🔗 Share this article The Division Makes Its Way to the Tabletop as a Brutally Tactical TTRPG The intense world of Tom Clancy’s The Division is being translated into a dice-based role-playing experience. A collaboration was established to create a TTRPG set within the franchise’s apocalyptic landscape. This initiative was revealed, with a crowdfunding campaign scheduled to launch in the spring of 2026. "This endeavor will bring the franchise’s distinctive tension, tactical intensity, and memorable setting to the tabletop, offering fans a fresh avenue to experience The Division through immersive storytelling and player-driven missions," reads an announcement. Launch products are set to feature a starter set, core rulebooks, a GM screen, figurines, and several deluxe editions. Delving Into The Division's Dystopian World In this setting, a deadly virus known as Green Poison was unleashed in New York City, sending the United States into turmoil. As the pandemic worsens, society crumbles and hostile groups rise, turning the city into a battlefield. To restore law and order, the government {activate|deploy] The Division, a secret cell of undercover operatives. That’s where the players enter the story. Development on the RPG has been underway for about several years, and it is reportedly complete. The forthcoming crowdfunding effort will serve as a pre-launch sales platform to access a wider market, specifically in the United States. Production will start right after the fundraiser, with deliveries projected for the latter part of 2026. An Innovative Tactical System: The GRIS System An early look at the system confirms it uses 10-sided dice predominantly through its proprietary GRIS system, promoting a streamlined and tactical style. Agents leverage abilities to roll small dice pools, typically from one to five d10s. Instead of adding results together, players choose a single “resolution die” from the pool. This dice is then compared against a set challenge number. Rolling a natural 10 triggers special effects, such as increased harm or enhanced aid. Engagements Emphasize Positioning and Situational Insight Battles prioritize positioning and environmental awareness, reflecting the video games. Factors like cover, elevation, or visibility have a direct impact success chances. This mechanic is designed to reward coordination and clever tactics instead of simple statistics. A Thematic Wound Mechanic The way injuries is tracked adds a interesting narrative layer. Operatives have a injury limit; sustaining too much damage reduces their effectiveness by lowering the number of d10s. At zero health, an operative is downed, but they’re not unconscious. They may still move and take limited actions, emulating the "downed" state common to video game shooters. Any player knocked down must consult a injury chart, potentially gaining lingering conditions like trauma or mobility-impairing wounds. An Introductory Scenario A publicly available Quickstart Guide will be released in the near future. It includes a ready-to-play introductory scenario called Ashes of Murray Hill. In this scenario, the group lead the hunt for a lost doctor squad and must thwart an assault by the notorious Rikers faction, who have taken over that Manhattan district. More specifics and the full range of offerings are expected to be unveiled closer to the campaign launch.
