+//Five Parsecs From Home is an rpg-lite solo adventure wargame where you assemble a ragtag crew of galactic trailblazers and head out to explore the stars, pick up jobs, and every now and then —  engage in some action-packed, sci-fi combat!\\ \\
-**The last tomb was crawling with Grave Walkers.**
+Battles are procedurally generated with huge combinations of enemies, weapons, battlefield circumstances and objectives whether fighting rivals or carrying out jobs.\\ \\
-The Tower held a fey sorcerer; we lost Tring there, blasted by eldritch fire; Artum fell as we ran from the trolls of the deep woods, but for now, the village is safe. Tonight we’ll restock the gear and recruit any travelers from the inn who fancy a share of the coin. Tomorrow we’ll take the woods, then bring down that cursed tower for good. Maybe then we can rest, but there are already worrying rumors from the next valley…\\
+With each encounter you earn experience and loot, progressing your crew and story as you send your crew to look for contacts, trade, explore the colony, recruit replacements or train up their skills.\\ \\
-Five Leagues From the Borderlands is a solo adventure wargame where you take the role of a warband of heroes and adventurers and explore a grim fantasy world full of monsters, enemies, creeping malice, and exciting quests.\\
+The game is playable with any miniatures you have on hand and requires only a small number to get started, making it ideal for both experienced and new science fiction gamers. All you need is a few six-sided dice and a couple of ten-sided dice.//
+\\
-The whole campaign is generated procedurally with each battle created from over 100 different enemy types, 17 unique foes, and 6 scenario types that can play out in a wide number of ways. As you play, you will explore the game world, discover new locations, and take on quests and jobs. Your Warband will gain in experience and power and find wondrous loot… or die gruesomely in brutal combat.\\

+While **Bray** certainly adheres to the spirit of the //[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Letter_and_spirit_of_the_law|Rules As Written]]//, we will make adjustments to tell the epic Galactic [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_opera|Space-Opera-like]] story, ala [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buck_Rogers|Buck Rogers]] that we are itching to tell. The story-telling elements and the simplified combat system are going to make our episodic stories a lot easier to tell than with other systems we've attempted.
-The game is playable with any miniatures you may own and can be played on a 2x2 foot or 3x3 foot gaming table, making it ideal for players who are just getting started on fantasy gaming or for whom this is their first miniatures game. All you need is 6 figures for your heroes and a handful of suitable enemies to fight.\\ \\ \\
