The Final Frontier - Inception & Discussion Thread
OK - is it time to start a whole new genre of RPG's?
Shall we be the principal crew members of an entire starship? Or just members of a small group acting as a landing party or on a special assignment?

Put me down as a maybe...I'm still reeling from the shock.
 I'd think you might be able to do a series of RPGs based on this, each one covering a mission or a crisis onboard ship.

Did you have the chance to talk to Spock about moving the RPG forum, Val? As long as it is in the Tolkien section, I'm not sure whether I can allow sci-fi RPG's here, be these changing times or no.

Well, that's that. No Trek RPG. Yay! (oops...did I say that out loud?
)We should archive this thread! For the memory...I only wish I had started a revolution sooner.

Sorry, prank is over. No more Star Trek in my Tolkien RPG-forum.
(Although it would have been... interesting to play one.) Nice idea, Val. Closing.
