'45 - Psychobilly Retropocalypse
 |
A post-apocalyptic sci-fi RPG based on sci-fi B-movies of the 1930's through 1950's. It is set in a tongue-in-cheek alternate future where WWII was fought by atomic bombs on all sides¸ creating an America that is largely a radioactive wasteland populated by mutant greasers¸ beautiful dames¸ giant ants¸ and the like. It uses a simple dice pool system called ""Xpress engine"". Resolution is by rolling a number of d6s equal to attribute¸ with a target number based on comparing skill level to a universal chart. Character creation includes ten Attributes in pairs ranging from 1-5¸ along with skills and a simple system of merits and flaws. - A description from https://darkshire.net/jhkim/rpg/encyclopedia/ with kind permission of John H.
