Hey there, goblins! 👹 This week, we're blasting off from Golarion and getting weird with the new Starfinder! Join us for our first look at the Starfinder Galaxy Guide, the very first book for the new edition, released even before the core rulebook. Is this a genius marketing move or just a cosmic tease? 🪐
Before we jump into hyperspace, we share what we've been playing : chaotic stories from our Delta Green campaign (CDC lockdowns , creepy babies , and homemade mustard gas ), plus tales of hag-slaying in Blood Lords and Eric's play-by-post game of desert kaiju and sentient illusions.
Then, it's all about the Galaxy Guide! We break down...
- Who is this book for? Is it worth the gold for players & GMs?
- The Sci-Fi Kitchen Sink: How to run Dystopian , War-Torn , or just plain Weird campaigns.
- The Lore: We recap 300+ years of history, including "The Gap" , the Swarm , and the birth of a literal baby god.
- Factions & Weird Ancestries: From Space Pirates and Hellknights to floating brains (Contemplatives ), body-horror shape-changers (Astrazoans ), and empathic dragons (Dragonkin )!
So strap in, check your oxygen, and find out if the new Starfinder gets the Goblin Salvage Rites seal of approval! ✨🚀
