Star Frontiers - Zebulon's Guide to the Frontier | PDF | 7.4 M

My gaming group never used this supplement. Well, that¡¯s
not entirely true.
The new races are a cool new addition to an already great
game. The new frontier detail was incredibly valuable. The
new gear was really cool after tiring of the old handful of
things to be found in the frontier. The skill system in the old
Star Frontiers game is built around solid frameworks that
didn¡¯t allow certain character concepts (I want to be a
stealthy assassin type, but don¡¯t give a hoot about analyzing
mineral samples!), so the different skill list seemed like an
interesting idea.
But we didn¡¯t like the modified game mechanic. It was good,
as it stood, but not for our sacred Star Frontiers. We liked
the way things worked already. We had house-ruled a few
things, and made decisions about how to handle this or that.
For us to do all that over again didn¡¯t wound like a very fun
idea.
Additionally, the new options, if implemented, made all the
other existing published data no longer compatible. For
example, what about the character statistics found in all
supplements and adventure modules? What skills to THEY
have?
So that is why I didn¡¯t convert the original book to these rules
and stick with them throughout. Since I liked the old rules, I
figured everyone did. I was wrong.
It turns out that as I distributed this file to friends and they
distributed it to theirs... people started asking for Zebulon¡¯s
Guide to the Frontier. Who am I to argue with the masses?
I¡¯ve seen Frankenstein too many times to ever want to anger
a mob.
So here it is, in its original glory, reformatted and organized
to make it more like today¡¯s role-playing games. As I worked
on this, I found that the new game mechanics are actually
very sound. I like them. Use them if you¡¯d prefer these, but
just like the original Star Frontiers, I¡¯ll only make rules and
supplements for public consumption that rely on the original
Star Frontiers game.
Enjoy,
