Beta Quadrant Sourcebook (STA)
"You judge yourselves against the pitiful adversaries you've encountered so far: the Romulans, the Klingons … they're nothing compared to what's waiting."
The Beta Quadrant sourcebook provides Gamemasters and Players with a wealth of source material about the galaxy of Star Trek. Focused on the Beta Quadrant, this 128 page hardback sourcebook contains:
- Information on the Federation's presence in the Beta Quadrant, including the homeworlds of Andoria, Earth, and Vulcan.
- Material about the Klingon Empire and its history, including information on its core words of Qo'noS, Boreth, Khitomer, and Rura Penthe.
- Information from the Romulan Star Empire on their history and politics, and information about their worlds Romulus and Remus.
- A host of new Federation species to choose from during character creation, including Benzites, Bolians, Efrosians, and Klingons.
- A selection of alien starships, from the Klingon Empire, Romulan Star Empire, Gorn Hegemony, Orion Syndicate, and civilian craft.
- Guidance for the Gamemaster on running missions and continuing voyages in the Beta Quadrant, with a selection of new Non-Player Characters to enhance encounters.
