What system/rules will you be using for the game?

to be honest, i was just going to do a "i wanna do a thing" 'that's a hard thing, but you're guy is good at it, roll over 15 on these three dice' "16" 'you barely do the thing.'

probably a bad idea, but mechanics were never my strong suit for GMing, my strength is in improvisation.

You should check out this one-page system.

well that's just perfect, have you used these rules before? does it take long to learn? the other players (and I) are pretty slow at picking up new systems.

Is this part of something more?

I still remember it. Years later and we still never topped it.

Having glanced at the rules for 1 minute, I understand the system.

Perhaps change the adjectives a bit, allow the players to write something (nothing too broad).
You basically have 4 stats, rated 1-4. Roll that many d6's in a relevant situation, 5+ is a success. Failure will generally result in oxygen loss (representing time lost or panic etc). If that is not relevant, you can always play out wounds. (The creature bites into your leg; When you try to run you will only get successes on a 6.)

>have you used these rules before?
Yes, several times both as a player and a GM

>does it take long to learn?
Not really.

Your four stats are the d6 dice pools you use for checks based on those stats. When you attempt something that calls for a roll, you roll a number of d6s equal to your stat, and any dice that come up a 5 or 6 count as successes. 1 success for a hard task, 2 successes for a very hard task, most things don't require rolls (if it's something a well-trained 1960s cosmonaut could do without difficulty).

Chargen Part C has you pick two attributes to describe your character. Whenever you attempt a task that makes use of at least one of these attributes, then 4s, 5, and 6s all count as successes.

Oxygen is your HP, you lose half an hour of o2 every time you fail a check.
