Micro Sci-Fi RPG: Basic Rules

ADD TO WISHLIST >

The Micro Sci-Fi RPG system is an ultra-simple dark sci-fi roleplaying game that is designed specifically for solo play. Take on the role of a lone space traveler, scouting away missions, killing aliens, gathering credits, and becoming an interplanetary hero! These basic rules are the definitive rules for the system and are all you need to play any adventure for the system. They are considered the new 1.75 edition rules, but remain completely compatible with all the other game content in the system.

This book includes:
  • Rules for Sci-fi Characters
  • Rules for Space Travel
  • Rules for Ship Combat
  • Rules for Multi-Planet Exploration
  • Rules for Planet Colonization
  • Rules for inserting any other Micro Chapbook RPG genre book (current and upcoming)
  • And more!

Where in the book does this explain the "Technology" (aka magic) for the Technicians I see in the Quickstart? I don't have the Basic fantasy book to reference, and I love the concept of having tech mimic magic.

Page 12 says "Proficiency will be explained in section 5.0". Should this read "...section 4.0"? I don't see anything in section 5 about proficiency.

Yes, this it a typo. I thought this file had been updated to the fixed one months ago, but I guess I'll have to check it again.

I bought this one from Amazon, as well as Madame Mimble.

Are you going to make a campaign for this one, like the Bone Lord Chronicles and Van Drac?

Hi Noah,

I am a HUGE fan of Micro Sci-Fi RPG and also bought Madame Mimble's Star Codex. It gets played a lot due to the fact, that I can easily play Micro Sci-Fi RPG solo. It got my imagination rolling like never before.

As a result I have personally expanded upon your rules by writing 280 pages of additional content and also concepts. Buying miniature spaceships and soldiers, creating my own deck of cards instead of rolling on tables for items, planets, maps or enemies, added new locations to the settlement, introduced factions, created a custom characters sheet and laminated it and sooo much more.

The last few years have been tough on all of us. Even more so in my personal life. Your book gave me back something I had lost quite some time ago: happiness, enthusiasm, enjoyment and creativity!

Thank you so much!

I can see that you are probably busy expanding on the Gay Realms franchise. I am still keeping my hopes up for an expansion of these...See more

Thank you so much for your enthusiasm for the game and the system! I love all of your ideas! I have definitely spread out the company over a number of genres and games, which makes dedicating time to all of them difficult. I'd love to create one game world where all genres could be easily represented. Right now, the Neonverse is actually the most popular game system/world by far.

Greetings to you Noah.
I desire to play a sci fi heroine dressed in only Sci fi Bikini Armour or an armored catsuit......what stats would i need to play such a character?
And what would the bonuses be from wearing such an outfit?
Could i also "upgrade" my characters Bikini or catsuit armor?

I'd say use the stats for the "Fur Tunic" on page 31 from Death in Dino Valley. The current Gay Realms line will eventually have a "Barbarian Planet" source book as well, but it isn't in the release pipeline for awhile.

Hi,
I have just bought the print version of the books and it looks great so far. Is there any way to get copies of the game sheets from the back of the book please? I don't want to ruin the book trying to scan them directly.
Thanks :)

Is this an all in one game or should I also buy adventures e.g. "Curse of the Flying Dutchman" to play?

This game is all in one. It has a ton of gameplay right out of the gate. I really try to make as many books as possible stand on their own. Even Flying Dutchman has a quick version of the rules included.

Page 36, Mission Location days roll D3. Earlier it talked how to do that, divide by 2 and round up. If that's the case, one will never get 4, or did I miss something?

Probably a typo. Should be D4 if there are 4 options to roll.

Question - What am I getting in this book that I did not get in the deluxe microchapbook sci fi rpg that I already purchased? I do see the page count is signficantly higher in this book but I'm wondering what that expanded page count went towards given that the product description seems to indicate they are fully compatible with each other.

Thanks

This is part of the 1.75 edition of the game. While compatible with the older edition stuff, there are many updates that make the rules different and more streamlined based on player feedback. Most of all, there is a lot more world building content here. As listed in the description, the main part of the 160 pages is spent on Space Travel, Ship Combat (you get to buy a ship), exploring multiple planets, the ability to create new colonies on planets, etc.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
