Who Wants Some Science Fiction/Space Adventure Modules?

What system or setting really.

I think a fantasy-sci-fi for Eberron would be intriguing. Maybe something on one of the moons. Mm.

But normal sci fi isn't my thing. I do think there'd be a large market for it tho.

Actually, I am working on releasing said module in more than one system. I'm crazy, I know, but I'm not gonna stop being that way anytime soon.

How about D20 Future, Dawning Star,and Bulldogs! Maybe more, who knows?

All depends on my master plans.

:]
 

There was already an entire D&D sci-fi setting called Dragonstar from FFG. And except for some die hard fans people it failed miserably.
 





I'd be interested ... but would need to see a short free adventure first.

Sci-fi is really hard to do right, since you have to explain everything. I find that a lot less thinking goes on in sci-fi games that I've been in compared to fantasy games because all the players are at least somewhat familiar with medieval times, but just stare blankly because we don't know how a 26th-century computer program works. Less thinking, more skill checks :(

Then there's technology issues. D20 Future, IMO, failed utterly in attempting to balance these things. (DnD greatly overuses magic items, the equivalent of super-tech... but at least it has a way to limit them, too.) A setting like Firefly works much better than d20 Future, even though it wasn't designed for gaming, simply due to the lower tech level; the heroes use regular weapons, and their spaceship isn't even armed.
