Summary: At last! A "semi-official" history of Andorians
Comment: Last Unicorn Games' exciting book,"The Andorians: Amongthe Clans" (the actual title of what Amazon was calling "TheAndorians: Setting Book") is a support manual for use in LUG's series of Star Trek roleplaying games. This one is written by S. John Ross, Steven S. Long and Adam Dickstein.

Finally, we have a "real" book about Andorians. Sadly, for copyright reasons, LUG was not permitted to incorporate ANY of Trek fandom's Andorian "lore". Because none of the various Star Trek TV series, or movies, have given us much in the way of canonical information about the blue-skinned, antennaed aliens called Andorians, it had been left to fandom to fill in the blanks through fanzines. This manual actually debunks such non-canonical works as mythology.

This book offers a quite different, but quite intriguing, background for the Andorians. Three sub-races of Andorians are identified: the predominant Thalassan, with high, knobby antennae (as seen in the original Trek); the Talish (of ST:TMP), who have forward, tendril-like antennae; and the Bish'ee (of TNG), who have diminishing antennae standing straight out from their head.

LUG's thoughtful and richly detailed material is a great source for introducing these warriors into Trek roleplays.
