Play Star Trek By Yourself In This New Solo Version of Star Trek Adventures

Captain's Log Solo Roleplaying Game is new from Modiphius (which produces the official Star Trek Adventures TTRPG). The digest-sized rulebook is 326 pages long, and you play a starship captain as your ship and crew explore the galaxy.

The game is set in any era of Star Trek, from TOS all the way through to Discovery in the 32nd Century, Missions are randomly generated, as there is no gamemaster, but the game can also be played cooperatively with a GM.

The book comes on in August, but if you pre-order now you get the PDF immediately.

StarTrek.com has a preview of the game.

Is there a way to purchase just the PDF cause I am not paying 40 in shipping.

I'm sure there will be.

The PDF by itself will be available for purchase in early August, once the print editions start shipping.

Update: (I feel so dumb) at the top of the modiphius website, there is an option to choose their US store (red banner i believe) THAT is much better shipping (for those in the US that is).

I just purchased it. I'll give it a look and give my thoughts.

 

[ART!]

I love that this exists, and I will probably buy it come payday.

The odds of getting someone else in my local group to run STA is diminishingly small, so playing it this way is the best I can reasonably hope for.

It’s a fantastic book, I picked it up the other day, and I already see things I’m going to add to the campaign I’m running for my friends. Star Trek Adventures is such a fun game, I’m really excited to play it solo as well.

First actual play is live. Character generation via the full lifepath option. I went pretty much full random on this one, letting the dice and matrixes in the book reveal who my character is. Looking forward to creating some stories with them soon!

I can't really tell, but does this version of 2d20 not use d6s?

It does not. For Captain's Log, you'll just need 2d20 (or 3d20 since some of the tables are 3d20). Task resolution is all 2d20. No d6s or other dice needed.
