Description

"The game is intuitive, fun, high-powered (something I love in my RPGs) and more important than all, dripping with flavour." 

"This book transforms D&D 5e into a proper shooter."

"What Ultramodern5 offers is so much more than just converted and re-skinned D&D races, classes, and backgrounds." 

"Ultramodern5 is a great toolkit, providing everything you could need to place a 5th Edition Campaign in a modern/sci-fi/western or similar setting." 

In 2016, Ultramodern5 exploded onto the gaming scene. On DriveThruRPG, it earned a Copper badge in a day, Silver in two, finally reaching Platinum after only three months—at the time, one of only two third-party 5E books to do so. 

The mission of UM5 is to present 5th EDITION rules for use in non-fantasy settings. These included pre-modern and contemporary settings as well as those in the far flung fantastic future.  UM5 presents modern and science fiction rules in a game usually reserved for fantasy. There is "official" setting in UM5.
