Concluding Thoughts

This is a good example of a bounty hunter style mission, it shows a good progression on gathering information and tracking the target.

It also has a excellent example of an asteroid base that can be used by pirates, rebels, smugglers and other people wanting to stay out of sight of the authorities. This could even be set in a populated system fairly easily as long as the technology they are using to enter and exit the base is fairly stealthy.

Overall I think this is a good side trek adventure that could be assigned to gain favour with another faction, or as a way of recovering stolen goods or data, or even a kidnapping of an important person.

Running the Adventure

1 session 10th February 2017

In this adventure you get to do some bounty hunting, though it was amusing to note that a possible ship they can acquire does not have any stats in this book. A minor oversight I am sure.

Highlights of the adventure were the continuing romance between the diplomat and every imperial officer who crosses her path. There was interesting discussions with the non stated NPC’s being far more interesting than those that did have stats. And it culminated with the bounty hunter of the group going guns blazing and killing another bounty hunter already on the hunt. So has repercussions to be felt down the line if he was to try and claim the bounty.
