Old school Sci-fi RPGs?

>>using FATE

I'm not interested.

That's right, opossum job. (that show has shit writing but some nice visuals)

Bumping for interest

Some friends and I got together and made an RPG from that old strategy game Battle tech, it's worked out pretty good so far.

Machinations of the Space Princess is a sci fi hack of Lamentations of the Flame Princess. Inspired by things like Flash Gordon but also the works found in Metal Hurlant.

It has a real cool set of race traits. Four customizable classes. Very old school in character progression.

...

Might need to check this out. Seems like legit.

I'm totes still creeping for some Adventures and Modules and stuff. (also I'm running out of Saturday morning 80's sci-fi cartoon chicks; which is apparently an something)

It started as savage worlds. But certain fiddly buts couldn't be reworked well enough for my tastes. I usually don't like FATE but it works well with the pulp flavor. You can have an aspect like Strong Handsome Jaw, or some such, that will instantly set up the idea of the character, & plays well with Cthulhu vibes of Monstrous Strength or Maddening Whispers.

I'm trying to make rules for piloting the Psionics & Rayguns now. I expect to be finished soon

There are a lot of reasons I don't like FATE, but I'll just say I'd rather adapt 40k rpg, GURPS, or even a d20 (mutants and masterminds maybe). Might just be my players though.

Well, that makes me think of Savage Worlds. Slipstream module book is pretty much the Flash Gordon pulp era space exploration. Clouds in space, bubble top suits, cheesy ray guns, one man rocket ships... the works.

spacemaster is the rolemaster system in a traveller-like universe. i like it since i don't mind rolemaster-tier crunch.

I wish there were more gender-flipped versions of that pic.

Gamma world 4th edition is pretty good

What about METAMORPHOSIS ALPHA or GAMMA WORLD?

...

Stars Without Number is pretty good.

Stars Without Number

>Mutant Chronicles is meh
What kind of heretic drivel is this? MC is awesome!
Just stay away from the latest edition, and you're golden.

What's wrong with the latest edition?

Holy fuck it's Yzma.

fag

You know Battletech:
1) started as a Traveller house game at FASA
2} has at least three editions of an RPG already

Right?

The fourth edition OF Gamma World, or the conversion from D&D4?

Both have their charms.

If it was written by Germans and illiterate Scots like the previous tries, it's a waste of paper, electrons, and time.

Germans and scots? It's swedish. From an era when they didn't care about being PC.

I kinda wanna suggest Battle Century G because of how easy it'd be to just replace robots with "star fighters" and have a dog fighting focused space game

Or would 70's/80's mecha be "old school" enough for you?

filename: bang, marry, kill

I'd probably pick the lizard because its the only one I haven't tried yet

they are all so deliciously smug

>not poltiically correct

So it's got "all cops are bastards" and "death to America" in big bold letters and it's instructing you on how to make bombs and telling you to kill ahead of state/CEO, start mass protests and riots, spread banned revolutionary literature or something else highly illegal that'd get you in trouble with the government? Like genuinely?

If not, it's not "politically incorrect", it's just something being edgelordy that's totally not dangerous and is perfectly toeing the line of the status quo of society. You just say it's "politically incorrect" because it make you feel like a cool rebel for just being an asshole.

Dude, whatever drugs you're on aren't doing you any favours.

>If not, it's not "politically incorrect"
>You just say it's "politically incorrect" because it make you feel like a cool rebel for just being an asshole
But user, that literally describes the overwhelming majority of "politically incorrect" media. Do you have some sort of delusion that "politically incorrect" necessarily means it's good, or has a message? That's silly.

The point of old school sci-fi is that both men and women wear very little and sexily, unlike the bland uniforms and fish tubs that all current sci-fi pushed.

Starfinder is coming out soon. Dunno if is what you are looking for but is something.

Look at that woman grabbing that lizard titie

When did you fuck a catgirl?

By the time that the Mutant Chronicles RPG had been written, the Scottish division of Target Games had been created. And while the concept of Mutant Chronicles is clearly that of the HQ in Sweden, as seen in the credits for concepts, editors and art direction, the books were written by people with Anglo Saxon names, and most of the artwork was done by people from the UK (and Paolo Parente).

Buck Rogers in the 25th Century. Actually hard science, no artificial gravity, no forcefields, no aliens (gene tailored humans), ships are nuclear powered thermal with huge radiators, lasers are terrible while coilguns are standard, robots and AIs are everywhere.

I liked it, mostly because it wasn't what I expected.

Myriad Song is what I play Sundays. I like it

Being PC or not has nothing to do with why none of the MC RPGs have been good.

2 legit to quit suggestions

>Battle Century G
I'll look into it but my players are weebs and I want to do the jimmie rustle hustle.

If I wanted a list i'd go to Wikipedia.

I'm not really looking for post apoc and not really looking for gritty or cyber punk.

Just tell me you faves.

i know that ship!

That's because they are sure in their knowledge that they are the best iterations of their characters.

Salya is also best girl.

What is this from?

Read the thread.

The Filmation Flash Gordon cartoon. Be warned that the animation is 90% rotoscoping. Unless you're a fan of that.

also it's incomplete.

That's Newtypes for you.
