Edge of Terminator

Mobile mines/factories ride Mercury's Terminator, the fine line between scorching day and freezing night.  But it only took a solar storm to bring these giants to a standstill.

The last factory, Cypress VI, approaches the dayside terminator, where it will irreparably bake. The player characters, a repair crew with secret objectives from patrons off-world, are tasked with repairing Cypress VI. 

With contesting loyalties, the players must race against the sun to fulfill their public and secret objectives before hitting the edge of the terminator.

Edge of Terminator is a one-shot for Orbital 2100 and other hard, 2D6 sci-fi RPGs.

Orbital 2100 is (C) 2016 Zozer Games.
