Pre-Orders are Open for ‘Star Trek Adventures 2nd Edition’
The second edition of the hit Star Trek RPG, Star Trek Adventures, opens up pre-orders today! Here’s what we know.
After a seven-year mission to explore space, the final frontier, Modiphius announced a new edition for Star Trek Adventures, the Star Trek RPG. That was earlier this year.
Now, the new edition looms closer at hand, with pre-orders opening today. Of course, this is a very long pre-order period since shipping isn’t expected until August of this year. But, all things considered, there have been longer waits for worse. The new edition promises to expand gameplay and refine character options.
It’s secretly an update to Modiphius’ 2d20 engine. Though, of course, a lot of the Trek-specific mechanics are getting some love. Shipbuilding (like, the starship kind, not the fanfiction kind, but hey, you never know) and long-term research, specifically, are called out in the update.
Star Trek Adventures 2nd Edition Is Coming
With the opening of the pre-order page, we get a better glimpse into what the book holds in store. For this one, I’m most excited to see the non-Federation player options. In the announcement, Modiphius teased Klingon and Romulan options, but it goes even deeper, even opening up Cardassians so you can live out your fantasy of being a humble tailor, hopelessly infatuated with Star Trek’s sexiest doctor.
Alongside these new options, the book will provide new starships and even new eras to play in, including both Strange New Worlds and Prodigy.
