Welcome to the playtest!
This page is only for the use of playtesters. Please do not share it with anybody.
Thank you so much for helping us playtest these rules. This part of the process is vital to the development process.
How it works
Below you will find three PDF documents. These comprise the playtest package.
The first contains the Starship Combat rules you will be using. The second includes a bestiary of ships and NPCs. The third includes a number of playtest encounters.
Using these documents, please playtest the package (on video!) for 4 hours during the month of October.
Characters
You will not need to creat full characters for this playtest. Simply use NPCs from the Bestiary document as noted in the playtest package.
Send us your video
Simply upload your video somewhere and send us the link. Please remember that these videos are for private use only.
Getting paid
We will pay your designated recipient by PayPal on November 15th.
Asking questions
While you can ask us questions about the process, we cannot answer questions about the rules or the contents of the playtest package. This is because players of our game won’t have direct access to developers when playing, and we are playtesting how our rules work in the real world. If they’re not clear, we’ll pick that up when reviewing the videos.
What that means is that it’s important you try to play the rules as written without the benefit of clarification from the developers.
This is just playtest material, so we do expect you to run into issues! Don’t worry, that’s part of the process.
