StarBase 118 Offline RPG Card Game
Attention, fleetmates! We're excited to announce that after two decades of simming online, StarBase 118 is expanding to new frontiers: table top gaming!

Consider the following:

Ever want to sim but the wi-fi is just terrible at your location?
Find all this "reading of sims" gets in the way of the action?
Do you enjoy collecting things and want something a bit more tangible of your characters?
Like numbers?

The StarBase 118 Offline RPG Card Game will bring a whole new generation of fans to the StarBase 118 universe! Whether you're an old school table top gamer or a newbie, the SB118ORPGCG offers something for everyone!

Coming Spring 2015! StarBase 118 Offline RPG Card Game starter set

Our starter set coming in Spring 2015 will launch with the entire Fleet Roster of current characters and all current ships in the fleet. In addition, mission cards compiled from the best missions in our archives will be included, and we'll continue to add more with future expansion packs.

But we need your help!

In preparation for the launch of our new format, you can use this template to create RPG playing cards of your existing characters and submit them to our official launch thread for final printing and mass production.

A full rulebook is currently being drafted, so until then, feel free to make your best guess as to what traits and stats your character needs. We'll ultimately balance the card game so that no one character card trumps the others.

How to Submit Your Character's Card

To create a card for your character, add /Card to the end of your current character's bio page's URL to create a new StarBase 118 Offline RPG Card Game subpage for your character.

Example: Rahman, Roshanara/Card

Then, cut and paste the following template code:

{{Card
|NAME=Tristam Core
|IMAGE=TristamCore3.jpg
|SPECIES=Rodulan
|ABOUT=Chief Engineer of USS ''Garuda''. Components expert. Loves swuit sticks. Hates propulsion.
|TRAIT 1=Dramatic
|TRAIT 2=Overconfident
|TRAIT 3=Protective
|TRAIT 4=Outspoken
|INTEGRITY=4
|CUNNING=8
|STRENGTH=5
}}

Then just replace Tristam Core's information with the information and an image for your character!

Longer Species Name or Hybrids

If your character is a hybrid or has a long species name that doesn't quite fit in the species box, just put font size tags around it like so:

|SPECIES=<font size=1>Human/Gideon</font>

Jess Webber

Human/Gideon

Operations Officer of the Mercury. BFFs with Nick Falls (pictured). Musician. Loves gossip.

Playful
Carefree

Restless
Impatient

Chief Engineer of the USS Gemini. Fiery personality with a twist of mild insanity.

Aggressive
Intelligent

Displaced
Fierce

Image adjustment has now been added!

If you need to adjust your image up or down because the head's too low or high, simply add the the number of pixels you want to move the image up after the image name, separated by a "|" character.

The template automatically moves the image up by 40 pixels if you don't put anything, so you can change that to 0 by putting |0 for instance. Play with the number and hit preview until you're satisfied.

{{Card
|NAME=Msafiri Bakari
|IMAGE=Bakari.jpg|80
|SPECIES=Human
|ABOUT=First officer of the ''Garuda''. Survivor of the Vaadwaur Occupation of 2387. History buff.
|TRAIT 1=Loyal
|TRAIT 2=Protective
|TRAIT 3=Romantic
|TRAIT 4=Hot Tempered
|INTEGRITY=5
|CUNNING=6
|STRENGTH=7
}}

Unadjusted vs Adjusted:

Msafiri Bakari

Human

First officer of the Garuda. Survivor of the Vaadwaur Occupation of 2387. History buff.

Loyal
Protective
