Drier Deserts, Hotter Suns (Playtest Rules) [Free]

Drier Deserts, Hotter Suns (Playtest Rules) [Free]:

Once, we wandered into the desert in search of new lands, in search of gold, in search of profits, oil, god, water. In this future we do the same, but our desert is a different one. If we find water here, it is in nebulous ice clouds wider than any ocean.

The suns burn hotter out here too. They dump more of their pure radiation into our ships and our bodies.

There is hardly anyone.

Except us, the new pioneers of the new frontier. We decide the law and we enforce it. We are colonists, survivors, hitmen, ranchers, engineers and mechanics. Some call us cowboys, some have never even laid eyes on a cow. Everything and everyone is a little crazy here.

This is the first public version of Drier Deserts, Hotter Suns. I’ve spent nearly 8 years fiddling with rules, designing and writing to get to this point. If you bring this game to your table, you’ll be among the first to do so and I am so thankful. I hope you have fun flying, running, and gunning in the lawless frontiers of the future.
