[QUOTE="Jd Smith1, post: 8022221, member: 6998052"] So I'm looking into a future sci-fi campaign. I have the rules system, and initially it was going to be a modified Star Wars setting, but after watch the new SW TV series, that came to a screeching halt. I have no interest in Star Trek or any of it's spin-offs. Coriolis and Traveller are out. Cthulhutech is in the 'rob for scenarios' category. War Hammer 40k is just a bit too expansive in its reach for the moment, although it remains on my dream list. What my players and I love are gritty decaying star empire settings; we've done the Firefly and Fading Suns settings to death. Humans-only settings are fine. What I'm looking for is a well-developed, detailed sci-fi setting, preferable of an Empire or culture in grim decline. I already have rules. If nothing else, I will jam together bits and pieces and use the new Alien RPG star map, but I was hoping that the lesser lights of RPG writing had done the job for me. [/QUOTE]
