Okay, this time for real: Free Starspiel

To my embarassment, when I posted the updated, play-tested edition of Free Starspiel, I actually posted an older version that did not refelct the playtesting, and, in fact, wasn't materially different from the even-more-previously posted Starshut Rules.

This document contains the complete rules, plus a bunch of useful hacks from the community, plus a few of my invention, plus some useful resources from Ben Milton's previous effort, Maze Rats . EDIT: I've updated the layout to fix errata and make a few tweaks. Further, I've made 3 variations: KNAVES TABLET LAYOUT The Tablet Layout is meant for scrolling on screens, and contains hyperlinks. KNAVES SPREAD LAYOUT The Spread Layout is set up to print on Letter-sized paper. KNAVES A4 LAYOUT The A4 Layout is set up to print on A4 paper, and is probably the most elegant of the three versions.
