Update #127: Farthest Reaches
An easy candidate for "most well-rounded 5K ship" the Reach Cruiser is a custom designed, heavily armored long-range cruiser build exclusively by the shipyards of Alta Mesa. Designed around an armored core of integrated Crew protection components, like the Alta Mesa Battle Bridge, the Reach Cruiser can protect a crew and soak up an incredible amount of punishment in battle and survive. Their reputation as the best shipwrights in the galaxy precede them, and the Reach Cruiser delivers!
Update #127 adds 4 new Large slot components and 1 Medium slot, beefing up the options available to any ship willing to trade its larger slot for additional cargo, fuel or armor. The Alta Mesa Battle Bridge (medium) is combat ready and heavily armored. Cadar's Battle Prow 5 (large) adds a ridiculous complement of Armor with a dash of Shield while Javat's Hull Plating puts Shield first and Armor second. Both large-scale components can provide a great deal of ship's needed defensive soak, at a trade for a good deal of jump cost in fuel. Thulun's new Armored Cargo Hold 4 (large) packs a 40 cargo hold and adds 65 Fuel while the De Valtos' Fuel-Cargo Hold puts more emphasis on 95 Fuel over 35 cargo. All of these large slot components provide a great deal of utility and free up smaller slots for other work, but all require more than 600 mass and add to jump cost. Packing a few of these large cargo and fuel options onto a ship can extend its range immensely, enabling you to cross multiple hostile quadrants without a need for a refill.
With Captain-only Traits now behind us, we're moving on to Faction specific rules. Update #127 has released the first wave of these new additions, showing the character and specializations of these factions. With the latest medical tech available to all citizens, cost of healing at De Valtos clinics is reduced by 20%. Employing a unique blend of holistic medicine, spice products and medical tech, cost of healing at Zenrin clinics is reduced by 20%. Plush with every comfort and type of spice, Rychart Spice Halls can raise crew Morale to 90 (instead of 80). If you're sailing the void past a Rychart world, the crew may clamor now for a quick stop to "top off" their Morale. Combining sure proficiency with advanced tech, Thulun starports repair ship hull and component damage in 20% less time than elsewhere. Unrivaled expertise in ship construction eases upgrade cycles, Alta Mesa starports install new components in 15% less time than elsewhere. Known to be both stubborn and of robust health, Zenrin Contacts live 30% longer than normal. More Faction specific rules will be coming, so don't be salty if your faction was not included in this go round!
With this release, we've added 3 new Traits suggested by @drspendlove from our awesome community: Hypochondriac, Fierce and Paranoid. You'll encounter new recruits who may have these Traits and will see them mutating onto your existing crew. Those with Hypochondriac cost twice as much to heal, Fierce characters gain +15% Piercing, +1 Strength and -1 Charisma while Paranoid characters gain +2 Initiative, but lose -2 Wisdom and all Morale gains are reduced by 50%. The Trait Conditioning of the Gestalt Technologists can remove Hypochondriac ... for a price. We've also fixed two issues with the Captain-only Traits. In some cases, the Zealot's Single-Minded Trait was incorrectly stating that it increased Fortitude, which it does not. We've also fixed a bug with the Diplomat's Honorable Trait which was causing positive Reputation gains with the enemy faction during missions.

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.
