Thirteen Parsecs: Beyond the Solar Frontier
Publisher: Elf Lair Games
by James [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 10/21/2024 13:35:32

Basically it is an excellent OSR Scifi Toolkit. The game mechanics seem to resemble OD&D while the descending AC (called a Defense Value) score seems to track AD&D based 10 instead of 9 like in BX/BECMI. The character's Hit Dice (called Vitality) seems to track AD&D. But it seems it is designed so you could port in almost any OSR based on 2e AD&D or earlier.
One can use it to generate any style of play across different Scifi Gentres. Like Hard Scifi vs Space Fantasy vs Space Opera vs Star Trek or Star Wars.

I love it. Can't wait for it to come out in stores or for hardcopies...

THANK you for the great review, and stay tuned! I am told that the books shipped today! I am out of town next week, but the physical copies for the crowdfunding campaign will begin shipping the first week of November and it should be available for purchase in hordcopy not long after! It'll be in distribution by January or February.

Cities Without Number
Publisher: Sine Nomine Publishing

In a time where Cyberpunk games for OSR are slim pickings (IMHO we could use more) Cities Without Number is a breath of fresh Air. The PDF is well layed out. The Art us superior and the game system is OSR through and through. Threat yourself to the Hard Cover if ye can.

Strange Stars

It is a a pretty good setting. Hard Transhumanist Space Opera with a Barbarella or Star Crash vibe. There is no FTL other than Hyperspace Gates (which I love). There are no gaming rules so you can adapt it to any setting. I own the OSR and Fate versions. I would love to see a version for D&D 5e. That would be awesome.

Gamma World Player's Handbook (GW 6e)
Publisher: Wizards of the Coast
by James S. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 01/13/2007 00:03:40

The Gamma World Player's Handbook has a defect. PDF page 135 clearly has DC Tables covering vital text & PDF page 136 is missing Text.

Other than that is would be the perfect product.
