Well what do you want out of the old school sci-fi? Sword and Planet? Hard and gritty? Trippy shit?

Three Rocketeers for the first, Diaspora for the second, Numenera for the third.

I'm currently working on making a game of 1930s-1950s Pulp Scifi vs Cthulhu in far flung space, using FATE

Gonna be honest, kinda just want to move away from gritty a little. Kinda want to get back to basics, see people trying to do stuff they dont really know how to do. I think people have better ideas that way.

Adventures and Modules are a big plus, do people still make those?

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.

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)

>>54458341
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.

>>54458334
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.

>>54457885
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?

Just stay away from the latest edition, and you're golden.

>>54464182

What's wrong with the latest edition?

>>54459044
Holy fuck it's Yzma.

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

Right?

>>54459851
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?

>>54458278
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.

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.

>>54468902
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.

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

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