DEEPSPACE VOIDTRUCKERS is a micro-RPG about BIG MOTHER TRUCKERS making dangerous long-haul deliveries across THE VOID. The game swings between small, pastoral moments and big, over-the-top 80s action movie spectacle. You'll take the wheel of your custom RIG as you haul freight across THE STARWAY.

THE GAME FEATURES:

  • Quick & Easy Gameplay
    Pick your Handle, Vibe, Vice, and Dashboard Decoration and you're ready to roll (metaphorically speaking). With just two dice to track – your RIG DICE and FIGHT DICE – it's perfect for players of any experience level. Great for campaigns or pick-up games.
  • 2 Gameplay Modes
    Work together as a CONVOY, pooling resources to get the job done, or go it alone as LONE WOLVES, racing against other players in PVP action.
  • 10 Archetypes
    Build your perfect space trucker with special abilities to help you deliver the goods... or die trying. Are you the BAR CRAWLER, an arm-wrestling legend? The LONG HAULER, who lives for the drive? Or the BANDIT, a slippery smuggler who always has an escape plan?
  • 4 Rig Classes
    Your Space Semi is represented by dice of different sizes for easy record keeping. The ship system is simple enough to port into other games.
  • Fully Interactive PDF
    Comes with a form-fillable character sheet and hex map. Call Dispatch to get intel on friendlies and hostiles.
  • PIRATES, SENTRIES & ANOMALIES
    Every new sector brings fresh dangers, threats... or maybe an opportunity if you're slick enough.
  • ARM WRESTLING
    Settle your disputes the STARWAY way – by "THROWING BONES". This custom mini-system lets you gamble your own vitality to prove you're the SLAM CHAMPION. Bet pink slips, information, or even your life!
  • TOUCHSTONES
    Inspired by FTL, OVER THE TOP, ELECTRIC BASTIONLAND, COWBOY BEBOP, STAR WARS, and CITIZEN SLEEPER.

Hello! I just picked this up with the bundle and I love the vibes, layout, and clean mechanics. I do have two questions: Is the ship you play with one you choose, or does one work their way up? Also, why is the starting/max FP? I’ve scoured the rulebook, and I know there is a max from the SOS section on refilling, but I can’t make more than assumptions on what that would be. If you can pick your ship and the max FP is based on that as well, that feels like there is very little reason to pick a smaller ship. The game looks wonderful, and I can’t wait to run it!

Hi, great questions!

You can pick any size ship you would like, they each have their own ability that can help determine what your character is like - as the rig is an extension of the character... 

You can do full FP or you can roll your rig die at character creation and see how much you start with.

The way this balances out is that the smaller the ship, the higher the chance you roll a one - which just lets you jump without spending FP. The bigger the ship, the more "negative" encounters you can potentially roll on the NAV table.  And if playing Co-op there are more incentives to have Rigs of different sizes in your convoy.

Thank you so much for giving it a look over, its one of my favorite games i've made!

My pleasure! 

Can this be played solo?

It doesn't have a solo procedure, but if you were feeling particularly creative you could!

Hey Jack! Will this be getting the V3.1 in B&W for home printing?

Yes, it's on my list. As well as a one sheet with pitstops.

updated the B&W version!
