The Romulans is a supplement which includes two books: The Star Fleet Intelligence Manual is a guide to the history and culture of the Romulan people, and the Game Operations Manual contains data relating to Romulan worlds and rules for creating Romulan player characters. [1]

Reception

R Jarnor reviewed The Romulans for White Dwarf #65, giving it an overall rating of 8 out of 10, and stated that "All in all if you want to run Romulan characters or a Romulan campaign, then this is for you. My only reservation is that for the money I would expect a little more in the way of details on subjects such as ships, worlds, etc." [2]

Bob Mosley III reviewed The Romulans in Space Gamer No. 75. [1] Mosley commented that "although The Romulans is a helpful addition to ST – RPG, it pales when placed alongside its Klingon counterpart. Had FASA spent more time on developing background material, this would have been a better supplement. still, it's a fair source of background material for the GM who wants to run a Federation campaign in Romulan territory."
