Grab your plasma pistol, load up on adhesive grenades, and fire up an energy shield as you get ready for action in the sci-fi roleplaying game about building a legacy in the frontier of the galaxy. Play as a mutated animal hybrid, a cybernetically enhanced robo-freak, or an uplifted plant-thing in a world where anything is possible and freedom is as close as your starship’s airlock door. What is this? Space Cowboys is a roleplaying game about folks on the edges of civilization doing what it takes to realize a vision of the future. Featuring characters and play in the vein of Cowboy Bebop, Firefly or Guardians of the Galaxy. Build a merchant empire, found your own cites, create a government, found a mining corporation or unite the pirate tribes to conquer and plunder. Uses Basic Roleplaying by Chaosium , the world's greatest roleplaying system. Generate your profession and backstory with the easy-to-use Gigs system, filling your character with life before you begin play. New futuristic weapons, vehicles, armor and gear. Control the fundamental forces of physics with your mind. Simple and powerful starship creation and upgrade system. Includes the Conesta Rho setting: Organizations, NPCs, Planets and Places ready for play. World creation is fast and easy, create entire societies on the fly. Gene freaking, Cybernetic enhancements and advanced drones. Flexible system for creating and upgrading structures, vehicles and starships: Build cities, design capital ships, create an army. Fast and detailed combat using the Strike Rank system. Full bestiary, including alien monsters, mercenaries and a rough crew to rival the players. Introductory mission and characters to get you started playing tonight. Uses simple and intuitive d100 core mechanic. Skills and powers improve as you use them, no arbritary levels or experience points When is this? I am looking for playtesters for one-shots. Though the focus is on straining the system, there will be a fun narrative giving you a chance to express your character and make meaningful choices. I will be running one tomorrow around 2pm PST. I will also be running additional one-shots throughout the next two or three weeks on an ad hoc basis. Who can play? Anyone and everyone. Long-time grognards, never played an RPG before, only played D&D. Everyone is welcome to try this out and have some fun. ....... SEE YOU SPACE COWBOY
You've peaked my curiosity. I'm willing to give it a shot if your willing to be patient with a newbie to RPing. I can't do one tomorrow, but please let me know when you're doing one through the week. I'm based in the UK, so the 2pm start time isn't too late for me. I'm over 30 so mature content is okay. If you're using roll 20 I've not yet used it for a game yet, so please bear that in mind. I'd appreciate a bit of time before the session to go over character creation and the general premise of the game with you, unless you're already planning to do that in the scheduled time.

Character creation will be done with the group, as I want to see how clear my instructions are in the book. Usage of advanced Roll20 functions is not necessary, just use the dice roller and move your token around is all. I am very interested to see how a newer player takes to the game, so no problem at all there. Looking forward to playing with you.
