Star Thugs: The Roleplaying Game

by Mark Argyle

Star Thugs is a unique science fiction game universe with a streamlined and highly strategic combat system. It was designed so that each player can command an entire starship and crew without bogging the game down and emphasizes tactical decision making over dice rolls. Unique 'Maneuvers' allow players to give their crew unique capabilities and the special 'Mook' rules keep NPC enemies simple and quick. The game includes battle-tested rules for conducting combat through E-mail that doesn't require ten thousand messages, doesn't bog down when one player in the battle stops posting, and doesn't require piles of work by the GM. (In fact, PvP combat doesn't even require a GM be present.)
