Masterbook Companion

Masterbook Companion is a 1996 tabletop game supplement published by West End Games for Masterbook.

Contents

Masterbook Companion is a supplement in which a consolidation and expansion is provided to the rules. Designed to streamline gameplay and enhance flexibility, it brings together material published across multiple previous sourcebooks while introducing new content. Organized by topic, the volume begins with character creation enhancements—offering background perks and drawbacks—followed by new skills and equipment. A chapter on magic features ready-made spells and guidance for crafting custom ones, while vehicle combat rules (originally from The World of Tank Girl) add tactical variety. The book presents a world-building framework and discusses techniques for integrating multiple genres within campaigns. To round things out, it includes a comprehensive index of MasterBook rules and a guide for converting between the MasterBook and D6 systems.[1]

Reception

Andy Butcher reviewed Masterbook Companion for Arcane magazine, rating it a 7 out of 10 overall, and stated that "You can't really fault the MasterBook Companion. It achieves what it sets out to do, providing MasterBook referees with a range of new material and previously published rules in a convenient form. It's certainly not a particularly exciting release, but it is a worthwhile one."[1]
