Rogue Stars is a character-based science fiction skirmish wargame, where players command crews of bounty hunters, space pirates, merchants, prospectors, smugglers, mercenary outfits, planetary police and other such shady factions from the fringes of galactic civilisation. Crews can vary in size, typically from four to six, and the character and crew creation systems allow for practically any concept to be built. Detailed environmental rules that include options for flora, fauna, gravity, dangerous terrain and atmosphere, and scenario design rules that ensure that missions are varied and demand adaptation and cunning on the parts of the combatants, make practically any encounter possible. Run contraband tech to rebel fighters on an ocean world while hunted by an alien kill-team or hunt down a research vessel and fight zero-gravity boarding actions in the cold depths of space – whatever you can imagine, you can do.

""I picked up a life form reading. Someone's alive over there."" With that short phrase, Captain Marcus Drake's partner, navigator Solomon Keys, will drastically alter the course of their lives. After picking up the signal of a distress beacon far into the galaxy, the two ex-smugglers decide to investigate the source-a large ship with a gaping hole in the side of the hull. Aboard the derelict spaceship floating millions of miles from the nearest civilization, a single woman-undercover Earth Force Agent Iaka Kazumi-survives in a sealed cryochamber. When Captain Drake wakes her, he inadvertently steps into a conspiracy that could destroy the Earth's government. The Omni Corporation from Earth has been engaged in the strictly forbidden practice of conducting medical experiments on sentient life forms. But Omni's scientists aren't working alone. Drake, Keys, and Kazumi soon find themselves on the run from enemies, new and old-all of whom want them silenced. Their only chance for survival takes the trio to a primitive jungle planet where they must convince the shaman of an alien tribe to trust them when every human encounter has caused the tribe nothing but destruction. Can the shaman survive long enough to bear witness to the atrocities threatening his people?

The thrilling adventure based on the acclaimed Star Trek: Picard TV series! Starfleet was everything for Cristóbal Rios…until one horrible, inexplicable day when it all went wrong. Aimless and adrift, he grasps at a chance for a future as an independent freighter captain in an area betrayed by the Federation, the border region with the former Romulan Empire. His greatest desire: to be left alone. But solitude isn’t in the cards for the captain of La Sirena, who falls into debt to a roving gang of hoodlums from a planet whose society is based on Prohibition-era Earth. Teamed against his will with Ledger, his conniving overseer, Rios begins an odyssey that brings him into conflict with outlaws and fortune seekers, with power brokers and relic hunters across the stars. Exotic loves and locales await—as well as dangers galore—and Rios learns the hard way that good crewmembers are hard to find, even when you can create your own. And while his meeting with Jean-Luc Picard is years away, Rios finds himself drawing on the Starfleet legend’s experiences when he discovers a mystery that began on one of the galaxy’s most important days…. ™, ®, & © 2021 CBS Studios, Inc.

Into a world behind mirrors where nothing is what it seems, there enter the most painstakingly unintelligible humans who do not know what to make of or do with their connections to these worlds, the Outlands and Far Outlands. Neither do the ones born with their own unique powers, in addition to their connections to these worlds—connections that happen to otherwise be mentally distanced—know initially what to make of or do with their connections. The black panthers, Incandescent, Anna, Pristine Crystal, the Caretaker of Star Syras, Neptune, Ezra Sterling, and the rest all play a part in making the virtually unprecedented and epic saga of The Far Outlands stories to cause one to simply marvel with all different and individual perspectives, for some of the characters you may not identify with while others you may feel empathetic toward or admire. The heroes’ and villains’ classifications, along with their virtues and otherwise liabilities—which some do all they can to maintain hidden or incognito from the general public—are something they must be and are later informed of, for they are not initially aware of them, some for the good and others for the worst. Eventually they will make their own minds to either use or even misuse such traits. Some of them have very abstract origins while others have very animatedly realistic origins, natures, and dispositions of which to tell and even to relate or fear. These are their stories and, additionally, my pervasive and reoccurring inspirations which I put on paper in order to deal with them better, even single-handedly. These writings, I both adore for their literary value and artfulness and abhor for their tormenting value and tragic legacy, for some of them express feelings I cannot take back after I have related or presented them.
