After detecting a strange signal from a massive alien vessel shouldering its way through regulated trade routes, your away team transports over and makes their way to a sealed hatch. Communications are left unanswered and scans are inconclusive. The hatch begins to cycle open.

 

Who, or what, does your intrepid crew encounter?

 

Modiphius Entertainment is proud to announce the next print + digital supplement for the Star Trek™ Adventures second edition roleplaying game, the Allies and Adversaries Sourcebook!

 

For 60 years, Star Trek has presented hundreds of beings and creatures as friends, foes, or challenges for main and supporting characters. The sheer variety of life-forms is a clear example of Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations (IDIC) and plays a key role in Star Trek’s storytelling themes. 

 

The Allies and Adversaries Sourcebook enables Star Trek Adventures gamemasters to learn more about many beings present in the Star Trek universe and bring them to life in missions and campaigns. The sourcebook contains:  

• Guidance on NPCs and their uses, which expands on the content found in the core rulebook. As well as advice on using NPCs as allies, including ideas on balancing conflicts and encounters to give your crew challenging and satisfying experiences.
• Information on many factions, including the Borg Collective, the Breen, the Cardassian Union, the Dominion, the Gorn Hegemony, the Orion Syndicate, the Klingon Empire, the Romulan Star Empire, the Tholians, and much more.
• Game statistics for dozens of Minor, Notable, and Major NPCs among the various species and factions covered in this sourcebook.
• Game statistics for a selection of creatures found throughout the Star Trek universe, as well as rules and guidance on how to create your own original creatures for use in your missions and campaigns.

 

The contents of this sourcebook can be used with any edition of Star Trek Adventures as well as Captain’s Log, with slight modifications to the statistics blocks to fit whichever version of the game you are playing. Enhance the stories you tell by yourself or with your friends with the wealth of information contained in this sourcebook.

 

In the coming weeks, you can look forward to new blog posts previewing the contents of the book. What species are you hoping to see included? Which friends and foes are you looking to add to your adventures and campaigns? What kinds of original aliens and creatures are you hoping to build? Share your ideas and insights with your fellow Star Trek fans at the official Modiphius Discord!
