Nexus Issue 3 (Magazine)
"The Greek heroes are … treacherous and self-sacrificing, generous and greedy, vengeful and just, humorous and gloomy — in other words human, and many times all too human."
Join us in 1982 when Nexus #3 was published. It focused on the "new" Heroes of Olympus roleplaying game, based on Greek mythology. Here you found an Aegyptian extension to the game, as well as a who's who on the Argo.
Of course there was the Star Fleet Universe section where Ray Olesen's scenario "The Wolf in Sheep's Clothing" was introduced. Richard Kerr also let people know how to change the Klingon D-7 and F-5 minis to the KR and KF5R.
There was an article on roleplaying, another with modifications for Moon Base Clavius, and a final one with four high-tech additions for Starfire. You'll find reviews of Man, Myth and Magic; Swashbucklers; and Pirates & Plunder. There was also a look at the "new" world of computer gaming, focusing on Starweb.

by Ray Olesen
In Y155 an Orion "Horde " (two Raiders, two Privateers, and a Marauder) attacked and destroyed Federation outpost K-4. This was a prelude to a massive smuggling operation in which weapons and contraband purchased from the Klingons were smuggled in to Federation space.
