New Sample Rule Set – Raw Six

December 19, 2020 / Mini Six Fanatic / 0 Comments

In my constant tinkering of the Open D6 and Mini Six rules, one of my goals has always been to create a set of mechanics that provides the simplicity and flexibility needed for gaming in a convention (or time limited) setting. The prerequisites for this include being easy to teach, common consistency in core mechanics and allows genre specific rules to be easily bolted on.

My most recent attempt at this is Raw Six, where I’ve pared back Open D6 to what I think are its fundamentals. However, I’ve also looked to add more player agency with a Stress mechanic, that allows characters to gain temporary advantages, at a longer term cost.

Like Simple Six, Raw Six leans heavily on the design philosophy of AntiPaladin Games’ Mini Six rule set and I’m forever grateful for the efforts of Ray Nolan and Phil Morris.

So, please feel free to download this draft and email me any feedback (good or bad) at unboundpublishing@gmail.com.

Another Site Update…

One every 10 years isn’t too bad, is it?

While this site doesn’t get as much love as it should, I do add more content to MSF’s sister sites – see the footer below!

Arrival of #Simple Six: Test Drive

May 23, 2018 / Mini Six Fanatic / 0 Comments

Hi All… I’ve thrown together a cut down version of the D6 Legend system, I’ve called Simple Six. Based heavily on the concepts of Mini Six I’d be happy to hear any feedback or comments.

If there is an interest in this approach, I will look at extending the rules (a bit, especially in regards to different genres), and perhaps do a larger release with some sample settings (Kickstart it for some art maybe?)

Anyway – you can find the Simple Six: #Test Drive here!
