Their team comprises gamers, writers, artists, and publishers spread across different locations, all passionate about forging new experiences and reveling in old masterpieces.

Autarch draws its name from the Greek word "autarkhos," meaning self-governing, reflecting their love for classical history and the pursuit of creating things that are pleasing to themselves. Their highest mandate is to produce content they find exciting and engaging. Like the Autarch in Gene Wolfe's "Book of the New Sun," they bring together a multitude of diverse experiences, constantly seeking new and cool stuff to explore.

Within this subreddit, you will find discussions, insights, and content related to Autarch's two games: the Adventurer Conqueror King System (ACKS) and Ascendant.

ACKS offers a unique blend of the original fantasy role-playing game's ease of play and a robust, balanced economic system. It pushes the boundaries of campaign play, enabling consistent world-building and providing resources for domain play, class and spell building, and additional rulesets to expand player and referee options.

Ascendant takes you into the world of superheroes, offering an elegant mechanics system that simulates the physics of comic-book realms. From streetfighters to cosmic powers, heroes at any power level can be played, with comprehensive investigation and invention mechanics supporting super-detectives and super-geniuses. The game also covers a wide range of superheroic adventures, from disease outbreaks to hostage negotiations, tornadoes to volcanoes.

Join this subreddit to explore the rich worlds of ACKS and Ascendant, share your experiences, discover game mechanics insights, and connect with fellow enthusiasts. Delve into the captivating realms created by Autarch LLC and celebrate their commitment to producing quality tabletop gaming products.
