Omega 99 – Master List of Posts

Omega 99 is Michael Brown’s one page setting for Traveller/Cepheus engine. It’s a setting based on the old Space 1999 TV series that ran for two seasons from 1975-1977

In the TV show, an explosion knocks the Moon along with the inhabitants of a moon base called Alpha into deep space. The Moon travels uncontrollably through deep space, visiting various solar systems, while the Alphans try to survive and find a way back home.

The Omega 99 setting changes the plot slightly (the moon doesn’t move, it is transported to an alien sector), but keeps all of the flavor.

I found it pretty inspiring, so I starting creating some of my own materials for it. This is a list of all of the posts I made for Omega 99.

First, I made a PDF character sheet. It’s fillable, and also has a table tent.space1999_bergman

I made a Cepheus Deluxe version as well

For my first Omega 99 game, I made some pre-generated PCs based on the original TV show characters:  Omega 99 – Pregenerated Characters

Here’s a one shot scenario I made: The Artifact – a scenario for Omega 99

I’ve also thrown together some thoughts on the Omega 99 setting itself, and how I might run it as a campaign.

Here’s the Artemis – the Omega Moonbase’s only jump-capable spacecraft.
