The purpose of the Universal Space Combat System is to create an easy-to-learn, easy-to-play futuristic miniatures-based space combat system that can work with Role-Playing-Games (RPGs), as a stand along space skirmish game, as a space campaign game, or for massive fleet combats. It takes into account a giant variety of technological levels, and can be used as a stand-alone skirmish, fleet, or campaign game, or used to replace or augment any already existing space combat systems in other game systems, specifically RPGs. Part of the simplicity of the game is that ships are considered agile or armed enough that ship facings don't have any bearing on the combat, and momentum is assumed nullified by giant gyroscopes, inertial dampening fields, or other technology. Another key aspect of the game is that the ships use dice both to represent their power level and abilities, as well as their damage, rather than tracking it as two different numbers and having to erase and rewrite those numbers as ships take damage and make repairs. At the same time, ships are afforded a wide variety of weapons, defenses, miscellaneous systems, and maneuvers. This game specifically splits up portions of the rules into either a SCIENCE fiction (SCIfi) setting, such as the game Traveller or the show Firefly, or a science FICTION (sciFI) type setting, such as Star Trek, Star Wars, etc - Essentially, space fights that look cool, or space fights that are based more on realism, with the ability for players to mix and match aspects of each as they see fit. It allows for space combat in worlds where ships tow each other by grappling hooks or by tractor beams, where space marines board by teleporting onto the other ship or by laser-cutting open holes in the hull, and where faster-than-light travel happens by a single instantaneous jump, or by traveling days in a warp bubble that allows ships to chase and fight each other while moving.

A table-top role-playing game (TTRPG) combines improvisation, tactical gaming, and dramatic stories into a unique pastime that is gaining a well-deserved mainstream audience. There's never been a better time to pick up role-playing, but how to choose what game? There are so many game genres waiting for you, from high fantasy to science fiction and urban fantasy to high school romance and cosmic horror – plus everything beyond and in between. Many gaming systems pick one of these genres to help you build and enjoy a campaign, but every different system and every genre has something to offer. But Snake Eyes is a role-playing system designed to be flexible and to engage your creativity in building games and characters for any genre! A versatile magic system allows for epic fantasy, a mecha-construction system lets you create your own giant robots or science fiction starships, and a martial arts system gives you all the tools you need for an anime-style campaign! Snake Eyes supports any genre of game, but also different levels of complexity. For a simple game, use the stats only. Comfortable with that? Then add in skills. You can play with or without maps, or even without round-by-round combat at all with our crisis system. Or jump right into the middle of it all with traits and complications, custom attacks and equipment! The Snake Eyes system gives players and Storytellers alike not just the pieces to create campaigns, but guidelines for creating custom traits, complications and more. After all, no game system should limit your imagination.

Doro-on and has been published by CRC Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2022-09-27 with Political Science categories.

This book provides multifaceted components and full practical perspectives of systems engineering and risk management in security and defense operations with a focus on infrastructure and manpower control systems, missile design, space technology, satellites, intercontinental ballistic missiles, and space security. While there are many existing selections of systems engineering and risk management textbooks, there is no existing work that connects systems engineering and risk management concepts to solidify its usability in the entire security and defense actions. With this book Dr. Anna M. Doro-on rectifies the current imbalance. She provides a comprehensive overview of systems engineering and risk management before moving to deeper practical engineering principles integrated with newly developed concepts and examples based on industry and government methodologies. The chapters also cover related points including design principles for defeating and deactivating improvised explosive devices and land mines and security measures against kinds of threats. The book is designed for systems engineers in practice, political risk professionals, managers, policy makers, engineers in other engineering fields, scientists, decision makers in industry and government and to serve as a reference work in systems engineering and risk management courses with focus on security and defense operations.

Dead Stars is a science fiction horror role-playing game powered by the alternate d20 Universal Decay rules system. Pick a race - from the ever-familiar humans to the amorphous gorbrasch or sleazy helizara - strap on some personal armor and pick up a sliver rifle or get a cerebral computer implant and grab your toolkit. Or both. Then get together with your friends to face a universe of dangers, wonders, opportunities, and quite possibly a messy death. This book contains everything you will need to play or run a game in Dead Stars as well as rules for using the Universal Decay system in alternate genres, incorporating everything from swords and sorcery to vehicle energy weapons, personal armor, nanotechnology and starships.
