This is a true Open D6 gem I found with Fallen Earth. It utilizes the Mini Six variant of Open D6 and manages to create a whole setting within 180 pages.
The setting feels like the 50s/60s alien invasion where the adversaries enslaved humanity with an even more sinister goals apart from exploiting earth and its resources. But there are still free humans around, hunted and hiding from their alien overlords but ready to fight back.
Next to the Mini Six rules and the setting description, the book contains gear, vehicle rules, the main alien adversaries, a random alien generator to add even more adversaries on the fly, a bestiary, a psionic system with many psionic powers. All in all this book suffices to play right out of the box.
Next to the pdf version I was able to purchase the book on Amazon as the pdf really hooked me.
OpenD6/MiniSix is an ingenious generic system, which deserves way more love and I am always happy to see material created like Fallen Earth. I hope to see more D6 goodness coming from James, if it's adventures for Fallen Earth or new settings.
