Starships & Spacemen (2e)
 |
Boldly explore the galaxy in search of alien civilizations! You take the role of a Military Officer¸ Technical Officer¸ Science Officer¸ or Enlisted Man in the Galactic Confederation. Travel in a starship under your command¸ on missions of first contact¸ rescue¸ exploration¸ and more in a galaxy full of hostile aliens. Try to maintain the tenuous truce with the militaristic Zangid¸ and fight the Videni who may look like your Tauran allies¸ but do not adhere to a philosophy of peace and logic.
Design alien humanoids with either "original series" or "next generation" sensibilites¸ or blend the two approaches! There are 100 forehead shapes that may be randomly rolled when a new alien race is encountered.
This book contains:
Eight player races
Three main classes¸ with several subclasses
Rules for spaceships and exploration
many alien creatures
...and more!
