FSpaceRPG is a science fiction roleplaying game in the classic mould.

In the late 22nd century mankind expands into the the stars only to find them in more turmoil than it's own internal nationalism. Pitted against the onslaught of the expansion of the Stotatl Empire, humanity must defend itself while forging alliances with others who face absorption.

Whether you're a Terran soldier or an Aronhi Warrior from the partially conquered Aronhi Empire, one goal stands supreme above all, survival. The wits and courage to stand and fight against superior odds and create victories from difficult situations.

But not all the glory lies in the hands of warriors. Exploration of the vast wilderness that is space, charting dangers, finding resources and contacting potential allies is a cornerstone of survival.

The conflict, intrigue, action and adventure of these times provide an exciting roleplaying environment for players, whether they like playing space marines, traders, spies, investigators or just general adventure seekers. The span of events in reality are all possible, giving a wide scope of play.

Dice usage in games

(About)

FSpaceRPG, FED RPG and TayanaRPG all use a combination of ten sided and percentile dice, often referred to as d10 and d100 dice.

The skill system relies on d100 percentile dice for any tasks. Character generation relies on a combination of dice, either multiple d10s or multiple d100s. The Combat system uses a d100 percentile dice for activities using skills and multiples of d10s for aspects.

You can either invest in a few d10 and d100 dice, but you don't have to. A d100 can be rolled using one or two d10s. The first roll can be the number for the 10s digit, while the second roll is the number for the 1s digit. A result of 00 on both rolls being a 100. If you have 2d10s, then you can roll them together, nominating one of them as the tens digit before making the roll.

You can also use a d20 as a d10. Simply ignore any 10s digit on the dice for the likes of 11 through to 19. Treat these as 1 to 9. A roll of 10 or 20 being the same as a 10 on a d10.

Many vendors produce and sell dice of differing types. Also a number of vendors make small applications for computers, PDAs and smartphones that can simulate dice rolling. We've made available out own d10 dice roller for Mac OS X Leopard computers.
