Scrappers: the Molucca Enigma
 |
With the purification of cosmic fuel¸ exploration and colonization of deep space became easy and profitable. Spaceships which had once bankrupted entire nations were used up and discarded when their drives failed. The graveyard of space gave rise to a new class of spaceman. These hardy adventurers saw the many drifting space hulks as a ready source of salvage¸ and their removal as a steady source of employment. They have become known as
The Molucca Enigma is a completely self-contained rule set and adventure path. Your characters plunge right into the action when a derelict spaceship shows up in the Molucca System. Your team of Scrappers is on retainer with Molucca Prime just so you can clean up this kind of junk. Problem is¸ you're not the only team of salvage experts bidding for the job. Get to the drifting space hulk and find out if it needs to be towed to the scrap yard or dropped into the sun. But don't take too long¸ other scrappers are trying to get their bid in first¸ and there's something about this particular wreck that makes your space senses go all squirrelly...
Scrappers takes you back to the future of the 1950s¸ when daring and cleverness carried the day¸ every planet had a breatheable atmosphere¸ and every spacesuit had a fishbowl for a helmet.
The Molucca Enigma will continue in episode 2¸ The Molucca Entrapment¸ and race to an exciting conclusion in episode 3¸ The Molucca Exigency.
Smoking rockets¸ scrappers! Stand by to raise ship!
