Ya, I'd take anything in the hard to space opera range. (Just no more pulp, please ... ) I hear rumors of a SW version of Blue Planet, and there was even talk of a SW Terran Trade Authority at some point. I'd buy both of those in a heart beat.

OK, I admit...despite having enough settings to play with/in, I'd pick up a sci-fi setting. And an Arabian Nights setting.
Maybe both in a single setting...huh...
Drawing board, here I come! |

Thats only doable if if you have someone who can do a good Samuel L Jackson impersonation.

I don't think Mr Jackson would be good at playing Celopatra Brown or Coffee Jones or even one of the girls of F.A.N.Y.

I see You may not know it yet, But after the director of vampire trailer park declared me to be a Chicksplotation Master I am only allowed to write Chick action projects (tastefully done to inspire the next generation of nerdy girls)

The original Shaft film was released in 1971, but the setting is actually more late 60's. That's due a large part to the styles featured and the fact that Shaft used Black Panther members for some of his ops.
For anyone looking for some possible source material for such a setting, there's 'Solid! The d20 Blaxploitation Experience' by Wingnut Games and Green Ronin's 'Damnation Decade'. They're both for D20 Modern/True20, but much of the content is generic enough to be used in a SW setting. |

Absolutely - Roundtree was the real deal. I'd give Jackson's portrayal of Shaft a d6 at best, but Roundtree's was a d10 - probably even a d12!  |

I'd go with something like girl from U.N.C.L.E. but call it F.A.N.Y. short for First Aid Nursing Yeomantry
Because in WW2 most of the female agents in the British SOE had the cover of being in F.A.N.Y. as it was against the law for a female soldier to be sent to combat but F.A.N.Y. was a civ org. So there familes thought they were off driving an ambulance some ware when they were in France spying or dieing in German prisons. Updated for the 70's

Well, I like space, and I like WWII, so a Savage Rocketship Empires kinda thing is foremost. I like exploring, so Indiana Jones/new planet type adventure would take precidence over combat, but it would still be there, hovering... (still trying to figure out a WWII style "tricorder, though... )
I've also been working on a WWII Stargate idea. Got a basic background, but no idea where to go with it yet.
I've loved Space: 1889 since its inception, so I am much happy we have that!

It is the size of a 50 pound back pack with extra cases of attachments and replacement vacuum tubes. It requires up to an hour of fiddly adjustment to take a reading. Results appear on rolls of ticker tape. The smallest guy in the squad is always picked to carry it
