THE AUTHORITY AND STORMWATCH ROLE-PLAYING GAMES BY GUARDIANS OF ORDER

Guardians Of Order, Inc. announced today that it will publish a
role-playing game line based on the two critically acclaimed comic book
series The Authority and StormWatch. The Authority core rulebook will
debut in spring 2004, with supplements following throughout the year.
The
Authority and StormWatch are published by WildStorm Productions, an
imprint of DC Comics.

"The Authority is undoubtedly one of the best new super hero comics
published in recent years," said Guardians Of Order President, Mark C.
MacKinnon, "building on the dynamic and gripping universe created in
StormWatch. We are thrilled by the opportunity to bring Jack Hawksmoor,
the Midnighter, Apollo, Jenny Sparks, the Engineer, Swift, the Doctor,
and
the entire Authority/StormWatch universe to the gaming table using our
popular Tri-Stat System mechanics. Rife with hidden agendas, godlike
powers, and nearly unstoppable opponents, this comic universe provides
the
perfect playground for super hero RPG enthusiasts."

"As a long time fan and gamer, I'm personally thrilled and anxiously
looking forward to an Authority/StormWatch RPG game," said Jim Lee,
Editorial Director -- WildStorm. "Given these books' hard hitting, edgy
approach to characters and plotlines, I'm sure this RPG will be unlike
any
other and open the door for gamers to direct and experience their own
all-new, over the top adventures."

StormWatch is the United Nations Special Crisis Intervention Team,
comprised of superhuman beings from around the globe, under the control
of
Henry Bendix, the Weatherman. From its beginning as a frustrated police
force, StormWatch changes over the years into a proactive arm of global
stability. StormWatch Prime deals with superhuman threats in hotwar
situations; StormWatch Red is charged with deterrent display and
retaliation; and StormWatch Black handles covert insertion in this time
of
urban, low intensity warfare. Their foes range from terrorists, to
aliens,
to superpowered revolutionaries -- the outcome is only the fate of the
world.

The Authority rose from the ashes of StormWatch, yet was something
brand new. The Authority introduces "widescreen" superheroics to comics,
where supervillains do not hold back; they fly across the world in
droves,
devastating cities beneath them � until the Authority can act, changing
things for the better. The Authority is a group of immensely powerful
heroes, with bold vision, and a no-holds-barred attitude. They are
masked
adventurers with an agenda, and no reason to maintain the status quo.
The
threats they face literally run off the charts, threatening nations,
civilizations, and even humanity itself.
