As for the rest, I will certainly check it out. I do enjoy the fact that something as complicated as Star Wars could be translated into tabletop. I nearly forgot about Cyberpunk, I only ever knew about it when 3.0 came out a decade ago, and didn't know anybody well enough to play it so it faded from my mind. Being somewhat of a more modern system, it might also work out well as frequently older systems often have serious design creep issues. You know, it's difficult to say exactly what I enjoy doing more, or perhaps what I'm greater in aptitude with. I've more of a creative and managerial background, and find myself designing by necessity rather than choice. I do love writing and crafting the various lore and rules that govern my baby, but at the same time it would be phenomenal to have a dedicated professional who can conjure designs and implementations for me to instead edit and guide.  It's better for me to provide my vision and set a plan and have a passionate staff produce my mental machinations. So having a balance as a designer and a publisher  is important, and in the end my goal is to complete my product and hand off the design chiefly to a trusted individual while I oversee new prospects, merely remaining as an executive overseer. Essentially I would create the first edition and then my direct role would come to an end as I then manage the environment surrounding the product - the marketing, the online communities, the licencing, et cetera. A good example is how Bethesda has a separate entity for publishing from the development house. My organisation would essentially be the same, we'd have a core group that develops a project to fruition, builds and nurtures a design team over time, then transfers the hat to them as we seek new ventures. I've heard quite a bit about Savage Worlds but not in terms of mechanics, I understand it is a popular game. I do thoroughly entertain the flexibility of having a fan licence to keep costs down until I decide to go commercial, as for certain I will wish to do so once the first edition is released. I appreciate all the comments, this is a passion project of mine and considering all viable avenues for where to go with my jewel is paramount of importance for myself and its own success and pleasure.Ody</blockquote>
