I would be very interested in this depending on the setting and what races are playable.

I'll try out Iren's game first and if I enjoy the PbP format, I'd be down to do some more.

Can I have a ship with a nice cockpit?

Why would you want women aboard your spaceship?

What if it's a generation ship?
Or she's a great mechanic? [que Firefly intro] Kaylee liked her engines hot and well lubricated.

It would likely be by the books regardless of what I go with.Lord of Riva wrote: ↑ March 24th, 2025, 14:52I'm up for anything. That said rule clarity would be cool

I have altered the setting. Pray I don't alter it any further.
No, you may not know. Yet.

Still working on the setting, but I updated the title.
Likely going to use an OSR rules system. Investigating Dungeon Crawl Classics, Old School Reference and Index Compilation, and Old School Essentials. But I'll check others too.

Will there be playable races besides humans? Will it be brainlet who hasn't played tabletop before friendly? Will you write that you're proud of me and that I'm cool?rusty_shackleford wrote: ↑ March 25th, 2025, 02:59Still working on the setting, but I updated the title.![]()

Leaning towards this because it's cool and has its own identity.

I suspect nobody will actually want to play as them. But maybe I'm wrong.
I poked gemini until I could get it to pop out a good image from a description of a character of an aberrant race I wrote for this setting I was going to give more information about aberrants, but hey, I'll keep it to myself.

Need to find my notes…

Are you kidding? You made a gaunt, probably AIDS-ridden elf pale skin and white hair and think Vergil wouldn't want to play as one?rusty_shackleford wrote: ↑ March 25th, 2025, 06:20I suspect nobody will actually want to play as them. But maybe I'm wrong.

I'm interested in either sci-fi or science fantasy, but not until there's a break in Iren's game.

What about that Journeyman system you yourself posted once. Once, but long ago.rusty_shackleford wrote: ↑ March 25th, 2025, 02:59Still working on the setting, but I updated the title.![]()
