Background Information

The Klingon Ship Recognition Manual was a gaming guide used for Star Trek: The Role-Playing Game by FASA. It showed designs and described the combat abilities for several Klingon ship types and gave brief histories for them. The ships were from the timeframes of the original Star Trek series and movies. It contained many more designs than were contained in the original Starship Combat Manual. A 32-page first edition was released in 1983 in a carton sleeve, coinciding with the release of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, the title of which was printed on the sleeve. This edition contained 14 shipclasses, introduced with color art. The 1985 second edition differed greatly from the first edition. It was rewritten, expanded with new shipclasses while some classes and the color art from the first edition were left out.
