And I still say the Frogstar armor is the coolest thing ever.

I concur. It is *quite* cool.

Well, work on the Nova Wars setting is progressing, albiet slowly. Now, although the full PDF's will be pay (because of art costs and the like) there will still be a LOT of data on this thread.

From what I've heard from d20 Future gaming groups, the hardest part of it is justifying why the PC's have a spaceship. Now I thought I presented plenty of options before, but if anyone is having problems in that area, let me know.

One thig to look at, is the kind of adventures a party wants to do. One of the reasons I like this setting so much, is there is a LOT to do. From exploring new planets, meeting new races, exploring old ruins and discovering anceint plots, to total warfare and small spy action. There's even interstellar trading and smuggling.

If anyone has any requests on something they want to see, or want expanded/finished (with the exception of the spaceship creation rules, those are already being done, and are a massive project) just drop me a line here, and I'll do my best.

So, there's ben a lot of detail on the genocidal fascist state in the setting. Where are the rules and support for heroes?

Such as?

I've listed a few organizations, the fact that mercenary units are fairly large and powerful, corporations they can purchase from.

What kind of support do you want to see detailed?

Specific details on the ideologies, tactics and gear (mostly likely, refitted, I should think) of these groups.

I would like to see the completed stats of the cyborgs. (recon trooper, infantry trooper, planetary assault trooper etc.)

OK, which should I do first:

Starship rules, or cyborg rules?

As for the idealogies, I guess I can go back through, gather up the guilds and organizations I've placed in here already, and flesh them out further.

Personally I'd rather see starship rules first. With D20 Cyberscape coming out on Friday it fills my need for cybernetics (hopefully its full-borg rules won't suck). However nothing is coming out for starships/starship combat that I'm aware of (though I haven't checked out Blood and Space 2 yet).

I'll second the vote for Starships. In a Sci-FI setting such as Nova Wars, starships are an essential staple. Cyborgs are great too, but they are proverbial icing on the cake by comparison.
