Book Reviews of Serenity Role Playing Game (Serenity)
Book Review: A good system for an exciting setting.
Summary: 5 Stars
The system is similar to others seen before, a points buy character creation system costing 6points to have a d6 to roll for an ability or skill.Modify your points with Assets or Complications (modifiers to rolls) and you have a well rounded character with a personality, ready to play.
Also included are the ships and crews of Serenity and Aces & Eights, to jump right into the action with your favourites or a new, but fun to play crew.
My favourite bit as a GamesMaster was to create a brand new ship, which acts as a seperate character than just its crew, and crew it with flawed heros, just trying to survive.
To do anything a difficulty number is used and you roll one dice for an ability, eg d6 Strength, and one for a skill, eg d10 Intimidate, if the total of those dice equal or beat the difficulty number then you succeed.
Easy for GamesMasters to run, very fun and easy for RolePlayers to play.
Highly recommended for Serenity/Firefly fans and recommended for people bored with d20/d10 systems.
Good Job Joss!
