Strange New Pod | A Star Trek Podcast

Welcome to Session 0 of our special Strange New Adventures one-shot! This game is a direct love letter to the classic thriller Crimson Tide, set right in the gritty Enterprise era of Star Trek.

With the galaxy on a quadrant-wide red alert following the Earth-Romulan War, peace is hanging by a thread. In this kickoff episode, we set the stage for our high-stakes mission and dive into the precarious political climate surrounding the rogue Romulan Admiral Nikal.

Watch as the cast goes through collaborative character creation! We then wrap up by building our starship, the Birmingham, preparing her for a volatile deployment to the Neutral Zone outposts.

The fire is spreading!
Strange New Adventures, our Star Trek Adventures Actual Play series, returns for a relentless Season 2 premiere. Mars is no longer a beacon of ambition; it is a graveyard choked in ash and wreathed in flame. High above the smoldering ruins, the USS Thunder Bay cuts through a lethal field of shattered starships and stolen lives.
The Parliament-class vessel is outclassed by the sheer scale of the devastation, yet her crew must hold the line. In "Adrift in the Crimson Inferno," every sensor ghost is a tragedy and every distress call is a gamble. The mission is no longer just a patrol. It is a desperate fight to salvage hope from the wreckage of a burning world.
The Cries of Mars have begun. Will Thunder Bay answer? Find out on the season premiere of The Cries of Mars!
