This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Ah, the fun of college life. Here we see a typical group of students enjoying time away from classes at Lancaster University located in the heart of the city of Baker on Cascadia (Cascadia 0705).

What did your character do in college? The Clement Sector Player's Guide can help you determine that and much more about your character's past. The Clement Sector Player's Guide will be available in PDF on May 15.

Here we see humans and uplifted gorillas playing Zero Ball.  Zero Ball is a variation of American rules football played in a controlled low gravity chamber.  It is the favorite sport on Monroe (Cascadia 0107) and is popular on several worlds in the Cascadia and Hub subsectors.

The Clement Sector Player's Guide includes several new career tracks including the Sports track.  The Clement Sector Player's Guide will be available as a PDF on May 15.

Here we see the USS Shannon, a Trent-class destroyer, traveling with the USS Alfred Thayer Mahan which is a far newer Farragut-class destroyer.  The Trent-class destroyer is the subject of the first installment in our newest series, the Historical Ships of Clement Sector, which will look back at older vessels in our setting's history.

Historical Ships of Clement Sector 1: Trent-class Destroyer will be available in PDF on June 12.

"Mr. Harmer, light up the drive. It's time to ride fire!" Captain Jacinda Loughton, USS Caliban

Here we see the USS Caliban operating under thrust.  USS Caliban was the second Trent-class destroyer and was commissioned in 2187.  It served in Earth Sector for many years. After The Conduit was opened, USS Caliban served as the flagship for the fleet of smaller exploration vessels tasked by the United States Space Navy to explore Clement Sector.

Historical Ships of Clement Sector 1: Trent-class Destroyer will be available in PDF from Gypsy Knights Games on June 12.

Here we have a picture of USS Leary firing her portside weapons. USS Leary was the sixth Trent-class destroyer commissioned by the United States Space Navy in 2190. The vessel served in Earth Sector for several years before being brought over to Clement Sector as part of the 6th Space Fleet operating from Sophronius (Hub 0408).

In 2250, the vessel was sold to the independent colony of Franklin (Franklin 0506) where it served as part of the Franklin Space Defense Navy. It remains in the Franklin system as part of the Adams-Roberts Museum of Space Travel.

Historical Ships of Clement Sector 1: Trent-class Destroyer will be available in PDF from Gypsy Knights Games on June 12.

In this picture from 2330, we see USS Shannon approaching Sophronius (Hub 0405).  The picture also shows the orbital city of Griffith which was destroyed by the terrorist group Sic Semper Tyrannis in 2332.  USS Shannon is now used as a training vessel by the Boone Space Defense Force (Sequoyah 0305).

The story of USS Shannon is included along with full deckplans, a detailed description of the Trent-class destroyers and their history and more beautiful art provided by Bradley Warnes and Ian Stead.  And, to top it off, writer Michael Johnson also provides an appendix detailing reaction drive missiles to be used in conjunction with The Anderson and Felix Guide to Naval Architecture.

Historical Ships of Clement Sector 1: Trent-class Destroyer will be available in PDF from Gypsy Knights Games on June 12.
