Game Time	90500 - ?
Real Time	1990/11/01 - 1994/11/01
Location	Mill Hill School
Rule Version	1.0
Gamesmaster	Rob Lang
Information - OOC
The very first Icar group, using hurriedly pencil drawn equipment index and character sheets from a dot matrix printer. Most missions involved battling Genus 2 mutants in Munchkin-like bloodbaths. Very little intrigue and mystery, very large guns. The group ended after a prolongued arms race, typical of any fledgling roleplay group.
Information - IC
Let's Take The Piss Out Of Star Fleet (LTTPOOSF) was a trooper squad that was partly adopted by Star Sci. Taken from the Trooper Unit 201 just before they were due to start active service, these three borderline psychopaths conducted more missions for the fleet than any other team. They eventually left the fleet to persue more Star Sci related tasks and acted as trouble shooters for them. Star Sci lavished attention on them in turn, providing all manner of wacky gadgets from huge space craft to a moon that could light-jump. LTTPOOSF should be best remembered for being the ones who implanted the AI virus on the Droid computer in 91622. The only member of the team that can be sure to be dead is Baldrick IV, whose body is spread around several colonies.

Taking Icar to the local games club that Rob had visited since he was 12 was a big step. He enlisted a number of new players that demonstrated that the system was far from watertight and that the original three players had only managed through their presence during adaption. Violence was still the key here with mission-led evenings.

The Fear ended after almost three years of play. The team had gone from nothing, to Interstellar vigilante superstars. Their home planet, Acerine Prime (Baeleris, Dorian) rocked to the sounds of their chain Weaponry and heavy armour. They had style and ethos but this was soon lost when an accident lead to the death of an undercover Star Enforcer, they were then chased off planet and the decline began. The team lost cohesion and direction, left to wander the wastes of the Fringe and Lone Systems.
Information - IC
They started as a group of school friends on a system that was not as comfortable as they first thought. After graduation, some of their friends became entangled in trouble and then started disappearing. From here, the group started doing Vigilante work.

Thrown out of the Star Enforcers relatively early, this group then decided to go full tilt against the might of the Nios population on planet.

Information - OOC
Another new campaign for my player group. This campaign introduced drugs and their affects on the characters. Super-low powered with lots of running away rather than facing off with bigger guns. Fish plays a super bitch while Byrn does an impression of Neil from the Young Ones to the delight of all. Iain's first character, Fidel, moved up out of the group by getting employed as a member of the council, attempting to change the politics from within.
