Reign of the Star Kings [£5.00]

Reign of the Star Kings [£5.00]:

The story of mankind's early, faltering steps into space have faded into legend.  

Humans have now touched every corner of the galaxy.   We constructed a network of politics and trade and culture that spanned thousands of light-years and trillions of individual lives.

Most of the galaxy now falls under the control of one of a handful of competing Empires, each with its own laws and traditions.  Within each Empire, powerful family Houses control planets, or systems, or whole sectors of the galaxy.  The leaders of these Houses are answerable only to their Emperor, who reigns supreme from the safety of the Homeworld.

Empires ebb and flow.  They rise, flourish, do battle and compete with each other, and finally fall…but always another Empire will rise to take their place.

A Solo RPG

Reign of the Star Kings is a solo roleplaying game where you will chart the lives of Galactic Emperors and the history of the worlds they rule. 

Using only two, six-sided dice, you will build the family tree of a fictional royal family.  Record the challenges they faced and the decisions they made, and discover how those decisions impacted future generations.

Galaxy-spanning geneology

Based on the critically acclaimed solo RPG Lineage, Reign of the Star Kings moves the action from a medieval setting to the distant future, as well as expanding possibilities with three times as many randomised events.   Chart your Empire through it's rise, golden age and eventual fall.

In a galaxy far, far away...

Reign of the Star Kings is inspired by classic space operas such as Dune, Foundation, even Flash Gordon.  These are worlds of fantasy where medieval systems of leadership and morality are combined with space travel and strange alien worlds.  It's also indpired by GermanNr4, whose Lineage hack first added the idea of following an Empire through different eras.
