Battle Armor RPG from Eternity Comics
I’ve got a pretty good knowledge of roleplaying games of the eighties and nineties, with my brain loaded with near-useless information on obscure and popular games of the time. Even games I know almost nothing about I at least have heard the name once in my life. Well, that’s completely untrue of Battle Armor a three issue comic book roleplaying game that was published by Eternity Comics in the late eighties. Published between 1988 and 1989, the three issues . . . well, so far I don’t quite know what is inside these comics. All I know is that this 1988 ad from an issue of White Wolf magazine has completely caught my attention.
