The second edition for the popular Star Trek Adventures RPG is getting an updated start set:
The Starter Set for the second edition of the Star Trek™ roleplaying game, Star Trek Adventures, is now available from Modiphius Entertainment.
This Starter Set contains everything players need to begin their journey into the final frontier, including an epic campaign of three linked missions designed to challenge a brave crew of 3–7 player characters.
Travel to the edges of known space, to colonies in need, to the borders of neighboring galactic powers, or into the eye of interstellar phenomena. Explore strange new worlds, encounter fantastical alien life-forms, and engage in dramatic adventures in a detailed and immersive Galaxy!
The Star Trek Adventures Second Edition Starter Set includes:
RULES BOOKLET: A 48-page booklet providing an overview of the 2d20 game system adapted for Star Trek Adventures, for use with the included campaign.
CAMPAIGN BOOKLET: A 60-page booklet containing the epic, three-part campaign “Infinite Combinations,” which guides you through the rules as you play so you can begin exploring the Galaxy straight out of the box.
SHIP SHEET and CHARACTER SHEETS: A statistics sheet for the Constitution-class U.S.S. Challenger and seven player character sheets, with rules references on the back of each sheet.
REFERENCE SHEETS: Four double-sided rules reference sheets.
DICE: Five twenty-sided dice (d20s) in a unique color only available in this Starter Set.
TOKENS: Six Momentum tokens for each of six different civilizations (i.e., 36 total Momentum tokens), 36 Threat tokens on the reverse side of the Momentum tokens, and 9 Determination tokens.
Project Manager Jim Johnson said: “One of our key goals for second edition was to make the game accessible to new players, not just of Star Trek Adventures but of RPGs in general. I challenged the Starter Set campaign writers to think about what new gamemasters and new players might need to know as they play the game, and we wrote as much of that advice as possible into the campaign booklet. I hope you’ll be able to pick up the box, open it up, hand out characters, and then jump right into the first adventure and cooperatively tell a fun, evocative Star Trek story together. This one’s got it all–a dramatic rescue of citizens in peril, alien life-forms to investigate, and a science-fiction mystery to dig into and solve.”
The second edition of the game opens up the possibility for players to step outside the Starfleet-focused gameplay and tell stories with the well-known species of the Star Trek universe, including the Klingon and Romulan Empires, in addition to others present across the franchise. With the addition of Strange New Worlds to the license, the new edition will feature art themed around the popular new series.
