About the Game

A science fiction themed dueling game, loosely related to Rapier & Dagger by the same designer. Published in White Dwarf issue #10.

Players create characters and have them fight. Could have been used as the basis of a simple combat system for an RPG, but never was. If players wanted to allow characters to gain experience, it was recommended that the system in Rapier & Dagger be used.
