Last Unicorn Games

Licensee ??? through 2000.

(Update c/o Nelson Eisel)

From the late 1990s through 2000, Last Unicorn Games (LUG) published a
series of Star Trek RPG materials. On the technical side of things,
they included rough designs for some new classes of ships. In 2000,
LUG was purchased by Wizards of the Coast (WotC); not long after,
Paramount pulled WotC's license to produce a Star Trek RPG and gave it
to Decipher (see below).

Many of the Star Trek RPG writers from LUG have been re-hired by
Decipher's RPG division; the first books scheduled for release in
2001.

Here is a complete list of the books Last Unicorn had released for
their Star Trek RPG series:

Star Trek: The Next Generation

* Core Game Book
* Narrator's Toolkit
* Price of Freedom: The United Federation of Planets Sourcebook
* A Fragile Peace: The Neutral Zone Campaign, vol.1
* The Way of the Kolinahr: The Vulcans
* The First Line: Starfleet Intelligence Handbook
* Planets of the UFP: A Guide to Federation Worlds
* Planetary Adventures, Vol. 1: Adventures in Federation Space
* The Way of D'era: The Romulan Star Empire
* The Player's Guide
* Starfleet Academy Boxed Set
* Holodeck Adventures

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine

Star Trek: The Original Series

At the time of the acquisition and termination of the license, many
additional projects were under way or close to completion. Several of
these unfinished works of the LUG RPG writers have been made available
online:
