#Star trek adventures art series
The logos and badges of the Federation, Klingons and Romulans stand out, which are accompanied by their appropriate statement that allow us get into context to what is shown in images.Īlso of particular interest is the detail of Starfleet ranks, which describe the badges used in the 23rd century, where the original series is set, as well as the ranks in the 24th century, where the rulebook places the reader, who is referred to as a true captain of the Federation from the start. Graphics with detailed sections of spacecraft and space stations adorn the Star Trek Adventures manual. The first chapters have very interesting illustrations that manage to maintain reader’s interest. Even, the design and distribution emulate the consoles of the Starfleet, with the intention of immersing the reader in the environment even long before being at the table playing. The titles are in lilac or orange color, within the color palette of the interfaces of the Star Trek universe, specifically the series set in the 24th century, such as Next Generation or Deep Space Nine. It is printed in bright black, while the letters are white, creating contrast and ease of reading.
The pages of the book are made of high quality glossy paper.
The colors are vibrant and eye-catching, with high contrast and very appropriate for the Trek universe. When we open the rulebook, a detailed map of the Alpha Quadrant awaits us, which will delight even the most veteran trekker. The finishing of the paste is smooth satin, of high quality and elegance. The rulebook is hardcover, with an original illustration, more or less in three dimensions. The rulebook of Star Trek Adventures is one of the most beautiful rulebooks I have seen, comparable with titles of high importance to RPG players like Shadowrun 5e, which is, aesthetically, my favorite RPG. Likewise, the game systems are becoming increasingly imaginative and diverse, although some games end up being the “reinvention of the wheel” and do not bring anything new or, more importantly, something fun to the table of the fans of pen and paper RPGs, but this is not the case of this game.
