for short) is a role-playing adventure game for persons 10 years and older. In the Star Frontiers rules, individuals play the role of characters in a fantasy world where space travel is real and heroes venture out on dangerous quests in search of fame and fortune. Characters gain experience by overcoming perils and achieving goals. As characters gain experience, they grow in power and ability. At least two persons are needed to play this game, though the game is most enjoyable when played by a group of four to eight people. This game, unlike others, does not use a playing board or actual playing pieces. All that is needed to play are these rules, the dice included in this set, pencil and paper, graph paper, and imagination. The game may be more exciting if miniature lead figures of the characters and monsters are used, but the game can be played without such aids. </span><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text;

All player characters begin the game at the first level of experience, and will gain levels of experience through adventures. </span><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 21.5833px; font-family: Calibri, Calibri_EmbeddedFont, Calibri_MSFontService, sans-serif" class="EOP BCX8 SCXW10273291"> </span></p></div><div class="OutlineElement Ltr BCX8 SCXW10273291" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; overflow: visible; cursor: text; clear: both; position: relative; direction: ltr; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Segoe UI Web', Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 12px"><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; overflow-wrap: break-word; white-space: pre-wrap; vertical-align: baseline; font-kerning: none; background-color: transparent; color: windowtext" class="Paragraph BCX8 SCXW10273291"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 21.5833px; font-family: Calibri, Calibri_EmbeddedFont, Calibri_MSFontService, sans-serif" class="EOP BCX8 SCXW10273291"> </span></p></div><div class="OutlineElement Ltr BCX8 SCXW10273291" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; overflow: visible; cursor: text; clear: both; position: relative; direction: ltr; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Segoe UI Web', Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 12px"><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; overflow-wrap: break-word; white-space: pre-wrap; vertical-align: baseline; font-kerning: none; background-color: transparent; color: windowtext" class="Paragraph BCX8 SCXW10273291"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 21.5833px; font-family: Calibri, Calibri_EmbeddedFont, Calibri_MSFontService, sans-serif" class="TextRun BCX8 SCXW10273291"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent" class="NormalTextRun BCX8 SCXW10273291">MONSTERS: A &quot;monster level&quot; </span><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent" class="NormalTextRun BCX8 SCXW10273291">indicates</span><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent" class="NormalTextRun BCX8 SCXW10273291"> how tough and ferocious a type of monster is.

For example, 5d8 means an 8-sided die thrown 5 times, and would generate a total from 5 to 40. </span><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 21.5833px; font-family: Calibri, Calibri_EmbeddedFont, Calibri_MSFontService, sans-serif" class="EOP BCX8 SCXW10273291"> </span></p></div><div class="OutlineElement Ltr BCX8 SCXW10273291" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; overflow: visible; cursor: text; clear: both; position: relative; direction: ltr; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Segoe UI Web', Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 12px"><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; overflow-wrap: break-word; white-space: pre-wrap; vertical-align: baseline; font-kerning: none; background-color: transparent; color: windowtext" class="Paragraph BCX8 SCXW10273291"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 21.5833px; font-family: Calibri, Calibri_EmbeddedFont, Calibri_MSFontService, sans-serif" class="EOP BCX8 SCXW10273291"> </span></p></div><div class="OutlineElement Ltr BCX8 SCXW10273291" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; overflow: visible; cursor: text; clear: both; position: relative; direction: ltr; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Segoe UI Web', Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 12px"><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; overflow-wrap: break-word; white-space: pre-wrap; vertical-align: baseline; font-kerning: none; background-color: transparent; color: windowtext" class="Paragraph BCX8 SCXW10273291"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 21.5833px; font-family: Calibri, Calibri_EmbeddedFont, Calibri_MSFontService, sans-serif" class="TextRun BCX8 SCXW10273291">The d4 looks like a pyramid. The best way to &quot;throw&quot; or roll a 4- sided die is to spin it and toss it straight up. It will land on one face (side) with three faces showing. The bottom number on each of the three faces is the same; this number is the result of the throw. </span><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 21.5833px; font-family: Calibri, Calibri_EmbeddedFont, Calibri_MSFontService, sans-serif" class="EOP BCX8 SCXW10273291"> </span></p></div><div class="OutlineElement Ltr BCX8 SCXW10273291" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; overflow: visible; cursor: text; clear: both; position: relative; direction: ltr; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Segoe UI Web', Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 12px"><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; overflow-wrap: break-word; white-space: pre-wrap; vertical-align: baseline; font-kerning: none; background-color: transparent; color: windowtext" class="Paragraph BCX8 SCXW10273291"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 21.5833px; font-family: Calibri, Calibri_EmbeddedFont, Calibri_MSFontService, sans-serif" class="EOP BCX8 SCXW10273291"> </span></p></div><div class="OutlineElement Ltr BCX8 SCXW10273291" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; overflow: visible; cursor: text; clear: both; position: relative; direction: ltr; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Segoe UI Web', Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 12px"><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; overflow-wrap: break-word; white-space: pre-wrap; vertical-align: baseline; font-kerning: none; background-color: transparent; color: windowtext" class="Paragraph BCX8 SCXW10273291"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 21.5833px; font-family: Calibri, Calibri_EmbeddedFont, Calibri_MSFontService, sans-serif" class="TextRun BCX8 SCXW10273291">The other dice are rolled normally and the top face gives the result. The 0 on the d10 is read as &quot;10&quot;. The d10 can also be used to generate a percentage (a number from 1 to 100). To do so, roll the d10 twice: the first roll gives the &quot;tens&quot; number, and the second roll gives the &quot;ones&quot; number. For example, a roll of 5 followed by a roll of 3 would be read as 53. A roll of 0 followed by another roll of 0 equals 100. Generating a number from 1 to 100 will be referred to as rolling percentage dice (or d%). </span><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent;

and &quot;losing&quot;, things important to most games, do not apply to Star Frontiers games! The GM and the players do not play against each other, even though the GM often plays the role of various antagonists which threaten the player characters. The GM must not take sides. He or she is a guide and a referee, the person who keeps the action flowing and creates an exciting adventure. Player characters have fun by overcoming fantastic obstacles and acquiring wealth, but this does not end the game. Nor is the game &quot;lost&quot; when an unlucky player's character dies, since the player may simply &quot;roll up&quot; a new character and continue playing. A good Star Frontiers campaign is similar to the creation of a fantasy novel, written by the GM and the players.</span><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 21.5833px; font-family: Calibri, Calibri_EmbeddedFont, Calibri_MSFontService, sans-serif" class="EOP BCX8 SCXW10273291"> </span></p></div>
