Cepheus Deluxe Enhanced Edition
Starships riding fire across the sky. Heroes and villains exchanging laser fire. Desperate spacers struggling against an alien monstrosity. Vast planetary vistas¸ flying cities¸ moonscapes¸ mad robots¸ and first encounters. In short: high-action science-fiction adventure that stimulates your sense of wonder. Cepheus Deluxe: Enhanced Edition puts you in the shoes of an adventurer visiting distant stars and encountering the unknown. Whether you are a seasoned player looking for a rules-light game¸ or a new gamer wanting to experience what science-fiction role-playing games are all about¸ Cepheus Deluxe: Enhanced Edition opens your way forward.
Cepheus Deluxe is a set of rules for playing classic science fiction games. It includes rules on creating characters¸ resolving actions¸ fighting other creatures¸ and engaging in space battles¸ generating worlds¸ handling the risks of interstellar speculative trading¸ exploring new worlds¸ and many other activities. While designed for fast¸ action-packed play rather than an accurate simulation of reality¸ Cepheus Deluxe: Enhanced Edition encompasses a wide variety of rules and materials for building a science-fiction universe and playing in it.
Cepheus Deluxe: Enhanced Edition draws its inspiration from old-school science-fiction roleplaying games. It shares many similarities with these games. Material from older rules sets and those created with Cepheus Deluxe: Enhanced Edition¸ the old Cepheus Light¸ the Cepheus Engine Core¸ and old-school sci-fi roleplaying games¸ are easily compatible with only a moderate amount of adjustment.
The future awaits!
