Hey everyone, Frog overlord here.
Starships is back and in a big way! With over 150 pages of unique material its one you don't want to miss out on. This campaign is split into three sections:
A multi-part, solo play sci-fi franchise with over 12 publications, explore the vast depths of space and face alien foes. We have released various expansions including Character options which delves into a few of the different alien races with complete backstories and unique equipment, check out our website to explore our back catalogue.
Starships Scavengers: The Case of the Asteroid Blues
This is the 8th adventure we've produced but this things are a little different this time. Rather then exploring a single location this adventure is more story based and spans over 4 acts each having their own unique location; as this is running alongside our system map we wanted to show off the overall Starships solar system that you're currently in but who knows for how long...
Act 1 - This case is strictly off the books and because of that, it won't be as easy as simply questioning suspects. You must break into the missing womans apartment block, blast or sneak past the robo droids and investigate the area for any clues.
Act 2 - You find yourself in a decommissioned research laboratory that seems to be cleared out but come to think of it there was no record of specimen transport... oh well your a hard boiled investigator I'm sure you can handle yourself.
Act 3 - A smuggler Starship you'd think would be less cramped. Well it probably would be less so if the 'cargo' hadn't broken loose.
Act 4 - Are you looking for a relaxing vacation? Or perhaps a way to blow of some steam? Then visit the Asteroid Blues and gamble some creds away whilst drinking anything that'll find in a nice cold glass.
Heinlein System map
Over the next couple weeks I'll reveal more specifics but it's a project we've been working on over the past year and finally we're ready to release it into the wild! We wanted to expand the Starship universe and have quietly been building a background throughout our adventures but this system guide will give you specific detail on the system including breakdowns of the planets, at the moment there are over 23 planets/4 other secret locations (Check out our kickstarter to know more)
Each Planet has its own:
Our In universe newspaper, as I keep saying every update we shouldn't play updates, this is one of our best. This issue features brand new neutral equipment that is not specific to any race or species which includes a brand new bullet type - Phantom Casings...
I will say these are works in progress and have not yet been edited so any mistakes will be fixed!
That's all for now but if you want to check out our kickstarter page and any other previous Starships they can be found in the 'creator' section on kickstarter.
Until next time, we'll see you on the battlefield.
