Dream Settings (Publishers Take NOTE!)

Okay Folks

I don't publish game,s so i have no idea how tough or hassle ridden obtaining licenses for existing genre is. But as a longterm Roleplayer i know what i like and i know what i want.

So i ask you, what settings.be it from RP, novels, movies, TV series, anime.... or WHATEVER! would folks like to see one of their beloved Games manufacturer's obtain the license for and Produce.

My list would be as follows
1. Farscape (yup i know AEG is already making this, but it's meant as a HURRY UP Poke <g>)
2. Gamma World (This game deserves the D20 treatment, has been badly treated in the past, and should be resurrected PROPERLY)
3. Fallout D20 (no other PC game ever came close to matching the wonderful atmosphere and imagination of this world.. if i couldn;t have Gamma World as my P.A setting i would happily trade it for this...Fallout is ace).
4. Marvel Super Heroes (Holder of, besides a certain other companies system who shall remain nameless..but begins with "P" ;) the worst system ever from days gone by.but is none the less the premier Comic universe besides DC... and if any D20 supers system should break the "Cursed" mould it should be in providing this setting to the masses once more).
5. Babylon 5 (Well it would make an excellent Sci Fi setting... it really would.we all know it, most love it.... the Babylon Project was great for background and flavour.but it's system certainly never floated my boat.... for D20 however...WHOA).
6. Stargate SG-1 (Well as far as ideas go....it's begging for an RP game. hopping from world to world, central bad guys... endless possibilities..... seriously.....this is ideal RP concept material).
7. Dune (yes i know it was going to be made, but then got cut.... well as a avid Herbert fan..... Wizards SORT IT OUT! Nuff said)
8. Star Trek (again excellent sci-fi genre, ideal RP setting.... i know Decipher i think it is have done a system..a D6 system... but when i think of how it could be done for D20... a single dice system just doesn;t inspire me in the same way anymore).
9. Lord of the Rings (as Star Trek above.same company, same sentiments, same problem).
10. Earthdawn (seriously the similarities between the two games in some ways anyway is dramatic, but Earthdawns Barsaive, and the horrors and the whole history would make it a great D20 campaign setting... and considering the original earth dawn had perhaps the worst PR, and gamebook cover in the history of RPG's imo... it deserves the proper PR and positive treatment it should have recieved first time around).

anyway thats my list....what do you guys want to see?

As above plus
I want

Dark Angel - jessica Alba Fox TV show about a genetic engineered super soldier who escapes into a dark future
(I was thinking of using Spycraft rules and DnD races (modified for the Manticore mutants - eg Joshua goes from Dog-boy to Orc:))

Alvin MakerOrson Scott Cards alternate Early America where knacks and hexes and folk magic works

On Stranger Tides Tim Powers Voodoo and Bucaneers setting with Black Beard as major NPC villain.

Teenagers from out of Space
 


I want someone to do Babylon 5 d20 just so I can get a decent set of PSI rules, That is psi, not slimy psudo magic.

As for Stargate did you know the d6 version was never published and was released free on the internet by it's author John Tynes?

A decent Marvel Superheroes Game would be great. One that has a good system and is going to stay around for a long time.
I agree that Babylon 5 needs a decent system as well.
 

Buffy in d20. I know a lot of people like the system that its going on, but I have a thing against reading a bunch of rules on a new way to roll dice. Plus combat in Buffy is very d20ish - beat on each other with no real weakening, until the kill is made.

Besides, I recall the Watcher investigators asking Willow and Tara what level of witchcraft they had achieved.

Maybe I'll get CoC, with a bit of spycraft and roll my own.
 

I would definitely buy a "Song of Ice and Fire" d20 campaign setting! These George R. R. Martin books are some of the best fantasy literature I have read. It would make for a great low-magic, gritty setting.
