Below is a Table of Contents (TOC) from the core Novus rulebook. As you can see, nearly every item on the TOC is a link. Those links take you to excepts from the core rules. Some of the links take you to pages where you find links to even more pages.
In short, the entirety of the Novus rules are available through the links below. We have done this for the simple purpose that we feel that you should be able to take a good look at the rules before you decide to purchase one of the PDFs or the print version of the rules.
You can click on the image of the cover to the right, to take you directly to DriveThru RPG, where you can purchase the rules.
Announcement: As of January 7th, 2023, Novus 1e (the text of the game, not any of the artwork) is hereby released under the Creative Commons license.
