Previous Editions
Written by Craig Hilton and Paul Kidd, it was originally published as a box set in 1988 by Thoughts & Images and consisted of 4 books: Player's Manual, Equipment Description, Referee's Manual and Tlakatan Scenario (sample scenario). The RPG was later revised and published by Chessex in 1993 as a softcover. There is one companion sourcebook and a pair of ready-made scenarios, also in softcover:
- Albedo Ship Sourcebook (Kidd, Gallacci - Chessex, 1995), rules for ship design and statistics for various spaceships.
- The Drift (Kidd - Chessex, 1994), an adventure scenario in space.
- Zho-Chaka (Kidd - Chessex, 1994), an adventure scenario on a ConFed planet.
There also exists a third-party guide to converting Albedo for use with the GURPS RPG system, written by Fred M. Sloniker and called, appropriately enough, GURPS Albedo.

Famous quotes containing the words previous and/or editions:
“Our talk of external things, our very notion of things, is just a conceptual apparatus that helps us to foresee and control the triggerings of our sensory receptors in the light of previous triggering of our sensory receptors.”
—Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
“The next Augustan age will dawn on the other side of the Atlantic. There will, perhaps, be a Thucydides at Boston, a Xenophon at New York, and, in time, a Virgil at Mexico, and a Newton at Peru. At last, some curious traveller from Lima will visit England and give a description of the ruins of St. Paul’s, like the editions of Balbec and Palmyra.”
—Horace Walpole (1717–1797)
