Description

From publisher blurb:

The Solomons is an asteroid belt, a Wild West free zone, where multiple corporations, nation states and private groups can establish their own asteroid bases, using them for mining, trade, salvage … you name it. Whilst most of these factions have established colonies or bases on individual asteroids, a number of others have sunk their investment capital into huge orbital habitats. These vast rotating cylinders enclose an-Earth-like biosphere.

In this worldbook you will find write-ups of these rotating space colonies and the largest asteroids. Special consideration is given to Freeport, with its competing factions, each vying to take control of this Las Vegas-like cash cow. There are also hundreds of inhabited asteroids across the Solomons asteroid belt. The list is long: mining stations, corporate bases, trade hubs; salvage bases, top secret research facilities; refuelling stops, and even criminal hideouts!

Your missions here will be incredibly varied. Intra-system traffic is heavy, with shuttles and cargo transports making up the bulk of the work. Just remember, there may be law and order on the large rotating habitats, and on the biggest five of the asteroid colonies. Everywhere else: watch out! Out here, the distances, the remoteness and the opportunities provide the chance for profit. The corporations don’t dominate. And that’s rare. You can make your mark, make a fortune, just watch your back …

The book rounds out with Warpstone, a 12-page adventure set on an asteroid research station. There are lots out there – this one has a nasty surprise!!
