A Frontiersman writes;
Hey¸ just wanted to say that after several years of perusing your site I finally talked my players into trying Star Frontiers Alpha Dawn (Remastered). I came up with a simple one or two night adventure where they played UPF Marines sent to investigate a loss of communications with a colony on the fringe. After much resistance (mainly to the system¸ they're used to D20) they really enjoyed it! My "rules lawyer" even said that he felt the rules made sense¸ and were simple to understand and play. I have been pushing for some time to try Star Frontiers again (I ran a campaign back in the 80's when this game was still pretty new)¸ but have always met with resistance due to it's: age¸ lack of detail¸ strange rules¸ etc¸ whatever. Now it looks like it's going to become a regular on game night¸ and I have you to thank for it! Keep up the good work. Thanks a lot; I really appreciate all your hard work.
I used to play Star Frontiers when I was a teen. I wanted to introduce my kids to it and was disappointed that Star Frontiers was out of print. Thank you for this project. Because of your efforts and those of the community my kids can enjoy this wonderful game.
