CORPS

The CORPS game system, created by Greg Porter was in its first 1990 edition the Conspiracy Oriented Roleplaying System, which was later revised and re-named the Complete Omniversal Role Playing System to focus purely on being a generic role-playing game system.

The original game, created by Greg Porter in 1990, was titled the Conspiracy Oriented Role Playing System, a techno-thriller about conspiracies using magic and super-science to compete against each other in the modern world.

Supplements for the original system:

In 1995, the system was rewritten as a generic role-playing game system, and renamed Complete Omniversal Role Playing System. The original conspiracy game was kept as one of many possible settings, while the basic game system was streamlined but kept largely intact. Blacksburg Tactical Research Center ceased creating further materials for the system in 2003. Existing CORPS works are still available as PDFs and via print on demand, while the original conspiracy game was converted to a setting for BTRC's EABA generic RPG system.

Supplements released for this edition included Down in Flames (1999).

In August 2008, the game company Applied Vectors entered into a new contract to create the CORPS Rules Expansion, which included a host of add-ons for the original game, including a bestiary and reprinted material from the first edition game. This was made available in April 2009.

In September 2011, Applied Vectors announced a license agreement with BTRC to produce the 3rd edition of the CORPS roleplaying game. This was intended to be a complete overhaul of the system, but as of March 31, 2018 no product other than the CORPS Rules Expansion has appeared and the company seems to be concentrating its efforts on other game systems.

In 2016, BTRC re-released the original conspiracy game as a setting for its EABAv2 generic game system.
