Defending The Earth: The UNIT Sourcebook from Crucible 7

Crucible 7 have recently revealed the latest expansion of their Doctor Who: Adventures in Time and Space Role Playing Game, the Defending The Earth: UNIT set, which will be released by Crucible 7 this April. Another expansion in Crucible 7’s Doctor Who: Adventures in Time and Space Role Playing Game, focusing on the Alien and Creature in Doctor Who, is currently available for pre order from Crucible 7.

UNIT first made an appearance in Doctor Who during The Web of Fear, with Patrick Troughton as the Second Doctor, and later became a recurring element in Doctor Who, with the introduction of Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart. After The Web of Fear, Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart appeared throughout Doctor Who working with the majority of the Doctor’s.

Crucible 7 haven’t confirmed when they will be releasing the Defending The Earth: The UNIT Sourcebook, only that its currently due for April. Both Defending The Earth: The UNIT Sourcebook and Aliens and Creatures set are currently available for pre order on Crucible 7’s website here and here. Crucible 7 haven’t announced yet whether or not if any further expansions for the Doctor Who: Adventures in Time and Space Role Playing Game will be released.

Front and centre, soldier! You're part of UNIT now, the Unified Intelligence Taskforce. We are the Earth's best defence against the myriad alien forces who would try to subjugate and conquer our planet. Try they might, but they will meet UNIT: a global military force tasked with protecting the planet and researching the alien threat.

It's not an easy job, and even those recruited for their scientific knowledge can find themselves on the front lines of combat against an almost unstoppable foe. It's dangerous, violent and not everyone will survive, but for the good of the planet we will do everything in our power to protect humanity from extraterrestrial terrors.
Defending the Earth is an expansion set for the Doctor Who: Adventures in Time and Space roleplaying game. Within this box you will find:

•160 page rulebook detailing the history of UNIT, along with additional information for creating UNIT characters, including new Traits and Areas of Expertise, as well as expanded firearms and combat rules, including mass combat and skirmish rules.

•32 page Adventure book, featuring a whole new ready-to-play adventure and many ideas for additional stories.

•Character sheets for major UNIT personnel, including the legendary Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart.
