from the introduction
Star Corps is part of the One Night Stand range of games – fast-playing and entertaining role playing games that you can pick up and play with a minimum of preparation. This “play right out of the box” approach makes One Night Stand games perfect for those times when you don’t have enough players to continue your regular game, or when you just feel like a change of pace. While the rules are simple enough to facilitate one-off games, you will also find enough detail and options to allow you to use this product for longer adventures or even campaigns.
All you need to play are a few friends, a handful of d6 and a character sheet for each player. It is assumed that at least one player has some experience with role playing games.
