Deep Sky Ballad - Space Western TTRPG

Inspired by legendary settings such as Firefly, Westworld, Borderlands, Trigun or Cowboy Bebop, Deep Sky Ballad is a space western genre ttrpg where the characters play the members of a posse - fortune seekers more or less tightly bound to each other who share their resources and a spaceship in search of purpose or wealth. 

In a once-united galaxy, war and hatred have taken everything away, leaving only blackened ruins behind.

Despite this, humanity survived this catastrophe, albeit enormously weakened. With tenacity and versatility, they have reconstructed part of what they have lost. They charted once again the depths of space, though still isolated and disorganized. With a pioneering spirit, fleets of settlers explored virgin worlds and planets lost to the catastrophe, in search of a place they to call home in what is now a boundless frontier, free from the influence of supraplanetary governments and organizations.
In these skies without laws and obligations posse of adventurers, explorers, fugitives and misfits travel on their spaceships from planet to planet, in search of a future or simply wealth. They face the horrors of the past, the terrors hiding in the drifting ships, in the void and ruins of alien civilizations - or simply the greed and wickedness lurking in their neighbors.

Deep Sky Ballad rules system is based on Blackjack. No dice required, but you will need a playing cards deck to play it. This will turn every challenge or combat into an exciting Blackjack match!

In addition to the Blackjack System, there are an innovative spaceships combat system and the Hardboiled System. The first is a simple, agile and fast mechanic involving all the players; the Hardboiled System, with which the interactions between the characters of the Posse can create bonds of all kinds, will unlock various game options and unique abilities.
