Albedo is a role-playing game based on Steve Gallacci's Erma Felina, EDF and Birthright storylines, from the funny animal comic anthologies Albedo and Critters.Current Edition
In 2004, Sanguine Productions published ALBEDO: PLATINUM CATALYST, the current edition of the role-playing game. The game was published as a single softcover with source material, rules of engagement, and sample characters. Most notable are its attention to details of small-unit tactics using near-future and far-future weaponry, in the same vein as Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six and other "techno thrillers", as well as using genetically-engineered people as a morality play for 20th Century geopolitics.Previous Editions
Written by Craig Hilton and Paul Kidd, it was originally published as a box set of manuals; the RPG was later revised and published by Chessex in 1993 as a softcover. There is one companion sourcebook and a pair of ready-made scenarios, also in softcover:
- Albedo Ship Sourcebook (Kidd, Gallacci - Chessex, 1995)
- The Drift (Kidd - Chessex, 1994), an adventure scenario in space.
- Zho-Chaka (Kidd - Chessex, 1994), an adventure scenario on a ConFed planet.
There also exists a third-party guide to converting Albedo for use with the GURPS RPG system, written by Fred M. Sloniker and called, appropriately enough, GURPS Albedo.
