About the adventure
This game takes place before the Dominion War, and is designed as a pick-up, one-shot session suitable to experienced and beginner players. Roleplaying is encouraged to find the best solutions possible to the challenges faced. Knowledge of the setting is welcome, but nothing past having seen some of the Star Trek shows is required. Social and technical skills will be very helpful to finish the adventure. Depending on the decisions made by the players and their luck with the dice, there are opportunities for some combat. Characters are pre-generated, and of starting level, except one that is a highly experienced officer. Join me for a game of exploring strange new worlds!

What MaGnUs brings to the table
With my vast knowledge of the Star Trek universe, I providee a deep, immersive experience, not by drowning you in lore, but by making the game feel like you're in one of the franchise's shows. Rule of cool is one of the most important rules to me, because we're here to have fun.
Homebrew rules
Over the years, I have adapted the D6 system (with the second edition, revised and expanded) to fit my needs and that of my players. The modifications are too many (but not that radical) to list here, but I'd be happy to go into detail if you're familiar with the rules-as-written. The most important changes I've made are to how multiple actions are declared and penalized in combat.
