RPJ Sci-Fi
RPJ Sci-Fi:
Publisher: Many Words Press
RPJ Sci-Fi is a space-opera roleplaying game, set in the twilight years of a galaxy-spanning empire which traces its heritage back to the conquests of Alexander the Great, thousands of years before. Led by the Autokrator, suffering under the thumb of the vast bureaucracies, at the mercy of border raids and outright invasions from the Empire's foes, humanity struggles even to survive.
At the heart of the Empire's endurance are the Navarchoi and their jump ships: voidships titanic enough to mount jump engines and the immense reactors and capacitor banks which drive them, and to carry smaller voidships between the stars. Only jump ships are large enough to carry jump engines of their own. Only the Empire, even in its age of decline, is wealthy enough to support privately-owned merchant jump ships.
Navarchoi and their inner circles travel the galaxy, the lifeblood of trade, the Empire's vanguard at home and abroad. In RPJ Sci-Fi, you tell the story of their adventures.
Inside the RPJ Sci-Fi rulebook, you'll find...

The NAGA System - public beta
The NAGA System - public beta:
Publisher: StreamMonkRPGs
NAGA tends to encourage a world-spanning, exploration-and-discovery, service-oriented type of play rather than the dungeon-crawl, hack-n-slash, murder-hobo mindset.
NAGA also encourages an appreciation of the fact that actions have consequences; that conversation, persuasion, and strategy are not only permitted, but promoted, and highly advisable; that injury and duress take time to heal and have negative effects; that combat is best viewed as a last resort: a thing to be assiduously avoided … but not ‘at all costs’.
The core of the game comes in at 94 pages broken down approximately as follows:
Since long before recorded history, the Earth has been the stage for sometimes obvious and dramatic and sometimes hidden and unmarked struggles between forces willfully opposing the Design of Life and those forces willingly supporting it. We have always existed on this razor edge.
When worlds proceed too far in the direction of Corruption they may perish under the apocalyptic weight of their own hubris. Occasionally it happens that there are a certain number of Ennobled and Ennobling beings on such Corrupt worlds sufficient in themselves to outweigh the entirety of the hubris of the rest of the population. These beings are now known as Benefactors (Onjin, 恩人). For the benefit of such beings even Dark worlds may be given respite. So it was, some say, with our own.
Many centuries ago, The Forerunners … our forerunners … tipped those scales radically in an apocalyptic direction.
As all life teetered on the edge of extinction, a many-colored Rupture appeared in the sky. Some say the fabric of space and time was rent asunder. Through this Rupture flowed a Myst that, over the course of a single day and night, remade the world.
After the Rupture some sensitive individuals claimed to see ethereal island realms in the deep places of the world and substantial island realms hovering in the high places. These various realms are said to be the residences of the Naga and their Lords (Dark and Light, respectively). The Fog and Myst which occasionally flow from these realms seem to be the proximate cause for many a strange event (some dreadful, others wonderful) ... not to mention the many and various Powers and Talents which have arisen among the people.
It is now (so we think) many centuries since the Rupture and yet, every so often, the Fog will rise from the Pit-Realms and the Myst will fall again from the Sky-Realms – each re-adjusting the landscape and affecting people caught outside unprotected and unaware.
I hope you enjoy the system and setting as much as I enjoyed creating them.

The NAGA System
When, after multiple requests, I could not come up with any recommendations for an inexpensive role-playing game that promoted altruistic values, did not glorify combat, was not oriented around the acquisition of wealth and status, and for which the rules were not overly simplistic, I was prompted to dust off a game I had designed in the 80s so that I might rework it to fulfill that need. The result of that reworking is the NAGA System – a game very much in need of playtesting and definitely a work in progress.NAGA tends to encourage a world-spanning, exploration-and-discovery, service-oriented type of play rather than the dungeon-crawl, hack-n-slash, murder-hobo mindset.
NAGA also encourages an appreciation of the fact that actions have consequences; that conversation, persuasion, and strategy are not only permitted, but promoted, and highly advisable; that injury and duress take time to heal and have negative effects; that combat is best viewed as a last resort: a thing to be assiduously avoided … but not ‘at all costs’.
The core of the game comes in at 94 pages broken down approximately as follows:
- Front and Back cover (2 pgs)
- Glossary (13pgs)
- Trait List (7 pgs)
- Equipment and Encumbrance (5 pgs)
- Setting Material (14 pages)
- Rules (42 pgs)
- other (11 pgs)
The Setting
NAGA is designed for play in a tense, dark, Future-Imperfec setting. This term, Future-Imperfect, refers to a verb tense that combines past, present, and future with the idea of action being repeated or continued over time. When used to describe the game setting, this refers to the fact that the post-Rupture world of NAGA is one in which past, present, and future have somehow become jumbled together and actions taken repeatedly may allow for special functions.Since long before recorded history, the Earth has been the stage for sometimes obvious and dramatic and sometimes hidden and unmarked struggles between forces willfully opposing the Design of Life and those forces willingly supporting it. We have always existed on this razor edge.

Themes
NAGA explores themes of community and isolation, harmony and disharmony, integrity and corruption, tradition and progress, nature and mechanization, creation and destruction, desolation and consolation, hope and despair, creative imagination and sterile rationalization, freedom and bondage, and human being and becoming.I hope you enjoy the system and setting as much as I enjoyed creating them.
Jack's Trick
Jack's Trick:
Publisher: Growling Door Games, Inc.
Once there was a very wicked man called Jack, who tricked the Devil into refusing to take his soul. He wanders the world now, ever searching for a way into Heaven or Hell, ever unable to rest. He carries with him a gourd lit by an ember from Hell itself. A few times in a year, when chains are loosed and doors unlocked, he has a chance to end his curse, to pass along his lantern, and name a new Jack. That might be you, if you aren’t quick and clever.
Jack's Trick is a spooky storytelling game for 4 players, designed to be played in one session. It uses a standard deck of playing cards, and is based on the rules for Euchre. Jack's Trick is collaborative and competetive - the players determine the setting and the characters, but in the end, someone is taking on Jack's curse. Good luck!
Price: $5.00

RPJ Core is a generic tabletop roleplaying engine. Rather than provide rules for every circumstance, it pushes some implementation details down to modules, complete games which build on top of it.
This is a prerelease product. Major rules changes are unlikely, but still possible.
Key Features
- Level-less, skill-based character system
RPJ characters are the sum of their skills: given proper investment, any character can be good at anything. At the same time, a lightweight character class system helps to guide and focus character builds. - Narrative focus
RPJ's core mechanics are designed to put the emphasis on storytelling, by giving gamemasters tools to represent common narrative situations, and by giving players tools to fix situations when the dice go against their character concepts. - Streamlined combat and damage
Combat occurs in a gridless framework based on large regions, using a simple adjacency system to determine who is close to whom. Damage is resolved using a saving throw system: when receiving damage, characters roll to shrug it off. - Modern ranged combat rulesAn optional system for cover, suppressive fire, and more fills in the gaps for combat using firearms and other modern and futuristic weapons.
- Magic, conditions, and more
RPJ is designed for modularity. Not only does it leave room for modules to implement their own systems, it provides some example optional mechanics suitable for cribbing. Extensibility is a central design goal. - Permissive licensingRPJ's core mechanics are provided under the Creative Commons Attribution-Sharealike-Noncommercial license, so that they remain freely available to all. Its optional mechanics, however, are provided under the Creative Commons Attribution license, so that they can be readily copied, remixed, and included in commercial products.
Tyrnador JumpStart
Tyrnador JumpStart:
Publisher: GRAmel
Imagine a land where men, dwarves and elves vie for supremacy, trying at the same time to survive the threat of the goblinoids and the dangers of the wilds. This place is the Kingdom of Ventar, founded centuries ago by a human prince looking to fulfill the Fate of his people, written in an ancient Prophecy.
And then, suddenly, the forgotten Prophecy came true: from the Sleepless Sea the fleet of the Necromancer came, to subdue the living and drag them into darkness. Only by fighting together did the Free People manage to repel the Necromancer, who today lurks, defeated but not destroyed, beyond the Gates of Night, an immense fortress in the far north.
Ventar lies destroyed and devastated: cities and villages are reduced to ruins filled with monsters, pleasant fields have become dark woods populated by bandits and ogres, and, in the deep forests, powerful Faerie coming from the mysterious Faerann try to lure and enslave mortals at their whim.
This is Tyrnador: Fate of Ventar, a land where mighty warriors, cunning rogues, wise priests and powerful mages dare to enter the ruins and explore the Wyldlands to find enough power to rebuild their land. So, grab your sword, learn your spells, and be sure your backpack is full of rations and torches. Are you ready to discover what the real Fate of Ventar will be?

Welcome to Dungeon Grind, where simply adventuring in the dungeon isn't enough for success: you've got to recruit allies, do odd jobs for cash, talk up your accomplishments in the tavern, and manage limited time and stamina while doing it. Will you reach fame and glory before your rivals, or will you be worn down by the daily grind of being an anonymous adventurer?
Dungeon Grind is a tabletop game that's inspired by classic fantasy roleplaying but meant to be played in a single session. The game can be played solo or in competition with friends.
***This is an early beta version of the game.*** That's why it's only a couple bucks. Nevertheless, the game is completely playable, and on top of that, buying it now means that any updates—even the final version when it releases—will be added on for no extra charge!
I welcome any feedback that you would like taken into consideration for future revisions. Also, if you're a freelancer who could help with production, feel free to give me a holler on Twitter: @JacobSKellogg

Wraith Recon Quickstart
Wraith Recon Quickstart:
Publisher: FeralGamersInc
Welcome to Wraith Recon
Originally a setting book written for the Dungeons and Dragons 4th Edition GLS in 2008, the new Wraith Recon is being released as a standalone roleplaying game, complete with the World of Nuera campaign setting, all updated and rewritten with the FeralEngine system in mind. The plots of the previous setting have all been advanced, becoming either resolved or even more complex than before, and new threats lurk in every shadow.
The game setting is also being released as a standalone campaign guide for use with the Savage Worlds rule set. A popular and flexible system, Savage Worlds brings Nuera to life with its ease of play, depth of scope, and fast-paced action.
Either option, the full game with the FeralEngine rules or the Savage Worlds campaign setting guide, is a perfect way to experience all the stealth, combat, and fantasy drama of Wraith Recon!

Solar Blades & Cosmic Spells (Variant Cover)
Solar Blades & Cosmic Spells (Variant Cover):
Publisher: Gallant Knight Games
Solar Blades & Cosmic Spells
The universe is in collapse, as planets and systems struggle for freedom under the rule of sinister despots. Against the malevolent sorcery of the Overlords stand the few remaining bearers of the legendary Solar Blades.
What will you do when the forces of the Void close in?
Solar Blades & Cosmic Spells is a rules light, Star & Sorcery Role Playing Game with an Old School spirit. This is a complete Role Playing Game, inspired by the Old School Renaissance, the Pulp Literature and the many Science Fantasy stories brought to us by movies, comics and games. Based on the Sharp Swords & Sinister Spells RPG, this game system provides players and Overlords (that's how we call the GM in this game) a set of flexible and streamlined rules, as well as an array of tools to make gameplay fast and fun, allowing them to have exciting adventures with solar blades and cosmic spells!
What is in the book?
Although the book has more than 450 pages, it’s filled with hundreds and hundreds of illustrations, tables to generate all sorts of game elementos (from items, NPCs, monsters to an entire galaxy). The rules themselves occupy less than 150 pages (including examples and lots of other helpful things). The game also comes with a ready to play adventure, full os possible endings and with great hooks for future game play!
So grab a few dice, call your friends and get ready for a life of adventure with Solar Blades & Cosmic Spells!
PLEASE NOTE: This cover is the limited edition cover funded by the IndieGoGO backers, who generously agreed to let us sell their unique reward. However, the price is higher than the standard edition, to reflect the nature of the reward and ensure our backers were rewarded for their kindness.
When your purchase this product, you will receive a purchase confirmation from DriveThruRPG. That email will contain a link to a free download of the standard edition PDF of Solar Blades & Cosmic Spells. There is no PDF with the variant cover. The contents of both products are identical, and the only variation is the cover.

James & Lloyd read indie rpg blurbs so you don't have to: New Indie RPGs January 2019
If you were swamped by the wave of new indie rpgs in January then never fear: James & Lloyd read indie rpg blurbs so you don't have to!
James & Lloyd read indie rpg blurbs so you don't have to: New Indie RPGs January 2019:
More than 50 new indie tabletop roleplaying games are released every month. I want to keep up with one of the most exciting areas in tabletop gaming, but I don't know which of these games I should give a look (let alone buy or even play!). So I asked two friends for help. James Mullen and Lloyd Gyan are two of the UK's most dedicated indie roleplayers and, every month, they go through every new indie rpg and tell me (and now the world) what's caught their eye from the new games listed in the Indie RPG Pipeline ( theindierpgpipeline.blogspot.com )
