In a previous series of adventures (The Darkstryder Campaign), the crew of the New Republic ship FarStar were pursuing Imperial Moff Sarne. This chase now leads them to the dangerous Kathol Rift.[1] This book contains five scenarios that bring this campaign arc to a close:[2]
- Harm's Way: The FarStar must visit an abandoned science outpost to replenish food supplies.
- Rogue Element: The ship faces mutiny.
- Waystation: A team is sent to explore a msyertious structure.
- Home: A passenger native to a planet the ship is visiting starts to change.
- Showdown: The ship responds to a distress call from a seemingly uninhabited planet.
Publication history
Game historian Shannon Appelcline, in the 2014 book Designers & Dragons: The '80s, noted that after West End Games published a second edition of the Star Wars role-playing game in 1992, "The Star Wars line was even enjoying something of a renaissance, with some innovative material going to press, notably the DarkStryder Campaign (1996), which took a darker look at the Star Wars universe."
