That Upcoming Star Trek RPG Comes In A Special Borg Cube Boxed Set!

Those looking forward to Modiphius' 2d20-based Star Trek Adventures may be excited to hear about a limited edition boxed set which contains a "1701-D" limited edition rulebook, miniatures, dice, tokens, a GM screen, geomorphic deck tiles, character sheets, and a poster map, Geek & Sundry is reporting. No details on price quite yet, but the pre-order opens on June 8th. But the best thing about it? It's shaped like a Borg Cube!

​

Here's what it contains:

• “1701-D” Collectible Edition Core Rulebook
• Original Series, Next Generation, Klingon, and Romulan miniatures sets
• Foam miniatures storage tray
• Custom Star Trek dice (in red, gold, and blue, of course)
• Tokens
• GM screen
• Starfleet geomorphic deck tiles
• Character sheets
• Momentum and Threat game tokens
• Poster map of the Alpha and Beta Quadrants.
• Price? Modiphius says "£300 retail value would be around $380US or $500 AUD. However yes there will be a special pre-order price."

See Geek & Sundry for more photos of the boxed set. For previous coverage here at EN World, check out the Romulan miniatures, and the TOS and TNG miniatures.

I'm thinking over twice that...
3 sets of Dice (Command, Science, and Operations)...$15 each is the going rate for most Q-Workshop sets...so $45
4 sets of 8 unpainted plastic minis...Modiphius skews high on the price of their minis and the license fees aren't going to help...looking at $5 per mini, or about $160 (even if they skew low, I don't see them dropping below $20 per set).
Limited Edition Rulebook....the regular edition book is probably going to be $50-60, so I imagine this will come in around $80
Tokens, character sheets, etc...we'll call it an even $20
The packaging...Fancy big box with drawers, a shield, and a foam insert for the minis. That will probably add at least $40 to the price.
So my guess is probably $350-400

I hope not.
I'll drop $200 in a heartbeat. I could maybe justify $250 or even $300. More than that is going to be hard for anyone to justify. That's more than the Runelords Anniversary Edition or Invisible Sun.

If it's only sold through their e-store they might make more per copy and can keep the price lower.

Unfortunately, their e-store is in England, so you are looking at international shipping and probably customs duties.

On the other hand, fortunately, their e-store is in England, so *I'm* not looking at international shipping and probably customs duties.

I expect they have a warehouse on that side of the pond. I don't know where the stuff is being printed and assembled.

They may be working out something for this, but I know currently, when I've ordered from them it is coming from the UK.

Lucky for me then! I think this thing is a definite sale to me. I'd want it for the extras even if I never played it!

So much want ... price dependent.

For the Conan Kickstarter, backers were able to pick up hardcopies at the Modiphius office in London to remove shipping costs. I suppose there's no guarantee that they'll have Star Trek stuff there, but it's at least a hopeful sign for those like Morrus.

Welp, I'm moving to Great Britain.
