The fabulous "One Stat fits All" generic Ruleset for Role-playing Games.
The OCP System is extremely flexible and can easily be used for any kind of setting.
The rules are easy to learn and remember. For the GM, it is very simple to create NPCs. Players can easily create all sorts of Characters.
The entire set of rules that you need to know for playing, fits on a two A4 pages Rules Reference Sheet!
Everything is explained in detail and a lot of examples ensure that the rules are clearly understood by everybody who wants to use it.
Available in multiple versions for optimized reading on different devices.
It is 56 A4 pages packed with detailed rules explanations, examples and art. It has tons of inspiration on how to be a good GM and lots of inspirational artwork: More than 50 pieces of great (AI created) art.
It also contains an introductory Western Adventure Sandbox. The Sandbox provides four pre-made Characters, a couple of Maps, some NPCs and Villains, along with roughly sketched ideas about how the PCs can interact with each other, the NPCs and Villains, to create some memorable Adventures in the Old West.
More than 30 years of Game Master experience have been molded into a simple set of rules that actually works and is fun to play.
The OCP System can be used with any setting: Fantasy, Sci-Fi, Gaslight, Modern, Romance, Horror. Everything works.
It is very fast and easy to create characters and even simpler to create NPCs. Just perfect if you're in the mood for a quick game, but do not want to spend hours of re-reading rules and character generation frameworks.
The core value of the system is its clear and simple to grasp rules. They follow one simple principle that is applied to all areas of the game.
It allows for great flexibility in play, but it is not the kind of game where everything is completely depending on the Game Masters whims. The system precisely covers every aspect of combat: hitting, being hit and how to handle damage.
