Update 5 for Sixty Years in Space is out

I'm extremely happy to announce update 5 is out for Sixty Years in Space, along with a new solo/coop standalone sequel A Lot of Zeroes about mapping a journey through the Milky Way with your immortal and unusual crew. It's inspired by the High Frontier Interstellar board game I helped develop but goes much, much further: to the galactic core and beyond! You may already own A Lot of Zeroes, which was previously released as a supplement for Sixty Years in Space, but you may feel like the beautiful new cover art by Federico Sohns is worth rebuying the game for.


But not only that. A Facility with Words now has a new campaign start! Play as exoarchitects, professionals or start at the bottom rung of society in the exoglobalization era. The fourth wave of humanity's expansion into space includes a revolutionary life path character generation system inspired by Traveller, but which plays out on the High Frontier map and continues throughout the game. Better yet, it's completely compatible with High Frontier 4All, to allow players from the latest edition of the board game to smoothly transition into a TTRPG.

Some rules have been removed from both a Facility with Words and A Lot of Zeroes: these will reappear in new supplements that didn't quite feel complete enough for me to release in the state they're in. I'll take the same approach here for one of these supplements where I'll initially release it as PWYW; there's only a couple of chapters of material going into the other so I'll release those chapters for free.
