FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Guelph, Ontario 4 April 2003 Contact: Mark C. MacKinnon, President, Guardians Of Order, Inc. Darren Watts, President, Hero Games HERO GAMES AND GUARDIANS OF ORDER TEAM-UP FOR SUPERHERO RPG CROSSOVER Hero Games and Guardians Of Order, Inc. jointly announced today plans to publish a shared-universe crossover adventure for their leading superhero role-playing games, Champions and Silver Age Sentinels. Reality Storm: When Worlds Collide will debut this summer at the GenCon Game Fair (24-27 July, 2003) in Indianapolis, Indiana. “The folks at Hero Games are a great crew and we look forward to working with them on this ground-breaking project,†said Guardians Of Order President, Mark C. MacKinnon. “During the past year we joined forces to launch advertising and co-promotional campaigns that exposed each company’s supporters to the strength and quality of the so-called ‘competition.’ When we saw how supportive our fans were of our friendly rivalry, we decided to give them what they wanted most: a superhero RPG crossover, evoking the spirit of the leading comic book crossovers of the past four decades. They asked and we listened -- this is the must-have product for every superhero RPG aficionado!†“We’re thrilled to be working with the Guardians gang on this project,†said Darren Watts, Hero Games’ President. “Not only are they a great bunch of guys, but we don’t think that anything quite like this -- mixing two companies’ settings and characters together in a crossover adventure -- has ever been done for gaming before. It’s a comic book classic, and all of us are having a fantastic time bringing it to the world of role-playing.†Reality Storm: When Worlds Collide sets the stage for a world-shattering apocalypse when arch-villains Dr. Destroyer and Kreuzritter team-up to conquer both universes! The heroes from Champions’ Millennium City and Silver Age Sentinels’ Empire City must join forces to save their worlds, but can they put aside their differences to work together or will they destroy each other first? In addition to an epic adventure, Reality Storm will also contain detailed system conversion notes for the HERO System (Champions) and Tri-Stat System (Silver Age Sentinels) to assist players switching between games. Reality Storm: When Worlds Collide will be published by Hero Games in July 2003.
