Here is the link to the page:

StarCadets Page on BoardGameGeek.com

It was uploaded on 5-21-2012!  How did I miss it for that long?

StarCadets RPG -- the original version

StarCadets!  My first all on one page (and one side!) Role Playing Game!

I wrote this waay back in 1998.  It took me about two months, off and on, to write it -- it was crazy fun!  At the time there wasn't that many "micro" RPGs out there.  When I saw some, I thought -- I can do that!  And here it is.

When I planned it, I decided it needed a gimmick -- I made the title longer than the rules!  If you count the lines, the title block is one line longer than the rules block.  LOL.

Game-wise, it is a science fiction role playing game.  The first place I uploaded it, claimed it was an outline....(lol, this page was all there was!)  Or that it is a parody of Traveller...(No it isn't, but there was a copy of the Traveller book handy when I wrote this...)

So here it is...as it originally appeared...enjoy!
