"If you find any Klingons, don’t go heroic on me. Keep that ship intact until you get her overhauled. Don’t run; the Klingons will smell blood and hunt you down. Instead, show a good front and hope they’ll take the hint and leave."
It was 1985 and Nexus #11 had just been released. This issue focused on the Star Fleet Universe, Starfire, Musketeers, and History of the Second World War.
The Star Fleet Universe section started with "First Command," which was about Lieutenant Commander Scofield's first command, an aging light cruiser being sent in for refits. There was a page each of Term Papers and The Academy, along with another page to explain why certain things were the way they were. Gorn ship names were the subject of the Shipyard Report. There was a scenario that followed the setup from the fiction and a campaign (The Bargantine Campaign). Finally, there was also the inevitable (at the time) collection of errata.
Starfire had a good number of articles. There are articles on the Corsairs of Tangri, including their military services and a timeline. There was both fiction and a scenario. Also included were some new systems.
There was an article on the behind-the-scenes development of History of the Second World War and a scenario (The Finnish War) for it. Musketeers had a scenario (The Brawl) and the story, “Milady’s Ghost Sleeps Poorly” and accompanying scenarios for it. Battlewagon had the Surigao Straits scenario. Finally, there was an article for variants of games produced by People’s War Games of Oakland, California.
