SSDC, Inc. is a small publisher of role-playing games and poetry collections, based in Rochester, New York. Their two product lines are the Battlelords of the 23rd Century science-fiction role-playing game, and the Blood Dawn post-apocalyptic RPG. SSDC was formed by Michael Osadciw and Aaron Thies, two former employees of Optimus Design Systems. SSDC acquired the licenses to these products from Optimus Design Systems in September 1999. The first project of SSDC was reprinting the Battlelords of the Twenty-Third Century core book. This reprint was also the 10th anniversary edition release of the Battlelords role-playing game, which has been in existence since 1990. SSDC has retained the writing services of Lawrence R. Sims for the Battlelords product line, in addition to which we are also looking to other writers to help expand and improve the Battlelords RPG. Since 1999, the company has focused on the Battlelords universe, bringing several books back into print while producing new supplements. There are currently 7 supplements to the main rulebook available in-print, with others out of print at this time. The most recent supplement, Engines of War, was released in August 2007.
