A downloadable game

Welcome to the Helldroppers, soldier! You are now part of the elite special forces of United AmericEarth standing against anarchy, tyranny, and evil. Your job: spread Qualified Democracy across the galaxy.

HELLDROPPERS puts you in the boots of elite, highly-expendable soldiers fighting against bug and bot to defend the values of AmericEarth: Qualified Democracy, capitalism, and liberty! Use a variety of weapons and air support to defeat your enemies and liberate the galaxy.

The setting and overall vibe of this game are inspired by Helldivers 2. This is a fan project intended to be an homage to that property and a way to emulate an experience similar to Helldivers 2 in a TTRPG, not a way to make profit or compete with any official uses of the Helldivers IP. If you would like to put some money in the pocket of Mitchell Daily, go check out his other games.

The mechanics of this game are based on HELLGUTS, also by Mitchell Daily. That game is about brutally slaying demons. You might like it.

I might simply be blind, but I cannot for the life of me find where it says how to determine the health of a Helldropper PC?

Well, would you look at that! Thanks for bringing it to my attention. Because I don’t know if I’ll get that fixed tonight, Health for Helldroppers is 12+Valor.

Oh, and while we’re at it, Defense is 6+Efficiency for Helldroppers.

It's been updated! You'll find the main change on page 12 (the very end of chapter 3). Thanks again for pointing this out!

Thanks for the update! Really helpful :)
