 October 26, 2011 - 9:49pm | 7. The player characters are hired for a covert mission; to steal a new type of scoutship rumored to be docked at a wealthy business tycoon's private moonbase. Star Law has enough evidence to be concerned that this individual is likely to sell his prototype to enemy agents, potentially placing the security of the entire frontier in jeopardy. Due to this tycoon's substantial political influence however, Star Law is unable to risk sending in their own agents to carry out the mission. The player characters must infiltrate the moonbase, steal the prototype, and return with the new ship intact. My SF website izz: http://ragnarr.webs.com |
 October 30, 2011 - 7:50pm | 8. Trouble at Thanos Research StationThe player characters are a Pan Galactic troubleshooting team. They are sent to the lower continent of the planet because an earthquake as hit and heavily damaged a small city where a PGC has a research facility. The facility's AI has locked-down the base but team will be provided with access codes to enter. They need to go down a few levels and recover several prototype items in four of the labs. Mission is straightforward except for survivors needing help, looters, military units not allowing entry and lots of damage blocking team above ground and survivors needing help, mad robots, another mega-corp's team trying to get the prototypes first and lots of damage blocking team below ground.Sounds like a great job but where did you say we had to go? |
 October 31, 2011 - 5:13am | Re:8 & rattraveller- this is a good one. I could write this in a day if a city map was available. Obstacles, problems and random encounters all suggested in the paragraph. Also what's good with this that the players will keep themselves on the rails for this adventure. Always pushing for the secret lab. The GM can allow for sandbox play but the scope of the sandbox involved is the city, which has defined limits. I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers! |

I'm in agreement. :-) I've started a document to flesh this adventure out. A forum topic is linked from the document; Rat, hope you don't mind I gave the location a name. Feel free to change. |
January 6, 2012 - 7:18am | 9. Here comes Grandpa Here's the link http://www.bbc.co.uk/nature/16424096 A Vrusk security company is working on a Captain Zik-Kit formula to further the war against the Sathar. Choose your path: 1. It works but is destroyed and only one super soldier is created but he needs help and the PCs are called in. 2. It works but also regresses the Vrusk to a more primitive form and reduced mental capacity and the super soldier goes on a rampage. 3. It works but an extreme corporate (facist) elite are using it to create a utopia or at least thier version of one in which everyone is forced into thier role and genetically manipulated to perform it whether they want to or not. 4. It doesn't work and kills the subject but the nut job working on it knows he can perfect it with just a few more trials and horribly disfigured and contorted bodies. 5. It doesn't work on everyone but is actually used as a food additive and every one out of 1000 change into a rampaging super soldier. 6. It works on all races but the Sathar have created it and are using it as thier latest bio-weapons. Let loose the Krakens. Sounds like a great job but where did you say we had to go? |
