Star Frontiers

Head on over to the Evil DM’s blog, the link is over in my links, and check out his write up on Bill Logan’s work on bringing Star Frontiers back. Bill has even started a PDF magazine called the Star Frontiersman that should make any fan of the game happy.

I wonder how big the fan base there is for this game. Star Frontiers was one of those games my gaming group played some but just never caught on. I’m not sure why, I’ll have to go back and check the rules and adventures, maybe that will give me a reason. It just seems to me that as a group we were all sci-fi fans and a game set in space would appeal to us. One of those things that make you wonder why.
