    Based on the Modern AGE ruleset.

    The irony is that The Expanse was first conceived as an online RPG setting. They couldn’t get funding, so they played it “mail in” style on a forum. This became the basis of the first book. The book series was, in turn, turned into an tabletop RPG. We’ve almost gone full circle.
