Tales from Deep Space: Perils on the Imperial Frontier

Tales from Deep Space is a Spacemaster 2nd Edition adventure module.

Somewhere out there, in a distant and unsurveyed Sector, lurks a cold and mysterious presence. Amongst the icy remains of his last helpless victims, he hides in the frozen hold of a derelict vessel. He waits and he is hungry…. Time passes, and eventually something comes along. More frail human beings have arrived. He stirs from his dormant state into alertness-food is here.

TALES FROM DEEP SPACE includes five ready-to-run adventures, twelve pre-designed characters, detailed campaign background information, and a new Insystem Encounter Chart.

From the mighty core Provinces of the Terran Empire to the alien and hostile reaches of the Frontier, space holds countless adventures for those bold enough to venture into the unknown. These and other adventures await you as you sail amongst the stars in DEEP SPACE:

  • An alien force attacks a vital orbital laboratory, and the scientists must be rescued.
  • On a routine Planetary and Racial Survey in the Frontier, you encounter a Xeno-sentient race with potentially devastating power.
  • In an unsurveyed Sector, an undamaged and apparently lifeless vessel floats abandoned. Is it a fortune in salvage or the legendary Ghost Ship?

YOUR adventures will form the cosmic lore of the Empire-stories repeated and embellished for time eternal, in every Starport and Cantina throughout the Human Sphere.
