 October 1, 2013 - 10:50pm | My question is why not introduce some new spaceships? These vessels were typically between a small yacht and up to frigate in size. The Assault Scout kind of fills this role but it is worth a discussion because other races may not use the Assault Scout. The Mhemne came up with the Patrol Ship for example. Below is some basic information. Please provide input. |
 September 18, 2013 - 6:03am | Steve Winter ran a Star Frontiers Game at these cons in 2012: http://www.howlingtower.com/2012/06/north-texas-rpg-con-or-bust.html?showComment=1379509087996#c4785361309387276171 http://www.howlingtower.com/2012/06/lessons-relearned-at-ntrpgcon.html These were small cons but if you had attended you could have sat in a game with Steve Winter, how cool is that? I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers! |
September 17, 2013 - 6:51pm | Ok so I've been reading a lot of post from this blogger and well he has good ideas: By carefully scanning and manipulating some pictures of Gary Gygax with maps in clear ascetate this guy may have recovered two levels of the original Castle Greyhawk. You decide but either way he's done a marvelous bit of detective work. http://randomwizard.blogspot.com/2013/07/enhanced-image-of-gary-map.html http://randomwizard.blogspot.com/2013/07/two-levels-of-real-castle-greyhawk.html I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers! |
September 17, 2013 - 6:33pm | I've been combing thru a series of post here: http://randomwizard.blogspot.com/2013/09/d30-day-17-question-animal.html The blogger talks about convergent evolution where in a continent had all its animals descend from a marsupial and instead of sheep you get a kangaroo and instead of wolves you got a thalycine [Tasmanian Tiger- now extinct, see video footage of last one in captivity in 1933]. I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers! |

 September 8, 2013 - 1:47pm | Hey Guys, I was wondering if anyone has ever used habbo.com for running a Star Frontiers game. If you are not familiar (with Habbo), you can make a free account and mess around with it. And you will notice that there are many rooms (even large ones) you can make for free, and or use already existing ones on most any genre. And, (THE BIG PLUS) since there's a pre-existing grid, I would think S.F. combat could happen there with out too much trouble or modification... |
September 8, 2013 - 4:16am | The New Drake Equation http://www.space.com/22648-drake-equation-alien-life-seager.html apparently small stars with tidally locked rocky planets in the goldilocks zone are potentially inhabitable and coming to a stellar neighborhood near you (as close as 13LY to Earth). http://www.space.com/22558-alien-life-water-red-dwarfs.html http://www.space.com/18790-habitable-exoplanets-catalog-photos.html I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers! |
September 7, 2013 - 2:30pm | Hi Guys, I'm new to this board and to Star Frontiers & tabletop RPG in General. Lately I am studying Star Frontiers as well as volumous Spelljammer with AD&D2ndED. I find them both pretty darn interesting; though attempting to learn SF & SJ both at the same time is messing with my head a bit... But there are so many cool ideas in both! Its a tough call... |
August 28, 2013 - 9:30pm | A.I. - thought I had seen the movie but turned out I had not. Wow that was some freaky stuff that hits the rotary air impeller. But then with Stanley Kubrick being the genius behind it before Spielberg completely took over I guess I shouldn't be that surprised by it being freaky. Of course its not strickly a Sci fi movie but rather a different kind of story altogether just told with sci fi trappings. I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers! |
 August 25, 2013 - 12:07pm | Here is an image of a sathar soldier ready for battle. I drew this up and colored it in with Manga Studio 4 and a Wacom Bamboo tablet. I tried to stay true to the old comic art style used in the SF rulebooks and modules. What do you think?  |
