Questions about what scenarios are available come up a lot on places like Discord, so I thought it might be worth sorting an at-a-glance summary page with both official and unofficial sets. I might treat this as an ongoing project as obviously new stuff does come out from Posthuman from time to time, and as homebrew, plus I’ll probably miss a few good ones.
Many of these are of course First Edition, so need more or less stat conversion if playing in Second, and I’ve marked them [1e] or [2e] to denote this. Many of the 1e PDFs were released by Rob Boyle on his blog a while back, but are also available via Drivethru RPG — folks are encouraged to give them the value of that thing they made cos y’know, it’ll help them make more. Where the scenario is PDF I’ve included page counts as a vague guide to how in-depth and long the story is likely to be.
To look for scenarios set in specific regions search for keywords Solar, Mercury, Venus, Luna, Earth, Mars, Main Belt, Jovian, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Kuiper, Deep Space and Exoplanet.
