Contents

Alien Module 8: Darrians is a 40-page book written by Marc Miller, Robert and Nancy Parker, and Matt Renner. It was the eighth supplement published by GDW dealing with various alien races found in the Traveller universe.[1]

This book deals with the Darrian Confederation, a minor human/Solomani race of the Spinward Marches who once had a technology greater than that of the Imperium. But they now live in much reduced circumstances except for an old and mighty piece of technology called the Star Trigger.

The book details the Darrians in terms of history, politics, lost technology, culture, and physiology.[1] It also includes a scenario, "The Secret of the Star Trigger."[2]

Reviews

In the August 1988 edition of Dragon (Issue 136), Ken Rolston gave the book high praise, saying, "This is highly recommended for Traveller game fans everywhere."[1]
