[QUOTE="pming, post: 7723459, member: 45197"] Hiya! I'm 100% with you here, Bruce. I was just thinking about the use of the word "republishing" in the thread title. I was going to remark that...if it is an actual [I]republishing [/I]of the system, then I'm all for it. But then I thought about that and in about 2 seconds realised that would be stupid. Why? It's already republished as "Star Frontiers Remastered" ( [url]http://starfrontiersman.com[/url] ...upper right is the purple box-links to all the stuff ). You could (can?) even get POD versions of them all. I did that, in fact, buying all the StarFrontiersman fanzines as well as 6+ copies each of the Alpha Dawn and Knight Hawks books to give to my game group. So, yeah, they're gonna eff it up with trying to use the Fate system. (Sorry to all you Fate fans; I've read it and even tried playing it with my bro waaaay back when it was still free/developing...we felt too limited with too broad a stroke for determining things). Like Bruce here said, if they are going to rewrite the history, rejigger the races, rip out all the system stuff, and then just slap "Star Frontiers" on the cover, then you can count me as annoyed and against it. :mad: If they clean up some writing, reorganize the rules, pick and choose stuff from the StarFrontiersman (and, pay the contributors, obviously), but otherwise leave the core "d100" rules system intact... then HELL YEAH! I'm ALL for that! :lol: (I'm betting on the former... :( ). ^_^ Paul L. Ming [/QUOTE]
