Building Better Benefits

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Character generation in both Cepheus Engine (CE) and the Original Science Fiction Roleplaying Game (OSFRPG) typically ends with thowing on the Mustering Out benefits tables. The tables are adequate for giving the hero starting material and cash benefits, but the tables are often too similar and limiting. A solution: build the benefit tables as character generation progresses. This method takes the PC’s background into account and produces a customized table unique to that individual.

Building Better Benefits is a short supplement for CE and the OSFRPG, although it’s usable with other systems with a little work. Offering a variant method for granting benefits to characters completing their terms of prior service, it uses a step-by-step, worked example to show the Referee how to customize the character’s career benefits.

Thin content at best. 1 title page, 1 page of content, 1 license page. And the whole thing is rotated 90 degrees for some reason making it hard to read on a monitor. [...]

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
