Raiders of the Frontier¸ House Jade-London Besieged
Klappentext: Graced with abundant resources¸ Jad_London is envied as one of the Empire’s most powerful and wealthy provinces. Jadium¸ a metal useful in the contruction of starcraft¸ can only be found here. Jade-London also acts as a buffer between the Imperial core worlds and the Idorian Star Empire.
The Idorians are cruel¸ blood-thirsty humanoids determined to disrupt the Terran Empire. Infamous for their disrespect of lif anproperty¸ these pirate-radirs are believed to be responsible for recent strikes against remote Jadist mines. Plenty of Houses would enjoy undermining Jade=London’s materials industry. Raiders from the Frontier chronicles the conflict between House Jade-London and its various foes¸ including the terrifying Idorians. Provided are the history and structure of Jade-London¸ background on the Idorians¸ and 4 adventure scenarios which embroil you in the troubles of Jade-London. As a space adventurer you can: – Uncover a conspiracy to disrupt Jadist mining in the hazardous asteroids of the “Ring of Heaven.” – Transport twelve “special personnel” to a remote mining station. – Encounter a de-evolved culture which has sunk to violence and treachery. – Rescue the count’s son and heir from Idorian rebels.
Rushing homeward from a profitable ambush in Jade-London province¸ militants aboard the Idorian raider ‘WolfEagle’ bask in their new-found wealth. Suddenly¸ a planet on a near-collision course interrupts the celebration. Miscalculations have brought the plunder-laden craft within a half-power thrust of Zoura¸ a quarantined planet with strangely variable energy fields. The planet’s mystique has stimulated many a traveler’s curiosity – but never enough to risk one’s life for too close a view. The entire ‘WolfEagle’ crew would certainly breathe easier with Zoura¸ its flaring cosmic dust¸ and rumored dangers well behind them…
