Free Rain: An Introductory Module for Stars Without Number

ADD TO WISHLIST >

This is an introductory module for 3-5 1st level characters using the Revised Edition of the Stars Without Number ruleset.

The module is intended for two purposes: first, to bring a group of PCs together to start a campaign as well as provide them (if all goes well) with a ship, and second, to introduce the player and the GM to the mechanics of the Stars Without Number game.

To that end, this short introductory adventure features opportunites for skill checks, ground combat, hacking, starship navigation, spaceship combat, pursuit, and evasion. This will help players get a feel for the game. It also includes page referances and reminders to the GM.

It can also be played as a one-shot to “test the waters” of the SWN revised rules.

How do the players drive the ship if they don't make a character with Pilot skills?

Posted this as part of my review, but may also be an interesting discussion point:

After I ran this as-is once, I did do an overhaul of the scenario to allow for more of a node-based design (instead of Vershin -> Bar, players have three sorts of open options to either visit the bar, go to Shadi's residence immediately, or investigate the 'scene of the crime' which I changed to be the starting location as my players asked about it), and am playtesting the revisions now. I think it should make the transition to the bar a lot easier, with all three options leading directly to the facility, and allow players to have a bit more choice in how they approach the scenario. I also tightened up and adjusted the narrative a little bit with Manticore/Red Sun's relationship (mostly to account for how Vershin would be able to give the contact's information), and left the Free Rain itself loaded with about a million credits in pharms in the cargo hold. This leads to some interesting moral choices about the...See more

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.
