Re: Galactic Federation

 

I know at least a few people who are jonesing for more details about the Roin'esh, particularly a package deal. They would seem to make a fine Skrull Empire analogue (and who can't use malevolent alien shapeshifters), and GF is probably the only place we'll find out anything about them. :(

 

(Unless Steve Long chooses to include them in Champions Beyond.)

Wouldn't it just be the Empire with more boring politics?
Quite the opposite. I like to say that Terran Empire is like playing Star Wars in the Star Trek universe' date=' while [i']Galactic Federation[/i] would be more like Star Trek in the Star Wars universe -- lots of high-flying adventure with a lot less of the political intrigue going on.

 

Also, as Lord Liaden mentioned, there's the Roin'esh to contend with, as well as the invasion of the Nibu Gemani.

While they do not deal at all with the Roin'esh nor the invasion of the Nibu Gemani, there are Star Trek Hero files at:

including full supplements (one based on the old FASA RPG and one dealing with life in the period of Next Generation and Deep Space Nine) and some Hero Designer files too.....definatly worth a gander, IMNSHO. :D Just modify a few species names, tweak a few events....and poof it's no longer the United Federation of Planets, it's the Galactic Federation....Also, if memory serves, there is some adaptable stuff available in Galactic Champions too....

I didn't mean there would be more politics in the Federation but that the politics in the Federation would be more boring.

Ah... well, I guess if you want to play politics and intrigue in a Star Hero game, you want the Empire. If you just want high-flying adventure (with, I hope, a slight pulpish flavor), you want the Federation.
