From publisher blurb:
"Oh no! There goes Tokyo!"
Michael Surbrook, Evil Beagle's resident scholar and master-of-cleverness, turns his gaze to another region of popular culture as he explores the genre launched by 1954's Them! Irradiated monstrocities are a whole new kind of challenge for your heroes, coming from an old-yet-still-compelling source.
Atomic Monsters is a concise, easy-to-consume, immediately useful treatise on how to create and use freakish monsters from atomic nightmares in your campaign. Sections include -
It Came from Beneath the Sea: Where do these things come from?
Them! What are these things, what do they want, and what do they eat?
Crush, Crumble, and Stomp: The weapons of the beast!
And much more!
Michael finishes up by giving you three sample creatures in Hero System 6th stats to launch at your heroes and ruin their world - Atomic Wasps, a Giant Sea Scorpion, and Radioactive Sentient Slime Mold (from Space)!
