Orbital Blues Expanded

Afterburn. The Afterburn.  It’s a colloquialism that fills the gap for a lot of feelings. To live in the Afterburn is to open yourself up to all the joys, all the troubles, and all the dilemmas that the Frontier galaxy has to offer. 

Orbital Blues: Afterburn is the first sourcebook for Orbital Blues and is split into three sections: 

  • The Starship Manual: A fully-illustrated in-world spaceship brochure featuring a dozen classes of characterful spaceships, complete with adverts and full of game-useable lore.
  • The Storyteller’s Guide: A varied toolkit to help run games in the Outlaw Galaxy, with info on spaceship engineering, faster-than-light travel, system and plot generation, and alternate special rules for Warmth and Joy.
  • The Tennessee Five: A richly storied adventure made up of the planets of Anchorage IV, Ediston, Gallatin, Ohrid and Rothcoe. This huge sandbox contains all manner of heists and opportunities for enterprising Outlaws to make their mark.

Finally, an appendix gives rules for Android player characters, with a selection of Troubles and Gambits.
