Like the user Merxiless, I like difference between TL of planet and starport, as it often forces me to create more creative explanations and make planets more memorable. Let me just throw out some ideas: Say the starport is type B and planet's TL is around 6-7. This could be either in Imperium...

Sure. May we interest you with our alternative offer of only 5% down; 1% interest rate and payable over fifty years?! This offer comes with extra safety conditions both for the bank and esteemed yourself: 95% insurance (payable by borrower); credit by guarantee by Imperial megacorporation...

Thank you both for answers. Yes, I meant that ship is on ground, characters have some cutting tools (or ship repair drones) and they want to carry away a weapon from downed ship.

Hi, So I am running a certain pirate campaign and there was a question that I wanted to listed to wisdom of other referees. Player character want to dismantle certain ship parts, for example, weapons from turrets. Assuming the ship is down and not movable to any shipyard - what are your ideas...

Hi, I want to hijack this thread which already contains spoilers to ask for more spoilerly advice for GMing this adventure: There should be four particle beam firing solutions found. However, it appears to me that there are 5 - 4 in message globes and one in Noricum. Is it correct? Or is the...

Thanks for reply

Hi everyone, I have kind of technical question regarding technology: do small radios work fine as receivers between starships. Case in point: Some PCs are on their own ship (which obviously can be strong radio signal transmitter), some PCs are on other ship and would like to hide/not announce...

Thank you everyone for your opinions. I gather and agree (and will use) that there are significant reasonable obstacles of taking software out of the ship and using it elsewhere. But that's installed software. From what I gather, if the PCs actual get their hands on "Installer" software (for...

Search function didn't help me with this question that should have appeared in front of other Referees... What should I do with software piracy?! Software is expensive. I have got feelings that ships in ports are not searched through and through as well as latency would discourage checking ship...

So, how does this week look like for part8?

Another suggestion (similar to one already posted) - let everyone roll up two characters and choose one they like. The other one will be a NPC :). So they have invested also in crating NPC; and they have chosen a character to play (so they are not too negative about blaming luck... choice has...

I want Pirates of Drinax remaining adventures!!! And I can't believe we went to third page without such wish :)

As one esteemed author said something close to "those things that are highly improbable to happen with odds of one in ten million; in real life these happen nine times out of ten" :)

Thank you both. So simple and precise jumping...

Hi, everyone, I can't find information about how you know where you arrive after Jumping. On page 141 of rulebook it says: When the ship exits Jump space after an accurate Jump, it tends to arrive close to the target world, but outside or on the verge of the hundred-diameter limit. and here...
