Update #102: Highliner
Javat's first faction-specific ship takes to the stars! The Tiberian Highliner is a heavily shielded transport ship with a large crew and long travel range. Fitted with passenger cabins and prison cells, the Tiberian functions as a long distance cruiser for Clan Javat. As with all Faction-specific ships, the Tiberian Highliner requires at least Military Rank 4 to purchase.
With Update #102, we've added 2 new small size options to increase your cargo or fuel capacity. In conjunction with an increase of cargo capacity for both Storage Hold and Storage Cache, those captains looking for extra flexibility in ways to use small slot cargo or squeeze a little more cargo or fuel capacity into their ship have an expanded set of options. We've also added Reinforced Barracks 4 option, which brings both Shield and Armor to the table and rebalanced the Jump Cost penalties for all Reinforced Barracks.
Following the last major update to the starport, we've improved a few of the default filtering and sorting rules. Those components that are faction-specific to your local faction now appear without any need to change the filtering. We've also modified the faction sort routine to place faction-specific items first and not last.
We continue to focus on the big items, but make time each week to work on the little items as well. To make map seed sharing easier and faster, we've added a copy seed button to each captain's description when you're picking a captain to load. We've done some work to improve and focus the descriptions of each starting profession and improved screen elements and how they are scaled on larger screens. Finally, we're always looking to add any illogical Trait combinations to the exclusion tables. Thanks to the players who sent in a few of these -- they have been cut out for future possible mutations.

Update #102 releases a slew of new components to increase ship design flexibility, a new Javat-only ship, a small set of fixes to the new starport filters, and a lovely package of bug fixes and quality of life improvements. Here at Trese Brothers HQ, we are hard at work on the first major dev roadmap item, hammering away on all the exciting Orbital Rumors and Salvage opportunities. It will feel good to burn down the first item from the new roadmap!

Choose your path by assembling and commanding your custom crew and spaceship in a constantly evolving galaxy torn by internal strife, political intrigue, and alien threats.

First there was the Exodus – when survivors of a great war left the ruins of the Galactic Core behind in search of a new home in the stars. Scattered worlds were claimed on the fringe of the galaxy. Each pocket of survivors held on to their isolated set of worlds while trying to rebuild under the great law of Shalun. Three centuries later, technology has brought them back together again. Discovery of the hyperwarp has bridged what was once unimaginable distances between far-flung colonies, long-lost families, and political factions.
With that reunification has come great economic prosperity. The hyperwarp reestablished the transportation of cargo, goods, and technologies between the quadrants – but it has also brought great strife. Political rivalries have been rekindled, blood has been shed in age-old feuds, and the fires of war have been stoked. Amidst the political infighting, a ruthless revolution is rising – and the fervent explorers of the hyperwarp have awoken something that was better left asleep.
Great conflict is a time of great opportunity. For you, an aspiring Star Trader Captain who has just been given your charter, now is the time to capitalize on that opportunity.

Our very first game, Star Traders RPG, took hundreds of thousands of gamers on an interstellar adventure. The success of Star Traders and its overwhelming positive reception helped to launch Trese Brothers Games. It was the adventures of our community’s star-crossed captains that put us on a trajectory to share more of our worlds, ideas, and dreams through digital games.
We set out to capture the loneliness, bravery, and camaraderie of people living together in a spaceship sailing across the stars. It’s time to take the helm and breathe life into the these stories, characters, and stars.
It is with great pride that after the release of four other games in the Star Traders universe, we’ve created a sequel to the original Star Traders RPG. We reached out to our fan base of Star Traders Captains with our latest KickStarter campaign and pitched our ambitious plan for an all-new open world sci-fi RPG.
Step onto the bridge of your starship, take to the stars, and create your own story in Star Traders: Frontiers. Instead of being our first foray, we have brought all of the knowledge and experience to our latest and by far most ambitious project.
- Explore a rich, open universe: Discover endless procedurally-generated galactic maps, meet unique characters, and take on enemies to conquer the galaxy!
- Become an intergalactic captain: Take on the role of a spy, smuggler, explorer, pirate, merchant, bounty hunter, and more (21 jobs total)!
- Customize your own spaceship: Choose from more than 300 upgrades and build your very own vessel to venture across the vast reaches of space.
- Assemble and tailor a loyal crew: Assign talents and equip specialized gear for every spaceship crew member.
- Experience an ever-changing narrative: Decide to make friends or foes with other factions and influence political, economic, and personal vendettas.
