IST Expansion – Hornet F12b Spaceship

Price range: £1.99 through £3.99

Greetings Galactic Citizens,

In this expansion for Intergalactic Space Traders you have a freighter known as the HORNET F12b, a large ship with a decent sized hold. It is reliable and has 4 upgrade slots. Upgrades can be bought at Shipyards and Space Traders. You also keep track of your trade goods in your cargo hold. The HORNET F12b comes fitted with advanced asteroid mining equipment, which allows for a chance of a bonus mining find when drilling.
This manual details your ship statistics and captain’s details. Each type of ship has its own manual, with a number of sections to fill in. They are also unique to each ship. When you buy a better ship transfer your Captain’s Log details and any other stats that are separate from the ship. See the Shipyard for further details on purchasing ships.

This manual is used when you enter a star system. You will scan the system, find out what’s in your way and navigate to the Space Port. Whenever you enter a star system, even if you have been there before, you will be required to complete an ‘Entering the Star System’ table. This is not a starting ship so you should already have stats to transfer. Keep a record of the goods you have in your Cargo Hold. Your hold has a capacity limit. If you fill it and find extra goods you can choose what you leave behind, but you cannot exceed the Hold Capacity.

This paperback book is an A6 publication. You will need the core rules in order to play this expansion.

Description

This spaceship expansion is for Intergalactic Space Traders, a portable solo game designed in a compact pocket-sized format. The original game draws inspiration from the classic sci-fi title Frontier: Elite II, which combined exploration, trade, and open-ended adventure. Intergalactic Space Traders continues that tradition by bringing the same style of gameplay into a streamlined portable experience.

You command the Hornet F12b Spaceship, a dependable freighter with a large cargo hold and four upgrade slots. You can purchase upgrades at shipyards and space traders throughout the galaxy. The ship also includes advanced asteroid-mining equipment that gives you a chance to uncover bonus resources while drilling. You must carefully manage the trade goods stored in your cargo hold, since the hold has a strict capacity limit. If you discover additional goods after reaching capacity, you must decide which cargo to leave behind because you cannot exceed the ship’s storage limit.

Use this manual whenever you enter a star system. You will scan the system, identify any hazards or obstacles, and navigate your way to the spaceport. Every visit to a star system requires you to complete the “Entering the Star System” table, even if you have travelled there before. Since this expansion does not include a starting ship, you should already have character and ship statistics ready to transfer into play.
