You could do SW and ST, but you'd die an awful lot if you tired to recreate the sort of things you see in that material. You might be better off using a more forgiving system (or adding "hero point" mechanics to traveller).Traveller is good if you like your gaming somewhere on the spectrum from Firefly to Alien (not Aliens).In traveller, you might start out playing a 34 year old Marine 4/Rogue 2 character who just mustered out. Those guards you're trying to get past are probably 34 year old Army 4/Mercenary 2 types. Sure you rolled 4d6-drop-lowest and they got 10s, but then it's legal for them to wear body armour and carry automatic weapons. One burst will usually kill you. So consider your options carefully...</blockquote>
