ARGHHH! Who put this HIVE here?!

When 4E was announced I completely stopped buying WotC material. My group switched over to Star Wars with a smattering of Babylon 5, Traveller, GURPS & Rifts. I'm more of a science fiction person anyway.

Fantasy never really kept me interested. My mind always wandered. With my SciFi gaming fix I can completely devote myself to the game.

You know, I'm pretty much the same. I'm over the top scifi geek, and after buing the core book set of 4e and the first two adventures, I gave up. It's not a game for me. The new SW keeps busy enough.

I've got a bunch of scifi images I'd like to get uploaded to my phtotbucket account when I get the time. I'll probably start on it this coming weekend.

I like fantasy... but unfortunately, I don't know how well a fantasy game plays in pbp (when using dnd rules). I used to do free form pbp games, but they really sucked since unless you were "a main character" all you even end up doing is walking around in circles (that litterally happened with one character of mine that adventured with a kimodo dragonlike monster).

I should mention I also like sci-fi but I haven't gotten a good story idea up and running pbp wise which was feasible (alot of my ideas tend to make better stories or comic books).

Even though I'm really strapped for time I'm considering writing up my own science fantasy D20 game. It would be a mix of Star Wars, Traveller, Star Trek, Babylon 5, Rifts, Star Wars & Red Star with some BOXM stuff thrown in to round it out.

You might want to consider renting some of the newer (90s) epsisodes of The Outer Limits or even the original and 80s Twilight Zone. I plundered a lot ideas from those eps for my scifi gaming.

I did write my own scifi setting once. Or more specifically the setting had two distinct settings inside it. The Earth, and all the rest of the Universe. The more scifi oriented setting was about humanity trying to survive in the galaxy without a homeplanet that was lost couple of decades before. Humanity was like a the scum of galaxy.

And then there was the post-apocalyptic setting of those humans who stayed on earth, trying to survive under a radioactive cloud that prevented all communications and scans to/from space. Very much like UFO: Enemy Unknown mixed with Fallout
