Frontier Explorer 12 cover imageHello Explorers!

Issue 12 of the Frontier Explorer is now available. You can get a copy at the Frontier Explorer website or on DriveThruRPG. This issue is all about psionics. We have a variety of articles on mentalist powers, equipment, creatures, and a new alien race by Laura Mumma, an author making her debut contribution to the magazine. I think you'll really enjoy the race she's invented.

In addition to the mentalism articles there are a variety of optional rules articles covering spaceship construction and critical successes and failures. Additionally we have an adventure set on Clarion, a short review of another old sci-fi RPG, our usual comics, and an analysis of what Gandalf the Gray would look like in the Star Frontiers setting.

The article list for this issue is:

  • Zebulon’s Guide to the Rim
  • An Intelligent Alien Invasion
  • Thought Police
  • Battle for the Mind
  • Thought Police Archetype
  • Dr Mento’s Psychic Equipment
  • Psirens: Na’dezh’da
  • An SP on Hakosoar
  • Titan Rising: 2299
  • New Engine Requirements for Knight Hawks Ship Construction
  • Condition Critical
  • Critical Hits in Star Frontiers
  • The Frogg That Kissed the Prince
  • Gandalf was a Level Six Technician and a Dralasite
  • Universe RPG
  • Grymz Guide Comic

We hope you enjoy this issue and as always, keep exploring!

Actually, I'm hoping that someone, after reading the review of Universe RPG might prepare a good scan of the map and make it available on this site.

I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers!

Not sure about what the issue is but use this link and click on the gold button that says submit new content.

Was the site down temporarily?

Nice issue.  I own a copy of Universe (the paperback version, not the box - no map).

I now own a copy with the map, I'll have to schedule a day to futz with the scanner and make a copy of it but I'll likely need a bottle or two of wine on hand as the scanner software can drive one to drink!

Yep, finally got it on ebay. but like I said just playing with the scanner is such a pain. I need to schedule time and make sure there is wine on hand.
