Cold and Alone

A Standard One Shot in the Starscape - PbtA system, led by RaynorFrejrûn.

"Space, the final frontier.  These are the voyages of the starship....”

You are crew members aboard a Nova-class science vessel.  While surveying a nearby nebula, your ship was hit by an unknown anomaly; the crew was ordered to abandon ship to the planet below.  With your crew scattered on this unhospitable planet, can you survive long enough to be rescued?  Or will be hunted down before you can escape?

This game will use the beta rules for Starscape, a new PbtA setting.  I will be using this to create a Star Trek analog.  

This game will be great if you like Star Trek, Mostly the TNG,DS9 and Voyager era.

We will build characters in session. Come prepared with ideas.

This game will be great for new players. 

The game runner has run this game a few times now.

Flight of the Rappaccini

A playtest game in the Starscape (PBtA) system, led by Ansel Burch.

The Rappaccini is a generation ship headed for Alpha Centauri. After a 4300 year journey at the speed of light, we are closing in on our destination. The hard part should be over but is it? Can we trust each other enough to complete this final phase?

This game will be great if you like Interstellar, The Green Book and Wall-E.

Players should build characters ahead. Playbooks will be provided from system beta materials.

This game will be great for new players.

This game will lean a little serious and will feature almost no combat.

This game will be hosted in the con’s Discord server in room #2 and spectators are welcome.

Playtest: Starscape (PbTA)

Playtest: Starscape (PbTA)

A game in the Starscape system from Golden Lasso Games, led by Ansel Burch.

Trust, like breathable air, is a precious and rare commodity in space. Starscape focuses on the ebb and flow of trust and the dynamic relationships that form between a crew as they explore the stars. It is ideal for stories that focus on a small number of main characters who agree on a central goal, such as in Star Trek, Farscape, or Firefly. Trust means life or death for a crew. Everyone must trust in each other, their ship, and even their own abilities to successfully navigate the vast emptiness of space.

This game will great if you like Star Trek, Farscape or Firefly.

We will build characters in session.

This game will be great for new players.

This game will likely balance comedy with seriousness and combat with role play.

This game will be hosted on the con’s Discord server in Room #1 and spectators are welcome.

CW: None
