SCP Operations (v1.0)

A missing Foundation professor turns northern Canada into a tense tactical investigation, where every lead can point toward a firefight, a hidden conspiracy, or something far stranger. SCP Operations is a turn-based RPG built around commanding a custom Mobile Task Force through a campaign involving the Chaos Insurgency and dangerous anomalies. Its mood sits somewhere between military thriller and paranormal horror: soldiers carry rifles and tactical gear, but conventional training does not always prepare them for what waits beyond the next door.

Missions revolve around scouting locations, gathering intelligence, managing your squad, and engaging enemies on carefully considered turns. Positioning, equipment choices, and the abilities of your trained operatives shape each encounter, rewarding players who prepare for the threat instead of charging ahead. One operation may pit your team against armed human opponents, while another demands caution around an unknown SCP anomaly with rules that are less predictable than ordinary combat. Investigation also matters outside battle, as searching areas thoroughly and piecing together environmental clues can provide useful context before the shooting starts.

What gives SCP Operations its appeal is the way it uses the SCP setting as more than a simple monster backdrop. The familiar Foundation-versus-Insurgency conflict provides a clear military objective, while the wider universe of bizarre containment failures keeps missions from feeling like standard squad tactics. Its smaller-scale RPG approach should suit players who enjoy the deliberate combat of XCOM-style games but want a campaign driven by spooky lore and field investigation rather than base management. Veterans of turn-based strategy will appreciate the emphasis on loadouts and planning, while SCP fans get a focused chance to lead their own task force into one of the setting’s most dangerous corners.
