The WARS Roleplaying Game is a tabletop role-playing game published by Mongoose Publishing in 2005. It uses the d20 System and is based on the WARS Trading Card Game, so players take the setting of that card game into a conventional d20 style roleplaying campaign. It belongs to a wave of standalone games that publishers released in the mid 2000s which relied on the Open Game License rather than on the d20 trademark license or on the core rulebooks of Dungeons and Dragons. Game historian Shannon Appelcline noted Mongoose as an early leader of that trend, releasing six such games from 2003 onward. A planned supplement, WARS: Soul and Steel, was never printed and instead ran in the magazine Signs and Portents from issue 39 in December 2006 to issue 51 in December 2007.
