URBAN KNIGHTS is a roleplaying game set in an action-packed world inspired by 1970s cop and detective television shows. It's a "rules lite" game, which means URBAN KNIGHTS is a stripped-down, minimalist RPG designed to capture the gonzo action and bad one-liners of a very distinctive genre. The mechanics of the game are as simple as the pleasures of the genre itself, engineered to facilitate over-the-top action with a minimum of muss and fuss. All you need to play are these rules, a handful of six-sided dice, poker chips or other counters, and a few friends (the game plays best with 2-4 players and a GM). A classic funk playlist is probably a good idea, too.
