These are homebrew rules for creating star systems and planets in Raiders of the Rim, based on Starblazer, Mindjammer, and other sources.

Stars

Stars

This is a random table for star types, based on the stars and quasistellar astronomical bodies often encountered in the Star wars universe.

  • +4: Exotic (Wolf-Rayet star, brown dwarf, black hole, etc.)
  • +3: Binary star (roll once for each)
  • +2 Yellow G-type star
  • +1: Orange K-type star
  • 0: Red M-type star
  • -1: Blue F-type star
  • -2: White A-type star
  • -3: Ultraviolet O-type star
  • -4: White dwarf

Planetary Systems

Planetary Systems This is a random generation table for entire planetary systems:

  • +4: Exotic system (artificial, planetoid ring, Dyson sphere, ringworld, etc.)
  • +3: Planetismal system; asteroid/debris ring/s, planetoids, etc.
  • +2 Rocky stellar system; 1-4 rocky worlds; 1-2 rock giants; 1-2 ice/hell worlds
  • +1: Typical stellar system; 1-4 rocky worlds; 1-2 gas giants; 1-2 ice giants
  • 0: Typical stellar system; 1-4 rocky worlds; 1-2 gas giants; 1-2 ice giants
  • -1: Single brown dwarf megaplanet
  • -2: Hot giant system; 1-4 gas giants in close solar orbit
  • -3: Dead system; 1-6 dead, airless, rocky worlds
  • -4: Planetless; no surviving worlds


Planet type
