There's Broncosaurus Rex, which is , uh, odd. Don't have it, but it's one I want to buy. Set in an alternative future.

There's a science fiction d20 game by a very small publisher whose name I can't remember. Direct mail only, IIRC.

Okay, I looked it up . Called Interstellar Journeys.

The Diomin people mentioned a Science Fiction game, Empire I think it was called, but dunno if it's still planned.

Homebrew sci-fi d20 here

about dozen classes, dozen races, dozen augmentations and mutations, semi-hard sci-fi i guess...

I am very interested in converting transhuman space into D20. I have little time to work on it. I wonder how much from traveller I can lift?

also are the EN world super rules adaptable enough for gentic engeneering or are they too "super-heroish"?

tangent?

Undead Pete, its definately no tangent if we are talking about possible Science Fiction settings that would be great for d20, or its own OGL game. The Nights Dawn Trilogy would be absolutely perfect for a game setting.

I haven't read Fallen Dragon yet, but I want to. Is it as detailed?

http://www.rpg.net/news+reviews/reviews/rev_3910.html has a review of a book that would be useful to anyone considering working on the Nights Dawn stuff: The Confederation Handbook
by Peter F. Hamilton.

Click to expand...

Well, it would be hard to be AS detailed since it's a stand-alone novel, but it is pretty durn detailed

The Fallen dragon universe is populated mainly by humans and almost completely run by corporations who have gone into colonization as an investment.

Unfortunately, the cost of the investments have far exceeded the return, causing the "need" for Asset-Realization Missions...or organized corporate piracy. With that comes guerrilla warfare, etc....

Very Cool

I always thought The Dragonriders of Pern would make an Interesting world to play in.

HI guys

You might want to check out Prometheus Rising. It's my new pdf d20 SciFi game, currently on sale at rpgnow. There's a lot of crunch in the rules, plenty of weapons, armor, feats, and starship design rules. This first book gives just a taste of the game's core setting, which will be expanded as time goes on.

You can check the game out here, and download a free "lite" version of the rules, showing how the game handles a couple of the classes.

I would love to get that game, but the only way I would be able to is if rpgnow takes orders my money orders or checks via snail mail. Do you know if they do?
