Publication history
Robin Laws designed Ashen Stars (2011) for Pelgrane Press's GUMSHOE system.
Reception
Ashen Stars was a 2011 nominee for the Origins Award for best RPG.
John ONeill of Black Gate comments: "Drawing heavily upon his successful GUMSHOE mystery system, author Robin D. Laws has created an extremely appealing game of space opera procedural mysteries. In the tradition of the best hard boiled detective fiction, players are constantly scrambling for money, equipment, and respect… all of which they'll need to succeed in a war-ravaged perimeter where trust is a precious commodity, and very little is truly what it seems."
