Sargon And Beyond is Continuing Mission’s Living Campaign setting, and while we have a 2372 campaign called Silk Roads for it, let’s take another possible vision for the Sargon Region and the Space Beyond. The aim is to populate an unexplored ‘sandbox’ region for your campaign, one that draws upon the many free Mission Briefs from Modiphius. Whether it’s for your Star Trek Adventures game or a solo Captain’s Log run, we hope this resource will be a ready-to-play corner of the Star Trek universe for you to explore.
While the default Continuing Mission location for Sargon and Beyond is in an unexplored section of the Beta Quadrant adjacent to the backwaters of the Romulan Empire, it doesn’t need to be there for your campaign. Set it anywhere you like with an unexplored region of space! We provide two map versions: the default map and an elsewhere map. The default map includes Romulan-related Mission Briefs as an added bonus.
The selected missions are adaptable to many eras. The MC should use their discretion to modify the adventures as appropriate to their setting.
Here are the two maps with hex-grids that you can hand to your players as they explore.
For the default setting, two starbases may serve as a homebase for exploration: Star Station Echo and Deep Space 6. For the elsewhere map, Star Station Echo is the sole Federation base. If you want to use this for a region of space far from any Federation presence, use this Nebulae-only map instead:
For GMs only: To run your campaign, choose one of the two PDFs below. Each hex in the Space Beyond is connected to a mission in one of the digital Star Trek Adventures Mission Briefs PDFs. When a ship explores that region, play through that mission. (For the default map, Romulan-related Mission Briefs are also listed and playable.) Missions were chosen to fit a sector of space that hasn’t had previous contact with the Federation (but depending on your take, may have had encounters with Romulans or other species known to the Federation).
The MC is encouraged to make adjustments to the map, and add new adventures to enrich the campaign experience.
For more information on the default set-up for the Cordon Nebulae and the Space Beyond, see the Silk Roads campaign materials, which you may incorporate or ignore as you wish.
For those who are interested in playing the original Silk Roads 2372 campaign, we will soon have a revised map and expanded Encounters using the same hex grid. We’ll also add new resources for the Missions Beyond campaign in the future.
For Captain’s Log players who want to use this resource as for a solo game, be sure to watch Jim Johnson’s video on how to adapt a Mission Brief for Captain’s Log.
