I have been going through my old hand written notes and trying to transcribe them to this web site. Included in these are – Adventures for the main campaign I ran way back when, just after I graduated college. I wrote them in in classic GDW/Traveller BASIC/PUSH/PULL/GIMMICK/ENIGMA format. I highly recommend writing your adventures in…
BASICS PCs are sent as general labor/security on an orbital survey mission to a remote planet in the Vextross system, called Vex III. It is a prospect for mining and colonization. They will orbit the planet, drop survey satellites and scan for anything interesting. They goal is to make sure no civilization already exists on…
I envisioned a creature to be an empathic assassin and then turned the pages of the Bestiary. Creature like the penanggalan, the Thin Man, or the Soul Harvester inspired me to create this creature. Once implanted into a host, the creature can use the physiology of the host to shape change into any version of that particular species.
Alamane was a cool bad guy that I used to motivate the characters for several linked adventures. This describes the evolution of Alamane through the various adventures. Alamane was born during the peak of the Terran Empire [Terran Expanse] on planet called Sparta. Alamane eventually grew into a very powerful executive of the corporation that…
My Second Star Frontiers campaign inspired by Battletech, the future Earth in Terminator, some concepts from the movie Alien Nation
These encounter tables are not very detailed (and the details I did write down did not make much sense). I salvaged what I could and made up the rest. I had planned to do “Special” encounter tables but never got around to it. I think the Specials were probably either plot specific required encounters or…
After buying the box set for Battletech, I wanted to integrate that somehow with an idea I was forming for Star Frontiers (see Battletech Conversion to SF). Stealing the concepts from movies like Alien Nation and Terminator, I created Polomegan, a shared world torn by war. All this combined into an idea for a campaign. The…
This is an unfinished set of advanced robotics rules I started writing late in my journey with Star Frontiers. I never really got finished with them but there may be some value in them. These were written with Zebulons Guide rules in mind. WHAT IS A ROBOT Robots are usually a difficult thing to define…
At one point, I was thinking of expanding beyond the “Pure Strain Human” of Star Frontiers and develop transhuman rules. For instance, it is said that the human today (21st Century) uses only 10% of their brain. What if in the Frontier, they found ways to expand that and it mean more than just mentalist…
This is something I wrote in trying to integrate the Frontier into the [Sovereignty] setting. This does not really jive to the new timeline where I replaced the Terran Empire with my own Terran Expanse, however. When I had to re-write things to take out all references to a certain RPG, things began to really…
