Insurrection is a scenario supplement for Third Edition Starfire, based upon the novel "Insurrection" written by David Weber and Steve White. After the Fourth Interstellar War, the Terran corporate worlds had gained a concentration of political, economic, and social power compared to the fringe worlds. Corporate world politicians invited the Khanate of Orion to a political union in order to dilute the political power of the fringe and the fringe responded by withdrawing from the Terran Federation and starting a civil war. This supplement includes new technologies for HT14 and HT15. Insurrection requires the 3rd Edition Tactical Rulebook to play out the scenarios that are included as part of the story line. —description from the publisher
