The PDF version of the second edition of Starships and Spacemen is available in PDF from RPGNow. The second edition rules are compatible with Labyrinth Lord, which means they are basically compatible with all TSR editions of D&D, their clones, and similar games. Like the original version of Starships and Spacemen, the second edition is designed to loosely emulate the a very popular television series (either the original series or later versions). My only complaint is that the rules are not OGL. The rules are well worth the $6.45 price of the PDF.
Hm, so there are TNG-era elements in the new edition? That's terribly interesting, I've been looking for an affordable, simple Star Trek-esque RPG that wasn't exclusively tailored towards TOS-era (Not that I dislike TOS era, understand, but TNG and DS9 were on TV constantly when I was growing up.)
ReplyDeleteThat's what the cover blurb says. I'm not sure how much is TNG-era however as I have read so much ST (official and fanfic) over the years that it all blends together in my mind.
