What's O.L.D. is N.E.W. (W.O.I.N.) is the system powering three gorgeous crunchy compatible roleplaying games - medieval fantasy 80s action heroes and far-future science fiction. These games are called O.L.D. N.O.W. and N.E.W. respectively and are all open (as in open gaming content) and entirely compatible with each other. Designed from the start as a toolkit-oriented game system you are encouraged to design your own content using the extensive guidelines found in each book.

Bounty hunters track down outlaws hiding in trader towns on worlds at the fringe of the galaxy. Starships explore unknown worlds going where nobody has gone before. Great generational arks seek somewhere to call home. Detectives investigate a murder on a trail which will take them from Mars to Jupiter's moons. Agents infiltrate a criminal organization going undercover to take down a galactic crime boss. A group of smugglers locates a new hyperdrive system to increase the speed of their freighter.

Play a brave starship captain a reckless smuggler a hardy marine or a daredevil pilot. Are you a cunning bounty hunter a clever engineer or a charismatic trader? Over sixty science fiction careers await you!
