I like this tiny booklet more than I expected to. It comes in two formats. The main one is 8 tiny pages printed on one sheet of paper in such a way that you can fold and cut it into a little pocket-sized booklet. Or you can just use it in your PDF reader as a regular document.

What is it? A simple series of interconnected tables for generating a Cepheus Engine or Traveller story hook by rolling 1D6 on each table. It's a neat idea, and the table entries cover a wide enough variety of possibilities that you can spark your creativity just by sitting down with a die and generating an adventure outline in a few minutes.

This a great way to get things going. If you are referee or solo gamer, this will get things going in a fun way. Now all we need is a Azhanti High Lightning encounter generator to go with it.

This is a nice little 8 page mini-book of idea charts for themes and scenarios for games using keywords, rolled off of a d6 chart and subcharts. Not a lot of detail, but the ideas are linked in ways that other random scenario generators... who what where why do not cover.

I have seen other space opera generators all over the net that do this with a d20, but none with this sort of mind map technique. so I like it, even for that way of thinking about a scenario.

I liked it more once I went to the page on internet in the included readme that shows how to cut on ashed lines, and fold the book. Took me all of a minute to get it together, and already using these suggested plots. A nice little idea generator, at a decent price for what you get.

It also allows for super layered plots, if you want to go that way.

It also clued me in to these little 8 page books, which I could use for other purposes.

In the readme doc, the last line should read: Sub Plot: Moved 42 (3) The Next Town 22 (3)- Invention, 36(5)- One million credits

As a solo gamer, Game Planner is an excellent resource for my Travelling needs. The charts can be used straight up in a pinch for a quick answer or chained together for more detailed info and plot twists.
