DEEP SPACE ADVENTURE #6 - THE CYBORG'S HEART​

Byron Hendoo has lost his heart to the woman of his dreams. Literally.

During a mission on the water world of Kilo-Charlie-Foxtrot, interplanetary spy Byron Hendoo saved the life of and fell in love with Holly Bane, who he then decided to leave the service for. Then, one night, she stole his heart straight out of his chest.

Byron is a CyberSpy, an elite undercover operative with several cybernetic modifications to make him both a ghost and a killer. Recently he put out a distress call to his handler; his cybernetic heart has been taken and along with it several years of data regarding his operations as the false heart is also a databank. His backup pump is barely keeping him alive and he cannot operate, so he needs a team to intercept Holly Bane before she can get off-planet.

With nobody else available on this wet planet, the handler has passed the job on to the Explorers. Grab Holly Bane and retrieve the CyberSpy’s heart!​

A PROPHET OF EMPIRE

A great gathering is expected at an interstellar peace conference in the Barnard System, where dozens of starships from dozens of nations and independent worlds are going to gather to discuss their not-so-steady relations.

Into this conference comes Samantha Bridger, an outspoken political commentator with no particular allegiance other than to the future of humanity, and she has a single aim. She wants to announce what she thinks is the only thing that can save the human race; for all nations to combine under one banner and become the First Terran Empire.

But she is not offering an ideal. She says she has seen the future and this will happen. Behind her is an almost cult-like following – including people in high levels of politics, business and society – and her popularity and influence grows every day as some see her as a prophet, here to help humanity take their first steps into the future under her family’s benevolent rule.

Of course, not one single nation wants to see this happen and there is a rumour that her life will be at risk if she attends the conference...

DEEP SPACE ADVENTURE #8 - BE SILENT, SHIP OF DEATH

The Battlecruiser Carmichael has ended up within the borders of the Conglomerate after a navigational error.

The Conglomerate – a totalitarian regime with a brutal and oppressive rule – has seized the starship, ransomed the crew back and are in the final stages of stripping the ship bare. However, one of the ransomed crew, Agent Solen of Military Intelligence, has reported that they have vital intel hidden on the Battlecruiser that may avert a war.

In this 2-page adventure, the Explorers are tasked with getting on the Carmichael and retrieving the data.

With huge thanks to 'The Boys from the Baltic Star' Twitch stream for letting me put them through this adventure and their ongoing support!​

DEEP SPACE SOURCEBOOK #1 - THE CONGLOMERATE

With a total of 12 star systems in it’s regime, three of which have habitable worlds and are within three light years of each other, the Conglomerate is a large sector of space in which a grand experiment was conducted and inevitably failed.

Once a beacon of cultural and spiritual peace, the Conglomerate was created as a slice of the stars where people who tired of the constant struggle between the other nations could escape to, to live a life of enrichment in a utopia where each person would contribute their worth and their work so that all could benefit.

Within 10 years, a ruling class had emerged and took the reigns of power...

DEEP SPACE SOURCEBOOK #1 - THE CONGLOMERATE is a 2-page book providing information and stats for the totalitarian nation of the Conglomerate including key persons, military forces, starships, and the star systems to be explored... or conquered.

DEEP SPACE SOURCEBOOK #2 - ECHOES

Working for ECHOES is about exploration. It’s about travelling the galaxy, from one end to the other, and seeing the sights. Oh, and trying to figure out why the human race is the only species left out of hundreds of long-dead alien civilisations.

This 4-page sourcebook is about the mysteries of space. The alien races that have died out and disappeared are not just confined to planets – drifting starships and generation vessels, space stations, colonised moons and asteroids. Vast spaceships hidden in nebulae, rotting undiscovered for hundreds, perhaps thousands of years. Cities, over and underground, in various states of decay. Some places look like they fell into despair generations ago and are but dust, whereas others look as though they were built only yesterday. The dead races are vast and varied.

We can’t bring them back, but we can use what they left behind. The main problem is that there are differing ideas between governments, corporations and individuals of influence on how the tech should be utilised. ECHOES exists to try and divide the discoveries between everyone equally so that all humanity benefits from new discoveries.

Huxley’s Moon is a utopia for those willing to give up a part of themselves. In exchange for their dreams being recorded, the citizens of the settlement are given luxuries beyond compare; delicacies from a hundred different worlds, the finest wines and spirits, and thousands upon thousands of forms of entertainment and activities.​

So, it's a story about Facebook?

I clicked on the DTRPG preview button for the base game and got a pdf of the ... solar system sheet? Was hoping to find out how the game is played. But that got me wondering - do the adventures port well to other light-rules games?

By the way, the cover art is great. I keep expecting to see Will Robinson's robot in one of them

DEEP SPACE SOURCEBOOK #3 - MOONBASE JERICHO

When the Stellar War broke out the Moon became a primary prize for all sides and they fought savagely over its resources and tactical advantage over Earth. The Moon-born citizens – Lunarites – either dug deeper or fled, and by the end of the war it was almost totally abandoned, and stayed that way for years.

With an uneasy truce between the nations of the settled stars, the Moon has once again become of huge interest. The Luna surface is dotted with settlements but underneath the surface... what treasures await the cunning explorer, the brave adventurer or the curious scholar?

This 2-page sourcebook gives some background of the Moon's struggles and introduces Luna Delving, exploring deep into the caverns and tunnels of the Moon using a random table. Delving started as a trend but now it is a full-fledged enterprise, with Delvers sponsored by parties of all nations. Regardless of the stories of rogue warbots, genetic monsters, rabid Lunarites and religious cults born from decades in the dark, thousands travel to the Moon for fame, glory and riches.

This business is facilitated by Moonbase Jericho, the first Luna settlement and the main port of call where many of the delves strike out from. This is where your adventure begins...

lol - I wish I'd called it Zuckerberg's Moon, now.

The rules system is so light a preview would give it all away, but it's a bunch of 11 skills scored from 1 to 11, and the mechanic is roll a D12, add the skill score and hit a target number of 13. It's really simple.

There's a video of gameplay here - the character creation and rules explanation is at the beginning of the video, if it helps.

DEEP SPACE ADVENTURE #9 - RETURN TO GOLF ALPHA TANGO

Golf Alpha Tango was recently discovered by the ship Coriolis and then initially surveyed by brave teams of Explorers who mapped and catalogued a lot of the world over the last year.

However, due to the promising early data the Nation has decided to bring their colonisation plans forward by a whole year and have begun to move habitation pods and several hundred settlers to the new world, which they have called Sherwood. The Explorer’s mission is to build a colony from scratch and make sure that the claim to this planet is staked without question; rumour has it that other nations are moving into this region of space and Sherwood’s proximity to the border of the Conglomerate is creating a lot of tension.

Also, why is the Nation eager to settle this world so quickly? Can the PCs settle this world and discover the truth in this 2-page adventure?
