Dragonstar :: what happened?

[Agent Oracle]

In my game, many of the upper eschelons of officers in the armada are drow. Their long lifespan and ambitious nature makes them perfect House M. material. Though I have sworn to my players that there will never be a Col. Driz'zit, or dri'zell, or drow'zname... or any name starting with a D and containing a z.

I kind of imported the etherscope values system, which works with allegiances to make a more well-rounded personality...

Is there any word of FF doing a re-release or is it just dead?

Attached is a file I compiled for Dragonstar, which updates a lot of the setting to version 3.5. This file is based on the Dark Star Home Page, and several other resources.

It is just dead.

Well, it's not like there will be a reunification of drow and elves anytime soon.

If you want to do away with alignment, Your Campaign, Your Rules.

Yes, I know I can change that which I don't like, although I haven't yet run a campaign.

I was actually thinking more about the war between the dragon kingdoms which led to the founding of the empire. I'm not sure that would have happened without the sides being so aligned.

Ahh.

Well, if it helps any: think of it like this:

Axis & Allies.
North & South
Crusaders & Islam

There. some fundamental differing of ideology that causes the two sides to splinter which leads to a war of Us Vs. Them... wherein neither side won.

Anyone else have problems with the piloting rules? I ended up having to streamline them a bit.

I picked up the books last year, and they're really cool! Though, haven't had a chance to play yet.

Well, that would be a different era setting for Dragonstar (like Star Wars and its different eras: Old Republic Era, Rebellion Era, New Republic, etc.).
