    Hey All,

    Was just reading through some of the Dragon articles, and they had some ships that were HS: 2 that had a Laser Cannon installed, and in the KH book, it's listed as MHS: 5.

    Did I miss something? Did I put Deuterium in my Ion Drive instead of Hydrogen?  No, wait, It's that cloud of space wasps I flew through.  I'm still picking those off of my windshield.

    Looking for an SF game.

    Personally, I like Medic/Gyrojet character, but, pretty adaptable to what the need may be.

    Drop me a line, can chat over lunch or something to see if you'd want me in your game.

    Thanks!

    So, has anyone done anything with races that were so old and so far in advance of us technologically back when we were still tadpoles in the goo?

    Organic Technology
    Psionic Interfaces
    AI Ships
    Void Motivators that do not require super-acceleration

    Basically, anything that makes our "Top of the Line" equipment look like a hand-cranked adding machine.

    Ok, maybe I'm blind, stupid, or just mentally deficient, but I can't find the module/information of Warriors of the White Light.

    Specifically, I'm trying to get the stats on the Pirate Corvette.  Anyone have a link, or a PDF of the document?  I liked the picture Smile

    Part of Zebulon's Guide Expanded project is discussing the Dralasite Creed and Yazirian Honor Code and Philosophy. I've included the yazirian portion here, you can view the creed in the CORE FOUR project.

    Content of CORE FOUR project

    Yazirian Honor Code and Philosophy

    Yazirians Honor Code

    Dieing without overcoming your life-enemy is dishonorable. 
    Morn the Disinherited, for they are wayward and pathless. 
    Respecting another brothers path is respecting your own.
    The needs of the clan outweigh the needs of the one. 
    The path to complete defeat is allowing a life-enemy sanction.
    Rituals are the blood that binds us together. 

    Yazirian Proverbs

    If you don't get the joke, its probably about you.
    Grumpiness is a virtue.
    Violence is the means to an end.
    Used with permission from Imperial Lord

    If you would like to discuss these topics, jump on over to the projects.

    Thinking about the Rim

    did a little research:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coalition_government

    But what would a coaltion government in the Rim look like?

    What sort of institutions would be associated with it?

    I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers!

    The Heavy Gyrojet Rifle in the Star Frontiersman magazine is now alive and well in today's time.

    I guess if it ain't broke, don't fix it, even waaaaaay in the future!

    Someone else mentioned as a curiosity why did TSR produce the 2001,2010 modules for Star Frontiers, and that started me thinking about how interesting it would be to see a version of Classic Star Trek (not next Generation, or the others) done using the limitation imposed by SF on technology, (no replicators, and maybe bap bins in shuttles allowing for teleportation between an orbiting Enterprise, and a shuttle on a planet's surface) Of course the ship's would look totally different since gravity would be dependant on the ship's engine.
