I think this game is ambitious, and that's to be lauded, but right now, it feels like it is in an identity crisis between Korg, Ironsworn, and Traveller.
I set up a series of missions, with the recommended two starting fuel, bought a navigator and one fuel... and got stranded before anything happened. If the intent was to force fuel, it feels like we should have gotten 5 instead of the standard 2 and 3000 credits. Combat seems a bit of a page space thing, and upgrades might be too complicated. The "travel" move also, I assume, should allow you to travel 2 spaces on a strong hit, instead of (E), otherwise strong hits could be worse?
That being said, I think there is a space for this sort of game, and an update to streamline could make it very fun.
Hey thanks for all the feedback! You make some excellent points. It was written in about a 7 hour single day push, haha, so bound to have numerous faults. But I agree, some tidying up, expanding, clarifying etc, It could be fun little pamphlet game. Cheers
excellent question! Yes, 2 Fuel. Also, i see I didnt mention where you start. I'd say begin at a random place with a Market. I plan to flesh this one out a little bit soon. Thanks for checking it out!

Looks like a lot of fun! Quick question - do you start the game with some fuel?

Neat! This looks fun! Always appreciated the Ironsworn D6 vs 2D10 system and this is implemented in a very cool way here.
Hey thanks so much for checking it out! I too find the IS dice very cool, and have wanted a way to use them! Hope you enjoy the game
