2300 AD

On 13 February, 2302, four men found themselves in a small unmarked office in the heavily shielded business district of the city of Rimview on the world of Crater in the Henry’s Star System in the French Arm.  They were being hired to recover a package on Beta Canum Venaticorum-4, under imminent attack by the Kafers.  It would be their job to get in, get the package, and get out before the Kafers invaded the world.

Louis LeBeau had been a field agent for over 20 years before entering the ground military for another decade.  Aker Stinson Malworth had been a pirate and smuggler most of his life.  Both were from Xi Ursae Majoris, a planet colonized by Trilon Corporation, a multinational corporation originating in the 2100s.  Didier LaDuc was a French journalist well-known in the French arm for his writing and imaging of events.  He was a native of the French outpost of Davout in the American arm.  Rolo Burke was also French and had been in the space military for 10 years before opting out.  He hailed from one of the satellites of the Queen Alice’s Star colony of Beowulf.

On June 14, 2010, I ran 2300 AD as a one-shot to test out the game for a review in Knights of the Dinner Table Magazine.  My players were Jeff, RJ, Derrick, and Ryan.  The scenario was “Diamonds From Premiere” by Andrew Slack from Challenge Magazine #66.  Unfortunately, I also recorded the character creation, which goes on for some time.  If you want to skip it and get right to the scenario, it starts around the one hour mark.
