The crew makes their escape from Athena colony in the freshly rebuilt Tempus. Before they can make the jump to metaspace, however, the crew is boarded by Dyanstic scout drones.

In the Tempus System, instead of using dice, players will use the date and time to randomize setup and available actions. —description from the designer
