A Stargrave supplement of exploration and adventure, full of strange and wonderful alien worlds, species, and technologies.

Just beyond the rim of what was once ‘civilized space’ lies the vast, colourful expanse of the Crokoan Nebula. Seeking their fortunes, bold independent crews press deep into this largely unexplored sector. But the Ravaged Galaxy is a dangerous place, and the threats that crews face are not limited to those found on a planet’s surface. In fact, more independent crews meet their ends in the dark void of space than are wiped out in gunfights. Black holes, asteroid fields, and even the legendary space kraken can all destroy a ship and its crew. It takes a deft hand on the controls, a sharp eye on navigation, and a bit of wizardry with the engines to fly between the stars.

This supplement for­ Stargrave focuses on the ships that serve as the crews’ transports, strategic headquarters, and homes, including new upgrades, a damage system, and rules for crew assignments such as piloting, gunnery, and navigation. New powers, soldiers, technology, and backgrounds for captains and first mates help reinforce crews, while rules for space encounters – dangerous, interesting, and potentially profitable incidents – and five new scenarios bring them face to face with strange alien species and other terrifying dangers in weird and wonderful locations, from unexplored planets to the depths of space.­

A Stargrave supplement of exploration and adventure, full of strange and wonderful alien worlds, species, and technologies.
Brings a real element of exploration to games of Stargrave, capturing some of the feel of Star Trek, Star Trek: The Next Generation, and Star Trek: Voyager.
In a galaxy torn apart by the Last War, vast pirate fleets roam from system to system, robbing, extorting, and enslaving. Attempts to organize resistance, or to establish authority over any territory larger than a city, are quickly and brutally crushed. In this dark time, the only way to survive is to be inconspicuous and hope to be overlooked. Amidst this chaos, however, thousands of independent operators – smugglers, relic hunters, freedom fighters, and mercenaries – roam the dead stars in small ships, scratching out a living anyway they can. In Stargrave, a skirmish wargame based on the Frostgrave system, players take on the role of one of these independent operators. With a trusted lieutenant and a crew of specialists, they will engage in a variety of missions, from the recovery or theft of lost technology to the infiltration or sabotage of fortified outposts – all under the noses of the pirate fleets.
