Countdown Sequence

This is a team-based Tabletop Role playing Game, in which two disparate societies have discovered a resource-rich Planetoid deep in uncharted space. While the system is not currently occupied, leaders in your worlds believe this may not be the case for very long. Your team has been summoned by your leaders to prepare the Force that will go and claim that Planetoid and its resources for your people. Your team is not going, but your preparations will impact how well that Force fares in the inevitable conflict for those resources.

If you've ever thought "Fiasco is pretty cool, but needs more spreadsheets, and also to be about Starcraft", then this is the game for you.

Countdown Sequence uses hobby dice and a spreadsheet to create two competing teams of characters that are trying to claim resources for their people. Players take turns playing scenes, establishing relationships, and building an Entity, before rolling dice. Once the countdown sequence is complete, the final scores are tallied, and the two teams collaboratively describe the battle and outcome of their clash.

This is a playable alpha version, which includes:

• Full directions for play
• Four Force Sheets (playable teams) and a blank template
• Nine player character character moves
• Random inspiration tables

Game is not final. Some aspects may change between now and whenever I decide it's done.
