Death and conflict are pumped into the always-on TVs in every home, while the company SLA Industries fights to retain control over the known universe: The World of Progress.
This is a place where guns can be used to solve most problem, but it's also a universe where guns are used to sweep problems under the rug. The player’s role is as an Operative working for SLA Industries in the grey areas of morality. Find your way in an uncertain universe while still trying to earn enough to pay your rent and get a little bit of recognition in the process.
Like everything in the universe of SLA Industries, there's a lot under the surface of being an Operative, and it's up to you how much you want to uncover.
SLA Histories
Before Savage SLA, there was SLA Industries (pronounced “Slay Industries”). An award-winning role-playing game that was first published in Scotland in 1993. The game is a horror noir science-fiction setting set in a dystopian reality in which the majority of the known universe is either owned or indirectly controlled by the eponymous corporation SLA Industries. SLA Industries is considered one of the first and best examples of the Splatterpunk genre in RPGs.
The World of Progress, the universe in which SLA Industries operates, is a science-fiction image of the 1980s, where the fax machine spews out information alongside green-screen computers and vat-grown biogenetic monsters, who compete with humans and exotic alien races for work in an overgrown city that plunges deep underground.
Players in SLA Industries take on the role of an Operative, the highly-trained and well-equipped freelancers that serve as the company’s agents, investigators and enforcers. Operatives perform tasks for both a pay packet and the promise of an increase in their security clearance, as both provide them access to an increased standard of living, better equipment, progression up the corporate ladder and sponsorship opportunities. Most of all though, they strive for the one thing that everyone in the media-driven World of Progress wants: Notoriety.
