Starships & Spacemen 2e IndieGoGo is live!

I don't know anything about S&S but this game seems to drive people nuts (in a good sense). What was so good about the original version? And in what ways can this game serve those who aren't fans of Star Trek?

It could be applied to any science fiction setting that had some structure to it...for example Space:1999(2099), Babylon 5, Battlestar Galactica, and even such as Firefly/Serenity.

An interesting alternative to Traveller, because it is a bit more focused.

And to be honest I suspect the strong interest is the compatibility with MF and LL.

Thank you to everyone who has pledged! I'm just going to iron out a few last minute things and get the playtest posted in the morning. I'll start getting everyone's screen name permission to get into the forum. Please post here or PM me if you've pledged.

Tried to PM you, but apparently I haven't been a message board member long enough to access that feature (I joined the board b/c I was directed to do so by the IndieGoGo page). I sent you an e-mail instead.

Really looking forward to this game.

Oh, and: first post. Heh.

Hi everyone! I've started adding people to the permissions to access the playtest forum. The instructions for getting the playtest draft are there.

If you have access you should see the playtest forum as a subforum to the Starships & Spacemen regular forum. I'm going to make a stick post for new people in this forum.

I want to double my pledge* for no other reason than the Random Encounters table beginning on page 64. You, sir, are a genius.

* I said I want to, not that I can afford to

One day, one-thousand dollars pledged. This is going to hit the goal quick-fast.

Crossing my fingers. It would be heartbreaking not to be able to publish this. Most of the work is done, just some last polishing and buying art, etc. But we're off to a great start and I'm pretty confident this is a solid game with a great flavor.

[rsaintjohn]

That's pretty great considering it's not even been pimped at RPGnet or RPG Geek yet. I know I'm going to plug it in a few places, I really want this to happen.
