Space Scoundrels RPG

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Let’s stop kidding ourselves: being the hero is overrated. Oh, sure, bring together a band of intergalactic underdogs in the name of the greater good and everybody’s climbing all over themselves to name a moon after you. But where’s the fun—and more importantly, the reward—in that? It’s time that the cocky, silver-tongued, sharp-witted rogue seized the center stage of the space opera. It’s time Space Scoundrels got an adventure of their own.Blaster in holster, swagger in step, and plenty of bounty hunters in the rearview, it’s time to step aboard your stolen hunk of junk and take off into a sci-fi RPG where the name of the game is taking what’s yours (as well as what’s not) and making sure anyone left in your wake remembers your name. In this realm, there’s no place for complex skill trees, heady math and hokey religious powers—as a Space Scoundrel, you have no choice but to risk it all on quick choices, smooth moves, and whatever luck you can muster.

The game is played using a unique, polyhedral progression system - your untrained skills are tested with a d4 but advance (as trained) up to d20 and beyond. Several additional (or optional) abilities add to rolls to help make those moments more memorable! Dice checks are made against static entities (e.g., a control panel) or active entities (e.g., NPCs, other players, as compared rolls).

Space Scoundrels RPG, B&W interior, 36 digest pages.

A preview (one that shows substantive content, not a cover image, table of contents, and "how to play an RPG" page) would probably help you sell more of this game. Hint, hint.

Previews have been added - sometimes when a product is edited, it loses the checkbox for the previews. I've made sure the checkboxes have been checked!

For a unique system it sounds a lot like Savage Worlds.

Only the basic dice progression is somewhat similar. There's a greater range of dice to use, no attributes, no stacking of maximum rolls with additional rolls, among other things. Space Scoundrels is far less complex and again, not to be take too seriously.

I've updated the product description with the system used, but I'll add it here too: "The game is played using a unique, polyhedral progression system - your untrained skills are tested with a d4 but advance (as trained) up to d20 and beyond. Several additional (or optional) abilities add to rolls to help make those moments more memorable! Dice checks are made against static entities (e.g., a control panel) or active entities (e.g., NPCs, other players, as compared rolls)."

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.
