WINNER OF A 2019 JUDGES CHOICE BAMFSIE AWARD!

Tiny Supers is here!

Tiny Supers is the newest iteration of the minimalist roleplaying system TinyD6!

Powered by the TinyD6 engine, with streamlined mechanics that utilize only one to three single six-sided dice on every action, characters that can be written on a 3x5 notecard, and easy to understand and teach rules, Tiny Supers is great for all groups, ages, and experience levels who want to enjoy fast and accessible superheroics! Characters are created quickly, with a simple power selection system designed to be fast, inuitive, and easy to understand. 

A wide range of innovations on the TinyD6 ruleset allow you to craft nearly any superhero you can imagine. Versatile Power Traits model comic book style powers, utilizing a 3-tier format to show the increasing potency of superpowers. Subtle changes to the combat system allow for quick, cinematic comic book action, while still remaining easy to resolve and understand! 

Featuring the near-future comic-inspired GallantVerse (Gallant Knight Games’ first default TinyD6 setting!), as well as standalone micro-verses, Tiny Supers provides you with a toolbox approach and framework to create exciting and easy to run superhero stories at your table!

So grab some dice, some pencils, some friends, and get ready for some minimalist, straight-forward, super-heroic roleplaying!

If I were to take this to my local printshop for a coil bind print, what size should I tell them to print? They only have access to the International Paper Sizes where I'm at nowadays, so "digest" or "letter" will probably confuse them.

Why not offer an even less expensive B&W print version?

Power: Invulnerability
I see this power listed in some of the sample character descriptions (Gallant, Bulwark), but I cannot seem to find this power anywhere in the book - am I missing something?
Thank you.

Capstone appears to not follow the summoning rule. The rule states that you can give one of your powers to your minions but you lose access to that power. Capstone has 3 kinds of minions each with their own power, one of which he doesn't have. If he purchased multiples of each of those powers then he spent 3 more points on character creation than the other players. Unless I misunderstood how summoning works?

Kudos to the crew at Drive Thru. There was a delivery error by the USPS and they fixed it for me. Kudos to the writer of "Tiny Dungeon." It is a useful rules-lite sandbox. Kudos to Alan Barr for writing up the super powers to fit the system. We needed much more, but what's there is clever. The "Gallantverse" and "microverse" settings are completely useless, however. They were apparently written by middle school kids on their cell phones. The worst part is basically none of the characters invented for the "verse" sections (about 7/8ths of the book) are statted out. The fantasy races of "Tiny Dungeon" are swapped out for "archetypes" in this book which are basically useless. (IMHO origins would've been better.) Don't tell me you're supplying information for using the game and you haven't even provided stats for the characters. The product is very nicely produced, but a person could do just as well to download "Tiny Dungeons" for free...See more

Where is the "for the gamemasters" section of the book? Page 21 mentions referencing this section but does that mean the Gallantverse and micro settings sections?

Hey Chris!

You're likely looking for the file named "Threat Matrix" as well as the errata. (Some pages were omitted and will be rolled in in future printings.)

The statblocks of the "learner PCs" presented in the book seem to be about 2-3 traits more advanced than default starting characters? Or did I misunderstand character creation? P.20 mentions the selection of three Powers from the list, and P.29 outlines the Tiers as costing a Trait choice, yet Gallant on P. 59 seems to have a total of six selections (two more than the Paragon's regular four).

I think they put the full stat block in three by mistake and not the starting character one.

Hey folks - They are learner PCs, designed to show the game and the potential of it (as well as serve as NPCs). Because the stat-block is doing double duty, these PCs are more "advanced" than the standard character creation (hence the extra traits.)

In to use a hopefully more accessible analogy, they might be "Level 3" starting characters, rather than "Level 1". A file of standard 3-trait pregenerated characters will be coming down the pipeline this year.

Is there a reddit, discord or forums that I can go to where there is some discussion on the game? I have not been able to locate anything official. There are some things that are unclear and would like to bounce around some power ideas with others who have more experience with the game.

Hi Tavis! There are permanent links floating around but it we've had spam problems in the past, and we've used time-expiring links to help manage that.

Here's a link that will last until we turn it off!

Will there be any expansions any time soon for more powers? The powers list in the core book is pretty limited.

Yup! Patrons on our GKG Patreon have already seen it. It has new archetypes, new powers, base rules, and more!

Just keep in mind powers are designed to be rethemed to fit your needs!

Re-skinning is easy. I mean actual powers that aren’t in there, like weather control, cosmic flight, or higher super speeds more akin to the Flash as opposed to Quicksilver.

If we sign up for your Patreon do we get access to a backlog of files or only whats released that month? I too would purchase another book that served as an expansion to this with more powers and higher power levels.

Hey Chris! Some files will be accessible through old posts, though anything sent through DTRPG will not be accessible. Future products are coming that will have additional powers as we see fit, though not higher power levels.

We felt the full version was more exciting and useful, as it contains setting material, NPCs, and enemies to be used, rather than just a player focused set of rules.

Am I misunderstanding the Evade combat action, because it seems like it can be easily abused? My understanding from reading the pdf is that each turn a player of NPC can repeatedly sacrifice a single one of their two actions and then every single time someone scores a successful hit against them (not a high chance to begin with) they have a 33% chance to simply negate that hit.

Is that right?

Original electronic
Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
