GATE Happens, only instead of leading to modern-day Tokyo, the gate opens up in the last non-fantasy RPG setting you gamed in.

What happens?

Mutant Chronicles.

Welp, they're fucked.

Just how fucked depends on where the gate opens.

Megacorp controlled sector: After a horrifically one-sided slaughterfest, I can see the megacorps ruthlessly exploiting the locals. On the plus side, the people in that world are used to fighting monsters so with a little training they should be helpful against the Dark Legion.

Dark Legion controlled sector: You poor bastards..... Algeroth's legions pour through the gate and start slaughtering everything in their path. Then the Dark Apostles erect Black Citadels and start processing the entire population into Necromutants, Undead Legionaries or worse.

Arguably Earth would be the best scenario I doubt Whitestar is interested in sending an expeditionary force through what is almost certainly a Dark Legion trick. I still would give those orcs and romans about a day before they wander into a Radioactive hot zone and die puking.

Oh, they're in trouble. The Orcs and Romans are probably dead the second the go through the gate. If the radiation doen't get them, they'll blunder into a Wormling den or something.

Of course that leaves the Gate itself. Someone will find it. Maybe the Black Hats, which would not be pretty. The Reckoners WILL sense this disturbance and go looking for it. Then the people of Gate world are in for an apocalypse of their own.

So there's another pandora gate now, but there's actually sapient life behind it. Probably would be a bunch of argument about the ethics of uplifting the fantasy sapient-beings to transhumanity.

Might be classified as an X-Threat just for that and destroyed with nanomachines, or possibly quarantined..

Custom near future setting with campaign centered around a series of popular VR games. Fantasy, sci fi, cyberpunk, post apoc and more, depending on which you want to play. Thing is, people have started to manifest their characters powers in the real world, realized how to build the tech, etc.

People might even think the Gate is just another manifestation of the game. And then the war breaks out and both sides are probably matched, mythic beings vs magitech cannibal cyborgs or whatever grab bag of powers are developed by playing multiple genres.

In all seriousness though an almost endless flood of Monster Hunter style beasties come charging through, meanwhile our world begins to get oddly prosperous....then too prosperous as our own wildlife start becoming Monster Hunter beasties and our people start mutating and gaining magic.

Hey, they actually have a protocol for this. They try to do things secretly and respectfully, and when that doesn't work and shit hits the fan, send a ragtag band of misfits with extreme martial skill in. Aided by assorted magic and stolen ultra-tech, of course.

Generally stuff goes a lot like GATE, except the military presence is much less visible than the JSDF. It's like, 12 dudes. Humanitarian presence is still the same, though.

What you forget is that once that gate is opened the first thing that will come out of it is a magical roman army hell bent on slaughtering everything bigger than mouse in the name of conquest. And you realize how fucked any and all factions in the Mojave will be when they have to contend with this massive and well equipped force.

Do you think the NCR could defend the Mojave from that? They're already dealing with, and losing to, a completely different Roman inspired army, even if it really is ragtag horde of slave soldiers armed with machetes.

To put this in terms of the struggle for the Mojave before the Courier interferes with it, this would be like taking an entirely new and separate Ceaser's legion, in addition to the one they're already fighting. Imagine that those battle hardened soldiers are now heavily disciplined and trained for formation fighting and other battlefield tactics instead of machete wielding skirmishers, but no less bloodthirsty or eager to rape and pillage en mass. Now imagine they are backed on the battlefield by actual wizards, horrific trained battle beasts, and fucking wyvern close air support.

Not even House could deal with that shit.

Our setting is our GM's homebrew. It's a futuristic space opera with a dash of xenoscience and xeno pseudomagic sprinkled in. We've already accidentally destroyed three planets, and another planet we fucked up on purpose. So, I give the guys beyond the gate about 6 seconds before they get their shit wrecked and we start mounting a counter invasion. It would actually be pretty neat if they did invade us, since one of our teammembers tried to stick his xeno loving dick in some ancient artifact and unleashes some horror upon the universe that's fucking up everything so bad our best plan is to just grab our shit and fuck off to another universe altogether.

Either way the empire would Dominate that planet... Though the fact that they would be limited to mostly ground force gives the potential of a third faction locking them out while fending off attacks by the native.

Not really sure if the Fantasy-Punk aesthetic of the Witcher counts, but it would be interesting.

The Northern Kingdoms are fucked, of course. They just got invaded by basically another Nilfgaard.

Then it would be a battle between the Fantasy Roman's ancient world legion tactics vs. the fast-moving caravans and massed, heavy cavalry of the Nilfgaardian Blitzkrieg.

Of course, the Gate world have just fucked themselves, because now the White Frost will consume their world as well. To say nothing of what will happen when the Wild Hunt detects their intrusion.
