Editing Dominion Tank Police (section)

=The Splatbook=
The Dominion Tank Police RPG is explicitly based '''exclusively''' on the content of the first four OAVs, since [[Guardians of Order]] couldn't get the license for New DTP or the manga from Central Park Media Corporation. As a warning label notes, it also bases a fair bit of its info on stuff written by the series creature in articles and notes.

So, what's in the book?

Chapter 1 is the obligatory ''Introduction''. Aside from the expected "what's an RPG and how do you RPG" stuff, it also provides an in-depth synopsis of each of the four original OAVs and briefly covers the existence of the post-OAV DTP media (the manga, Conflict 1, New DTP, a oneshot manga called ''Phantom of the Audience'' and an artbook) and where to find them... at least, at the time of the book's printing (second printing was 1999, so you can imagine that this shit is ''long'' outta date!)

Chapters 2 and 3, ''Character Creation'' and ''Game Mechanics'' respectively, are the core of the book's crunchy material, and are where you'll find the TriStat/BESM system. Chapter 2 is most interesting for having lore profiles and stat-ups for the major characters of the original OAVs.

Chapter 4, ''The World of Dominion'', is all about the lore, immersing the reader in the dystopian yet blackly comedic world of ''Dominion''.

Chapter 5 is ''The Game Master's Section''.

Chapter 6 features two ''Sample Adventures''.

Chapter 7, ''Reference Section'' talks about the creator's published works and translates the songs from the OAVs.

Finally, there's two appendixes; one for how to make your own mecha, and one for personal gear.
