Crossed Swords

From publisher blurb: Vexation lives up to its name as a bothersome pirate base that’s just far enough away to avoid a visit from the Interstellar Navy but close enough to plunder interstellar commerce. It’s also the setting for a war between said pirates and their newest adversaries, a terrorist organization that feels the pirates have violated their turf. Into this blender of hostility come the PCs, who find themselves looking for missing members of a businessperson’s family while walking a fine line between violent radicals and equally violent brigands. Whether by means of a planted bomb or a cold steel cutlass, the heroes’ journeys might well come to an abrupt end. Crossed Swords is a short science fiction adventure using the Cepheus Engine (CE), Cepheus Deluxe (CD) and the Original Science Fiction Roleplaying Game (OSFRPG) rules. Other 2D6 systems are easily adapted.
