After their narrow escape from Sytynas with the liberation, The Tempus Crew Finds themselves back home in the Roza system. Shortly after landing, they are rounded up and dragged to the lair of mid-level mob boss, Calister Mayvins, previous owner of the Tempus, who offers them an ultimatum. Games in the Tempus series work similarly to roll and write games where players roll dice and use the results to fill in a sheet. 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
