This topic has been something I've thought about for awhile. I was excited to discover a first contact module from the Space Opera RPG of the early 80's. However I just had a "duh" moment when I realized that Star Frontiers has potentially done first contact more than any other system.<br /><br />Volturnus Campaign<br />1. Ul-mor- first contact happens in terms of the PCs desperately needing help<br />2. Kurabung- first contact happens in terms of the PCs have a chance to help out the desperate primates<br />3. edestakai- first contact happens in terms of PCs are in possession of vital information about how this primitive race has been taken advantage of and is in need of securing their help with the PC's mission and goals.<br />4. Eorna- hidden advanced race that has its own goals and objectives help must be secured as it turns out if they dont work together everyone will die.<br /><br />Bugs in the System module<br />first contact is with alien intelligence that has invaded the station's computers network<br /><br />Mission to Alcazzar<br />Another first contact with a primitive ape species that lays an ambush for the PCs<br /><br />Beyond the Frontier Campaign <br />two first contacts one of which is with an advanced space faring species<br /><br />Magazine encounters:<br />Layover at Lossend- first contact is with a primitive ape species that worships the PC's crashed air car as a sky chariot of the gods and the PCs who paraglided out of it before the crash are thought to be gods. Encounter is underdeveloped but has some potential for humor I would think.<br /><br />The Zethra- new race is presented in such a way that a game master is encouraged to have the PCs be the first to encounter one.
