In what once was a neglected backwater of the Third Imperium, a dozen small worlds have banded together to amke a new beginning. With a motley collection of patched up antique ships and a handful of Marines and commandos, they have set out to reconquer an empire and rebuild an interstellar civilization. Their struggle will pit them repeatedly against seemiming hopeless odds and every step forward along the road to their final goal will be purchased with their blood.

For the men and women of the Reformation Coalition, the road to the new future is a Path of Tears.

Path of Tears: The Star Viking Sourcebook establishes the standard for campaign backgrounds in Traveller: The New Era. Space may be infinitely large, containing billions of habitable worlds, but each of those worlds is unique, and home to innumerable portential adventures. Space is not interesting because it conatins thousands of cookie-cutter planets; space is fascinating because it contains thousands of unique, multifaceted worlds. Because of this philosophy, Path of Tears, and following New Era campaign support materials, will provides an effectively inexhaustible adventure resource.
