Lords of the Expanse
Tired of mucking around on wet jungle planets? Sick of roasting on isolated desert worlds? Want a taste of the good life? Come to Tapani Sector and mix it up with the lords and ladies of the noble class. Forget dusty cantinas — yacht races, grand balls, and exclusive luxury resorts are your venue now.
As a knight or baron, immerse yourself in the mighty feuds of noble houses — and uncover their secrets. Cross lightfoils with the saber rakes, tangle with a shadowy assassin cult, or join a secret society. Foil Imperial plots to undermine the sector, or help them along and reap the rewards loyalty to the Emperor brings.
Or, if sitting in the lap of luxury isn't your thing, sniff out the hidden fringe ports and cut yourself a piece of the action. Take on the powerful Mining Guild. Smuggle bootleg bacta down the Shapani Bypass or steal data from the ivory halls of Mrlsst. If you get bored, establish your own Rebel cell and rock the sector.
The Lords of the Expanse Campaign Setting includes the following:
* Sector Guide: A player's guide to the sector, a gazetteer detailing 14 planets, plus new spaceships, droids, and equipment.
* Gamemaster Guide: Details on the houses of Tapani sector, the Freeworlds Region, and dozens of other organizations ranging from secret societies and mining companies to Rebel cells and bacta pirates.
* Campaign Guide: Advice and essays on running Expanse campaigns, and plenty of support material and adventure sites. Includes a full-length introductory adventure you can expand into a complete mini-campaign using the provided outlines.
* Character template booklet: Tapani knights, house troubleshooters, dueling hotspurs, and more. Eight new templates in all.
* Sector poster map: A full-color map of the sector, with a large-scale map of Tapani's capital city on the reverse side.
* 12 full-color character cards: Features short stats and a portrait illustration of key characters and ships of the sector.
