Mutants & Masterminds 3E x2
Monday 13 September 2021

In September 2021 we presented
two offers featuring
Mutants & Masterminds Third Edition (2011), The World’s Greatest Superhero RPG from
Green Ronin Publishing. First, we revived the January 2019
M&M Earth-Prime Bundle with the core rulebook and essential supplements. And its small but powerful
all-new sidekick,
Mutants Power-Up, added three recent supplements and sourcebooks.
First published in 2002,
Mutants & Masterminds started as an Open Game License d20 spinoff. Designer
Steve Kenson (
Icons) creatively modified and expanded the d20 System to reflect the unique demands of a superhero game. Character generation, character advancement, damage, and saves are all different from the traditional d20 System. Today the superhero RPG Green Ronin likes to call “the World’s Greatest” is much more than a system. It offers two well-developed settings, Freedom City and Emerald City, and you can easily create your own setting. You can even publish your own setting through Green Ronin’s
“Super-Powered by M&M” Trademark License, which allows third-party publishers to use “product identity” text.
We’ve presented
M&M several times, and in two different editions: a 2E bundle in December 2014, and a sprawling 3E offer in April 2014 (revived in August 2016 alongside a new “Power Boost” companion). The standalone January 2019
Earth-Prime offer, revived here, had the
Basic Hero’s Handbook especially designed for new players, plus a sharp-focus lineup that lets you fly straight into four-color comic-book superhero action.
M&M 3E EARTH-PRIME
[from Jan 2019]

If you’re new to
Mutants & Masterminds, start here with these introductory rulebooks and sourcebooks: the
M&M Basic Hero’s Handbook with stripped-down Third Edition rules for newcomers; the
Rogues Gallery collection of dozens of supervillains; and the classic
M&M campaign setting
Freedom City updated for 3E.

This offer’s
Bonus Collection added
three more titles worth an additional
$63, including the complete 320-page
Deluxe Hero’s Handbook with all the rules you need for any situation; the
Atlas of Earth-Prime, a 270-page guide to the entire world of
M&M; and
Hero High, about the travails of super-powered teens training to become the heroes of tomorrow.
MUTANTS POWER-UP [all-new]

There were
three titles in this new companion
Power-Up offer (retail value
$66), including the complete
M&M 3E Deluxe Gamemaster’s Guide, the
Superteam Handbook, and the
Time Traveler’s Codex sourcebook, plus the free
Codex overflow book
All Time, No Space.

Ten percent of each payment (after gateway fees) for these two
Mutants & Masterminds offers went to the charity chosen by Chris Pramas of Green Ronin Publishing, the
California Community Foundation Wildfire Recovery Fund. The Wildfire Recovery Fund supports intermediate and long-term recovery efforts for major California wildfires, as well as preparedness efforts. Since 2003, the fund has granted more than $30 million to support relief and recovery efforts in the aftermath of devastating California wildfires.
