Rage Across New York is the first location sourcebook for Werewolf: The Apocalypse. RANY expands on topics initially presented in the first-edition Werewolf: The Apocalypse Rulebook, especially the politics surrounding the New York City-based Sept of the Green. RANY is also notable for introducing the Seventh Generation, a cult of the Wyrm that is infamous among Garou and players alike.
Summary
From the White Wolf 1992 Catalog:
- The Wyrm has extended its corruption far across the world, but few areas have suffered like the Empire State. From the squalid tenements of Manhattan to the toxic waste pits of Love Canal, Gaia has suffered here like nowhere else. But the Garou will contain their rage no longer. Now let the Wyrm beware. Rage Across New York is a Chronicle setting for any Storyteller, detailing some of the greatest threats the werewolves must face, as well as expanded rules on the spirit world and spiritual magic.
From the Back of the Book:
In the City That Never Sleeps...
New York - a state of extremes. From the lush upstate forests to the teeming streets of New York City, the Garou wage their war against the despoilers of Gaia. The Wyrm's coils slither under the Empire State, wreaking corruption upon the innocent and forgotten: the children.
A Nightmare Awakens
From dark Adirondack caverns to the Big Apple, the foul serpent tempts all with its power. The Garou must overcome their own rivalries and heal their past pain to stem the growing tide of corruption and depravity.
Rage Across New York is the first chronicle setting for Werewolf. It includes:
- Descriptions of the Garou tribes and their nemeses spread across the state, from the spiritual enclave of the Black Furies to the darkest, festering secret of the Wyrm: the Seventh Generation.
- The "real" history of the New World and New York State.
- Encounter suggestions providing opportunities to strike a blow against the Wyrm, including a battle map for running a detailed combat in the dank sewers of "The City."
