Most of the original print run of Midnight Legion has sold out. Some copies of the original boxed set are available here. You can also pick up PDF or print on demand editions from DriveThru RPG:
We’ve added a supplement for Portal of Life character creation.
Each Midnight Legion gamebook can be played on its own, or the same character can progress through all three books. If you’re starting with Portal of Life, we’ve added something new—additional weapons and equipment to help you survive the challenges ahead. Download the PDF here.
The final gamebook in the Midnight Legion trilogy is here!
Your world is gone. The world that has replaced it is alien and savage, but filled with wondrous new life. In the last remaining Midnight Legion base, a computer controls technology that can destroy this life—or help it to thrive.
If you’re strong enough, you can defeat the agent who betrayed your mission. If you’re clever and skilled enough, you can solve the base’s puzzles and outwit its traps. But even then you will still need to confront the sentient, possibly deranged computer itself. What it can tell you depends on how much you are willing to sacrifice to regain the memories you have lost.
Here are samples of Portal of Life from the printer! We now expect pre-orders to ship the end of April.
Midnight Legion Book 3: The Portal of Life is being printed now, and should arrive at the homes of Kickstarter backers and anyone else who preordered in March.
Studio 9 has sold out of most of the original print runs of Midnight Legion Books 1 and 2, but both are now available as print on demand titles from DriveThru RPG.
Details: They’re available in both hardcover and softcover, and come in a standard size (6″x9″) that’s a bit bigger than the originals (6″x8.5″). They also cost a bit more (+$3-$10 depending on the title and format), except for the Book 1 softcover version, which costs $3 less than the Boxed Set since it does not contain the box or dice, and the map and Rule & Memories Book come as a free PDF accompanying the print book.
You can get the Midnight Legion, Book 1: Operation Deep Sleep POD edition here, and the Midnight Legion, Book 2: The World Reborn POD here. You may also still be able to find copies of the originals in your favorite book and hobby stores.
