I forgot to post this here:

while working with CD Projekt for the upcoming Cyberpunk 2077 videogame; Cyberpunk creator Mike Pondsmith decided to develop: ''the new edition of Cyberpunk pen and paper RPG game that would evolve the genre''.

I can't wait!

Hi folks,

I'm a bit burned out on GMing fantasy campaigns (3.5 and Pathfinder) for the last 6 years.

Looking for suggestions for a good Space/Scifi RPG system.

Hopefully something that's been play-tested and has lots of campaign resource books/pdfs.

I hear Star Wars Legacy is good.

Any Star Wars and non-Star Wars recommendations.

Links to any RPG suggestions would be great as well.

Thanks,

Vic

1)If you dont mind the crunchiness of the system I would propose Alternity.

I recently started playing and was fascinated by its uniqueness,especially considering how old it is now.
Even though its out of print,the various worldbooks/supplements etc are relatively easy to find.

Alternity

Let me see if I can think of other options..

2)I am still waiting for my rulebook to arrive so I cant personally comment on Aeon/Trinity, but you mentioned you wanted something that has plenty of sourcebooks and the people at White Wolf always put an amazing effort into their games.Also its supposedly more cinematic than other games and the best iteration of the old d10 system.

Trinity

3)Another option is D6 Space.Its a generic version of the Star Wars rpg by West End Games.I think you can download that for free or get the physical copy from amazon really cheap.

D6

If you are into niche worlds

4) Cthulhutech.The way they mix anime/mecha scifi settings with Lovecraft is interesting and the metaplot well done.The system is good for the use it has been designed for, but not the best for general scifi

5) If you are in for a more gritty scifi horror, from the same company the upcoming 'Void' is really well done.I can describe it as Alien meets Lovecraft.

I own and have played with their QSR book and it has all the rules you ll need to start until they start producing the other books.

Void

6) Finally if you dont mind a premade setting and aren't put off by Hardcore Science Fiction(that is science more than fiction)
my personal favorite is Blue Planet v2 by Fantasy Flight Games.Its mechanics system(called synergy) remains the best I ve seen.

Blue Planet

I own v2 books(which you can still find through ebay and other sites) but recently FASA bought the licence and printed a Revised Edition based on V2. Don't know if its better but I guess its even easier to get a hold of.

Hello everyone,

Its more generic and indie focused but we are open to anything, the main goal is discussion,reviewing and internet play etc(and other aspects of geekdom like crpgs,collectibles)

Brotherhood of Rpgs.

We aren't associated with any Community,Shop or Uni and its not done for profit

Feel free to join,

Cheers

It's like lord of the unholy dance..
That is an effective intimidation technique
That aside, this *is* a great cover
