The outer limits of the Galaxy has always been a mysterious place that travellers see as the end of everything, but true explorers and adventurous spacers know better. They know that there is no such thing as the End, no Void beyond the Void, and that there is something out there to be found. It is the role of explorers and wanderers to find these things and turn them from mystery to fact.
This book looks at the process of exploring the Rim and the many uncharted planets and systems that make it such an attractive topic. Unmapped jump routes and new experimental colonies, explorer vessels and the discovery of new life are all just parts of what can be learned in this sourcebook.
The Rim includes:
How to explore the Void beyond the Rim; the methods behind it, and the reasoning
A detailed process on how to randomly create unknown events and planetoids outside of a common stellar system
An interesting system that describes all manners of lifeforms from viruses to the First Ones; and how to determine where they can be found
A handful of known planetoids found beyond the edge of the galaxy where strange things lurk
A small collection of lifeforms and technology found in the Greater Void, plus some useful tools for Rim explorers to use in their travels
Four new ships dedicated to exploration, and another look at an old favourite – the Explorer-class!
