I loves me some Star Wars SAGA rules. I've had a couple of thoughts lately about rejiggering the rules for some other genres...
1. I'd like to adapt the Jedi class and make it a Martial Artist class for a chop-socky one-shot, borrowing generously from "Blood and Fists" and "Martial Arts Mayhem". Work out a bunch of talents based either on broad techniques [Striking, Weapons, Grappling], or on general styles [Southern Leg, Northern Fist, etc., like Martial Arts Mayhem] or even based on specific styles.
2. I have a notion that with minimal tweaks, this system could work for general modern action movie kinda stuff. "Noble" and "Scoundrel" and "Scout" maybe don't have quite the flavor I'm looking for...maybe break it down like Alternity into Combat Spec, Tech Op, Free Agent, and Diplomat, and shuffle the existing talents around as appropriate?
And give that Diplomat something to mimic the Alternity class's ability to designate one of the other classes as a sort of secondary class. Maybe they have a talent where they can designate one class as their secondary field of expertise and take bonus feats or skill training from that other class's list?
