<div class="codex-subtitle">A Purpose-Built ''Star Trek'' Roleplaying System</div>

<p class="codex-lead">''To Boldly Go'' emphasizes capable characters, an ensemble crew, fast resolution, scientific discovery, command decisions, and dramatic starship action.</p>

The rules are organized around what Starfleet characters actually do rather than around long lists of narrowly defined abilities.

<div class="trek-mission">
<div class="trek-mission-title">The Continuing Mission</div>
Explore strange new worlds. Seek out new life and new civilizations. Protect the ship and crew. Confront difficult choices. Return next week to do it all again.

== The Mission Continues ==

These rules are intended to produce episodes rather than tactical exercises. Characters confront dangers, mysteries, and moral problems; contribute according to their abilities and responsibilities; and return from each mission with new experiences that may shape the stories still to come.

<div class="codex-callout trek-briefing">
<div class="codex-callout-title">The Starfleet Approach</div>
Understand the problem before trying to control it. Give every member of the crew something meaningful to contribute. Resort to force only when no better solution will protect the ship, the crew, or innocent lives.
