Iron Crown Enterprises presents SpaceMaster:The Role Playing Gamerm. Revised, expanded, and reformatted, this Second Edition updates the original role playing rules, and integrates material from the popular Space Master Companion.
THE ULTIMATE IN FLEXIBILITY

The Space Master System is useable in a variety of SF environments, from a black near future of post-holocaust Earth, to a culture of high-tech exploration, to a distant time where civilization has fallen to superstitious ruin.
Choose from 17 professions, including Armsman, Planetologists, Telepaths, Starship Pilots, or Engineering Specialists. There are dozens of sub-professions, yet all are flexible, eliminating artificial restrictions. Over 120 skills and a rich selection of background options allow each character to be a complex, multi-talented individual. The sophisticated rules are set out in a lucid, understandable format.
Space Master: The Role Playing GameTM is completely compatible with all Space Master Modules, and is the first part of a Science Fiction Gaming Trilogy. Space Master: Star Strike TM (Fall 1988), a fast-paced game of
interplanetary ship combat, puts you in the gunner’s chair as you face enemy starships. Space Master: Armored AssaultTM (Winter 1988-89), moves the combat planetside, where Hovertanks, Powered Armor, and Aircraft vie for
supremacy. Space Master can also be integrated with Rolemaster; used together they set the stage for sweeping, coherent, science-fantasy campaigns.
