 March 13, 2011 - 8:49pm | I started this in the Core 4 project: http://www.starfrontiers.us/node/5073 thought I'd promote it as its a discussion on the details of Fromeltar system similar to the thread on Laco I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers! |
March 13, 2011 - 6:58pm | created a astro catalog which is basically the chart of frontier worlds from the AD book but added the missing listing for K'tsa-Kar and Kwadl-Kit its in the Port Loren Library project http://www.starfrontiers.us/node/5082 I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers! |
 March 10, 2011 - 5:08pm | I've been working on several guidebooks detailing animals and creatures for the frontier, and I found myself at a quandry about naming creatures for the books. This has always been one thing that's always given me problems. I can come up with descriptions and information about things without too much trouble but when it comes to naming a new creature I get a headache trying to come up with names.

March 6, 2011 - 4:26pm | I think we've all done this: changed, modified, re-tooled, re-written, converted, and even spilled coffee on the Crash on Volturnus module and its associated modules Shadow is famous for his running of the game from the point of view of the pirates, something that I thought was very cool.

March 4, 2011 - 5:15pm | How about an SF parallel adventure of a planet in rebellion against its dictator like what we have in Libya right now? Maybe the PCs are just employees caught in the middle and they are FORCED to pick sides or else they will all die? Are the rebels actually worse than the dictator? Call it "Dragged In" I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers! |
 March 4, 2011 - 2:05pm | I'm thinking about starting up (or attempting to restart) a "live" on-line campaign (via skype + OpenRPG or something similar) and was wondering if there would be any interest in actually playing this game instead of just talking about it  . We tried something like this in the past but it was very sporatic and didn't work out. And maybe it won't work out this time as well as I think the biggest hurdle is the fact that we sAd Astra Per Ardua!

February 28, 2011 - 11:07am | I was looking at some things in star Frontiers the other day, (doing research as always) and I began to see a few things that make me believe that TSR was using US history as its basis for the history of the Frontier. Now some of you might be a little sensitive to some of my thinking so I apologize in advance.

 February 25, 2011 - 9:14pm | SMKSensei and I are working on a Savage Worlds conversion for Star Frontiers (with help from various online sources). Some of the stuff can be used in your games, check this one out; Content of Savage Star Frontiers project Tough SmugglerTough Smuggler Homeworld: Madderly's StarRace: Human Gender: Male Rank: Novice PSA: Military Attributes: Agility d6, Smarts d4, Spirit d6, Strength d6, Vigor d8 Charisma: Pace: 6 Parry: 6 Toughness: 7 Skills: Driving d6, Fighting d8, Investigation d6, Pilot Scout-class d6, Repair Spaceships d4, Shooting d6, Stealth d6, Streetwise d4 Hindrances: Heroic Edges: Brawny, Quick (redraw low action cards) Languages: Pan-Galactic, Trade-Speak Gear: Civilian skeinsuit, Jump boots, Casual clothes, Laser pistol (off-brand), ID-Card, Backpack, Advanced chronochom (works like a droid phone) Role-Playing Tips You'll do anything for a credit. Well just about anything. You boast about making runs where everyone else gets caught. Your tough, most run or try to fast talk their way out of situations, you don't. Always try to make a few creds on the side, as long as it doesn't interfere with your current customer/employeer. Play this character is you like to brag, swindel and get the big payout. You'll make sure rivals know your the best. Something I would like to see in the webzine is "Role-playing Tips" for archetypes, pre-gens and other characters. :-) |
 February 25, 2011 - 9:24am | My idea: HS - 6, 3 engine count. What do you think of mounting 3 Atomics *and* 3 Ion engines? Atomics for standard ADF/MR, jumps, yada yada, while the Ion's would be used for stealthy applications. Just curious on the consensus. You can't argue with the invincibly ignorant. - William F.

February 24, 2011 - 6:16pm | In the d20 Conversions project I'm working on a Star Frontiers conversion to D&D 4e. I have a lot done already but need someone who is familiar with the system to bounce ideas off. If your that person either post here or PM me. I'm 80% done with the conversion, another 10% and it will be ready to play-test. The last 10% will be clean up work and re-thinking after the play-test. |
