Still using the GURPS Transhuman Space setting, right?
If I did Infinite Worlds, that'd be a different setting and a homebrew scenario, but I could use the iconic PCs from the Basic Set.

But it's just a thought. I'm probably better off sticking with the Transhuman Space scenario I own and just doing the conversion to GURPS 4e.

the only difference with my kids I use PG13 for a langugae/sexual content guide; violence is pretyy much irrelevant when it comes to those two ratings...just one dad's opinion

Here's my blurb:

Slot Two
Table ?
The Wreck of the Grinning Jenny
Dungeon World - Half D&D, Half Apocalypse World
4 seats
The pirates of the Grinning Jenny have been the bane of the South Seas for many years. Now they've sacked the Hesperus, taking its treasure and kidnapping Annabella, the daughter of Soubeton's governor. But the pirates' luck may have come to an end: they've foundered on a mysterious coral island in the Cursed Isles, and your band of adventurers has them in its sights. Can you defeat the pirates, seize their ill-gotten wealth and rescue Annabella? And what of that mysterious spire rising from the island's height?

Hey Buzz.

Here's the Star Wars Saga blurb:

An emergency on the Galactic Republic's prison ship Sentinel IV led to a prison break, and while most escapees were caught and dealt with, a few managed to elude recapture. Enter the Tip Top Bounty Hunting Agency. They're the best, and they've been hired to track down the two most dangerous prisoners. Their orders are to being them in, dead or alive. With a couple of names and a couple of leads, the agency members are on the case.
This is a Star Wars Saga edition game for 5 players. Pre-gen characters will be used. No experience in the game or the SW universe are mandatory, but both would be useful.

Your waffling ain't giving me much time to pick up a book and get acquainted with the ruleset. :D
