I really love the system. In a nutshell it is a combination of the Free League house system (Mutant Year Zero) with Yahtzee, a quite ingenious idea.

Instead of counting sixes for success, you count multiples of a number, 2x is a basic success, 3x critical, 4x extreme, 5x impossible. In addition you can reroll any dice if you have at least a basic success in your first throw.

Easy to learn for new players, it gains complexity by a plethora of special rules, but they usually concern specific player abilities, so that they do not overwhelm.

Quick review based on my reading, so at least people know what to expect, given there's no preview.

~15 pages: Creating Missions This section outlines a campaign framework with 5 phases (as opposed to the Core book's 3 phases), helping you to structure a campaign. Coming from a background of open-ended sandbox-style OSR GMing, I appreciated a bit of guidance on how I might set out a more structured game, which seems to be the go for a game trying to emulate a 100-minute action movie. While the section did provide a few random tables to get the GM going if they are struggling for inspiration, I found the tables pretty thin and was hoping for more in this respect.

~15 pages: Creating Adventures This is, to some extent, a copy paste of Creating Missions, but tailored for the Outgunned Adventure book. The level of tweaking for Adventures is about the same as how much Outgunned Adventure was tweaked from Outgunned. If you appreciated going through Outgunned Adventure after having read Outgunned and having a single book to refer to, you'll appreciate this. If you wondered why Outgunned Adventure wasn't just a smaller supplement, you probably won't feel this is hugely valuable.

~20 pages: Playing Solo I have no interest in solo gaming so this will be short. There are a few pages of instructions and some random tables. The tables in this might be somewhat useful for those looking for some inspiration for multi-player games too, although are more focused on set-dressing such as location rather than key plot elements (although there are a few useful tables in that respect, to be fair).

~8 pages: Hot Shots 4 Outgunned one-page missions and 4 Outgunned Adventure one-page missions. These are decent starters when you consider you can only fit so much onto one page. I don't tend to run modules out of books, but would consider using these as ideas to get me started.

From my own personal point of view, I'd been hoping for more/larger random tables for idea generation, since getting started is where I struggle, and coming from OSR am used to big d100 tables with lots of ideas. Perhaps just a long list of action movie scene tropes would have been nice. The instructions on how to structure an ~8-session campaign were appreciated as someone coming from a very different style of gaming. Overall, not mind blowing, but certainly not bad. Probably about right for the price. Knowing what's in it now, I'd probably buy it (if I hadn't already taken the leap of faith).

The already slick and fun Outgunned system gets even more options to add to the toolbox. This taster of the system offers a small insight into what will surely be another vast set of options in the final book, to create any kind of super heroic campaign. The Director's Cut system compliments action movies in a way I've never seen in similar titles, and 2LM run crowdfunding campaigns like no other. Get in on the ground floor and leap into another dazzling adventure!

Outgunned is fantastic. The art is incredible and pays homage to so many action movies. The rules are simple, yet engaging and it does an excellent job of capturing the feel of cinematic fights. A must have for gamers at a reasonable price.

I backed this on Kickstarter because I love RPGs and my wife loves Indiana Jones.

I finally got a chance to sit down and read through it. It is AMAZING. Everything is well thought-through, well explained (the running examples are the best!), and just so exciting! I cannot wait to direct a campaign for my wife and friends.

I'm sure it won't be long before I'm picking up the rest of the Outgunned content. Bravo!

Best and easiest system out there for people like me with little free time.

Excellent presentation and easy to implement rules to create games inspired by some truly great cinema.

Great John Wick spin-off for Outgunned, new character options and a short campaign included. An awesome addition to the Outgunned universe.

Love this rule system. Adventure lets you play Indiana Jones, The Mummy, Uncharted and Tomb Raider style action adventures. Love this system!

Best Action / Adventure RPG game out there! Totally worth it!

The best pulp adventure RPG out there. While past ones managed to capture the trappings of the genre on paper, this one manages to capture the cinematic action in play as well with easy to read quick rules that encourage players to try daring feats without making them overpowered and always making sure the story moves forward even when the dice don't come up in the most positive way. Highly recommend.

Withholding the Directors Screen for Shits and giggles!

I love this game - the one thing costing you 4 stars is not making the Directors Screen available here. You hassle me by withholding a timesaver. Great Style.

Do you like 90's action movies? Do you like Martial arts movies, City Hunter or John Wick? Do you like simple but not simplitist systems? Are you disapointed by the system of the offical GI joe RPG like I am?

Then Outgunned is for you.!

The point is simple everything pulpy or actionized works with Outgunned, you can make a character in 10 minutes and he will be very solid and effective. The rules are great and have this little thing that does not make them bland. To be clear : you roll attribute+skill D6. You try to do pairs, triples, squares and even 5 of. You can try to improve your roll but if you fail, you loose what you have BUT you have feats that often fibes reroll without risk. That works wonderfully.

ennemies are represetend as a challenge and that works great for action and so the gameplay is fluid.

The art is nice, the structure of the book is excellent, the writing is clear. The PDF is both in ITA and english and so are the fillable character sheets.

Do I have something wrong to say about this game? No.

Great for fast paced action adventures, but as the "Action flicks" supplement shows it has a broader scope than that. If you want to play period drama or clashing kingdoms, with whole kingdoms as characters, then maybe choose FATE. In basically any other case, the Director's cut system helps you tell great, entertaining stories
