 January 28, 2009 - 10:14pm | I'm gearing up for a new SF campaign (dusting the old books off after 20+ years), and I've been compiling a list of movies that help set the tone for SF. Some have definitely influenced SF as they have all of sci-fi: Star Wars and Star Trek. Although the SF setting is different from both, there are elements of both that are clear inspiration for SF. Others range from the bad (Metalstorm: the Destruction of Jared-Syn) to the great (Serenity/Firefly and Farscape). Here follows a list of movies and TV shows that I feel help influence SF specifically (at least in some small fashion): Long live the Frontier! |

Sontarans from the old Dr Who series (these guys took their military scout reports very seriously, had thick necks and a peculiar darting tongue mannerism) |
 January 7, 2009 - 7:43pm | I played this when I was a kid and wanted to play it again. I found your site, but, and sorry for this, there is another start frontiers site also. Is this the same game from the 80's? What is "remastered"? Is this a different game from the other site (http://starfrontiers.com/)? Thank you. |

A very happy New Years to you all. :) @}-,-`- "It is a joyful thing indeed to hold intimate converse with a man after one’s own heart, chatting without reserve about things of interest or the fleeting topics of the world; but such, alas, are few and far between." – Yoshida Kenko (1283-1350), [i]Tsurezure-Gusa (1340) |
