In space, nobody can hear you scheme... Starguild is Space Opera Noir, where futuristic weapons and faster than light travel meet heartbreak, decadence and betrayal. Be brave naval officers or devious smugglers. Match wits and passion in high society or creep through ganglands in derelict cities. Explore dangerous jungles on the frontier worlds or engage as high tech mercenaries on future battlefields. But all this has a price. All this is underlaid with the essential noir setting details – cynical, ambitious, cruel; with dark undertones of emotional blackmail, sex and betrayal. Conflicting agendas and fragile trust. Secret deals and complex intrigues. The good guys do not always win. The good guys do not always live. The good guys are not always good guys. To support this atmosphere, the game treats social conflict - the ability to alter someones emotions and thinking - as equally important as fist and gun in enforcing your will. There are many ways that adventurers can achieve their objectives, including manipulating their friends and allies should the need arise. But beware - lest your head be turned by seduction, poisoned by distrust, swindled out of something important or taunted into an irrational act! Starguild contains everything you need to create characters, equip them and take them into any kind of social, dramatic or traditional conflict which includes atmospheric space combat where every crewman plays a part. Five complete adventures and more than 140 adventure seeds. This is the world of Starguild. What do you want to do?
