  • Star Trek Gaming Magazine Articles 3.1.Rtf
    FASA STAR TREK: THE ROLE PLAYING GAME & STAR TREK: STARSHIP COMBAT SIMULATOR GAME Game Articles List Version 3.1 Introduction The purpose of this list is to provide an index of articles relating to Star Trek: The Role Playing Game by FASA. The list is categorized by magazine, then by issue, and finally by the material within the magazine relevant to ST:RPG. Also, due to its rather short run on the market, articles for Heritage Model’s Star Trek: Adventure Gaming in the Final Frontier RPG are included. In addition, West End Games’ Star Trek III and Star Trek: The Adventure Game are also included in this compilation. Although there are notable exceptions, some of the magazines articles listed herein have not been seen by the compiler of this list. The information contained for these magazines has been culled from the internet, including www.ebay.com. Auction listings for specific magazines have been very handy in finding articles relevant to ST:RPG- when the seller includes the information. Any information included by the seller about the article has been included with the description. Other major sources of information are listed under each magazine’s heading. This list has been helped along recently by the wonderful website http://www.anzwers.org/free/fasa/, managed by Mark. This site even lists issues that have FASA Star Trek advertisements. In addition, virtually all of the information on Ares, Space Gamer, and VIP of Gaming magazine articles has been culled from The Maverick’s Space and Fantasy Gamer’s Guide by Joe Scoleri.
