright costumes and have superhero names like Thunder Kitty of The Invisible Claw. But they must keep their secret identites hidden!
The Kickstarter campaign isn’t only raising money for your furry masked heroes, as Atlas also have two other brand new books for the game - Trouble in River City and Mice’s Gambit.
Trouble in River City is a collection of six adventures, including Mall of DOOM! which sees shambling humans moaning about braiiins… outside of the mall’s cafe cafe, and Little League which sees the our feline protectors trying to stop meddling fey tampering with the players, their equipment, and the scoreboard at the River City Little League Championship.
Mice’s Gambit is a solo-play adventure puzzle book. Fint out if your kitty can outwit the Mice Resistance and solve the mystery of the enchanted chessboard!
You can find out more on the Meowtropolis Kickstarter page, which runs through to mid-April.

Actual play shows, such as Critical Role and Dimension 20 have been massively popular over the last ten years. Episodes can attract millions of viewers and Critical Role have sold out arenas across the globe, including Wembley Arena shows that sold out in under an hour. Dungeons & Dragons has often been the game of choice for shows and now D&D publisher Wizards of the Coast is getting in to the act with a new actual play series called ‘Dungeon Masters’ launching on YouTube on 22nd April.

SALUTE 53, Europe’s largest independen wargames show, took place at the London ExCel on Saturday 11th April, hosted by the South London Warlords. Originating back in 1972 the first SALUTE was held at the Surrey tavern at the Oval Cricket Ground, just south of the Thames. It’s fair to say that it’s come a long way in the last 53 years.
