What is it about?
TauCeti Deichmann’s Jovian Despair puts a transport crew between lunar colonies after a plague cuts off Earth. The inspected 2014 original has two rules pages and an additional sheet; an intact public copy replaces the inaccessible old attachment.

At the table
Each player makes two crew members and helps create the colonies. Roll a reverse d6 pool: each result of 1 causes failure and worsens consequences, which the rolling player describes. Better skills reduce dice; long projects can rebuild failing infrastructure.
