Digital storefront Fanatical has launched a new tabletop bundle offering a comprehensive library for the cult-classic Paranoia XP roleplaying game. Published by Mongoose Publishing, the collection includes up to 21 digital rulebooks, mission packs, and supplements, all redeemable directly through DriveThruRPG.
Set in Alpha Complex, a darkly humorous dystopian future ruled by a deranged but well-meaning artificial intelligence known as The Computer, Paranoia tasks players with rooting out traitors, mutants, and secret society members. Because the system encourages backstabbing, hidden agendas, and catastrophic misunderstandings, player characters, known as Troubleshooters, rarely survive their mandatory missions. This high-casualty, competitive approach makes the award-winning system a tabletop standout for chaotic sessions.
Mandatory Rules and Supplements
The bundle provides all the necessary tools to run the 2005 revised edition of the game. The core rules are established in Paranoia Service Pack 1, which provides the foundation for surviving Alpha Complex.
Beyond the core book, the collection offers deep expansions to the setting. Criminal Histories completely overhauls character creation, allowing ambitious players to generate lengthy rap sheets, rivalries, and contraband equipment before the game even begins. Extreme Paranoia expands the scope of the game entirely, giving game masters the rules needed to elevate players from the lowly RED security clearance all the way up to the illustrious VIOLET tier.
For game masters needing quick content, the Mandatory Mission Pack offers dozens of drop-in plot seeds and bizarre encounters, while massive catalogues like Stuff provide astoundingly large lists of highly unreliable equipment to issue to unsuspecting Troubleshooters.
Bundle Tiers
The collection is split into three pricing tiers, allowing players to grab the basics or secure the entire £90 value collection at a steep discount.
- Pay £0.90 for 2 items: The entry-level tier includes the essential Paranoia Service Pack 1 (the main rulebook) and the Crash Priority mission supplement.
- Pay £4.45 for 8 items: This mid-level tier adds expansive setting guides, including Extreme Paranoia, The Little RED Book, The Thin Green Line, The Traitor’s Manual, The Underplex, and The Big Book of Bots.
- Pay £8.90 for 21 items: The complete bundle includes everything above, plus Criminal Histories, Service, Service!, the Mandatory Mission Pack, Stuff and Stuff 2: The Gray Subnets, WMD, and classic mission collections like Flashbacks and Alpha Complex Nights.
