    • An equipment list, including weapons, armour, and gadgets, to equip your heroes for battle

    • Sixteen example sessions, for new GMs to get started with right away
    • Examples of play, and fun suggestions to flesh out events and consequences – such as a fumble table, for when things go wrong, or random events to strike the city the heroes are sworn to protect
