The Science Fiction Companion can handle ANY type of sci-fi setting, and to show it off, we’ve created a set of iconic adventures inspired by some of our favorite genres.
In this hardcover book, you’ll find:
The Captain is Dead: An experimental spaceship makes a historic dive into a gas giant’s upper atmosphere. Some very unwelcome visitors prove that unexpected life can exist in such a hazardous place, and now the claustrophobic halls are deadlier than ever. With catastrophes erupting everywhere, key crew members dead, and any kind of help far out of reach, can the remaining crew survive? Horror and desperation in a grimy near-future, written by Donald Schepis (Tales of the Doom Guard, ETU: Study Abroad). (Inspired by films like Aliens.)
Emergency Evac: Red’s Raptors are a hardened group of mercenaries who risk life and limb piloting their gigantic war-walkers in the devastated battlefields of the future, but this is no ordinary mission. With their ship destroyed in a sneak attack, the band must face the terrifying creatures infesting an alien world and rivals bent on their destruction with only their wits, grit, and powerful war-machines to aid them. A tale of futuristic military survival by JM DeFoggi (Savage Universe, The Return of Dr. Destruction). Inspired by games like Battletech.)
Queen’s Gambit: A daring crew of noble do-gooders have one chance to cripple the corrupt Star Syndicate. One of the powerful crime-lords of the syndicate has fallen, and his lieutenants are scrambling to seize as much of his wealth and power as they can. One of them has loaded the freighter Rogue Queen with precious loot, and it’s up to the heroes to capture that ship and turn those riches against the syndicate before it’s too late! A swashbuckling space-opera by John Stevens (RIFTs for Savage Worlds, Terror on the Dark Frontier). (Inspired by films like Star Wars.)
