Player and Game Master version
The player version contains the briefing, roles, objectives, flow and what the crew knows. The Game Master version adds what is really going on, hidden intel, prepared radio scripts, optional events, twists and possible endings. Before every release a test checks that no text from the Game Master version appears in the player version.

Names, named ships, companies, radio messages and events in these templates are made up. They are not in-game missions and do not describe game mechanics. The game master decides how a scene is staged in the game – suggestions are marked IN GAME in the PDF.
