HardNova II

A science-fiction roleplaying game set in a galaxy where Earth and several alien worlds form the United Sovereign Worlds. Players can smuggle exotic goods, investigate mysteries aboard space liners, explore the frontier, and navigate tensions between allied species, including a synthetic race and a formerly hostile people facing discrimination. The fast-paced 2d6 rules support one-shot adventures, extended campaigns, or custom settings, with optional compatibility with a diceless space-opera system. Character, robot, and starship templates, ready-to-play scenarios, alien abilities, and reference sheets allow play to begin quickly without extensive preparation.
