First Year Sourcebook

The First Year Sourcebook was a ' role-playing game supplement published by the FASA Corporation to adapt their earlier '-era RPG material to the relatively new TNG continuation of the franchise. Published in 1988, the First Year Sourcebook covered several key plot points from TNG's first season. Material from this supplement was later adapted to a larger work, the Star Trek: The Next Generation Officer's Manual. Soon after the release of the TNG update materials, issues between FASA and the licensing office at Paramount Pictures would cause the discontinuation of the FASA RPG series.
