Written by Cynthia Celeste Miller and Eddy Webb Cartoon Action Hour (or CAH as we like to abbreviate it) is a roleplaying game dedicated to the action cartoons of the 1980s. From Transformers, GI Joe, He-Man, and Thundarr to MASK, Bravestarr, Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors, and a whole lot in between, Cartoon Action Hour allows you to recreate your favorite cartoons and play in their world. With Cartoon Action Hour's powerful yet flexible system you can even create your own characters and shows in the vein of the '80s action cartoons. From the pilot episode to the after-message segment to the movie, you can run any type of '80s action cartoon. The main book, at 192 pages, gives you all you need including rules for creating vehicles, animal companions, handling goons, creating merging robots, building spell clusters - anything you can think of for your '80s action cartoon adventure. You'll also get a collection of series seeds: information on various series that GMs and players can flesh out for their own adventures. Finally, you'll also get the Series Book, Iconia. This book details
the He-Man-like series, Warriors of the Cosmos, complete with information
on races, locations, and stats for the main heroes and villians.
You'll also get character templates, allowing you to create a character
in under 5 minutes. As a bonus, you'll also get an 11-episode guide
to the series of Warriors of the Cosmos so GMs have a jumping off
point for their group's adventures. You can check out a sample of the game by downloading the demo rules and short adventure on the right (Playset and Action Pack 1 respectively).
