I have just started looking at the Leverage system, Cortex I guess. It seems like maybe it would work, alot of folks seem to have used it for Trek with success, but would require a bit of Re-themeing for use.

I've also been playing a ton more Starcraft 2 since the Protoss campaign is due out soon, that's a setting that needs some RP in. Found some decent books for that too.

I'm not sure I'd play either. Never been into Star Trek. What we need is a Dune game.

I'd play Star Trek, Star Wars, Elder Scrolls, Mass Effect or a pirate/buccaneer type of game.

We do have a nice Mass Effect game we made here, base set by Tet and Shurijo and updated by Haya and myself.

We need a good space opera game, and 40K really isn't that even if it does have soem space stuff.

I may try and use the book linked above. I have to look it over, after a lot of hunting on the web for the best system to use I've come to the conclusion there really isn't one! I'm going to look this one over, since it focuses on TNG and has been supported both by its publisher and community I'm going to give it a shot.

My thought is of course you are all Starfleet, which this system focuses on also. We shall see.

I totally don't have time for another game, but I'd love to try to get on board with another space opera/sci-fi game. The Starfleet officers/cadets/students or whatever story sounds great.

Does anyone have the Cortex Adventure System set of books? Its possible these might work just perfectly for the crunch bit of the system. Right now I think this is the part that will hold me back a bit from starting this game.

Hmmm, after further investigation into the LUG Start Trek TNG RPG I think we can just go with this.

Who is interested in this game again?

The book in question is located in the "Starfleet Academy Computer System" if you want to get it.

It goes by the file name "LUG25000_-_star_trek_tng_role_playing_game_-_ocr.pdf"
Additional files by the name of "LUG25002 tng_players_guide.pdf"

Additional LUG files may be found, please avoid any GM or Campaign Style files.
