The 1PG line is ideal for players and referees who don’t have the luxury of many hours to devote to creating intricate scenarios and/or learning complex roleplaying systems. Each 1PG is based on a movie or television genre and follows the tropes of its particular genre. They’re downloadable and printable, the basic rules fit on the character sheet, and character generation takes about 5 minutes. Finally, each title contains its own page of referee tips, a master weapons/gear list, and between 6 and 9 ready-to-play scenarios.
The 1PG Compendium is available in a printed bookshelf edition which includes all 17 core settings, plus every Deep7-published expansion and freebie, all in one hefty volume! We recommend the beautiful hardcover from DriveThruRPG, which is the same price as the softcover from Amazon.
