Review & Commentary On Damocles By Joseph Mohr For The Cepheus Engine & Old School 2d6 Science Fiction Rpg's

 "This is an adventure for Cepheus Engine.

Damocles Station, also known as Star Base S-132C, is known to be one of the most lawless places in the Sonora sector. The station is built into the side of an asteroid at the very heart of the Glusrerosia system. This system has one of the most dense asteroid belts in the sector and is heavily mined by most of the major mining companies."

"The station is a great place to find cheap goods to bring to market elsewhere. Sometimes these goods are not exactly legal at other places in the sector. It is also a good place to find information or to find someone evading the law. Bounty hunters visit this place regularly seeking their prey. It is also a good place to get killed. People are found floating outside the station without a vacc suit from time to time."

"The station is populated by all sorts of people. Belters, pirates, gamblers, merchants, aliens, spies, criminals and bounty hunters visit the station daily. It can be a dangerous place to visit but it is a great place to find adventure."

Damocles By Joseph Mohr is a nice place to visit but not a great place to die! This is a station on the edge of legal and illegal activities. And it can easily be added into your own Cepheus Engine rpg. Damocles is a station that has plenty of NPC's, encounters, &  opportunities for crews and adventurers to get into deep trouble. There's a list of complications and hoards of NPC's working thoughout this adventure location. 
Damocles is the type of shady place where bounty hunters and pirates rub elbows while high end cargoes of a highly illegal nature leave the station. There's cut throats a plenty here and even the staff is on the take to a certain extent. All of this is rounded into the forty four pages of information on Damocles. Bare in mind that the station is a haven for scum and villainy all across the universe and yet there's plenty of opportunity here for profit and trade! 

This is the type of location that's perfect for adding right into your own frontier out on the Black. Damocles is the perfect location to add in as a quisi legal or completely black location off the books. Yet, the station exists and flourishes out on the frontier. For 2d6 old school Science Fiction rpg's Damocles station is a boon in that it's a highly functional and yet incredibly dangerous place out in the blackness of space. 

What's perfect about the station is the fact that it's both a respite for your party of adventurers and a place of opportunity for adventures. There's lots of risk and reward here in Damocles station. 

But is it worth the down load as a pay what you want title on Drivethrurpg?! In a word, yes and here's why! The fact that Joseph Mohr crammed a Hell of a lot into his station in adventure opportunities, NPC's, complications, etc. means that Domacles station is a happening place in a Cepheus Engine campaign. This is a perfect station to plug into your Clement Sector campaign  easily as a hangout for the scum of the Clement or Earth sector.

For the Hostile rpg the Damocles station might take a bit of work but it could be done! The pirate career would have to come into it's own though. And opportunities would have to expand against the corporations of Hostile. 

Stars Without Number could easily host a Damocles station with scum from across the face of creation having to deal with pirates, gamblers, colonists and more. This station would fit right in. The DM might have to work to fit in the station and do some leg work on stats but it could easily be done.
